To an insurance man the “Prudential” conjurs up visions of the rock of Gibraltar—the company’s trade mark, and Keiley must have been near that fortress’ when he wrote the letter, which was without a postmark.

Sailed for England

Kelley, after primary indoctrination, was placed in headquarters of the fifth corps area ‘in Columbus, O. Later he spent some time at Ft. Custer, Mich., and in August of this year was sent with a headquarters company to England, from where he evidently embarked for the African coast. He’s added sleeve stripes to the maximum and now holds the highest non-commissioned rank possible, that of warrant officer.

Robert Stanley Hill, who, his parents say, “has become immune to army hardships” after more than two years in the service, sailed from an east coast embarkation port for Africa about two months ago. They haven’t heard from him since then. Now a corporal, Hill married the former Miss Gwendolyn Williams] of Indianapolis about a year ago. Previously in the motion picture business here with his father, he was posted at Ft. Knox and Camp Atterbury, before going abroad.

‘Very British’

Letters from Sergt. Samuel Richards White Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel R. White of 2953 “Talbot ave,, sound “very British” to his parents. So they surmise that he's been transferred from Ireland, where he previously was stationed, to London. White was never under the illusion that he was going in “just for a year,” his mother thinks. “He knew what he was up against,” his mother recalled, “and he didn't seem surprised or disappointed when the draft was extended.”

He's a clerk with an armored regiment, and his sister, Velma, intends to follow in his footsteps by joining the WAACs. Corp. James Robert McLeod may be directing traffic in North Ireland, his father believes. At any rate, that’s ‘what he specialized in while taking military police training at Ft. Knox. Corp.

EASTERN AREA

HAS OIL CRISIS

Gasoline and Fuel Supply Is Shorter; Tighter Rules Studied.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2 (U. P.).— The Eastern seaboard gasoline and fuel oil shortages continued acute today as rationing and supply authorities resumed conferences on action to meet the new critical situation. Experts of the office of Petroleum Administrator Harold L. Ickes and the office of price administration

were considering new means of tight- |

ening existing regulations for both gasoline and fuel oil to effect supply savings wherever possible, Officials said, however, no new “freeze” or rationing measures ‘were contemplated at the moment. Ickes’ office was expected to announce today petroleum quotas for

|January for each of the six zones

of the 17-state eastern emergency area. The quotas will be based on Ickes’ estimate of Dec. 21 that a total daily supply of 1,117,000 barrels will be available for the area.

Seek to Equalize Quotas

Officials indicated the new quotas will disclose no drastic change in this estimate, although there

might bel some modification of come

of the individual estimates for gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene and so forth. Specific supplies of oil were allocated for use in each of the six eastern zones under Ickes’ order of Dec. 21, which prohibited suppliers from withdrawing oil in excess of the quotas prescribed for each zone. The purpose of this order was to prevent inequities between the different zones. It was hoped the new year weekend might bring some relief at least to the gasoline situation, as happened at Christmas when a sharp decrease in driving enabled suppliers to replenish their de-

pleted stocks.

Fight Black Markets

A general tightening up of rationing and measures to crush black market operations in gasoline have been in effect about two weeks. Officials said there was no indication yet how successful they have proved, but added there was no indication of any increase in gasoline “bootlegging” of late. A similar problem of tightening up enforcement for fuel oil regulations now is being planned, offi¢ials said. “The public can be certain that we are going to get tougher all along the line,” a spokesman of Mr, Ickes’ office declared. Officials said there was no indication that fuel oil was being bootlegged on any appreciable scale since all sales, are controlled by the OPA. Among measures aimed as relieving the petroleum famine the war production board announced. higher preference ratings on delivery of materials required for the production, transportation, refining or marketing of petroleum. Mr, Ickes’ office said “there is no guarantee that East Coast oil shipments will be increased.”

2d Coffee Stamp Is Good Monday

COFFEE DRINKERS were advised today by Kenneth M. Kunkel, state OPA rationing officer, that stamp 27. from war ration book one—the first to be used since coffee rationing began on Nov. 29—will not be valid after midnight tomorrow. The next stamp-—No. 28—will be good for one pound of coffee for the five week period beginning at 12:01 a. m. Monday and ending at 12 p. m. Feb. 7. Mr. Kunkel said that adult consumers who had more than one pound of coffee on hand Nov. 28, 1942, should retain one stamp in their books for each extra pound. These stamps will be removed from war ration book one by registrars when consumers apply for war ration book two. Coffee stamps in the ration ‘books ‘of children whose age is listed as less than 15 years in war ration book one, cannot be used. These stamps must be left in the books and surrendered at the time war ration book two is
