to the Federation of Citizens AS
soclations was passed last night bv
the Summit Park Citizens Asso-

When that body meets.
During discussion on the motion
1t was asserted that the Fairfax VIII
lage Group has in its membership
only tenants of the Fairfax Village
Apartments. These persons, it was
contended, are not property owners
and action taken by them as a

0PA May Bar Higher Price
To Coal Mines Idle Sunday

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 9-The
regional OPA office wants anthra-
cite mines which fail to operate on
Sundays to be barred from receiving
any part of a new 45-cents-a-t ton
ceiling price increase.
A recommendation to that effect
has been sent to the national OPA
Office.
Regional officials said they were
disappointed that only 81 per cent
of the 10000 anthracite miners
headed Secretary Ickes' request for
full Sunday production this month
to relieve the hard coal shortage.
A regional spokesman commented
that the price rise was authorized
solely on the theory that all opera
tors would be paying double wages
for Sunday work
Spokesman for the industry,
meanwhile, said they were optimistic
that all collieries would operate on
the remaining Sundays this month.
