12 The Palladium-Hem and Sun-Telegram, Richmond, Friday, June 19, 1942 Eastern Autos Must Daily Market Quotations With Our Boys in the Service City News in Brief Ship Building Measure Goes to Senate Deaths and Funerals Wheat Prices Off at Chicago Mart CHICAGO. (AP) Wheat prices sagged almost 2 cents -a bushel at times Friday as the market weakened under weight of increased selling from professional and commercial interests. Traders said hedging sales associated with the new crop movement may have been responsible for some of the weakness while adverse news from Libya also attracted much attention. Receipts were: Wheat, 5 cars; corn 105, oats, 14. Wheat market closed 11 lie lower than Thursday, July $1,182 September $1.21 1.21J; corn, iic down, July 8686ic, September 8989ic; oats ilc off; rye, glc down; soybeans, li lc lower.

Stock Prices Close Easy NEW YORK. (AP) It was a case of a few special situations on the bull side of Friday's stock market, most recognized leaders drifting to moderately lower levels. The list was a bit shaky at the start as the war news remained unsatisfactory and many potential purchasers stood aside to await clarification of Prime Minister Churchill's surprise visit to the United States. The comforting angle of the market was that real selling pressure never appeared. Declines of fractions to a point or so ruled in the closing hour with dealings for the full proceedings approximating 275,000 shares.

Bonds were as spotty as stocks. Commodities backed away at the finish. At Chicago wheat was off 11 to 1J cents a bushel and corn was down 1 to cents. Carry Gas Stickers WASHINGTON. (AP) To nip any chiseling under the perma nent eastern gasoline rationing system starting July 19, every automobile will have to carry a colored sticker showing the type of rationing book held by its driver, the Office of Price Administration announced Friday.

Those holding the basic A cards will receive, at the time the cards are issued, a black sticker with a large printed on it in white and the words "gasoline ration" below. stickers will be green, stickers red, and stickers, for commercial vehicles, brown. Aluminum Drive Results Disappointing WASHINGTON. (AP) In the midst of the government's campaign to salvage scrap rubber, War Production board officials discovered Friday that the famous "pots-and-pans" aluminum collection drive last year turned up less than half of the metal they had expected. For months, it was learned, WPB has been attempting to obtain conclusive and final reports on success or failure of the one- week aluminum campaign last July.

Finally, what amounted to an official investigation was undertaken and a complete statis tical report prepared. The report, it was understood, showed that a total of about 200,000 pounds of aluminum and other scrap were collected, compared with the 20,000,000 pounds which had been predicted. Of this scrap, only 6,400,000 pounds was in the form of aluminum, con trasted with a 15,000,000 pound forecast. Aluminum Sold Of the scrap obtained, about 5,700,000 pounds of aluminum ingot actually has been sold to the R. F.

C. Metals Reserve company, for resale to war industries and use in war production. The WPB officials have made no secret of their criticism of Mayor F. H. LaGuardia of New York then director of the Office of Civilian Defense which handled the pots and pans campaign, for eliminating junk dealers as intermediaries in the aluminum sal vaging.

The final draft of the WPB report on the investigation. it was understood, would include several reasons for the delays which marked the drive, with elimination of junk dealers as principal one. Other causes Included a lack of adequate transportation facilities. failure of local officials to take responsibility for loading the scrap, failure of local chairmen to notify WPB when their collections were completed, and the delay in smelting.

(AP) An $8,500,000,000 ship construction measure designed to give the United States fleet unquestioned world supremacy went to the senate Friday after winning unanimous and enthusiastic house passage. The House Appropriations committee began immediately the final stages of its study of the army's requirements, with the likelihood that a record-high bill of approximately $40,000,000,000 wisa than A anflfS r1irflf rtCr of World War would emerge for action Tuesday. For the past week, a subcommittee on military expenditures has been consulting high ranking army officials, and its report probably will offer new evidence of the army's swiftly expanding strength, both in men and material. The unprecedented naval ex pansion measure was passed by the house Thursday on a roll call vote of 316 to 0, after Naval committee members declared completion of the program in 1946 would find this country's fleet stronger than the combined navies of all the rest of the world. The measure would authorize construction of 500,000 tons of aircraft carriers, 500,000 tons of light and heavy cruisers and 900,000 tons of destroyers and destroyer escort vessels.

To combat the submarine menace to coastwise shipping, it provided also for 1.000 sub chasers, torpedo and patrol boats. Chairman Vinson of the House Naval committee, who told the house that the car- Tier had replaced the battleship as the "backbone" of the fleet, disclosed that the navy was converting a "great many" merchant vessels into small carriers. Miners, Operators Meet in Capital TERRE HAUTE. (AP) Representatives of the Indiana Coal Operators' association and District 11, United Mine Workers of America, met in Washington Friday with U. S.

Department of Labor officials and Thomas R. Hutson, Indiana labor commis sioner, an attempt to settle a dispute W'hich has kept Indiana shaft mines idle the last four weeks. The conference was called by Secretary of Labor Perkins after Governor Shchicker, in a telegram, had asked that both the union and the operators send representatives to Washington. Each wired the governor their acceptance Thursday. "I am confident that their difficulties will be ironed out." Schricker said Thursday night.

He remarked he did not believe the mines wrould be reopened until the controversy was ended. The governor had appealed for settlement of the differences because of the wartime need for coal. A walkout of driller and shot fires on May 25 forced the closing of the mines and made 5,000 miners idle. The drillers and shot firers are asking a 40 cent increase in their $8.05 daily wage.
