WASHINGTON, March %: ~
THE OPA tonight ordered a boost
in ration point values for pork ana
pork products, effective next Sun
day.
Increases also were ordered Tor
lard shortening, margarine, salad
and cookingoil .
Point values for all cuts OF beef
lamb. veal, and butter remain I'M
changed. Point values for mos1
cheeses also remain the same.
Price Administrator Chester
Bowles said the higher point values
for pork and pork products were
necessary to aid in getting better
distribution of the supply that is
available and because it is estl
mated that about five per cent
less pork will be available fol
rationing during April than during
March.
While less meat will be available
for civilians in the months ahead
Bowles said there is no cause fol
alarm
1.-THE figures will show" he com
mented, that while We'll have les!
meat during the rest OF the year
we will still have enough to NEE
all essential needs.
1.-THE War Food Administration
has estimated that there will be
about IL per cent less meat fol
civilians during the second quarter

OPA Raises Point Value
OfPork And By-products

than we had during the first three
months of this year.
'However, this decrease will be
felt very little during the April
rationing period. Later in the quar-
term May and June-there is
normally a sharp seasonal decline
in the production of meat and the
decrease will be felt to greater
extent that time than in April"
Increases for most pork cuts anc
pork products are one or two points
a pound. Center chops are advanc
ed from 10 to IL points; end chop:
from s to 7; ham slices from 10 tt
IL; loin roasts from Z to 8.
Sausages are advanced a poin
a pound, and there are increases O.
one to two points for most sau
sage products, meats in tin o.
glass containers and for many
ready-to-eat meats.
Lard, shortening, salad ant
cooking oils go up from 4 to
points a pound and margarine from
5 to points.
Bowles said it was necessary tt
establish higher point values TO-
fats and oils, except butter, be
cause of the reduced quantitie
that will be available in April ant
to make supplies more readil,
available.

Coal For Tobacco Curing

to coal used in either hand fired

said.

the San Francisco conference may
save us much trouble and disap-
pointment later on. For in relation
to the task of the conference, and
even more in relation to the ex-
pectations which have been allow
ed to build themselves up, the
preparation is so faulty that the
only prudent estimate is to say
that if a satisfactory result is
achieved it will have to be by
brilliant improvisation.
It now seems reasonable certain
that the climax of the European
war will have begun before and
will continue during the conference.
The heads of states and the for
eign ministers of all the principal
powers are bound to be preoccu-
pied in making the immediate,
momentous and urgent decisions
which are called for by the wholly
unprecedented conditions d r
which the war in Europe is COM
ing to it's end. Yet at that time
they are supposed to be in San
Francisco, or to have their minds
fixed on San Francisco, and TO
be celebrating upon the drafting
of charter which is to govern the
long future in international af-
fairs.
1t is obvious that Roosevelt,
Churchill, Stain, De Gaulle, Chi
ang Kai-shek, cannot settle down
to the business at San Francisco:
they have to be in Washington,
London, Moscow. Paris and
Chungking. at the seat of their gov
ernments where they are in hour
ly personal contact with their
principal advisers and lieutenants.
1t will not be much easier for the
foreign ministers to be away not
only from their own capital cities
but from any capital city where
there are embassies and the other
facilities that are needed in the
conduct of international affairs.
No matter how ingeniously COM
munication is arranged with. San
Francisco, it is difficult to believe
that men with the responsibility Of
Eden, Molotov, Bidault, would
dare at this time in the shaping
of events to absent themselves for
more than the briefest period
from their governments and their
departments, and to devote their
minds with the necessary leisure
and deliberation to writing the
charter.
Yet if the principal delegates
are not the men who have the
authority to reach decisions, the
work done at San Francisco will
have to be referred back to the
capitals, and re-examined in Dip
lomatic exchanges among the cap
itals.
Since the decisive military cam
paigns which are now launched
were determined at Yalta, it is
difficult to understand why the
United Nations conference was
fixed for San Francisco at the end
Of April. The peace schedule does
not fit the military timetable. The
military climax of the war calls
for political decisions which can
not be made at San Francisco;
the drafting of the charter requires
the attention of the very same
men who must make these politi-
cal decisions, and they cannot be
at San Francisco or at least they
cannot remain there long enough
to do the work as it should be
done.
The difficulty would be much
less if after the Dunbarton Oaks

BEAUTY HINTS
By NINA TEMPLE
Nose Beauty

You may enhance your beauty
fifty per cent by making your
nose lovely. And how Is this
done. you ask. Several ways,
First, the skin must be perfect
ly clear and free of all pimples,
dirt and discolorations. To be-
gin: Put layer of soap lather,
or just the softened soap on the
nose a might. Allow it to remain
until morning. Then wash 1t off
and pat it with witch hazel or
ice-water. The clear look of the
nose does something to the face
that even a clean face itself does
not accomplish. The soap softens
the dirt and dust and SCOT that
is in the pores and the ice tight
ems the pores and gives a smooth
alabaster surface. Try it.

DON'T SAY WE ARE UNcRATEFUL

Among the signs of omission, ingrati-
tude is the basest, and that applies to
community as we'll as an individual In
view of that fact, don t let it be said that
Key West, as a city, is ungrateful for all
the federal government has done here, be-
sides war activities, in the last IS years.
Yet something akin to ingratitude will
be chargeable to the city if it does not gran
a simple request, made by four naval Off
GERS: to repair that part of GrinIell street
extending from Eaton to Caroline, that is,
to the roadway that enters what we cali
Trumbo Island.
When we were in the doldrums, many
of us were put on relief, and then the CWA
came to town, built our sponge wharf, re-
paired the city hall, the county courthouse,
the Pumping station at the waterworks,
he staNdpipe ana constructed several new
treets on the south shore Of the island.
And when the CWA was discontinued
because it was considered too costly, along
anne the FERA, and many Of us were put
m the dole, or~what was the equivalent of
be dole. Later came the WPA, ard we
rot the sewer system, with its sewage re-
iuction plants. and other improvements
Millions OF dollars were funneled into
Key West, and, since the beginning of the
var, federal money has flowed continu-
cUsly into the town in many more millions
We are at the crest of the wave of pros
oerity today, and we have been put there
by federal money.
So, when the Navy, requests that a
block of roadway 1.-TWO short blocks in this
ms ance) be repaired, the city should not
hesitate a moment to arrange to have the
work done.
AS the improvement of roadway comes
under the authority of the Board Of Public
Works, council naturally referred the four
letters to the board.
Whatever else the board may do in
repairing roads, it should make it a point
to put the Grnnell street block. which is
one of the worst streets in the city, into
good condition. We not only owe it to the
federal government but we owe it also to
ourselves to rid our community of bumpty-
bump street like the block of Grinnell be-
tween Eaton and Caroline streets.
