Though Portland restaurants

they viii start on = strict one
cup Of coffee per person rule At

raj rule in Tacoma.
Some local wholesale roasters
Of the scarce commodity. however.
have been asking their restaurant
customers to start rationing din
ers to one cup. even n they wish
to pay for q second. That's the
new rule in the Oregon city.
The national coffee shortage
still hasn't brought actual ra-
fioning. rs with sugar. but the
burden has been handed to
roasters TO allow restaurants
only 10 per cent Of the coffee
they used last year.
Many Tacoma restaurants APP
parently will not have TO start the
one-cup rule because they now are
keeping open only about half the
time they did last year. That way
they automatically have been
keeping within their coffee limit
