postponement of the order. "If you meant to assert that any member of Congress opposing nationwide rationing of gasoline was receiving a financial consideration In support of that opposition, then I must- brand the insinuation for what it Is completely false and without foundation," declared Rep. Boren (D-Okla.) in a telegram to Jeffera. "Your statement is an insult to the integrity oi the people at large end the members of Congress participating in this action," the Oklahoman continued.

Members of the bloc largely composed of Congressmen from the western- ou-proaucing states conceded freely there was little possibility that legislation could be whipped Into shape to postpone the rationing order before one jjecemoer aeaaune.

21 Employment officials were searching to day for approximately 1,000 laborers laid off within the last few days at the Topeka army hospital construction and who were to have gone to work Immediately on the army air forces supply depot. Tt's a mystery to L. D. Hughes of the S. employment service said.

"We thought we had plenty of workers lined up for the depot Job." Carpenters are being held up, he added, until preliminary construction is out of the way. Hughes speculated the laborers were taking rests, had gone home for brief visits, or were moving to other construction projects. One of the earliest ways of mea suring time was by burning a can-die or stick.

Although there has been considerable maneuvering behind the scenes by friends and foes of Wendell Wlllkie. the 1940 presidential nominee, party leaders like Senate minority leader Mc-Nary of Oregon, were reported favoring a compromise selection who would be acceptable not only to Wlllkie but to all prominent party members. This view was echoed Ralph H.

Friends of Townsend, who managed the re cent successful campaign resulting in a gain of nine Republican seats in the Senate, declared he would accept the chairmanship If tendered.

The same Is said in behalf of Senator Robert Taft, of Ohio, another prominent candidate for the presidential nomination two years ago. The name of John D. M.
