RATIONING IN BRIEF.
Here's coffee rationing in brief:

Here's coffee rationing in brief:
Starting Sunday, November 20.
Shortage of shipping facili-
ties to bring coffee in.
Who may buy it-Persons over is
years of age, whose age is proved by
War Ration Book No. 1.-The sugar
book"
How can it be bought-With ration
stamps out of Book No. 1. Stamps
numbered from the top down to 20
are to be coffee stamps.
The ration-One pound of coffee fol-
each stamp.
First ration stamp ~.
First ration period-The five weeks
between November % and January 8
1943.
Next ration periodic be announced
later by OPA.
If YOU have no war ration book No
Apply at your local war ration
board if you haven't applied before
If you didn't get book last spring
because you had too much sugar on
hand, go to your board before De-
cember Is and ask for a book. Youl
board will give you Book No. 1, with
stamps torn out to cover the sugar
you have on hand now.
Coffee prices-Coffee prices are
under the OPA ceilings. Don't pay
any more than the merchants ceiling
price for it.
Buying advice-Buy coffee as vol
need it-a pound at time. A poune
will be allowed each adult in youl
family during the five-week period
but to get coffee as fresh as possible
(Continued on Last Page.)
The Ely miner., 1942-11-26
EXCESS COFFEE
TO BE NO HELP
Must be Used at Ration Rate
Before New Supply Can
Be Purchased.

When the sale of coffee is resumed
Monday, after being prohibited this
week, coffee hoarders will find they are
no better off than other persons.
Under regulations issued by the
OPA, any coffee in the cupboard IN
excess of one pound per person on
Monday should be consumed there
after at the rate of one pound pei
person every five weeks, and no more
can be purchased until the supply on
hand is used.
This ruling will be enforced through
a registration to be conducted later
when a new universal ration book is
issued. For the start of coffee ration
ing, stamps at the back of the sugar
ration book will be used and no i'm
mediate registration will be entailed.
But when registration is held later
for the new ration book, householder
will be required to report the amount
of coffee they had on hand Nov. 2s
and to produce stamps from the sugar
ration book to cover it. Thus hoarders
will be prevented from using the sugar
ration stamps to buy coffee for con.
sumption in excess of the ration rate

fs a Patriotic Duty This Year
Mail Christmas Packages EARLY

Ely persons planning on sending
Christmas packages through the mails
to friends or relatives not in the
armed forces are urgently requested
by the postofflce department to post
such parcels not later than Dec. 10.
This early mailing is necessary to
avoid the danger of congestion that
may result from the expected great
volume of gift packages to be sent
to members of the armed forces.
Early Christmas mailing, it is en-
phasized, is a patriotic duty, because it
will enable the postofice department
to handle soldiers mail promptly.
Unless the handling of Christmas par
cells is spread from Dec. l, there is
bound to be delaying congestion on
railroads and in postofices.

All Members of Present

QuestiOnnaires.

The young men in the local
draft district who become 18
years of age in the last six
months of this year will regis
ter during December.
Three registration dates
have been set up by presiden-
tial proclamation.
They are:
/. Those who became 18 during
July and August will register during
the week of Dec. IL.
2. Those who became 18 during
September and october will register
during the week of Dec. 49,
8. Those who become 1S during
November and December will register
during the week of Dec. 26.
After Jan. /, youths becoming Is
will register on their birthdays.
1t is presumed that December reg
istrations will be conducted at the
draft board office in the city hall here,
although no instructions have been re-
ceived yet from the state director of
selective service. A registration office
might also be set up in Tower to take
care of that area, although this has
not been decided upon.
New legislation lowering the draft
age to include the 1919 group neces-
states the registration.
