LONDON PEOPLE ON

LONDON, April 2o-Seventcen mil
lion people In England are now ra-
toned for tea and steps are being
taken by the food controller to make
the rationing OF tea uniform through
out the country.
The rationing scheme has been so
successful that II has caused the Lon
magic. The only ones that remain
are the amusement queues. and few
lard and one of two cats meat queues.
Until a few weeks ago there were
tea queues every day in front of the
big merchants store in Fleet street
and that store reduced it's business
hours to a minimum. Now there is
no queue and the store is open all day.
The explanation OF the manager is
that the tea was not distributed to the
small stores whose customers then
came to the big stores and formed
queues.
The margarine shops whose queues
used to reach around the block, are
now queues-less and have big dis
plays in their windows. The meat
markets seem full of food, and every
one seems moderately satisfied.
Commenting on the Transformation
made by rationing in the appearance
of the city, one paper suggests; 1t
would be good If those organs of pub
licity which made q big business OF
queue photos that were afterward re-
produced In German papers and made
good German propaganda would now
publish photos of the queueiess cities
and the stocked shops"
