Predictions On Auto
Tires Avoided By OPO

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2l-A-
The office Of Price Administra-
ton. which has indicated some
"A" motorists may get new tires
early next year. avoids any nat
predictions in a new study OF pros
poets just completed.
The survey, it was learned TO-
day, implicitly keeps alive the pos
sibility Of tires by next spring or
perhaps earlier, but points out a
number of uncertainties which
may delay broadening the present
eligibility list until later IN ls4o'
Two of the biggest ''if's" set forth
are future tire ration quotas,
which are dependent on produc'
ton, and the current huge back
log Of applications for castings
from "B" and CO.. drivers.

FREE INFORMATION
URGED BY COOPER

CHICAGO, Oct. a. Up Kent
Cooper, executive director of the
Associated Press, asserted today
that an 'unhindered flow of infor-
nation was necessary to preserve
the postwar peace.
He told the Nation Editorial as
socication none Of the world or
CARNATIONS or systems now being
discussed for the peace to come
can possibly succeed unless the
first basic step is taken to assure
unhindered flow Of information"
At conclusion of his talk the Ed
itorial associations advisory coun-
Gil adopted a resolution expressing
its profound appreciation of the
great crusade waged'' by Cooper
'for the right Of all men to get,
send and publish the news" for
1.-The freedom Of the press, and
for the enlightenment Of the people
everywhere as a means Of perpet-
uating pace"
The council resolution also ex-
pressed it's "hope that there may
be sustained effort toward keep
ing the people aroused to the inn
portance to them of having the
peace conference adopt an inter-
national compact such as that sug-
gested'' in the resolution adopted
by congress Sept 81.
Cooper stated communities live
peacefully because the people OF
a community know each other and
that the world must learn to apply
the same principle on an interna.
tional scale.
Peace can only be attained by
short-circuiting self-seeking, preda-
tory governments through letting
the people of each nation really
know the peoples of other nations
through the medium of a world
wide free press and freedom oil
international news exchange" he
said.
IF government will only stapc
aside, with a beneficient attitud,
toward the effort, the principle o
community interest and under
standing can, through truthful
news exchange, ultimately com
true internationally. Then you vii
need neither pact nor military pow
er to enforce friendly relations i
international society"
Cooper said international con-
munication channels were lon
used, systematically and usual
clandestinely," not to inform tn
citizens of many countries abou
the truth, ''but to make them fea
and hate the peoples of other ne
, tons" To prevent that in the PEI
iod ahead, he added. there mus

be used. There isn't enough shad-

NEW YORK, Oct. 81. - A new

The Recreation sub-C Committee Of the State Post-War Planning Board, of which Willard 3. Rogers Is chair. man, released today c report show. ing the extent of recreation business in Connecticut and recommenda- tons for improvement of the states recreatlonal facilities in the post- war period.
 Pointing out the fact that the property investment for recreational property is 50 widely scattered that measurement is difficult, the report stated that in 50 Connecticut towns covered by Q special study the amount of such property totals 96o,. 00,000 This includes the assessed value of summer homes as well as resorts.
 The report of Mir. Rogers coHn- Inittee states that impartial outside agencies have estimated the rev- enue from recreational business in the state to be 976, ,000, GOO per year, and states that "a very considerable part of this revenue goes to others than the owners or operators of rec sort properties in the form of goods and services purchased from the es- tahliShed businesses in Connecticut communities.
 In estimating the amount of bus. iness that may be done by Connec- ticut in the recreational field after the war, the report points out that business from distant states will compensate for the loss of business from nearby areas aS travel facili- ties become available.

WAR AND PEACE
 SPEAKERS THEME
Rev. John s. Kennedy Con. cludes Lectures on Cur.
 rent Books

In discussing books dealing with war and peace Rev, John s. Ken nedy. associate editor of the Cath olic Transcript, said last night in his final lecture on current books that on these two important subjects the attitude on the war is personal, on the peace to come 1t is impersonal. He reminded his listeners that close attention to the subject of peace should be given, citing the Dumharton Oaks Conference as an example of something that should have been of vital in- terest to all. He said 1t, peace. means scandalously little to us,". The things most considered in the period following the war he said, will be the getting of a job. Other issues will have little importance to the general run of people and the returned soldier.
 Several well-known books written on the war were briefly sketched among them The Traveller Re- turns, a novel plot centered in a fantasy by Rex Warner: Tom Harmon's popular book Pilots Also Pray" which accentuates how the sol dier prays when danger beset him, the book having no particular liter ary distinction, but lively. earnest bok by the famous football star; When Johnny Comes Marching Home," by Dixon Wecter. which is a weighty book dealing with the con- version from war to peace, what happens when the soldier returns to civilian life, this being vastly im- portant theme, which poses many problems for the returning soldier. Many books on peace were listed by the speaker. among them Wood row Wilson" by Gerald Johnson, ''The Tyrants War and the Peoples Peace by Ferdinand Hermens, and many other books concerning Wil- son's part in the peace following World War I. Also mentioned was Unfinished Business by stephen Bonsal, and versailles Twenty Years After" by Thomas Bailey. ''The Road to Serfdom," by Fried rich Hayek was also mentioned by the speaker anw many encyclicals and pronouncements of the Popes which are valuable in their keen an- alysis of social conditions.
 Father Kennedy included many books of importance in considera- ton of peace problems. The present war and post-war period he said would not he the same as after the first World War. An important ques- ton of the day, he said ls 'sWlsat IS nussia Going To Dot" We do not
