Bryce R. Holt, assistant United Slates district attorney for the middle North Carolina district, explained that the procedure is for the results of local Investigations to I* submitted to the legal department of the state OPA offices In Raleigh. The state OPA legal department fin turn,submits the Information to the department of Justice, which then determines whether the facts warrant prosecution. The district attorney's office as a part of the department of Justice files charges on the basis of the facts developed by Investigators. It is understood reliably that the results'o the investigation by state highway putrolmen of the reported ration book violations here have been turned over to Norman Shepherd, state legal counsel for the OPA, responsible for enforcement of regula tions. Nature of the information uncovered by the patrolmen is being withheld, but It Is understood that evidence pointing strongly to bootlegging of gas coupons has been compiled. First information of alleged handling of illegal coupons was revealed Tuesday night by local rationing officials.' This report was that circulation of detached coupons had been revealed. Subsequently, It was stated that reports bad been received that full C books, apparently counterfeited, had been offered for sale in and around the city. Advises Early .. . Legume Sowing ' Conservationist Points To Many Advantages I Planting winter legumes early, | which is always a good farm practice, is- especially important this year, according to J. Hall Campbell, Guilford county conservationist of the Haw River soil conservation district.' Early planted legumes will make good growth before cold weather comes and thus will provide better protection against erosion, sufficient growth for early spring grazing, and more green material for turning uif-1 der in advance of planting spring crops. The early grazing will help to I furnish milk and meat needed In the war effort, Campbell' declared, and the nitrogen added to the soil by taming'under a good growth of legumes will Increase crop yields and save commercial nitrogen, which la needed Iq making munitions. ' Dry weather that ordinarily comes in the fall In this section Is 'one-of the principal obstacles In getting winter crops planted early, Mr. , Campbell said. In order to take advantage of any rain that comes. It ! is Important to have the land prepared and pienty of seed on band.

Teague, drivers' license examiner for the state department of motor vehicles. The exchange of plates Involves] automobiles which' are being converted to trucks In compliance with rationing regulations, whereby vehicles designed primarily for passenger use are used to transport salesmen's sample cases, servicemen's repair tools and the like. The department of motor vehicles has announced . that "In legitimate cases where automobiles and station wagons are used primarily for the transportation of property, the department will make the exchange but 1 It Is not disposed to Issue truck plates for automobiles merely for the purpose of. gasoline rationing.*! No vehicle designed to carry passengers will lie licensed as a truck unless the machine has actually la-en altered to haul property and Is used for this purpose. Changing Imdy for a pick-up box is sufficient alteration, but Installation of a rack in the luggage compartment of a coupe is not sufficient. However, If the lid should be removed and a box added, under departmental ruling, this would fend to be sufficient. Furthermore, permanent removal of all seats except the one for the driver is considered sufficient alteration, as Is the permanent removal of the rear seat, bacfc cushion and seat platform. Regulations also prescribe that applications for exchange of plates under such circumstances must be accompanied bv a Ktslpmpnl fr?n> e highway patrolman, automobile Inspetor or. braDch manager of Cann llna Motor club, setting out what changed hare been made and also stlpnlatlng that the vehicle has been Inspected. Title to the vehicle must be returned for correction where there hus been a body change or exterior alteration. However, this should not l?e done where only Interior alterations have been made. i These regulations conform to the Instructions given out, some time ago bjuration log officials' concerning the cooversiod of passenger tears to . trucks for commercial'purposes In order,'to "be eligible for service ration. Heavy penalties are prescribed for motorists who secure truck rationing 1 certificates based upon a commercial registration and operate such vehicles for passenger transportation. ^ I j ; Asiatic and African elephants dlf 1 far'!
