Truman Asks Extension Of Second War Powers Act WASHINGTON, Feb. 3 (IP) President Truman today asked congress for "limited" extension ot the second war powers act, including his authority to ration sugar and allocate scarce foods and a handful of materials. Though he named only a few items, he left a big field for White House discretion by seek ing the power to restrict other materials in case of "a national emergency that we do riot now foresee" such as a coal strike. Pleading for "immediate and favorable" action on Capitol Hill, Mr. Truman asked a one year extension beyond March 31 for tliree sections of the act. The major one, title III, carries the sweeping power of priority and allocation and export and import control. . . , Under it, Mr. Truman asked Chicken Pox Leads List Chicken pox led the commu nicable disease report in Klam ath county for the week ending January 25. according to the Oregon Health Bulletin, but pneumonia remained the prime health scourge in the state. There were 26 new chicken pox cases, 5 of pneumonia. 7 scarlet fever, 1 each measules, mumps, syphillis, 2 gonorrhea. Pneumonia showed no appre ciable change throughout the state and the number of cases has now accumulated to 56 per cent over last year's figures for the same period. The 398 chick en pox cases in Oregon reported during the past four weeks bring the disease to well over twice as many cases as shown in last year's similar reports.

The two other "titles" of the act which should be retained, said Mr. Truman's message, are those which (1) allow the mari time commission to run shipping lines and (2) permit the oper ation of ships with less crew and equipment than in ordinary times ot peace. "It is unsettling, both for bus iness and for the general public, to be obliged to wait until the last possible moment for deci sion by the congress on emer gency legislation," Mr. Truman said. "I urge the congress to give immediate and favorable consid eration to the limited exten sion of the second war powers act I have requested. Moore Rites Held In Paris PARIS.
