The National Federation of Telephone Workers ordered its 48 locals to call out some 250,' 000 members Friday for a mass vote on strike action.

This prospect was hold out to day b Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson as he 'dis closed the discovery of 1,600,000 tons of Japanese-stored sugar in liberated Java ports. The American share of this un expected stockpile la likely to be at least 700,000 tons about 10 pounds per person if evenly di vided among the population. An derson said it was enough to make possible the end of sugar rationing many months earlier than anticipated. Other Stocks Expected Officials originally feared that MOST SINCE 1943 Sixty-one building permits, amounting to $139,165, were Issued from the office of the city superintendent last month, ac cording to statistics at the office. This is the greatest permit total since July, 1943, when 37 per mits totaling $152,835 were issued. Permits for last month Includ ed $35,200 for new residences; $5,865, residence repairs; $85, 500, new businesses and $9,300 for business repairs. Remaining $3,300 was for new garages and miscellaneous repairs. Those applying for building permits at the office since Fri day were Britt Newman, 745 Da kota avenue, $3,500, erect resi dence and garage; W. S. Huff man, 38 Myers court, $150, re- shingle residence; F. Stephenson, 512 Boardman street, $250, re model garage; and C. Wyman, 801 South Peach street,. $75 to remodel residence.

With the sud den discovery of the large slocks In Java, and the prospect of even more In other Pacific areas, An derson indicated that sugar cou pons may be torn up when the Cuban sugar crop is harvested next spring. The rationing of fats and oils, meats and the few other foods still on the ration list is expected to end by Jan. 1 or shortly there after. Shoes, the only other Item for which ration books are now used, are expected to become ration free within weeks. To Pool Find Bakers, candy makers and oth er Industrial users probably will have their sugar quotas liberaliz ed almost immediately as result of the sudden improvement In supply. Anderson said the Java sugar would be assigned to the Allied Nations pool for allocation to member nations by the combined food board. The United States normally gets about half of the pooled supply. He said it was entirely likely that even more sugar will be found in the interior of Java, on Formosa, the Philippines and possibly the Japanese home is lands.
