Misuse of the checks is especially serious, it was pointed out, because a single check often involves a large quantity of rationed goods. "This particular racket is a serious ;threat to OPA's entire fair distribution program and must be wiped out , promptly," Mr. Howies said. u Metnods used &y the racketeers already arrested in bogus ration check operations include the issuing of checks bearing forged signatures or names of ficticious persons, the opening of wholesaler or industrial user bank accounts for the purpose of indiscriminate issuing of checks, and the building up of bank credits by phony deposits of short-weight envelopes, or envelopes containing worthless paper or counterfeit stamps along with some valid stamps. Funds Allocated for Tenant PiirrhaaA l.nana Allocations among the States and territories of half of the $50,000,0001 authorized for the Farm Security Administration's tenant purchase loans for the next 12 months have been announced by the U. S. De partment of Agriculture. The re mainimr S25.000.000 is earmnrlroH for loans to World War If and will be made available wherever the demand for loans' occurs. The allocated funds distributed on th basis of farm population and the pre valence of tenancy, will be used in the regular FSA program under which loans are madp t sharecroppers and farm laborers for me purcnase or family-size farms. Congress increased these funds by $10,000,000 over last year. 1 he loans, made under thP Rant. head-Jones Farm Tenant Act of 1937, can cover the full purchase price of a family farm. They are repayable over a 40-year period and bear three percent interest nn nn. paid principal. One requirement ap plicants must meet to obtain a loan is inability to get adequate credit from other sources on reasonable terms. An exception to this is made only in the case of veterans who show a need for the type of vocation al guidance offered by FSA. No More All-Rubber Tires No more tires will be manufactured entirely of natural rubber, W. James aears, deputy director of WPB's Rub ber Bureau, reported as- r additional steps to conserve America's dwind ling stockpile of natural rubber were announced. "Every pound of natur al rubber must be reserved for pro ducts that cannot be made of ade quate quality by using synthetic rubber," Sears said. Consumer Prospects for Wearing Apparel To assure continued production for nine kinds of coats and overcoats for men, women and children, manufac turers will be granted priorities as sistance in obtaining woolen knitted fabrics in the third and succeedinir quarters, WPB said. The coats and overcoats for which priorities assist- PAGE THREE ance win be granted are: women's, misses' and juniors' coats; teen-age girls coats; girls' coats; children's coats; toddlers' coats; infants' coats; boys' finger-tip 'coats; men's ulster ana double-breasted . overcoats, and men s basic model overcoats. A WPB order, effective in Mav. covering distribution of textiles to manufacturers is helping to bring back medium and lower-priced gar ments to dealers' shelves by late summer, said Kenneth W. Marriner, director of WPB's Textile Bureau. Cloth allocation was made to provide for three civilian groups: children, workers and that trroun of adults whose annual earninirs do not. allow them to accumulate wardrobes. Spec ial consideration was piven to chil dren's garments over adult needs. Maternity Care for hervice Men s Wives Eierht hundred fiftv thousand wives and infants of servicemen have received care or are receiving care under the emenrencv matpmitv anrl infant-care program, the Children's Bureau of the U. S. Department of 44,000 new cases were authorized for care. Through this program, which is administered by State health departments, under plans ap proved by the Children's Bureau. complete maternity care, including medical and hospital service, is pro vided for wives of service men, and medical and hospital care is avail able for their infants until they are one year of age. This care is provided for the wives and infants of enlisted men without cost to the men or their families and without regard to their financial sta tus. Those eligible are wives and infants of men in the four lowest pay grades of the Army, Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps and of Army and Navy aviation cadets. Care is authorized without regard to race or place of residence. Appli cations for this care can be made through the physician accepting the case or throutrh State offices. Inquiries should he aHrlrp00. ed to State Departments of health. Veterans' Developments With the number of vetera turning to civilian life constantly in. creasing, the U. S. Employment Ser vice will expand its veterans' nro- grams and activities immediately to assure adequate and sneeial to veterans, Paul V. McNutt, chair man of the War Manpower Ci mmiG- sion, said.
