$4,000 Strive
To Sell ; More
War Bonds Each
Waller Pleads for
Greater Effort in
District Campaign

Fifty thousand volunteer War
Bond salesmen today began a
campaign to sell three more E
bonds each as their chairman,
Wilmer J. Waller, pleaded for
success in the tagging E bond
drive.
The quota of F and G bonds, $22,-
100000, already has been met, but
only $4,000, 900 Of the $4s, 900 900 E
bond quota has been sold. The VOL
unteers must sell about 81 600, 900 a
day to make the quota, Mr.. Waller
said.
Mrs. Howard G. Nichols, chairman
Of the women's division of the drive,
started the slogan, Sell three more
bonds" after Mr.. Waller had esti-
mated 100000 Washingtonians are
able to buy an extra 500 bond
These persons probably must be
asked to do so, however, Mr.. Waller
said, and that Is where energetic
and faithful volunteers come in"
Fear Of Failure Expressed.
"Unless our volunteers go to inter-
view the persons on their lists and
genuinely attempt to bolster this E
bond schedule" Mr.. Waller said, I'VE
will never make quota in time"
Describing the next 10 days as the
Critical period" Mr.. Waller said:
Every possibility of a sale must
be fully explored and developed. No
stone must be left unturned in our
search for extra sales"
Movie Day Figures Expected.
Meanwhile, figures are expected to
be announced late today on the sales
on free movie day" Wednesday,
when ~ District theaters gave free
admittance to bond purchasers. So
many bonds were bought that the
issuing agents needed extra time to
straighten their records, it was ex-
planned.
Most Of the bonds were in $25
denominations, however, and OH
cials urged that theater booths con-
tinue to be patronized during the
rest of the drive to push up the total
sold through this medium.
The Office of Price Administration
held rally early today on Second
street between c and D S.W. Ad-
ministrator Chester Bowles spoke.
The D. c. Department of the
American Legion announced that
81 10000 of its $4,000, 900 quota has
been sold

Each time the artillery fire was
heard some one would break the
silence with a yell, Come on, Pat
ton One side would take it up, then
another, until finally all of us were
yelling Come on, Patton Then the
firing would die down and so would
our yelling. In little while the ar
tillery noise started again. a little
closer, and the yelling began again" "
Sergt. Bang described how he saw
the first American soldier come into
camp on May 2.
1T was exactly $40 pm. when he
came in," he recalled. He was a
tall, thin fellow alone in a jeep
Most Of us were walking around
camp listening to the artillery fire
when this jeep rolled up and the
American, captain, jumped out
and came running over. We didn't
get it at first and just stood there
Then some one let out yell and we
all blew our tops We wanted to
boost him on our shoulders, but he
wouldn't let us"
The local flyer said he observed
his 21st birthday on one of the rest
days during the march to. Braunau
Il had always looked forward to
that birthday, but I never expected
to spend it the way I did," he de-
clared.
1--WE managed to sneak away and
steal three sucking pigs from a
farmer nearby for the birthday cele-
bration," he recounted. I'VE roasted
the pigs and ate them, but they were
too young and we all got sick"
Sergt. Bang said that "A hours
after the Americans were liberated
the American Red Cross served
doughnuts and coffee and put On a
show.
"You should have seen the fellows
line up for the food" he said.

PrinceGeorges
Meeting Called
On Bus Routes
Federation Criticizes
Proposals to Change
Lines in County

The Prince Georges County Fed
Grafton Of Citizens Associations to-
day pushed plans to arrange q mass
meeting at which the Capital Tran
sit Co. would explain proposals to
reroute bus lines in the countys
suburban area. The federation de-
cided to organize q countrywide
civic and business organization COM
mittee to arrange for the meeting.
The decision to organize such a
group was taken at the federation's
meeting last night In the County
Service Building, Hyattsvile, after
several delegates strongly criticized
a proposal to reroute the East River
dale and Cheverly bus lines to the
Mount Rainier terminal via Cottage
City.
Plan Broached Before,
Mrs. Betty Tayman quoted a tram
lines would be routed to the terminal
SIT ofnc1al as saying that the two
via Barney street.
At the terminal, according to Mrs
Tayman, passengers would transfer
either to the Rhode Island avenue
streetcar line or to buses going to
Seventeenth and Pennsylvania Sc
via Bladensburg road.
Declaring that such a change is
not necessary, and would lenethen
the trip between East Riverdale and
|Cheverly and Fifteenth and H streets
NE. by at least is minutes, Luis
Granados, chairman of the County
Affairs Committee, asserted: This
Is the same plan the transit COM
pany tried to put through II years
ago and again five years ago. We
defeated it both times, but it may
go through this time unless we get
together and fight it."
Eight members of the Federation
were named tor represent the group
on the projected transportation COM
mittee. They are:
Mr.. Granados, Daniel M. Greene,
Fred w. Cast, Mrs. Genevieve Stew
art. Walter F. Mulligan, Federation
President; Mrs. Tayman, Louis Day
and Edward Rothard.
No Action on Citizenship.
The federation failed to take &C.
ton on a proposal by Mr.. Granados
that the Maryland citizenship OF
Count Rene de Chambrun, son-in-
law of Pierre Laval and a direct de-
scendant of Gen. Lafayette, be re.
voked.
Mr.. Greene, to whom the proposal
had been referred for study last
month, maintained that no action
was necessary since the count had
sworn allegiance to France and
therefore could not be an American
citizen.
He explained that the Maryland
statute of 1785. which conferred the
rights Of citizenship on Gen. La
fayette and his male heirs, was re-
pealed automatically when the State
ratified the Federal Constitution.
Although admitting that he had
told the inter-federation confer.
ence last month that he would re.
quest the federation to call for re.
peal Of the Maryland law in oues-
ton, Mr.. Greene said mis- statement
at that time was "a little rash" HI

