A preliminary survey here showed fio concerted rush to buy gasoline be- fore the coupons are devalued from four gallons to three, although scat- tered reports showed some extra pur- chasing activity. Predictions Were prevalent, how- ever, for a speedup in business to- night and tomorrow by motorists de- manding "fill 'er up." "It's pretty much business as usual, so far," said B. H. Provis, pi'esident of the Gasoline Retailers' Associa- tion. "Most motorists are in the habit, since gasoline rationing, of kbeping their tanks full. Since most automobiles have some supply of gasoline, to fill up the tank doesn't take as much gasoline as might be expected." Major oil companies, with adequate supplies to meet emergency demands, felt no unusual drain by service sta- tions seeking to replenish depleted supplies, the survey showed. Instructions for enforcing the new regulations have been issued to the OPA's regional enforcement staff, Rsegional Administrator Raymond S. McKeough said today. They were transmitted to district offices in Ili- nois, Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North and South Dakota.

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN TYPICAL AMERICAN PEOPLE: Hayden StudiesNegro Past, Culture In an attempt to prove' that the- Negro past reaches beyond slavehood and that the black man's culture is typically American, Robert Hayden, University lecturer, has collected samples of Negro history and folk- lore in connection with the Federal Writers' Project. Travelling throughout Michigan visiting libraries and museums, Hay- den has come into contact with ex- slaves in Detroit. From them . he learned old Negro stories and folk- lore dating from the Civil War and Restoration period. Soorthern Negro Was Intelligent "Contrary to published history, colored men who helped revise the South after the war were intelligent citizens, and Negroes did not domi- nate the Reconstruction Era," Hay- den said yesterday. "No worse than our present Con- gressmen, these Negroes achieved civil' rights for colored people, new educational facilities, county and state- reorganization and tax revi- Hayden's research has led him to the belief that the common idea of Negro poetry is wrong. "We have American poetry written by Negroes," he stated. Hayden's latest book, "The Black Spear," to be published shortly by Doubleday, Doran & Co., deals with Negro life during the slaverty period and the Civil War. Book To Be Published "James Weldon Johnson first no- ticed my poetry," Hayden said. "Stephen Vincent Benet, author of 'John Brown's Body,' was also very interested in my work," he added. Hayden wrote .the script and acted as commentator for the series of broadcasts given over CKLW during the exhibition celebrating 75 years of Negro progress which was held in Detroit in 1940. Hopwood Award Won A graduate of Wayne University, Hayden began the study of English, play production and creative writing at the University in 1938.
