|WMC Still Working
On Interpretation Of
Midnight Curfew

The promised statement on policy
governing amusement places affect
ed by the midnight curfew was de-
layed by the War Manpower Com
mission today as it continued work
on interpretations of the order,
effective Monday.
Because Washington night clubs
also are restaurants under District
law, operators are confused over
whether they can continue in busi-
ness after midnight.
I'VE are trying hard to get pol
icy statement out before the curfew
goes into effect next Monday mid
night, but the more we get into this
matter of possible exemptions, the
more complicated it becomes" a
spokesman for VINO said.
"We may have to ask for patriotic
compliance across the board until
we can get the details worked out"
Appeals for Rulings Pour In.
Officials of VINO had stated earlier
tA1aS 1lOpCd W 4idNC DULL -
statement ready today.
Appeals for rulings as to whether
the closing ediet applies to specified
cases have been pouring in on VINO
ever since War Mobilization Direc-
tor Byrnes assigned to that agency
the job of enforcing and interpret
ing the ban.
Mr. Byrnes requested the midnight
curfew to save coal, transportation
and manpower. He made it apphc-
able to night clubs, bars and other
specific entertainment spots, both
public and private, and then added:
And similar enterprises"
That phrase has brought a flood
of whether bingo parties to lodge
meetings where beer is available are
covered by the ban.
Swing Shift Problem.
Mr.. Byrnes exempted restaurants
serving food exclusively and thereby
gave VINO a major headache.
There have been dozens of queries
whether places which served beer
as a sideline only are exempt. An
other version is whether restaurants
may stay open if they stop serving
drinks at midnight.
All of these questions are being
considered by the VINO committee,
together with another poser. How
about recreation spots for swing
shift war workers?
| While there is pressure on VINO
from Mr.. Byrnes' Office to make as
few exceptions as possible, the
swing-shift matter is causing the
agency no little embarrassment.
Early in the war VINO appealed to
theaters, bowling alleys and other
recreation places to remain open to
cater to late-shift workers. This
was done to induce signing up for
this generally unpopular shift.

Army Reported Ready
To Cancel 134-MiIIion

The Army Is about ready to
close down its Canadian oil de-
velopment and write of much of

said today.
War Department representatives
were reported to have told the Sem
ate War Investigating Committee
recently that unless the combined
chiefs Of staff overrule the move.
the Canol operation would be shut
down after resuryey of its poten-
tialities this spring.
A decline in the needs for petrol
cum supplies in Alaska probably
will be given as the immediate rea-
son for abandoning the development.
The committee has formally criti-
cized the project as a waste of
money, and Secretary of the Inte-
rior Ickes told Congress last year it
ought to be. junked now."
Committee members were said to
have made it plain that if the
War Department comes to Congress
for additional appropriations, as ii
would have to do to keep the con-
troversial development operating
they would fight the move.
Undersecretary of War Patterson
won APPROVAL of a $16,000,000 appro-
priation for the project last yeal
with an assertion that the joint
chiefs of staff had ruled its continu-
alton "a military necessity"
He said at that time it was idle tc

publican, of Michigan and some
other members had done, that 100
octane gasoline could be obtained
more cheaply on the Pacific Coast

Mr.. Patterson pointed to short
ages of fuel and tankers.
Senator Ferguson has contendec
that tankers now can be found te
