Senator Asks
For Inquiry
Into Gasoline
Washington, Aug, 21 (fP) A New
England senator today urged a
speedy congressional investigation
to determine whether the east ac
tually faces a gasoline shortage, as
the defense petroleum office sharp
ly reasserts is the case.
"I want to learn if there Is an
actual shortage or If we are being
pushed around for psychological rea
sons," Senator Maloney (D., Conn.),
told reporters, saying he would ask
the senate commerce committee to
act immediately on his resolution
for an inquiry.
Meanwhile, it appeared that auto
mobile owners in Washington soon
would feel the full force of the cur
tailment program. Local filling sta
tion operators were informed that
one large oil company would deliver
to Us retail dealers, between August
16 and 31, only 30 per cent of what
they received in July.
Senator Maloney proposed that a
special senate committee determine
If there was an actual shortage of
gasoline and fuel oil, and recom
mend means of assuring an ade
quate supply of fuels for national
defense purposes "without undue
hardship to business enterprises and
consumers generally."
He said he would ask that Sccre
tary of the Interior Ickes be called
as the first witness, If the senate
approved the Inquiry.
As the proposal gained support,
Senator Clark (D., Mo.), said he
was especially Interested in learning
If it were necessary to cut down
American consumption to supply
Britain with fuel, or if such steps
were being taken to emphasize the
"all-out" viewpoint of aid to Brit
ain. At the same time, Senator Mc
Nnry of Oregon, the minority lead
er, predicted that there would be
almost solid republican support for
the Maloney proposal on the com
mcrce committee, of which he is I
member.
Consolidation of

Evangelical and United Brethren
churches was discussed today at the

supplies and McKay for transpor
tation. Each was told to select his
own assistants.
Committees were selected follow
ing an explanation of civilian de
fense activities by Bryan H. Conley, j
county civil defense coordinator. Ci- j
vilian reserve registration lists mayj
be consulted for additional workers;
needed.
Douglas McKay told the group
that the response to the call f or ;
civilian defense workers had been
phenomenal. Emergencies possible
today, he said, could not have been
imagined two years ago.

85.000 Troops
To Be Inserted
Bv Marshall
With the Army In Southwest
Wnshlntrtnn, Aue. 21 (A3) More than
85,000 soldiers of the 4th army were
drawn up on a battle front in west
coast war maneuvers today await
ing an inspection by Secretary of
War Henry L. Stimson and Gen.
George C. Marshall, chief of staff.
The last of California's tactical
combat troops arrived in the state
today to join the 50,000 soldiers of
Port Lewis who have been fighting
a superior invader force for the
past week.
Only a few quatermaster units
from California are due on the
front to bring the defending army's
strength to 21,000, biggest maneuver
concentration of soldiers in west
coast history.
There was little activity on the
front today. The 49th and 7th di
visions from California were busy
maneuvering into position on the
front. Officers said an attack prob
ably would be launched tomorrow
on the front from Vader to Shelton
Small units will occupy strategic
locations elsewhere.
Secretary Stimson and General
Marshall were expected in the area
by tomorrow night. Lieut. Gen.
John L. DeWitt, commander of the
4th army, invited newsmen to a con
ference in Longview tomorrow noon.
It was expected Stimson and Mar
shall would be there at that time.
RaverWorried
By Reports of
New Locations
Portland, Ore., Aug. 21 The
possibility that originally selected
sites for northwest aluminum plants
may be changed is disturbing, Paul
J. Raver Bonneville administrator,
said yesterday.
He coupled this with the asser
tion that delays in selecting sites
and getting plants started was cost
ing the United States 250 tons of
aluminum daily.
The Aluminum Company of Am
erica's chief engineer accompanied
OPM engineers in what he termed
a cursory examination of sites and
the offer of aid from Bonneville
was rejected, he said.
"The fact that the Aluminum
Company of America engineers are
assisting m tne selection of these
sites Is certainly significant and
disturbing," Raver said, "from the
point of view of the future com
petitive positions of these govern
ment plants n the northwest."
Raver said that locations at Spo
kane, Tacoma and Cascade Locks
were originally chosen by Bonneville
after careful study, and added it was
essential that the plans be located
where power facilities would be
readily available.
"Bonneville has been ready for at
least two months'' to start its lines
to the projected plants, he said, and
"we cannot assume responsibility
for additional delays and addition
al costs involved In shifting these
sites from the locations originally
agreed upon."
