and each year subsequent to that
time.

they'll draft me. 1 work for the

it doesn't make much difference. ;"
One of the few veterinarians
who registered early today was

that he expected to be in uniform
before any draft call comes.
CIV Official ALARMED"
An official at CIV. meanwhile,
said he was alarmed at the effect
of a large draft call, if lists of in
terms and resident doctors are de-
pleted. With shortages already
existing in many specialities. he
said, any men VINO leave will be
difficult to replace.
The registration centers were in
operation at Mount Alto. st. Eliza
beths, Doctors, Gallinger, Garfield,
Georgetown, George Washington,
Freedmen's, Sibley and Providence
Hospitals. Hospital employees in
each case are serving as registrars.
Actual induction of the profess
sional men will depend entirely on
the action of the specialists them
selves, since the draft law admit
tedly was passed to stimulate VOL
untary enlistment. Those who
volunteer will get an extra $10O a
month pay.
The Army already has issued a
draft call, to be used if neces-
sary. for the induction of 922
physicians. 500 dentists and 100
veterinarians before January Is.
The veterinarians for the most
part will serve as food inspectors.
At the same time, draft officials
will set another registration with
in the next three months for other
categories of medical men. The
law permits drafting those under
81 years of age.

New Curbs on Credit
Go Into Effect Today;
Auto Dealers Upset

New and tougher curbs on in
stallment buying went into effect
today for automobiles. televisior
sets and household appliances and
furniture.
Some retailers, particularly in
the automobile business, con-
tinued disgruntled at the Fed
eral Reserve Board, maintaining
the stiffened controls were un-
necessary.
The reserve board, on the other
hand, stood fast to its position
that the controls are necessary to
hold down imitation and stave of
price fixing.
Board Defends Move.
The board repeated it's state
ment made Friday when the con-
trolls were announced that the
curbs will help maintain the pur-
chasing value of the dollar.
1t answered the charge that re-
tailers had been given to under
stand there would be no change
in the regulations for some time.
1t said that Thomas B. McCabe,
chairman of the Board of Gov
Iernors of the reserve system, had
warned in a speech some days ago
in Boston that a change might
come any day.
Some automobile dealers who
were open for business yesterday
reported no great rush of buyers
to get in before the payof period
was reduced to IS months.
15-Month Limit.
The new controls require Is
month pay-off on television sets,
radios and other household ap-
pliances, with a down payment of
at least one-fourth. Formerly the
down payment was Is per cent
and the payof period 18 months.
For furniture and rugs the down
payment was raised from 10 to Is
per cent and the payoff period
also cut from 18 to Is months.
Another revision makes the new
terms applicable to purchases
costing $50 or more. This mini
mum figure formerly was 500.
No Rush Sunday.
Hill g. Tibbitts, Inc, Ford deal
ers, reported today that while
there was quite a rush on Satur-
day by customers wanting to buy
cars at the old terms, yesterday
the business was back to the
usual Sunday normal.

John J. Raskob Dies;
Leading IndustriaIist
Was Al Smith Backer
Special pispafeh TO The Sior

