That would be in addition to the 5 percent aside" they already control. Carter made the new offer Monday after being told federal allocation rules "put the gasoline where the cars are not." The common reaction of several governors queried was that they would have to wait until they see specifics of the pl5n before commenting on how it might work in their states. Carter planned to work today on details of a "bold and forceful program" to cut the nation's thirst for imported oil.

There also could be some replays of earlier proposals such as the ill-fated tax on automobiles that get poor mileage, which was part of a package Carter sent to Congress in 1977. Referring to that package The effect is Monday, White House press secretary Jody Powell said: "If those proposals had been accepted we would be in much a state's gasoline allocation from better shape than we are now." areas of relative plenty to those with that "It's a Schlesinger said to "Put the gasoline where the autbmobiles are?" Carter asked. "No what it does is to put the gasoline where the cars are not. Puts it in the rural areas where people are no longer going on weekends," Schlesinger said. Shortly afterward, Carter approved a change that gives governors power to authorize refiners to shift up to.

That distinction goes to one Mrs. P. F. A. Albee who went to woik for Mr.

and Mrs. D. H. McConnel out in California years ago. McConnd at age 16 sold books door to door.

But too many doors were closed in his face. He got a druggist friend to mix up a batch of perfume which he put into small vials and handed out as gifts to Ac women who answered his knock. Turned out the women wanted more of the perfume and less of the books. So he and his wife used a small room as headquarters of their new California Perfume Company and eventually hired Mrs. Albee to tap on doors.

Compelling thing, habit. Knew a man up in Seattle once who installed a wall safe behind a picture in his bedroom. He told me his wife liked it lot. She kept her same old sugar bowl in it. QUICKEST GROWTH Q.

This nuisance bid backfired. First, it got North and South to seven clubs. Left to themselves they might well have stopped at six. Then, it told South how to play the hand.

He ruffed a heart in dummy at trick two, came to his hand with a trump and stopped to plan how to continue against all four trumps in the East hand. He couldn't ruff out the last two little hearts. He would run out of his own trumps before East ran out. He could not cash the spade and diamond winners and then cross ruff. East would almost surely ruff the second spade.

There was another way to handle his problems. A spade-heart squeeze against West. So he ruffed a second heart. Then he cashed dummy's ace and king of diamonds to discard one spade. Led and overtook dummy's last trump.

Ran the rest of his trumps to come down to a three-card ending. Dummy held A-K-8 of spades. Declarer held of spades and the 10 of hearts. West could not keep three spades and a heart and just gave up. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.) (Do you have a question for the experts? Write "Ask the Experts, care of this newspaper.
