A WEEK OF THE WAR
Chairman Nelson öf the war pro
duction board abolished the OPM
and transferred its functions re
garding production, purchasing, pri
orities. materials, civilian supply and
subcontracting to a new streamlined
organization under the board. In ad
dition, Mr. Nelson created under the
„new board a progress reporting and
planning unit to suggest improve
ments from time to time.
Mr. Nelson stressed two funda
mental differences between the old
and new organization: an increased
amount of authority and a more
definite delegation of responsibility
to promote speed. He said the main
objective of the new organization
was the full mobilization in the war
effort of every national resource,
large and small.
Mr. Nelson named Ernest Kanzler
to convert auto industry facilities to
war use. Mr. Kanzler will have com
plete authority to do whatever is
necessary, Mr. Nelson said,
Autos, Trucks and Tires
The WPB ordered all production
of passenger cars and light trucks
for any purpose halted Feb. 1. The
announcement or the order said all
military demands can be filled from
the stockpile of autos that will be
on hand by that date and which
cannot be sold without government
permission.
OPA announced that there is no
prospect of rationing for used cars j
or of commandeering of private cars.
OPA amended the auto freezing or
der to permit transfer of title to any
vehicle under the terms of install
ment contracts drawn up before Jan.
1 and repossession of any vehicle
involved in a breach of such con
tract. The agency also amended its 1
tire freezing rules to allow clergymen
to purchase new tires and tubes, j
OPA put a ceiling on materials used
in retreading used tires.
Transportation
The interstate commerce commis- '
sion granted railroads permission to
increase passenger fares 10 percent,
Exempt from the increase are spe
cial fares granted to military or
naval men on furlough. Permission
was also granted to the Railway Ex
press Agency. Inc., to make an emer- j
gency additional charge of 10 cents,
per package sent at first, second or
third-class rates. i
.
The president said the United na

Americans who had enlisted before
te war under foreign flags. War j
Secretary Stimson announced com
Uletion of plans for the formation
of a 6th armored division and two |
additional all-negro units; an in- .
fantrv division and an air pursuit
squadron. The house passed and sent

pear at the high school auditorium
here at 3 the afternoon of Feb. 8.
under auspices of the First Luther
an church choir.
The choir, numbering 60 trained
voices, has gained the reputation of
being among the few outstanding
organizations of its kind in America.
This year it is making its tour
through North Dakota and Montana,
The organization is chosen by
competition from more than 150 of
the 530 students at Concordia
lege, who try out to gain admission
to its ranks the fall of each year.
Tire artistry of the group has been
commented on bv such music critics
Edward Barry of the Chicago
Tribune, who said. "Under the di
rection of Paul J. Christiansen, son
of the famous choir director and
composer. F. Melius Christiansen,
these visitors from Moorhead. Minn,,
astonished their listeners with the
beauty and variety of their tonal
effects. Depth and richness are the
choir's principal characteristics, but
thes are readily modified when the
music calls for skylike delicacy and
simplicity of texture."

This was interpreted here as mean

in defense industries for the dura
