Washington, d. c., Jan. 16.-No
social climbing or rabble -rousing
group is Maryland's delegation to
the 18th Congress.
If there are any orators or fire
eaters among them, they might
possibly be Dean Of the Delegation
Tommy D'Alesandro and fledgling
Congressman H. Street Baldwin Of
Baltimore County And to call the
latter fledgling doesn't do justice
% his hard-earned acumen gained
as 4 county political leader and as
2 smart behind-the-sceres man in
the State Legislature.
D'AlesandrO is now called Mr..
Mayor, and, as chairman of the
District of Columbia Committee, he
is entitled to the sObriquet. But a
sob, iQuet will not satisfy Tommy.
+ y wants the office too. And he

so. though a devout follower of
President Roosevelt, Tommy can
be expected to take a slap at bu-
reauracy along with the rest of
them. Cleaning up Baltimore gar
bag and cleaning up Washington

same with him.
Baldwin, who accepted the nom
nation as Governor at a recent
dinner, knows the temper of the
people back home and he can also
be counted on to go jOusting against
Federal red tape. And while he
is not a member of the House
Ways and Means Committee, you
can bank on him to take a crack
at such elaborate money getting
propositions as The Victor, Tax

By now the Office of Price Ad-
ministration's ban on pleasure driy
ing is old news but the circum-
stances which made necessary
this drastic curtailment of motor
travel are ever new and will be at
the root of many demands for sac
rifice throughout the war
American railroads have tank
cars sufficient only to haul a GER
tain amount of Oil or gasoline. Dur
ing the summer, this amount was
enough to meet rationed gasoline
demands and allow the accumula-
ton Of limited amount of fuel
oil.
Now that winter is here in earn
est, fuel oil demands, even in the
face of drastically curtailed ra-
tions and our limited number of
tank cars make it impossible to
supply both fuel oil and gasoline.
The ban on pleasure driving
means that oil heated homes will
receive little more oil than
otherwise would be possible; and
certainly we can spare a little
pleasure driving to keep American
homes and war plants warm enough
to sustain life and health
The definition of pleasure driv-
ing has been widely circulated by
OPA. Among the permissible
The Hagerstown globe., 1943-01-15
ON The HOME FRONT

types are shopping, procuring med
ioal attention, attending religious
services, wakes or funerals, and
trips directly related to the dri-
ver's occupation or profession,
necessary to the public welfare or
the war effort. Meeting an emer-
gency involving a threat to life,
health or property is also defined
as necessary travel.
New Fuel Oil Slash
AS part of the effort to assure a
continued oil supply for heating
homes and for essential purposes,
OPA has also cut by Is per cent
the oil rations of all structures
except those used for living quar-
ters.
This slash on top of the original
one-third cut means that affected
buildings will now be forced to
operate on about As per cent of
last years supply.
Oil heated schools may be fore
ed to conduct classes fewer days
a week. For that matter schools
could be closed for a period of 3
months with classes continued
through the summer.
Many other types of normal ac-
tivity will be forced to depart
from their usual peacetime sched-
ule of operatinos.

standardized Food Pricing
This OPA has taken steps to in
sure simplified and standardized
pricing of nine food commodities
by setting into motion , program
of uniform margins for "etailers
and wholesalers.
The nine foods are coffee, all
canned fish, cooking and salad oils
shortcomings, corn meal, canned cit
rus fruits and juices, evaporated
and condensed milk, maple syrup,
corn syrup, flour and flour mixes.
Under the plan, which is expect
ed to be in operation before spring,
ceiling prices on these foods will
be the same in all classes of stores
in any single locality.
Thus, all supermarkets will have
uniform ceiling prices in Home
vile. Because of their volume,
they operate on less margin and
their prices will be a little less
than other food chain stores. In
