; By properly endorsing their
coupons at once, motorist and
others holding gasoline rations
will avoid the inconvenience of
having to do so when they buy
gasoline at a service station, the
Office of Price Administration
pointed out today. They will al
so help protect their ration
books from possible misuse in
the case of loss or theft.
It is not necessary, officials
emphasized, for ration holders to
wait until they buy gasoline be
fore endorsing their coupons. In
fact, they fulfill the purpose of
the requirement only if they
write on the back of their cou
pons immediately.. This pre
vents the coupons from being
used. In connection with the op
eration of any other vehicle.
Regulations
Under the new rationing reg
ulations dealers must require
correct notations on the back of
all coupons they accept. This
requirement became effective in
the east November 21. In other
sections of the country it be
comes effective when nation--wide
mileage rationing is initiat
ed December 1. Autoistsand
'dealers who have already re
ceived ration books were urged
to write in the proper identifica
tions on the back of their cou
pons, even though they have not
yet begun to use the books.
. A, B, C and D coupons must
be endorsed on the back with
the car license number and state
of registration. - Passenger fleet
operators using interchangeable
coupon books must . write or
. stamp, the fleet name. "T" cou
pons must be endorsed on the
back with the war certificate
number or the fleet name. "E"
; and "R" coupons must have the
name and address of the user
written on the back. All en
doresements must be in ink to
. prevent alterations.

SALARIES SEEN
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27 (AP)
Validity . of President Roose
velt's $25,000 maximum net sal
ary order is certain to be chal
lenged by the new congress be
lieves Chairman George (D-Ga.)
of the senate finance committee.
Indicating he believed the sal
ary limit was invalid, George
told interviewers yesterday he
believed it "unwise and unneces
sary" and that the president had
'no authority to issue it.
Cost Plenty
The senator predicted that the
order will be contested when
the treasury asks for legislation
to obtain additional revenue.
either through compulsory sav
ings or direct taxes, when a
new. tax bill -is -considered by
congress.
Instead of Increasing receipts,
George. contended that the $25,-
000 limitation will cost the
treasury revenue because much
of the amounts over that figure
will be retained by companies
which pay at . lower income
rates than the individual receiv
ing . salaries in excess of that
amount. -,
.i Presidential Powers
Economic . Director James F,
Byrnes has estimated that an In
dividual would have to be paid
about $66,000 a year to keep his
net income within $25,000 after
caring for fixed obligations and
federal taxes.
The president apparently based
his authority for the limitation
order on powers given him by
the economic stabilization act
passed by congress, in October.

- WASHINGTON, Nov. 27 UP)
A plan to solve the manpower
situation is being advanced, a
competent source said today, in
a way- which would involve
changes in: the president's cabi
net.
Should it go through, he re
ported, functions of the war
manpower commission would be
transferred to the labor depart
ment and Harold L. Ickes would
become secretary of labor in
stead of interior secretary.
Paul V. McNutt, now man
power chief and federal security
administrator, would succeed
Ickes at interior, and Frances
Perkins, now secretary of labor,
would become federal security
head, if. the plan is adopted.
When Stephen Early, White
House press secretary, was asked
today about the cabinet shift
reports, he replied:
"The president told me yes
terday afternoon that he had
the whole thing (manpower) un
der study but had reached no
decision.
Asked when a decision was
likely, Early said . he did not
know. He added that Judge
Samuel I. Rosenman of the New
York supreme court, who has
been assisting the chief execu
tive in the manpower study, had
returned to Washington for fur
ther conferences.

Farm conservation benefit pay
ments in 1943 may be reduced
$100,000,000 below the half-a-billion-dollar
amount authorized
by federal crop control legisla
tion and $50,000,000 below the
amount congress appropriated
for the current crop year.
Agriculture department offi
cials who asked that they not be
quoted said the budget bureau
had agreed to recommend an ap
propriation of $400,000,000 for
conservation payments to be dis
tributed among farmers comply
ing with next years war food
program. , '
Reduction Suggested
Tile amount appropriated for
like payments this year was
$450,000,000. The agriculture
department had asked the bud
get bureau , to recommend an
appropriation of $450,000,000
for 1943, these officials said.
Pointmg to advances in farm
prices and to agriculture depart
ment reports that farm income
was 35 per cent greater than a
year ago, budget bureau offi
cials were said to have taken
the position at first that farm
benefit payments should be re
duced. They were said to have
suggested $200,000,000 to finance
payments to farmers who com
plied with soil conservation
practices recommended by the
agriculture department
More Argument
Department officials objected,
it was said, on the ground that
funds would not be available
for payments to farmers for
planting within their agricultur
al " adjustment administration
acreage allotments for such
crops as cotton, wheat, corn, to
bacco, rice, peanuts and pota
toes. Those allotments are de
signed to make the best possible

needs. - - , .

the Inducement of acreage pay
ments, might ignore their allot
ments ana produce crops and
products not so greatly needed
at the expense of rproducts vitally
important to the war program.

(AP) The West Side Lumber
association, which Secretary W.
W. Findley said represented 70
large South Arkansas lumber
mills and two in Texas, has
asked President Roosevelt not
to sign a WPB-proposed ex
ecutive order allocating $100,
000,000 for reopening small,
idle saw mills.
"It looks like what they are
trying to do is to start a lot of
little mills to cut timber they
can't even get to the railroads,"
said Findley.
WPB Lumber Coordinator Ben
Alexander told a senate com
mittee in Washington Wednesr
day the order had gone to the
president over his objections.
Findley declared that equip
ment and manpower which
would be used in the small
mills could produce more tim
ber for war purposes if used in
the larger, operating establish
ments which, he said, now are
forced to curtail operations be
cause of the lack of trucks and
experienced men.
