Some sort of oil rationing for the Midwest is necessary to keep the East from freezing. Government experts figured that the East with stern gas rationing as well as fuel-oil rationing can get by with a winter minimum of 1,400,000 barrels daily including important military requirements (this compares with a former winter use of about 1,700,000 barrels daily of which 550,000 was gasoline and 350,000 fuel oil). The total eastern supply available by current means of transportation needs to be boosted another 200,000 barrels a day to reach this minimum...

In his cell he had boasted: "A victorious Germany will not leave Stephan in jail." His sentence: death by hanging...
...from Moscow. When Ghormley became a maker of battles, even his old classmates found that they really knew little of their friend. They could describe his thin grey hair, his stern mouth, his droop-lidded eyes. They could discourse on his geniality when he relaxed over a drink, on the calm, unexcited way of his command of a battleship, of his respect for the opinions of his staff officers before his own decisions were made.
