patton duty will depend upon the
situation in Europe and the nature
81 our international commitments.

Share the Ride
Crash Damages
Amaze Drivers

EAST DETROIT - Share-the-
ride drivers and riders are up in
the air today, as they consider
Sl7,500' damages awarded by a
Wayne County Circuit Court
jury to an East Detroit man in
jured en- route to work at the
Willow Run bomber plant.
Hundreds of calls have de-
luged the OPA offices, and the
share-the-ride plan has reputed-
ly been abandoned by a num-
Der of companies.
If a rider pays a definite
amount for transportation, un-
der the present law, the driver is
held liable If negligence is
proved in an accident. This re-
suited in Seneca r. Chambers,
273 East Elizabeth, Detroit, be-
ing ordered to pay $l7,500 to
Joel l. Kirk, 48, of East Detroit,
for leg injuries suffered en- route
to work.
But before deciding to aban-
don the share-the-ride plan. driv-
ers might ponder the OPA an
swer; If he gives up carrying
passengers. he must also forfeit
his supplementary gasoline al
lowance, and get to work the
best way he can.

Will Take IS Years
10 Rebuild Manila
Engineers Ashost at
jap Destruction

MANILA, March 6 - R) -
Military and civilian engineers
estimated that it will be more
than Is years before Manila can
hope to be the city she was be-
fore the battle. Some scars may
never disappear.
George E. Roster, veteran
Manila building engineer who
constructed many of the city's
famous structures, estimated the
rebuilding time at from 10 to Is
years, depending on how mucn
building mat rial can be
brought in before the war ends.
He said about 1000 square
blocks of Manila are utterly
destroyed, along with bridges,
the waterfront, power system
and much of the street railway.
Roster, basing his figures on
IAN extremely sketchy survey
estimated the loss from fire, de-
molition and Smelling at a bill
lion and a half pesos, or $780,
100000.
Some Army engineers have
estimated the loss as high as two
and a half billion pesos.
Roster said only six major
buildings in the main business
section north Of the Pasig rive:
can be repaired.
Other structures seem to be
salvageable, but heat damage to
the walls, particularly to earth
quake reinforcing, actua ! y
makes them untenable. The
value Of even the sal
buildings is greatly re-
duced, the engineer said.
