0s tns ASSOCIATED Press.
The Nays plans to double the
size Of the Naval Academy at An
napoliS will have to wait until Con-
gress approves its general postwar
training program.
The House Naval Affairs Com
mittee had planned to vote finally
today on the first step in this uro-
1ected Observation-Disclosures of
st. Johns College adjoining the
academy-but it delayed action.
Committee Chairman vinsoi1 said
no action will be taken on the con-
troversial st. Johns issue until a
decision is reached on whether 1t
VIII be necessary to expand the
Naval Academy" That will take at
least 10 days, he said.-
To Act on Training First.
Not until the committee has given
approval to the Nays postwar
training program, including naval
ROTC and the education of aviation
cadets, Mr.. Vinson said, will it act
on the Nays request for perrnis-
sion to acquire the 32-acre st,
Johns campus.
Department officials have told
both Senate and House fsaval At
fairs Committees that purchase of
st. Johns. the initial step in a pro-
posed $4,000, 900 expansion program
at the academy, is essential even
If no general expansion in training
is approved.
Some opposition to acquiring the
campus OF st. Johns, one Of the
Nations oldest colleges, has come
from proponents Of a second acad-
emy on the West Coast or else
where. Several bills to provide a
second academy have been offered
at this session Of Congress.
Want New Dormitory,
Navy spokesmen say the present
academy dormitory, Bancroft Hall,
is badly oyercrowded with the pres
ent midshipman corps of 5000. They
want the adjacent college campus
for a new dormitory and have pro-
posed increasing the schools size
to between 5000 and $500.
st. Johns officials, at several con-
gressional hearings, have contended
that other land is available for the
expansion, and have said they will
relinquish. the school voluntarily
only in the face of a formal dec
laration by both committees that
such action is essential to the ma
tional welfare.

WPB Priority Plan Ready
If Cool Emergency Arises

Plans for creation Of priori-

put into motion if and when a
coal emergency exists. were an
nounced today by the War Pro-
duction Board. No emergency
exists at the immediate moment,
it was stated by the Detroit Reg
ional War Production Board Of
flee, but a priority list designed
to channel coal to essential war
and civilian users during short
periods of emergency has been
formulated for possible future
use.
Coal supplies have been de-
creasing since the middle of
1914, Solid Fuels Administrator
Harold l.. Ickes has reported to
WPB, with an estimated defic-
iency of SIS million tons below
requirements expected by the
end of the year.
SPECIAL SERVICES
Certain types of war plants,
railroads, utilities, and hospitals
stand high on the list of those
who will receive priorities on
coal deliveries when their stocks
reach stated low point, which
varies according TO the type of
use. The list was prepared by
the War Production Board at the
request of the Solid Fuels Ad-
ministration because of local
coal shortages which have al
ready developed and which
threaten the urgent war and civ
ilan needs. 1t will be applied
only if local or national short
ages assume serious proportions,
John d. McGillis, WPB Region
al manager, said.
The list by classes is as fol-
lows:

extent necessary to prevent ir-
rcparable damage to equipment
which may result if a coal short

for space heating.
Glass 6: Same as Glass 5, if
rated AA-2, except schools and
other public buildings not di-
rectly required in the war eff
fort.
Glass 7: All others.
WPB stated there will be no
priorities within any class, and
that the number of classes which
can be projected will vary with
the seriousness of the local or
national shortage. In any type
of emergency, with allowance
made for delivery time, no de-
liveries will be made to consum-
crs who have sufficient supply
of coal to extend through the
expected period of emergency.
Concurrent with the WPB &C
ton, the Solid Fuels Administra-
ton outlined plan for imple-
ementing the priorities for coal
deliveries. Production Urgency
committees have been asked by
WPB to prepare a list of all crit
ical plants in their areas which
are eligible for Glass 4 ratings
