Washington, Nov. 24—The Senate war investigating committee decided today to look ino he cigarette short* age. A preliminary exploration will start immediately and the commit tee will decide next week wheher to sanction a full-dress quiz into the scanty suply of smokes avail able for fighting men oversaas and workers in the United States. The investigation was suggested by Senaor Ferguson, Republican Michigan, who declared “the short age is a blow at the war effort when it hits the boys at the front.”’ Ferguson reported that Chairman Mead, Democrat, New York, agreed to the recommendation and felt much the same way about the situ ation. Neither senator smokes cigarettes. “News from the front indicates the shortage is affecting the fighting men,” Ferguson said, “therefore in my eyes the question clearly calls for an investigation.” He said he had seen lines of peo ple two and a half blocks long out side stores where cigarettes are sold in Detroit, and added: “A situation like that certainly can interfere with our domestic life as well as with the war effort.” HAWKINS-JONES A manage of much interest to their many friends wa sthat of Mrs. Sudie Mae Hawkins to Mr. Wilbur Jones, on November 22, 1944 at the residence of the officiating minis ter, the Rev.
