the stripping Of Germany of all
plants and materials that could

sions, governing disarmament,
can be. made at a later date.
However,, it was said that If the
other three members of the Big
Four exclude Austria from the
provisions, he would agree to
action now.

favor the placing of structures on
Germany that would prevent her

Operations at Airport
Normal as Bus Lines
Bear Brunt Of Traffic

Most of the displaced" travel
burden in and out of Washington
seemed today to be falling on long
haul bus lines, as National Airport
spokesman said indications were for
another day of normal operations"
at the field.
railways and Greyhound bus
terminals were jammed last night
and this morning with persons
seeking space. A railways spokes-
man said that line had carried near
ly three times the normal number
of passengers to New York in the
"a hours preceding midnight last
night.
Greyhound traffic on all runs was
up an average of so per cent, as the
rush continued throughout the
night, reaching a peak at am
There was no sign of abatement this
morning
Air Travel as Usual.
Airlines, on the other hand, were
reported generally to be experiencing
no unusual demand for space, pos
sibly because the public believed air
reservations might be Cancelled to
permit planes to carry essential
priority freight.
Pennsylvania-Cen Airlines up
to 10 am. was able to take care of
every person standing by at the air
port for Pea passage. The company
said there had been an unusual
number of persons holding reserva-
tions who did not show up and that,
although on a normal week end it
is nearly impossible to get reserva-
tions, Pea at present could take care
of anybody wanting to 60 where its
planes new.
Yesterday Pea Washington flights
carried 800 passengers and on these
flights there was total of 239
empty seats.
1t looked this morning like nor
NAL day" for American Airlines. The
only unusual development, an official
said, was that a large number of
reservations were being made weeks
in advance by persons already think
ing about their vacations.
| A spokesman for United Air Lines
said that up to 9 am. today no
Washington passenger had been
bumped" by that line because of
freight space requirements. $50
far, it is operations as usual for
u.s." he said.
Commuters Offered Lifts.
The problems of Washington's
commuters, meanwhile, were some
what eased as the wartime custom
of voluntary ride sharing was OBJ
served on large scale. Washington
radio stations broadcasting informa-
ton on rides available reported they
were receiving more offers of rides
than requests for them. Enterpris-
ing cab drivers were said to be offer
ing to take passengers anywhere in
the United States.

throughout the Nations $4,000 post
Offices, according to Special Assist
ant Postmaster George E. Clifford
Mr.. Clifford said mot a single in
stance" of more than momentary
trouble had been reported to Wash
ington from anywhere in the
country.
Mr.. Burke said the Washington
office was interpreting long haul
mail as anything destined from
points beyond Pittsburgh to the
West, Charlotte, N. c., to the South
and including the New England
States and beyond to the north.
Places within these confines are
being served by truck and other
emergency means, he said.
Explains Embargo.
The Post Office fully recognizes
the serious consequences" of the
embargo, Mr.. Hannegan said, ex-
planning it was ordered in con-
formity with directives from ODT.
"We shall use such rail facilities
as continue to be available, and
planes, motor vehicles, interurban
electric lines and power boats" his
statement continued.
Field officials of the postal serv-
ice are authorized to contract with
out bidding for transportation of the
mails where necessary and avail
able"
Postal officials were directed to
accept mail of all classes wherever
normal transport facilities are avail
able. This applies, for instance, to
the 11,200 star" routes which are
served by truck, as we'll as the 66
interurban electric lines and 146
power boats which are the only mail
facilities between many communities
The ODT meanwhile announced
that it is authorizing the Bureau of
Motor Carriers of the Interstate
Commerce Commission to act as its
agent in granting permits to truck
lines to haul priority freight in cases
where the truck operators have not
been licensed previously to handle
the priority classes of goods. Per-
mits may be obtained from the
bureaus district Offices in major
cities, ODT said.

