DETROIT, March 16-R)-A

been shot in the head.
Miss Deloy was treated by a

it with all the fight l have in

On the other side of the pic

LETTERS Soys All

DETROIT, March l6-(P) -
There will be no breakdown in
the nations transportation ia
cilities, "if we all play ball" &C
cording to William M. LETTERS,
national rubber coordinator.
LETTERS began round of war
production factory visits today
after making two addresses yes
terday before the automobile
and rubber industries tire COM
mittee and the Detroit section,
Society of Automotive Engi-
neerS.
Both addresses were before
closed sessions, but in press
conference the rubber coordina-
tor asserted that "our tough
time is going to be during the
next year" and that it will be
"a year to Is months before we
know where we stand on syn
thetic production"
LETTERS urged program of
street and highway rehabilita-
ton by municipalities and states
where a great amount of dam
age has been done by alternate
freezes and thaws of 'pe-
culiar winter" These, he said,
had produced IAN unusual num-
Der of chuck holes" which are
running a lot of tires"
LETTERS said he saw no reason
to extend the ban on pleasure
driving into areas where there
is no gasoline shortage, but ad-
mitted that 1--WE may reach sit
uation where we will consider
confiscating the rubber from
cars which have been put in
storage"
LETTERS told newsmen that the
reclaimed rubber situation is
good. There is now on hand a
two year supply of scrap rub
Der, he said.
Officers of the ordnance de-
partment's tank automotive CEN
ter here told the rubber chief
yesterday of some of their prob
lens in providing rubber for
war materiel. Approximately
one-third of the nations rubber
output is used by arms manu-
facturers responsive to the tank
automotive center.
LETTERS was told of one type
of vehicle, equipped with IL
wheels that uses 331 pounds of
crude rubber alone. He learned
also of the armed services ex-
periences with synthetics, some
types of which are suitable for
use in Africa and not in Russia,
and vice versa
The ordnance officers also
related that large shipments of
used tires have been received
from North Africa, of which 70
percent have been reclaimed for
the nations stockpile.

Connally promised the spon-
sors, who planned to introduce
their proposal today, that it
would be given early considera-
ton by his committee, possibly
within two weeks.
That was satisfactory 10 the
authors, who asserted they want
ed mot only the Senate, but all
the people of the country to
study this resolution and give
their reaction"
Il think the people are deter
mined that we should take every
step necessary to avoid another
conflict such as the one in which
we are now engaged Burton
told reporters.
Senator Austin (R-Vt) hailed
the resolution as a notice to the
world the United States has
abandoned its position of isola-
tionism.
Wheeler. leader of a group of
Senators who bucked the Ad-
ministration's foreign policies
prior TO Pearl Harbor, warned
any effort to press the proposal
