Buyers To' To Trade I. Metal Tubes WPB Forbids Toothpaste Sales Without Return Of Used Container WASHINGTON, March 31.-()- The War Production Board today prohibited retail merchants from selling toothpaste or shaving cream in tubes to any customer who fails to turn in some type of used collap- sible tube for each new one pur- chased. The provision, first of its kind and effective immediately, makes retail- ers responsible for the trade-in tran- saction and directs that the used tubes thus collected be held subject to WPB orders. At the same time, the Board placed drastic restrictions on future use and production of collapsible tin tubes and prohibited their use entirely for foods, cosmetics and most toilet pre- parations. Under the terms of the trade-in provision, a WPB spokesman de- clared, retailers are liable to penal- ties prescribed under the' second war powers act--a maximum of $10,000 fine and a year's imprisonment-if sales of tube toothpaste or shaving cream are made in violation of the order. Purchasers will not be required to exchange a used tube of the same type as the tube being purchased H~eIrew Ieast BeginsToday Eight-Day Passover Rites Start At Sunset The setting of the sun today will mark the beginning of the eight day celebration of the ancient Feast of Passover.

Sedorim are held the first and sec- ond evenings of the celebration. At the Sedorim, the rituals handed down from generation to generation are performed. The unleavened bread, symbolizing the hurry of the flight from Egypt, is first broken at .that time. Among the other ceremonial foods is the salt water signifying the tears of the Israelites, the bitter herbs symbolizing the bitterness of the life of bondage and the mixture of wine, eggs and meal symbolizing the mor- tar of the pyramids the Israelites built.
