Old Law Requires
Name of Agency
On Federal Car

Any Government agency which
does not have its full name con-
Spicuously painted on the side Of
its vehicles is violating the law. So
states a United States statute
passed in 1904, and amended in 1905
Several Federal regulatory bureaus
interested in preventing alleged
misuse of Government cars have
requested that such markings be
made obligatory The Budget Bu-
reau has ordered all agencies to put
United States shield and Federal
tags on every vehicle. But there
has been difficulty in telling to
which agency a car belongs.
The ancient statute provides, in
part. as follows:
That no appropriation act for
Federal carriages and vehicles be
made unless such vehicles used for
official purposes have conSpicu-
ouSly painted thereon at all times
the full name of the executive de-
partment or other branch of the
public service to which the same
belong and in the service of which
the same are used"
Exemptions are provided in the
act for the President and certain
other officials in the executive
branch.

Visit by Dr.. Guoni
BY LEON PEARSON.

Alberto GUAM, Foreign Minister
and Vice President elect of Uruguay,
has told the State Department that
the power plant in Montevideo is
being fueled with corn and SUM-
flower seed, and he would like some
thing better.
He will get something better:
l. PrioritieS on the export of ma
chinery for the completion of a
hydroelectric plant at Uruguay.
2. Credits with which to pay for
the machinery.
3. Further credits for other public
works projects.
The prioritieS come first on the
list because priorities are more pre-
cious than gold.
The Foreign Minister has just
completed f1Ve-day stay in the
Capital. Uruguay has been a leader
in taking measures against the Axis.
In fact, it was DR.. GUAM himself, as
Uruguayan delegate to the Rio con-
ference a year ago, who introduced
the resolution calling for a break

Ry the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, Jan. 28-Six farm
families from sub-par Western
Maryland farms are scheduled to
move to the Eastern Shore tomor-
row, the start of possible mass
movement.
The Federal Government, through

asked to volunteer.
John D. Leatherman, State FSA

Kent and Queen Anne's County
farmers, on whose properties the
tranSplanted families will live, will
pay $40 toward the cost of moving
the people, their household furnish
1ngS and personal effects.
All those enlisted, Mr.. Leather
man said, had an average gross in
come of $3.50 in the 1910 census.
The FSA was assisted in the cam
paign by the Office of Fred B. Gam

Brings Suit 10 Block
Order
Says Evidence Produced
At Hearing FoiIed to
Support Charges

John H. SchWarZmann, opera
TOR OF a service station at Penn
SylVanla avenue and Thirteenth
street Sc, filed suit in District
Court today for a permanent in
junction restraining the Office of
Price Administration from en-
forcing a 15-day suspension Or
der against him. The order was
effective today.
Arguments on the appeal. orig
lnally scheduled for Motions Court
today, were postponed by Justice
James M. Proctor, pending further
consideration of Mr.. Schwarzmann's
complaint by OPA.
Justice Proctor revealed that an
application for a rehearing will be
placed before OPA before any Dis
trict Court action is taken.
Named defendants in the suit, first
of its kind in the District, are
Prentiss M. Brown, OPA admins
traitor, and Paul M OLeary, OPA
deputy administrator.
The complaint states that on No.
vember Is, 1912, an OPA inspector
took inventory of the gasoline on
hand in the storage tanks at Mr..
SchwarZmann' station and exam
ined the gasoline ration coupons on
the premises.
Lack of Proof Charged.
In November, the complaint states,
Mr.. SchWarZmann was notified that
he was charged with having violated
the provisions of Ration Order No
ga of OPA's gasoline rationing
regulations on the allegation that
he did unlawfully transfer gaso-
line with out obtaining gasoline cou-
pons in exchange"
The complaint further states that
at hearing of charges on Decem-
Der 5 the sole evidence presented by
the OPA in support of the charge
was ito the effect that an OPA in
vestigator found shortage in Mr..

that Mr.. Schwarzmann offered

when the war began. If this project,
the Rio Negro Hydroelectric Works,
could be completed, not only Monte
video but the entire country OF
Uruguay would be amply provided
With power.
Luis Giorgi, director of the project,
came to Washington last summer,
and on July % the Export Import
Bank agreed to extend a credit up
to $4,000 900 for purchase OF ma
terials in the United States to COM
plete the hydroelectric installations.
1t was agreed, however, that Uru-
quay would ask for only part OF this
equipment during the war.
Actually. however. not a penny
OF this credit has been drawn by
Uruguay. BY the time they got
around to completing contracts for
the equipment, their priorities had
become meaningless.
In addition to export priorities,
it is understood there will be new
credits for other projects. One of

Ration Setup Killed
OPA Representatives
Admit Strong Opposition
Prevents Move
BY j. b. ZATMAN

The Office of Price Administration
plan to place rationing in nearby
Maryland and Virginia under the
jurisdiction of the District OPA ap-
peared today to have been aban-
doned following a meeting yester-
day of Prince Georges and Mont
gomery Counties rationing officials
and OPA representatives.
The OPA representatives admitted
yesterday that they would have to
drop the plan because of the strong
opposition against it.
Those attending the conference
included Prince Georges County
Commissioners William A. Carson
and John H. Beau, Leonard H.
Burch, chairman of the Prince
Georges Ration Board: George Cook,
Sherman Hollingsworth and Merle
Hardy, members of the Prince
Georges Board, and julius P. Stad-
Ter, Montgomery County rationing
chairman.
Proposal Called Unfair.
Mr.. Carson told the OPA officials
that the present rationing setup in
the nearby counties could carry on
the work to the best advantage of
the residents and that the OPA pro-
poSal would be unfair" and EN-
tirely unsatisfactory.
In reply to suggestion that the
nearby areas would have a greater
opportunity to obtain fuel oil if they
were merged with the District, Mr..
Carson pointed out that dealers in
both Prince Georges and Montgom-
cry Counties get their oil direct
from Baltimore.
He also said that District fuel
Oil firms would not abandon deliv-
cries in the nearby counties be
cause they have to compete with
fuel Oil dealers in those areas and
they want to keep their customers
after the war"
Congressman Opposed.
Senators Tydings and Radcliffe and
Representatives Sasscer and Beall
have objected strongly to any move
to transfer rationing procedures in
nearby Maryland from the jurisdic-
ton Of the State Office of Price Ad-
ministration in Baltimore.
In addition, members OF the
Prince Georges Ration Board have
threatened to resign if such a
change is put into effect.
The Montgomery County COM
missioners, going on record against
the proposed merger, said that it
would increase the bureaucratic or
administrative" rating of the Dis
trict office and thus permit higher
