JERSEY CONGRESSMEN

Shore Interests Charge Unfair Discrimination WASHINGTON — New Jerwy congressional mailbags have been packed for the last two weeks with letters protesting the damage and deprivation that will be forced on the state by the OPA’s ruling that an automobile may be taken to a summer home only to close the house. Public officiBlB, business people, professional people, home owners and even members of rationing boards and staff members of the OP A ask their congressmen for relief. Heavy losses to property owners throughout the state are cited. An astonishing number of the letter wpters, particularly elderly persons, saved gasoline coupons all winter so they could get to their shore or lake homes for the summer, with no intention of pleasure driving when once there. The letters, as might be expected, denounce the OPA's bureaucratic methods, sometimes OPA officials by name, and uniformly demand that New Jersey congressmen do something to force strict rationing controls upon the midwest and south, so as to ease up distribution in the northeast. Jersey’s delegation joined late last week with congressmen from other northeastern states, gasoline dealers, petroleum officials and local government representatives in a meeting here to form a gasoline relief bloc. A plan of action was considered. The meeting was called by Representative Hartley, of New Jersey's 10th District, a member of the Smith Committee which has been investigating the OPA along with other federal agencies. Two or three of the letters told of abandonment of farms, mostly by elderly couples. In one case, a crop already up was being left behind. A group of property owners at the shore signed a round robin, declaring they would not be able to meet local taxes this year if the ruling is sustained. A North Jersey Common Pleas Judge wrote: “The OPA decision, if allowed to stand, will kill the shore and real estate values, as well as property in the suburbs and in the country.’’ An official of a northern New Jersey municipality wrote: "I presume my case is very similar to many families. We have not used our car since last summer. The gas tank is still almost full, enough for two round trips. Last week I obtained my car license so I could go to camp soon to fix it up, then along comes this