Center Market Busy.
New Center Market officials at
Fifth and K streets NV. said this
mornings buying crowd was some
what larger than normal and esti-
mated it at from 100 to 200 above
the ordinary. Shoppers started out
early and around 10 am. there were
some 500 persons in the market,
with the meat stands being particu-
larly popular
Efforts to unload or ice 7OO-odd
carloads of perishable foods standing
in Potomac Yards, Alexandria, were
being made today. but by late this
morning only II of IS carloads OF
bananas actually were being trans
ferred to trucks and storage
facilities.
H. w. Reed, manager of the Fruit
Growers Express, extensive rail
freighters of perishable fruits and
vegetables in the Washington area,
estimated 25 Of the banana cars
would be unloaded by tonight, but
added he did not know what would
happen from one minute to the
next"
Mr.. Reed said every effort" was
being made to ice the vast bulk of
the cars which could not be un-
loaded at present, due to the loca-
ton in the sprawling yards of a
large portion of the cars distant
from roads or unloading platforms
Trucks from as far as New York
and Philadelphia are being rushed
in to assist in unloading measures
Benning Yards Cleared.
The Benning freight yards were
reported practically cleared by late
yesterday. A Health Department
official said this morning that ap-
proximately 60 carloads of perish
ables already had been transferred
to the lexington yard by evening
and that the remaining Is were
being moved to storage points.
Three cars of hogs and one of cat.
tie which had arrived in the las
two days at the Potomac yard wer,

Airport Mail Handlers
Holding Own Despite
Increase in Bulk

Washington National Airport mail
handlers reported early today that
they were holding their own" in
the battle to move mail in and out
OF Washington as Government
strike emergency measures gener-
ally kept non-embargoed mail NOV
ing throughout the Nation.
Despite an enormous" increase in
the bulk of letters and small pack
ages brought on by the Govern
ment's order to commercial airlines
to carry all long distance frst-class
mail as well as regular air mail, air.
port officials said the mail was go
ing through"
AT 9 am, the weight of outgo-
Ing air mail at the terminal came
to 5000 pounds, with 5000 pounds
OF incoming communications already
on hand.
U. S. Orders Outlined.
Paramount among the Govern
ment steps designed to hold the Ma
tion's frayed communications sys-
tenn together were those which
ordered:
1. Flying all long distance first
class mail; and
2. Placing a partial embargo on
less urgent mail matter.
The ban on second, third and
fourth class mail-including news
papers and magazines-applies only
to mail ordinarily routed over rail-
roads now blocked by strike action
A 16-ounce limit was ordered on
first class and airmail by the Post
Office Department.
The Office of Defense Transporta-
tion took drastic measures, simul-
taneously, to make for the mails on
such trains as still are running.
Mail Given Priority.
The ODT ordered the railroads,
like the airlines, to refuse space to
passengers whenever this proves
necessary to make room for mail.
Previously the rail carriers were
required only to displace non
essential commodity cargoes in order
to carry food, medicines, mail and
other priority shipments.
Army. and Navy planes and civilian
airlines will share the burden of
flying the first-class mails, reported
Robert Ramspeck, ODT air traffic
director.
Trucks will continue to handle
shorter mail hauls, ne told reporters,
as they already are doing IN many
cases. The commercial airlines will
handle all Scent airmail as in
the past, Mr.. Ramspeck said, while
the military and civilian aircraft
will share the movement of ordinary
3-cent-an- ounce letters.
Postmaster General Hannegan, in
ordering the mail embargo, pleaded
that the public mail nothing that is
not essential"
This is no time for business
houses to put vast numbers of cir
culars into the mail at the first class
rate of postage" he said in a state
ment
Local Delivery Unaffected.
Mail for local delivery is not af-
fected by Mr.. Hannegan's order;
neither is mail originating and ad-
dressed to points within an area not
affected by the rail curtailments
such as mail normally handled by
tnterurban electric railways and
highway "star" routes.
City Postmaster Vincent Burke
said he had plenty of trucks to
handle mail locally and that Wash
ington's 40 branch postal stations
were experiencing no difficulty.
The picture was aholIt tho Same
