AS the fungi grows deeply, a

Suit for an injunction to prevent
the Office of Price Administration
from suspending the right of THE
Stables Restaurant" on Riverside
drive, to deal in rationed foods un-
der charges of having acquired
meat without surrending ration
points was filed in District Court
yesterday.
The suit was filed by Lees Ice
Cream, Inc. and Mrs. Jean
Richards Moran, described as man
ager of the corporations business
and owner of all but two shares of
its stock.
The suit says the plaintiffs" have
been barred from dealing in all
rationed meat so long as rationing
is in effect" by an OPA order
which had been scheduled to take
effect today. It also says that the
plaintiffs have been barred from
the use of all other rationed food
stuffs until an alleged default of
points for 1900 pounds of beet is
made good
Meanwhile, the OPA yesterday
agreed not to take any action
towards enforcement of the suspen-
sion before tomorrow, at which time
the plaintiffs in yesterdays suit will
seek temporary restraining order.
The suit says enforcement of the
order would mean a death SEN
tence" for the business of the plain
tiffs. The order, it is claimed, was
signed by "a youthful hearing COM
missioner of the OPA, after hear
ing where every constitutional right
of the plaintiff was ignored" The
suit also challenges the background

Despite the best cooperation in

Implications among the nations
armed forces have cut power and
speed in the current war, Secre-
tary Stimson told Congress today
in urging immediate approval of
the principle of unified command.
Actual unification should await
the end of the war, the secretary of
war said, but establishment OF the
principle would in itself promote
cohesion among the forces.
Any effort to make the physical
change of set-up while the shoot
ing is still going on, he added,
would be like trying to change
the engine of an airplane while
it is in flight
Backed by Lieut.. Gen. Joseph
T. McNarney, Stimson testified be-
fore the special House Committee
on postwar military policy, mem
bers of which have indicated over
whelming sentiment for a single
command.
The blueprint for the single De-
partment of the armed forces rec
commended by Stimson was outlin-
ed by General McNarney:
The overall organization would
be headed by a secretary for the
armed forces, aided by undersec-
retaries for the army, the navy
and the air forces and the head
of common supply service; mill
tary strategy and budgetary rec
ommendations would be in the
hands of a joint board headed by
a chief of staff and including chiefs
for the army, the navy and the
air forces, with a subordinate oftl'
Ger in charge of common supply
service.
Experiences of the present war
Stimson told the committee, have
left the unacceptable" conclusion
that simplification is necessary 1
our nation is adequately and mos
effectively to carry on its wars IN
der modern conditions.
