Rationing Program.
The card rationing program, II
adopted, would mean that each
motorist could buy only a specific
number Of gallons Of gasoline over
a specified period-that one custom
arily using 20 gallons a month could
get only Is.
No decision apparently had been
reached in the Petroleum Co-ordina-
tors office on whether the "curfew"
should be applied on a Nation wide
basis, as previously recommended
by the Industry War Council, an
advisory body. Some officials were
reported to favor side-tracking the
"curfew" plan in favor Of a program
which would limit stations to IL
hours Of operating time daily with
each retailer deciding what hours
he wanted to keep his place open.

The rise contrasted with . re-

In the rural areas where the ex-
