automobile dealers' association
convention at Chicago by the or
ganization's general counsel,
Charles W. Bishop of Washing
ton.
Bishop said that the suggested
legislative program, ir adopted
by congress, would "answer most
of the major problems facing the
dealers.
Declining 1h.it the Vinson act,
under which the freezing order
was Issued, lacks "teeth since
the only penalty provided for vio
lation is the shutting off of the
supply of priority materials,
Bishop said that amendment was
needed for "the protection of the
great majority of the dealers
who are complying with the order."
Some dealers, he said, are sell
ing new cars openly "right now."
In addition to the criminal pen
alties the proposed legislative
program would:
Give the government authority
to bring injunction proceedings
against any violators.
Delegate to the president the
right to freeze the Inventory of
any article regarded as strategic.
Permit the president to fix the
prices of frozen articles at fair
retail levels. Bishop explained
that this provision would make it
possible to fix the exact prices of
cars and prevent buyers from go
ing on a "grand tour," among
dealers In quest of the best bar
gains. This would be in lieu of
the present established ceiling on
prices.

to Obev Hitler's order to hold
Mozhaisk at all costs. It added
that red army troops, storming
into the city after smashing earth
and timber forts 50 to 100 yards
apart, found a scene of chaotic
destruction and carnage.
"The whole defense belt was
dug with huge craters and litter

foot soldiers moved relentlessly
toward the center of the town,
driving out or killing automatic
riflemen in their hideouts . . . the

Storm Slows African War
The worst sand and rain storms
in Libya In 10 years are hamper
ing the movements of pritish
land and air forces attempting
to strike at General Rommel's
axis forces along the gulf of
Sine, British headquarters at
Cairo said today.
As a result, much of the region
has been rendered impassable, a
communique said, and the axis
forces have taken the opportunity
to mine heavily the restricted
areas over which the British
imiKbt .press the advance.
The announcement said, how
ever, that collection of equip
ment in the Halfaya (Helifire)
pass sector along the Libyan
Egyptian frontier wrested from
the axis last week was continuing
and that the final count of pris
oners captured there was 5,026.
Captured equipment,, the Brit
ish said, included 16 German and
44 , Italian field pieces "in first
class condition" nnd large quanti
ties of other arms, munitions and
supplies of all kinds. .
