 Every family is given a card, stating the quantity of food allotted to it, accord ing to it's size. These cards are used on stated days at the various markets. Every family has a regular day for purchasing it's meat supplies for the week. This regulates the butchers supply and pre- vents him being loaded up unnecessarily. He, in turn, is obliged to present his customers cards to the central govern mental supply station when renewing his stock. Game and poultry do not come under the meat restrictions, and can be freely purchased as yet.
 Bakers also sell by weekly arrange ments Every consumer is entitled to 1900 grams of baked bread, or 1700 grams of bread and 250 grams of meal or flour. Each consumer is also entitled to 60 grams of butter and 30 grams of oleo- margarine. He may also draw nine pounds of potatoes a week. There is no rule about how these supplies shall be
 used. A family or an invidiual can use
 up all it's card rations in day. For the
 rest of the week, naturally they would
 l then have to live on food articles the
 purchase of which is not restricted by
 l the food regulations.
