Safeway Stores and Peoples Drug
Stores in those nearby Virginia areas
also are prepared to comply with
the regulations. A spokesman for
Safeway said, however. that those
stores may not be greatly inconven-
fenced because they usually close at
$50 pm. daily. Their refrigeration
circuits will not be affected by the
order.
Trains to Cut Service.
George B. Burrus, vice president
of Peoples Drug Stores, which op-
crates six stores in nearby Virginia
said that beginning today no lights
will be burned during the day
From pm. until closing time at 10
pm, he said, necessary lights will
be used in the stores. This will
amount to weekly use of only 81
hours Of electricity a week.
Station WPIK plans to stay or
full schedule, providing its own
power with gasoline auxiliary
generator, Manager Howard Hayes
said today. The station goes on the
air at 5 am. and signs of at TIE
pm.
Mr.. Hayes said he did not know
whether radios will be permitted tt
operate if there is an official finding
later that gas or oil could not be
transported by coal-burning train,
to serve an auxiliary generator such
as WPIK has.
Two Stages Of Rationing.
The CPA proposed that rationine
of electricity be put in effect ir
these two stages:
l. Prohibition of electricity fol
advertising. display lighting, heat

ment Of commercial and industrial
usage on percentage or hours-of-
use basis.
2. Prohibition against all uses ex.

No Specific Army Orders.
As the sitter regulations went in
effect in Virginia, War Depart
ment spokesman said it has issued
no specific orders regarding Use OF
its electric power generators in this
area for emergency civilian use.
All surplus generators, it was ex-
planned, are under the jurisdiction
Of the War Assets Corp. Those re-
strained by the Army must be used
for military purposes unless released
for outside emergency purposes by
the chief of the Corps of Engineers

The board expressed the belief

ever, the Commissioners have re-
celved complaints and are planning
further conferences with spokesmen
for concerned groups, he said. For
this reason, he added, the Commits
sioners are willing to withdraw their
opposition.
When Chairman Healy asked
what alternatives the Commissioners
might propose to the Barry bill,
Corporation Counsel Vernon E.
West suggested a new bill be drawn
which would give Rent Administra-
tor Robert F. Cogswell authority to
consider and act on individual COM
plants. He suggested this as a
much simpler system than to order
the administrator to make a COM
prehensive survey of all business
rentals in the District.
DR.. Joseph S. Wall, speaking for
the District Medical Society, said
that not only had physicians rents
been increased, but that evictions
had occurred. He said he had no
doubt many physicians have met
demands made by their landlords.
II necessary for the advice of the
committee, he said, the Medical So
ciety could gather documentary evi-
dence OF heavy rent increase de-
mands.
j. M. Heiser, president of the busi-
nessmen's federation, said the COM
mercial rent situation also was
affecting physicians who are re-
turning to Washington from war
service. DR.. Wall confirmed this
and said he knew of one case where
a returning physician was unable to
find office space here and finally
took saIaried position and left the
city.
Tells Of Rent Increases.
DR.. J. Ross Beal, said his landlord
had asked him to move in 30 days
saying rental was not the question
involved. DR.. Beal said he persuaded
the landlord to transfer him to an
other suite Of rooms in the same
building for which he paid $185 a
month though the space was smaller
His rent had been $3.50 a month
Some time later, his landlord trans
ferred him to third location in the
building having half the size of his
first quarters, the witness testified
and the rental went up to $285 q
month. Testimony regarding COM
mercial rent boosts also was given by
DR.. Charles w. Allen. who told OF
rentals increasing from $35 month
to $ll0 a month. and Harvey Rab-
bitt, an attorney. The latter said
he was faced with eviction although
he had rented law Office space in one
location for l6 years, had paid Sub

spent about $1,000 for improvements
in the space.

Prospects Are Better
For Easing Terms Of
European Armistices
BY the Assoeioted Press

PARIS, May 9.-Prospects for
adoption of an American proposal to
case armistice terms for Europe's
VanquiShed nations improved today
as the Foreign Ministers Council
began its third week of conferences
amid an otherwise generally pessi-
mistic atmosphere.
On the agenda was Secretary of
State Byrnes' suggestion that the
Big -Four foreign ministers recog-
nize their failure to agree on vital
differences by shifting the task of
drafting peace treaties to a 81
nation conference, which some quar-
ters speculated might last six
months. > z
The deputy foreign ministers,
meanwhile, continued listing their
apparently complete disagreement
on most major points of the peace
treaty drafts in a balance sheet to
be presented to their chiefs later
In the day. The balance sheet was
called for following Mr.. Byrnes'
proposal to call a general European
peace conference in Paris June IS.
Cites Peace Farley Promise.
Mr.. Byrnes told the conferees yes
terday that the Ministers at Mos
cow last December promised the
world peace conference. Britain
and France gave prompt support
to Mr.. Byrnes' suggestion, but Russia
demurred. All three said they would
have to consult their governments.
The British, at first most strongly
opposed to Mr.. Byrnes' proposal to
tighten the armistice burden on the
defeated nations, were reported fall
ing in line as it became apparent
that the peace treaties could not
be written quickly. The British had
hoped for swift action on the
treaties to avoid changing armistice
terms.
Prier to the conference dispatches
from Moscow said Russia had no
objections to arnistice revisions and
French sources said France would
support Mr.. Byrnes, who was said
to be ready to press the issue.
The question of Italian reparations
which brought about the split yes
terday leading to Mr.. Byrnes peace
conference proposal-received fur
ther attention today when repre-
sentatives of the United States and
Britain suggested that Italys rep
arations payments come from the
beaten country's foreign assets and
surplus wartime industrial equip
ment only.
Russia has demanded that repara-
tions payments-totaling $300,0O0,-
600, with third to the Soviet Union
and the remainder to Greece, Yugo-
slavia and Albania-come from cur
rent production.

WARSAW, May 3.-(By Wireless)
-Delayed There is considerably
more freedom in Poland than one
would expect to find, coming from
the West.
For the time being, at least, Rus
sia is allowing the Poles much more
freedom than she does her own
people.
First, the Red army is not numer-
Gus nor conspicuous and is we'll

maintain communication lines
across Poland to their occupation
zone in Germany. as we'll as to
Polish coal districts near Katowice,
and also keep military establish
ments at Polish Baltic ports which
they are using.
The number of Soviet troops in
Poland, today certainly does not ex-
ceed 500, 900, and 350, 900 would prob
ably be more accurate figure.
Withdrawing Troops in Poland.
Present indications are that the
Soviet Union is withdrawing troops
from Poland rather than increas-
ing them. During the war, the
gauge of several railway lines across
Poland was widened to enable Soviet
troops and supply trains to enter
the country from the East.
With the exception of one line to
the Katowice coal fields and another
to the Russian zone in Germany,
these railway lines are now being
restored to Poland's standard
European railway gauge. All this
evidence seems to support the
Soviet contention that Russia does
not now plan to make Poland a
17th Soviet republic, but will allow
her measure of independence plus
certain ties to Western Europe.
The Red army in Poland is on
its best behavior. While there are
many well-substantiated stories of

when a certain amount OF criticism
Of the government was permitted
and when the Russians had not vel
learned the danger of talking freely
to foreigners.
Poles may freely circulate about
the country without travel permits
