Santa Claus And Gas Kalispell, Mont., Dec. 24 (UP; The Flathead County rationing board called a special meeting to day to rule on an emergency appli cation for gasoline. The application was made on a regulation form, but it asked for an undetermined quantity of gasoline sufficient to tour the enth-3 United States in one night. It was signed by S. Claus, who gave his address as the "North Pole" and listed his occupation as "Pur veyor of good "will to children." Mr. Claus explained he intended to travel along the new Alcan righ way from Alaska this year for the first time and said he would stop at Kalispell to comply with rationing regulations. Kalispell is the first city in the United States to be reached by ! southbound travelers on the Alcan highway. The rationing board scoff ed at the suggestion that the appli cation might have been filed by a zealous promoter to publicize that fact. "It appears to be a bona fide ap plication," the board announced, but it added that it didn't "quite un erstand why Santa should exchange his reindeer and sleigh for a gas burning buggy at this stage of the game." The board is expected to issue the applicant a "C" card, expiring at dawn. December 25. Christmas Wedding A very pretty wedding took place at the Methodist Parsonage on Christ- Morning when Rev. T.

Warns Of Danger Of Talk On Men And Their Service Naming Men and the Troov Org anization That I Ley My Be Serving in cr on Ships Dargevov.s By Byron Price, Director of the Office of Censorship Washington, Dec. 2G U.P. On battle fronts every day risk their lives to discover the location and strength of the military ur.ita of the enemy. Yet at honK too many of us are providing the enemy with in formation of Ihe sam2 military value the Office of Censorship says. This is the information which newspapers and individuals are ask ed not to tell the enemy. 1. Do not tell the names of ships upon which sailors serve. 2. Do not tell the troop units in' which soldiers serve. There is no objection to revealing that Pvt. John Jones is in Australia; or that Seaman Tom Brown saw ac tion in the Atlantic; but there is mi litary information which endangers the lives of American fighting men in stating that Pvt. JoPhn Jones, "Company C, 600 Infantry" is in Australia, or Seaman Tom Brown "aboard the U.S.S. Wisconsin" is in the Atlantic." The Office of Censorship says: "We ask editors not to publish these troop identifications and we ask parents and relatives not to re veal them. Don't give the enemy any thing that may lengthen the war!"