CENTREVILLE, Nd, October
16.-John j. Raskob, one time
power in Democratic politics and
one of the country's leading in
dustrialists, died of a heart attack
at his country estate near here
yesterday. He was II years old.
A requiem mass will be offered
at II am. Wednesday if his wife,
Mrs. Helena S. Raskob, arrives
by that time from Arizona. If not,
the mass probably will be delayed
pending her arrival.
Mr.. RaSkob brought a group
of guests from New York to his
3,000-acre estate on the Chester
River Friday and was stricken
about midnight Saturday. He
was dead before DR.. H. F. Mac
Pherson of Chestertown, Md,
arrived.
Pushed Installment Plan.
Former chairman of the Finance
Committee of General Motors,
long time associate of the Du
Points of Wilmington and backer
of AL Smith for the presidency,
Mr.. Raskob was credited with be-
ing the author of the plan whereby
automobile manufacturers would
finance car purchases on the in
stallment plan.
Although known for many years
in financial circles as the man
behind the growth of General
Motors, Mr.. Raskob gained his
Nation wide fame when he
stepped out of his industrialist
role in 1928 to help Al Smith in
his unsuccessful bid for the presi-
dency.
During World War I Mr..
Raskob was frequently in Wash
ington as a dollar-a- year man. He
became a charter member of the
Congressional Country Club. A
frequent visitor to the Pan Ameri-
can Union Building, he became so
impressed with it's beauty that he
had his architects duplicate it at
Claymont, Del.
Aided AL Smith.
He entered the political scene
in 1928 at the request of Al Smith
to become chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Committee and
heavy contributor to the party's
campaign funds.
Mr.. RaSkob resigned from his
General Motors posts temporarily
and devoted four years to building
up the party's national organiza-
ton.
Another highlight of Mr.. Ras-
kob's political career was the
break between Mr.. Smith and
Franklin D. Roosevelt, ending in
the latter's nomination at Chi
cago. Throughout this struggle,
Mr.. Raskob was reported to have
remained neutral.
Active in Liberty League.
However, Mr.. Raskob became
active in the Liberty League.
which opposed the reelection of
President Roosevelt in 1886.
In the 1910 Presidential cam
paign, Mr.. Raskob wore "Willkie
for President" button, but refused
to comment on why he wore the
emblem.
Although he continued to main
tain Offices in the Empire State
Building in New York, Mr.. Raskob
outwardly was inactive in politics
during his later years.
A native of Lockport. Mr.. Ras-
kob married Miss Helena Springer
Green of Wilmington, Del, in
1906 They had IL children, one
of whom, William, was killed in an
automobile accident in 1928.
After the sons death, the par
ents established a 81 million fund
for child welfare work which they
called "The Bill Raskob Founda-
| ton"
Mr.. Raskob, a Catholic, twice
was knighted by the Pope. He was
given the titles of Knight Com
mander of the Order of St. Greg
ory the Great and Knight OF
Malta.

he had an option of taking the
field goal or a first down on the
9-yard line, and he started back
to the bench. But Joe Tereshin-
ski, who was bumped by the over
Jealous Giant, protested to the
officials and won his point.
Right in Taking Penalty.
The Redskins undoubtedly were
right in taking the penalty. It
gave them three more chances to
score touchdown, with a down
left to try another field goal if
they failed. But Harry Gilmer was
thrown for a long loss and Dud-
ley's second kick was wide. The
team undoubtedly would have
been second-guessed by some,
however, if those three points had
been the difference between a vic
tory or a tie.
Redskins officials had another
problem dumped in their laps to-
day with the news that Brooklyn,
their farm club, and Bethlehem
lPa.) have been dropped from the
American League. Quarterback
Nick Sebek, End Bill Pearson,
Guard John De Laurentis and
Halfback Buddy Shoaf, all unsuc-
cessful candidates for the squad
this year, have been playing for
Brooklyn and there was a possibil-
| ity that at least Sebek would be
brought up later in the season.
What will happen now is con-
jectural.

|StengeI Signs
For 2 Years
With Yunks
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-Casey
Stengel, winner of two world base
ball championships in as many
years, was renired today as man
ager of the Yankees for two
years. The terms were not dis
closed. ...
There have been estimates his
salary would be anywhere from
$65 200 to 100000 a year.
Stengel came back to the big
leagues October IL, 1948, replacing
Bucky Harris on two-year con-
tract. He had just won pennant
for Oakland in the Pacific Coast
League.
Many said Casey was hired "for
laughs" but he had the last laugh
by leading his injury -riddled club
to the pennant on the last day
of the 1949 season. Then they
polished off Brooklyn in a five
game World Series.
Stengel's 1850 Yanks fought off
the challenges of Detroit, Boston
and Cleveland to win a second
straight flag in the final week.
New York blanked the Phils.
games to 0, for their sixth World
Series sweep and 18th champion
ship.
