The "same 15 floats which will ) tonight's parade were in the den of Momys on Dec. T, 1041, being made ready for the 1942 Mardi Gras. They have since gathered dust waiting for the war's end. Everything was ready for tonight's parade—the high point of the festivity. When the darkies hoist their gas’ torches and the strange procession begins to wind through the crowd-bordered streets, even the garage mules that pull the king's chariot will have assumed magic proportions. New Orleans, still over-crowded from the war years, was literally overflowing as the Mardi Gras season began. Mississippi gulf coast were filled with visitors who had long ago given up hope of obtaining reservations in the city itself. Restaurants were jammed to the straining point. Cafeteria lines spilled out into the streets.

OPA BLASTED AT - RENTAL MEETING

Nearly 90 irate citizens lambasted OPA at the Owners and Tenants league meeting last night in the Dearborn hotel. Owners present outnumbered tenants two to one. One tenant, an ex-G. I, said that many veterans hesitate to appear at such meetings because they feel “intimidated.” Though nothing concrete evolved from the session the thought generally expressed was that OPA rent control should be relaxed to the point where owners and tenants could come to a mutual price agreement on living quarters without government interference. Officers of the league are Claud E. Booth, president; Charles D. Long, vice president, and Mrs. N. M. Young, secretary-treasurer. The fifth meeting of the newly formed organization will be held next Wednesday at 8 p. m. in the Dearborn hotel, when by-laws will be drafted and passed and a board

of directors appointed.

Auto banditry and assault and battery counts have also been filed against the two gunmen in Bartholomew county court, Columbus.

Trooper Bennett is recovering in a Columbus hospital. He was shot four times on Road 31 Sunday. { Await Extradition Detective Captain Robert O'Neal said he had received assurance by phone from George Reid, acting U.’ 8. commissioner in Detroit, that the ' two men would be turned over to, Indiana state police provided extradition papers, signed this morning | by Gov.