Maryland 0PA Drops
Mills From Board After
Critical Speech
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, June 8.-The Mary
land Office Of Price Administration
has dropped Herman L. Mills, presi-
dent of the Hagerstown Chamber of
Commerce, from membership on
that towns ration board because he
publicly expressed an unsympa-
thetic stand and disapproval'' of the
OPA program.
Mr.. Mills, who also is president of
the Hagerstown Republican Club,
was not available for comment. The
State OPA said yesterday he had
not yet replied to the request for
his resignation or the letter advising
him of his removal from the board.
Dismissal of Mr.. Mills from the
board followed publication in the
Hagerstown papers on May Of
statements he had made criticizing
the OPA in an address before a pub
lie gathering. -
k Regulations Assailed. = =;
Il Newszstories of Mr.. Mills address
said he. had included in his ia TX
facts atm figures showing enorn,ous
quantities Of stored food that we're
spoiling and going to waste"
He was quoted as saying that
regulations and procedures of the
OPA were among reasons why COM
mercial travellers have hard Sled
ding" and that "bootlegging of food
today B worse than bootleeEif1g OF
liquor was in prohibition days"
The Hagerstown papers accounts
reported further that Mr.. Mills had
said "it Is time to get rid of the
OPA, if we want to get something
to eat in this country" and that he
urged people to write to their Rep
resentatives and Senator's protesting
many of the methods of OPA.
Notified of Dismissal.
The OPA Office said State Direc-
tor Leo H. Mccormick, who ap-
points board members, sent the
following message to Mr.. Mills on
May IA:
In view of your stand against
the OPA as reported by the Hagers-
town papers of May 4, with the con-
currence of the Hagerstown War
Price and Rationing Board, hereby
notify you that your services are not
longer desirable as a member of the
price panel of that board.
Naturally, every citizen had. the
right to voice his opinions and
that right is not questioned. How
ever, the Maryland State Office and
the Hagerstown board feel that
person who has publicly expressed
an unsympathetic stand and disap-
proval Of the price and rationing
programs could no longer be of
service to the program"

BA s. BURTON HEATH NEA Staff COrrespOdent

Chicago, July 26-The Pennsyl- vania Railroad-or, in any event some of its personnel-seemed great ly disturbed at having a reporter and photographer reco- - the con- ditions under which some 300 of- ficers and enlisted men rode from Camp Kilmer, N. J., to personnel centers in the Middle West.
 Railroad detectives and train personnel went out of their way to heckle NEA-Acme photographer Mike Alderman and me all the way from Harrisburg to Chicago. One de- tective, at Harrisburg, went so far as to threaten to break cameras and smash plates (plates haven't been used by newsmen for years) and ordered that no pictures be taken an order that was rejected and ig- nored.
 THREATS FAIL
 Army Public Relations Office at Camp Kilmer had not only &C., credited us, but had gone out of their way to introduce us to trans portation officers and to clear the way for our coverage of the troop train story. But neither our ex- planation or our credentials satis- fled the railroad detective who boarded the train at Harrisburg.
 Two MP's had come aboard with the railroader, evidently to witness his warning that we were not to take pictures until we reached Rockford, III. Alderman, a veteran camerman who served as, war photographer overseas, simply re- piled that he would continue to work unless Army PRO withdrew it's in- itial authorization.
 The detective failed to make good his threat either to smash the camera or throw us off the train, but he did send word ahead to every scheduled stop that two men didn't belong" were aboard the train. Thereafter, railroad dicks got aboard dutifully at every station, in futile effort to stop our picture taking.
 The servicemen with whom we were riding, with full approval of Army authorities, were amused at the railroaders' attitude and, after it had been exhibited long enough to prove that it was deliberate, ex- pressed the idea that the road must have something to hide.
 In fact, the railroads are very sensitive about the general criti- cism of their handling of return
