Petroleum Supplies
Next Winter 10 Be
Tight |ckes Warns
Situation on East Coast
Improved, But Doesn't
Help CiviIiun Outlook

Motorists and homeowners had
notice today that next winter s
petroleum supplies will be very
tight" and that shortages in some
types of coal will occur.
Secretary of Interior Ickes re-
ported yesterday that, although the
Atlantic seaboard petroleum supply
situation is better than at any time
since the war, it will not mean more
supplies for civilians.
1--WE must supply the military
forces with all the products they re-
quire to conduct their overseas
activities without worrying about
petroleum supplies" Mr.. Ickes de-
clared in the weekly East Coast
petroleum supply bulletin.
Must Build Civilian Stocks.
"We must build all civilian stocks
as high as possible, so that when
the real push begins overseas
which means that greater and
greater quantities of oil will be
diverted to the military-we will
have enough stocks on hand to carry
us through the next winter when
supplies will be very tight
Every available means of trans
portation is being used by the
petroleum industry to ship crude oil
and petroleum products into the
East Coast in anticipation of in
creasing demands from all quar-
ters," Mr.. Ickes said.
Commenting on coal supplies, Mr..
1ckes said production and require
ment trends clearly point to a
shortage of certain solid fuels for
domestic use next winter. At the
same time, he called on the retail
coal industry to shoulder its re-
sponsibilities in the program for
equitable distribution of coal sup
plies.
Area Committees Named.
In connection with the program,
Mr.. Ickes has appointed area ad-
visory committees whose job will be
Ito assist consumers who themselves
are unable to obtain solid fuels and
who are in emergency need"

In Postwar Jobs
ForWon1enSe
Many New Fields
Will Open Up,
Institute Told

OptlmlStlc predictions on postwar
opportunities for women in the field
Of housing, city planning and retail
ing were made today before a con-
ference of educational and business
leaders held at the Mayflower Hotel,
under auspices Of the Institute of
Women's Professional Relations.
A plea for well-trained personnel
to fill gaps in the teaching profess
sion, caused by large-scale shifts of
educators into other fields, also was
made.
Women architects and interior
decorators will be In great demand
during the housing boom antici-
pated after the war, according to
Seward Mott, director of the Land
Planning Division of the Federal
Housing Administration.
Training Necessary.
MIR. Mott said women will have
excellent opportunities In the field
OF city planning, but emphasized
that specialized training would be
necessary in this field.
A large number of positions in
retailing will be open to either men
or women after the war, 1t was fore
cast by Bishop Brown of the retail
training department of the Uni
versity of Pittsburgh. Mr.. Brown
predicted many married women now
in the field would quit after the
war and that a number of return
ing Servicemen previously employed
in retailing would not return to their
jobs.
DR.. Thomas G. Pullen, Maryland
State commissioner of education,
told the conference that large pro-
portion of teachers had left their
jobs for new opportunities with
higher salaries and he did not be-
Ieve 25 per cent of them would re-
turn. It will be four or five years
or more before "a dent will be
made in replacing those who have
left, he said.
Opportunities Outlined.
DR.. Allen w. Freeman, professor
OF public health administration at
Johns Hopkins University, said
there would be greater opportunity
for women in public health service
after the war.
Technical qualifications in such
fields as welfare and medicine will
be of more value than language
training in the work Of the United
Nations Relief and Rehabilitation
Administration, the conference was
told by Roy F. Hendrickson, deputy
director general of the UNRRA Bu-
reau OF Supply. Mr.. Hendrickson
said the organization has received
about 10000 applications for en-
ployment though at present time it
has q personnel of only a few hun
dred. A number of women are in
key positions and there is no policy
IN the organization that favors or
discriminates against women, he
said.
That women have won important
footholds in fields of chemistry.
aviation and radio, not open to them
before the war, was the opinion of
several speakers who addressed the
conference yesterday.
Declaring women have definitely
proved their ability in aircraft pro-
duction, r. Randall Irwin, assistant
to the vice president OF Lockheed
Aircraft Corp, asserted there was no
indication men would be given
treatment in postwar
policies. except In the
case of returning veterans. The rule
of equal pay for equal work has
always prevailed in the aircraft
industry, he added.

Packard Expects
to Double Former
Peace Employment

DETROIT, Aug. 3 - up -
Packard Motor Car company
expects its post war employ
ment to total $4,000 workers or
more than twice the number
employed Immediately before
the war period and will aim at
csrproduction level Of 200,-
900 units annually, according
TO George T. Christopher, presi-
dent.
Addressing an employees
meeting last night at which 38
Packard workers were awarded
War Production Board certifi-
Gates and recognition for sugges-
tons to improve production of
aircraft and marine engines,
Christopher said that insofar as
the war effort permitted the
company was looking to the
post war problems.
Through the purchase Of a
Detroit factory, leasing and
other steps, he said, the COM
pany expects to have more than
100000 square feet of floor
space within the next few
months that can be devoted to
the preliminaries of peace time
car production.
He said the company expected
to continue making aircraft en-
gines after the war as well as
the Packard marine engine that
powers the Nays famed PIT
boats.
Emphasizing that no definite
date had yet been fixed for the
resumption of peace time car
production, he said Packard
probably would start with a
schedule of $4,000 cars a year,
finish the first post war year at
a rate of $4,000 units annual
ly and move on from there up
to at least 100000 a year.
Christopher said he believed
governmental control of car
production would continue for
about six months after the war.

War Secretary Says Aim ed Forces Resent Home
 Front SquabbIing

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Secre- tary of War Henry L. Stimson to- day asked Congress for National Service legislation, asserting that industrial unrest and lack of sense and patriotic responsibility" on the home front has aroused a strong feeling of resentment and injustice among men in the armed forces.
 Stimson told the Senate Military Committee, Tt will be tragic in- deed if the descontent and resent ment felt by our gallant soldiers on the fighting fronts burns deeply and testers in their hearts"
 In review of recent labor troub- les in the railroad, coal and steel industries, Stimson declared, Tt does not require a great imagina- tion to realize the effect these oc- currences have upon our troops"
 He said the armed forces "are beginning to feel they are being discriminated against"
 Stimson was to be followed later today by Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox, also accorded a hear ing on the Austin Wadsworth Na- tional Service Bill. The committee is showing no inclination to act.
 The House pigeonholed the legis- lAtion indefinitely yesterday.

 The chief character is destroyer captain-Captain Kinross played by Noel Coward himself, and the hero inc is the ship, HM.S. Torrin, on which he serves. The picture shows the ship being built and being launched; it shows her in action on many seas, doing her share at Dun- kirk, suffering damage and casu- alties, sometimes limping homeward, sometimes being lowed; and at last going down, guns blazing, off Crete But there is more to come.
