Please remember
San Francisco, Nov. 5 (U.P)
Government officials said today
that more than 100 merchant
ships, hastily built for wartime
use, were being sent to marine
graveyards or would be other
wise disposed of as no longer
usable.
Officials of the war shipping
administration and ship opera
tors indicated that the war
built vessels would furnish no
solution to the' problems of high
point soldiers and sailors at Pa
cific embarkation points, who
have been flooding relatives with
protests at their slow shipment
home. The war-built vessels can
not be converted to troopships
officials said.
Departure Delay Seen
Many servicemen complained
that their departure for home
was being delayed while cargo
vessels returned to -mainland
ports with empty holds. Ship op
erators pointed out that bunking,
feeding and medical facilities
were lacking on most of the ves
sels. Illustrating the scope of mer
chant marine problem, war ship
ping administration officials said
that during the war the govern
ment spent approximately $8,-
225,000,000 to build 5,304 cargo
vessels, troop carriers and the
other vessels.
One of the worst postwar
snarls on the Pacific coast has
been in San Francisco bay where
shipping officials said 209 merch
ant vessels were anchored or
docked. The worst jam was six

While hearings were in pro

The ships at Suisun bay are

To help carrier planes vault off flat tops in a hurry,
Standard scientists put special blending agents in our
famous Chevron Aviation Gasoline. Now, these same
fast-firing ingredients in Chevron Supreme whisk
your car into action the instant you touch the starter.
Gasoline must be vaporized before it can turn the
engine over. So, the easier gasoline vaporizes in a cold
motor, the quicker your car starts. The new controlled
volatility of Chevron Supreme not only starts your car
instantly, it cuts warm-up time down to seconds.
So, even when the mercury creeps down this winter,
you needn't worry about being stalled by a cold motor.
Chevron Supreme will get it going in a jiffy. Then, when
you sample that alert get-away, that pingless power
you'll see why motorists all over the West are switch
