naming, gave Detroit its two
goal margin.
BY the way, the Joke almost
was on Abel. Like most persons
i'm Olympia. including some Of
the Red Wings, he hadn't
noticed that Broda had been re-
moved. With Babe Pratt crowd
ing him from the rear, Abel
heard one Of his mates shout:
"shoot. there's ITO one in the
net" He fired from about 60
feet out-and barely caught the
net. Hap Day explained later
he had removed BrOda with
about 80 seconds Of the game

Members OF the group are the first
men to be called under provisions of
a law passed by the 1913 General
Assembly, permitting the Parole
Board to release men from the State
Penltentiary or the State Reforma-
tory directly to the Army.
Until now. applicants have been
required to be on parole for a time,
and then to obtain a final discharge
from the Governor, before entering
the service.
Each of the men to be released
today has been checked carefully
by the board of parole, State selec-

Seventh Service Command at Oma-

This is not case of just releas-

Federal Workers Ask
Restaurant Prices Cut
Charge 1000 Increase
In Cost Of Meals Here

A demand that the District OPA
roll back restaurant prices under
the authority granted recently by
Price Administrator Brown was
voiced yesterday by the District
Council of the United Federal
Workers of America.
Petitions calling for immediate
action are to be circulated, it was
reported, and an attempt to obtain
10000 signatures of Government
employees is being made.
Daniel H Schwartz, president of
the council and national represent
alive Of the union, CLIO affiliate,
said that restaurant prices here
have risen more than 100 per cent
since the outbreak of the war.
Such an increase" he said. 'is
obviously not justified by increased
costs to restaurant proprietors and
hence constitutes profiteering of the
grossest sort right here in the Ma
tons Capital. 1t also constitutes
an almost unbearable strain on the
average Federal workers pocket
book"
Responsibility for this condition.
Mr.. Schwartz said, rested with the
District OPA and the New York
OPA regional office, inasmuch as the
regional office has been empowered
to place ceilings on restaurant
prices, on the recommendation of
local offices. Restaurants were sup
posed to have submitted menus or
price lists prevailing during the week
OF April to 10, and local OPA Of
fees may recommend to the regional
ONCE that prices be frozen at
rates prevailing during that period
The regional Office also is author
lied to roll back" prices if such
action is warranted.
An investigation and study of res
taurant prices is currently being
made by the District OPA.
