Mr. Taggart pointed out that in

{the application for an A card there

How to Get B Book

Those who may desire supplemental gas or gas above the basic A ration may obtain a form of application at their school building or if a plant employee, may deal with their plant transportation committee. On this form, which is R-535, application may be made for either a B or a C book. These books are for occupational mileage

above the 150 miles allowed in each A book. The B books and C books are tailored to meet the request of the applicant provided he gives satisfactory proof that his request is justified. The maximum mileage in'a B book is 470 miles for occupational use. The applicant getting that mileage would also have the 90 miles for non-occupational use allowed in his A book or a total of 560 miles.

The C book allows more than 470 miles a month, but it must be for occupational use. The C book is for 20 preferred classes of car owners as follows: Official government business, but not from home to office; transportation of U. S. mails; school officials traveling from school to school; persons carrying four or more pupils or teachers to and from school in the absence of alternative means of transportation; wholesale delivery of newspapers; transporting non-portable news reel equipment for dissemination of public information; licensed medical practitioners; licensed farm veterinarians; ministers, priests and rabbis; public health nurses, certain medical students and internes for making necessary calls; transportation of farm products and supplies; licensed embalmers, transporting and rewar workers; transportation of farm and marine workers, transporting armed forces; transporting war workers; construction, repair and maintenance; scrap dealers; religious practitioners, motorcycles for delivery of messenger service.

LASTING PEACE PLAN IS URGED

Indiana C. of C. President Asks Engineers’ Help in Post-War Period.

Times Special LAFAYETTE, Ind, Nov. 17— Speaking before senior engineers

Ruthenburg of Evansville, president

merce, ( mount problems face today, “to win the war, to win the peace, and to mold a new world that will be permanently peaceful and productive.” Mr. Ruthenburg, who is a member of the Purdue board of trustees, was introduced by Dean A. A. Potter of the school of engineering.

Stresses Peace Plans

“It seems vitally important that in time of war we must prepare for peace,” he said. We must not prepare for a temporary peace to be ended by another war even more disastrous than this, but this time our country must assume its obligations to take a leading role in the constructive reorganization of the world. , “We must emerge from this war so strong in the united will ‘of our people, so strong in terms of armament and manpower, that our planning for peace of the world can never be challenged by another nation or coalition of nations, and these things will not happen unless we plan definitely in days of war for permanent peace.”

striding out of the room. 3 The press just sat back and stared at one another. “Well, that’s the darndest interview I've ever had,” commented one veteran. A cub.was a bit frightened. She didn’t have a copy of Miss Perkin’s talk and she certainly hadn't gotten enough answers for a story. vise Unfortunately this reporter hadn’t gotten answers to hers either<—after spending a fourth of her working day just waiting. But she did have a copy of the speech. And the following are excerpts of what ‘Madame Perkins was “prepared” to say this morning.

Opposes Long Hours

“It has been found repeatedly that excessive hours are apparently causing time lost. and labor wastage which make the practice totally uneconomical.” Several government agencies, she pointed out, had joined in de-" claring that the seven-day week for individuals should be discouraged because it is injurious to health and efficiency, to production and to morale. “By the application and extension of the labor standards set up by law or regulation—most of which are elementary and bare minimum standards—far more can be added to our production than | by suspending all the so-called restrictions contained in labor laws.

Cites British Experiment

“Lacking a constryctive program we shall find, as the Britiish have found to their sorrow, that the human mechanism cdn be pushed just so far and then inexorably a decline in production sets in.” She discussed at some length the need for reducing minor ailments. . “We have learned over and over again, in connection with working conditions for production and efficiency, that on the industrial front our worst enemy as a cause of absenteeism. is the common cold and other minor ailments. The tell of days lost on account of minor illness is great and the list on account of injuries arising out of employment is staggering and far exceeds all other causes of the time lost.”

KAISER ASKS AGENCY T0° SPUR INVENTION

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 (U.P.) — Henry J. Kaiser, whose West coast yards have all but revolutionized the technology of shipbuilding, recommended before a congressional committee today that an independent government agency be created to harness the nation’s inventive genius for war. Kaiser was one of several witnesses scheduled to appear before congressional committees attacking the nation’s manpower and war management problems. Testifying before a senate military affairs subcommittee, Mr. Kaiser said the agency he envisaged should be non-political and endowed with power to license all inventions for the duration without compensation to their authors. He emphasized, however, that such a policy should be discontinued immediately after the war to avoid destruction of initiative.

OLDEST YANK PILOT WINS FLYING CROSS

LONDON, Nov. 17 (U. P.).—Staff Sergt. Merrill W. Gilger, 44, Los Angeles, Cal., believed to be the oldest combat member in United States army air forces in Europe, has been recommended for the distinguished flying cross, army headquarters announced today. Gilger, tail gunner in a flying fortress crew, recently shot down a Focke-Wulf 109.

BISHOP IS ADVANCED WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 (U. P.).— The apostolic delegation here announced today that Bishop Edward PF. Hoban, bishop of Rockford, Ill, has been named coadjutor bishop, with right of succession, to. the Most Rev. Archibishop Joseph Schrembs, bishop of Cleveland. Bishop Hoban also was assigned to

She stressed that reasonable hours, fair working conditions

essential in sustaining high pro- ° duction. “Our best work places are better lighted, better ventilated and more evenly heated than formerly. Improvements in these matters helped us to attain a leading industrial position in peacetime and progressive managements are aware that the same thing holds true in war.” She pointed out that a sustained effort to promote safe and healthful conditions of work is essential t6 the conservation and -effectiveness of manpower and that the labor department was embarking on a renewed program of studying working conditions and of advising employers on methods to increase output while diminishing accidents, diminishing strain and fa‘tigue and dissatisfaction.

Need for Skill Shown

“The present situation shows labor . officials the need to train men for skilled work. . . . The need for systematic apprentice training has been recognized by the unions but generally speaking achievements as a nation in this field had been inadequate until the war demand made strong, quick action necessary. Now we are training hundreds of thousands as apprentice mechanics. In times of labor surplus it was easy to overlook this need. . . . Today we are paying for our lack of foresight in employment problems arising out of a shortage of workers with an all-around apprentice training. At the end of the war, we may again hear that skilled workers are no longer needed and that apprenticeship is no longer necessary. But labor officials know better.”

Study Labor Problems

State labor law administrators and representatives of organized labor. in 40 states are here to discuss proposed labor legislation, labor problems and the operation of labor regulations in relation to the war effort. Most of the sessions will be devoted to informal discussion. An analysis ‘of legislative programs now being prepared for the 1943 legislature has a prominent place on the program.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. Nov. 17 (U. P.).—Two small boys saw an object at the same time as they walked along a Springfield street yesterday. Both dived for it, then tangled in a heated fist fight for possesion. Finally one walked off snapping the new found rubber band between his fingers.

CRITICIZE HIRING OF 1-A BY SHIPYARDS

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 17 (U.P). —Officials of four Philadelphia draft boards criticized today the

statement by Philadelphia navy yard officials that “skilled workmen will be hired even if tney are 1-A in the draft.” “It’s an invitation to 18-and-19-year-olds who are eligible for the draft to go down to the navy ward and hide out for the duration,” one board chairman said. Another official said that his board would ignore all requests for deferment if a draft-eligible workman had not been employed at the yard for a year and was not in the skilled labor class. .
