Statement Con-
corning Oil
Rationing

To clear up some of the many
questions that have been presented
in the last week the Rationing
Board makes the following state
ment:
Fuel oil coupons are good for fuel
oil or kerosene Kerosene is con-
sidered fuel oil but many tickets
have been returned as the applicants
state that they applied for kerosene
and their coupon books calls for
fuel oil.
The periods of the units are as
follows:
Period l.
Oct. 1, 1912 to Dec. 8, 1912
Period q
Dec. 4, 1912 to Jan. A, 1913
Period 8
Jan. S, 1943 to Feb. 2, 1943
Period a
Feb 8. 1943 to Mar. 6, 1943
Period s.
Mar. Z, 1943 to Sept. 80, '43
The Number One coupon expira-
ton date has been extended further
in December as the Rationing board
has not yet been able because of
the volume of work and the late
nesss of which the applications have
been filed, to get these coupons in
the hands of the consumer before
the expiration date.
Many people will not be satisfied
with the rationing they receive. The
board has been meeting on certain
nights to consider appeals and if
anyone would like to have his appli-
cation reconsidered they should
write the rationing Board and they
will be advised when they may ap-
pear for this appeal. Washington
has emphasized that if we expect
victories on the fighting front oil
tankers and oil must reach these
boys. Here is the choice: A chilly
living room On the home front this
winter and victory on the battle
front or unrationed oil supplies at
home and defeat on the battle
front.
The value of units / and 2 has
been declared to be ten (1O) gal
Ions each. The value of the other
units will be announced later.

Christmas Seal
Returns
Coming In

The 1912 tuberculosis Christmas
Seal Sale is we'll on its way and re-
turns are coming in, it was announc-
ed by Doctor Samuel Wolman, Pres
ident of the Maryland Tuberculosis
Association.
Doctor Wolman called attention
to the fact that these health seals
finance the anti-tuberculosis work OF
the Maryland tuberculosis Associa-
ton and asked that everyone not
only purchase them but also use
them on your mail.
These stamps not only give our
mail a brighter appearance, said
Doctor Wolman, "but they also tell
the world that you are for health
and enlightment in these dark days
of international chaos and dis
aSter.
ITO Withstand the ravages of tu-
bercu1osis, person must have a
strong healthy body. 1t is therefore
necessary that we be doubly careful
in these times"
Doctor Wolman also called atten-
ton to the fact that figures recently
released show that tuberculosis is
ON the rampage in occupied Europe
and the death rate has risen ID %
in England.
He also warned everyone in this
country to keep themselves healthy
and to see their physicians for regu-
lar medical check-ups.
Medical check-rpsg are most Aal-
portant in these times" said Doctor
Wolman, ''as our living conditions
are over-crowded, our work siren
uous, and our hours long. Let's
make sure that bad health will not
sabotage our war effort"

IlNi0N HOSPITAL
ADDITION TO
BE ERECTED

The addition to the Union Hos
pital, to provide approximately 70
additional beds, is to be erected as
soon as arrangements can be made
with the contractor according to
announcement by the President of
the Board, Abel G. Cameron. The
plans and specifications were COM
pleted and approved by the Federal
Works Agency and by the Board of
Directors of the Hospital early last
spring and the contract was award
ed in April to Samuel B. Dove of
Annapolis who was lowest bidder.
On December IL, the Building
Committe consisting of Abel G.
Cameron, Edwin S. Dorcus, Murray
]. Ewing, Harry w. Pippin and
John M. Smith, Chairman, receiv-
ed instructions froA the Federal
Works Agency in Rio lond, to pro-
coed as rapidly as possible with the
construction The work will be start
ed as soon as negotiations with the
contractor can be completed and 1t
will take close to year to finish
the work and have the Dulld1ng
ready for occupancy.
The construction of the building
is to cost somewhat over $250,000.
Equipment will be in addition to this
amount. The Building Fund Cam
paign conducted by the Board of
Directors in the spring of 1941 has
resulted in the collection of $61 900
and the Government, through the
Federal Works Agency, made us a
grant of 100000. These two items,
together with the Maternity Annex
Fund and some other funds which
the Board of Directors had avail
able, make an amount only few
thousand dollars less than enough.
The delay in starting the construc-
ton of the hospital has been due to
the entrance of the United States
into the War which created SO many
Government complications, the is
suing of priority certificates for
materials to the construction was
unavoidably delayed.
