Gas Ration vioIators
In Capital Facing
0PAProsecufion
Severe Penalties to Be
Sought for WiIlful
Breakers Of Law

Pine or Imprisonment faces willful
violators of the gasoline rationing
regulations, some of them possibly
being brought to task as the re-
suit of a survey just completed by
the OPA in the District.
The report on the survey is not
yet in final form, but it was dis
closed yesterday by John Joss,
chief rationing enforcement officer
of the OPA, that he had learned
from talks with investigators that
some violations had been uncovered.
A very substantial number of sta
tions" was checked here. he declared.
The check-up, however, ION the
whole did not show large number
of violators" in the District, he
added. Those who have violated the
regulations through carelessness, ig-
norance of procedures or otherwise
unwillfully probably will be warned
only. it was understood.
Brunson McChesney, assistant
general counsel in charge of enforce
ment for the OPA, said no definite
policy for dealing with non-willful
violators of the rationing regulations
had been established as yet, but he
believed some system Of warning
first-time violators who indicate no
intent to break the law would be en-
ployed.
Serious, willful violators, however,
should be punished drastically and
publicly" Mr.. Joss said. He left no
doubt they would be.
The penalty for violation Of the
rationing regulations may be $10,-
900 fine or one year in Jail. 1t is q
misdemeanor, not a felony, and
prosecution can proceed on infor-
nation, without grand jury action.

East coast motorists today faced
a one-gallon cut in the value OF
their gasoline ration coupons.
The Office of Price Administra-
ton repeatedly has decided to re-
duce the coupon value from -four
to three gallons in order 10 save
10000 barrels of petroleum pro-

The new military offensive in
North Africa brought about the
necessity for curtailing civilian use
