4 Clifford . Houser, OPA regional deputy administrator, Cleveland, O., aroused hopes that B and C cardholders also may receive more gasoline with the war's end in Ger-

Strickland, Indiana gdistrict director. James Deganan, of the price panel division, Washington, D.C. spoke at a dinner-meeting heid last night in the Marott hotel.
