Alaska Newspapers, (New York Times) | In modern war the queen of battles is not the linfantry. It is gasoline. This is one stern fact that |every motorist who is inclined to growl at OPA’s re- newed order against pleasure driving should write down and memorize The present shortage on the Eastern seaboard is the result of more than one caust War require- ments, including, certainly, preparations to invade | Europe, have drawn heavily on supplies. So have the |seasonal needs of farmers. The Arkansas floods {broke a big pipe line which has been helping to feed this section. But all these diversions, added up, do not account for the shortage. The only possible con- clusion is that many car owners are doing unneces- |sary driving and getting extra gasoline in improper ways. { If every drop of motor fuel could be followed |from refinery to tank it would not be nect make “pleasure” sin. Not much pleasure is to be had by a one- family, especially in the suburban areas, out of the less than a gallon and a half a week permitted by an “A” card. A “B” family, some | distance from schools, shopping centers and church- es, is not much better off. Trouble arises when per: ) mits for extra gasoline are abused, as it is clear the have been. It is apparently not possible to make a careful investigation in each case before such per- mits are granted, nor, without an inspector on every car, truck, tractor and comms al fishing boat, is it possible to check their use exactly. The black market is a result. And the black market is organ- ized crime, which contaminates every one who deals with it. The use of the police and OPA inspectors to check drivers, most of whom will be found innocent, may be criticized. So may OPA’s vacillating policy But what good does this criticism do? There is but one course for the good citizen. He must cut out unnecessary driving. The bad citizen, who cares for nothing but his own convenience, must be disci- plined. It is a sordid, unpleasant business, but there appears to be no way out Those who bear in mind that for lack of gaso- | line American soldiers may die need not fear the inspectors.
