information and aid which is being given them. The low percentage of compliance does not necessarily mean an unwillingness to cor1- ply, but indicates Q lack of complete knowledge of the regulation. We are confident that as the survey continues increased compliance will be found.
 However, the information is available to every retailer through his local rationing board or direct- ly from the State OPA Office. It is physically impossible for Q small group of regional or state office in- spectors to visit every store in New England. So, although we will go as far as we can with direct education of the retailers, the actual respon- sibility for learning and under standing the contents of the regu- lation, falls upon the individudal stcrekeeper.
 Tn order to be fair with the rec tallers, OPA has been doing this lob the hard way. However, the time is not far off when we must insist on compliance. There are def- mite penalties which are within our power to invoke and we shall use them if necessary. Retailers should not wait for our surveyors to call on them. It is their respon. sibility to comply and, in fairness to the public as well as those who are cooperating, we must insist on immediate compliance.
 Providence and Augusta are the first two cities to be visited in the survey which will touch each New England state. Twenty surveyors working under the direction of J. H. Noonan, R1gional Price Execu- tive. started in Providence on Monday and will have visited 1000 stores when the survey ends there on Saturday.
 The Augusta survey which also began on Monday was completed Tuesday night. Tn that city 100 stores were visited by five surveyors under Prescott H. Vose, Main State OPA Price Executive.
 The Augusta report by MT. Vose showed that of the S7 stores visited 2i of them were complying fully, 40 others showed partial compliance and % showed no compliance.
 Tn Providence, MT. Noonans group visited 37S stores during Mon day and Tuesday. Of that number 20 were complying fully, 9l showed partial compliance and 2SS showed no compliance. ,..
 Next Monday the surveys VIII start in Hartford, Ct., Concord, N. H., Montpelier, Vt., and Portland, Me.

 The other coupon books to be used in the plan will resemble the "A" book, except in color of tlie printing, and number of coupons.
 'The "A" books, printed in black, will be available to every registered automobile owner. "B" and "C' books, which provide supplemental rations, will be printed in green and red, respectively. ID" books, which are for motorcycles, will be in blue, the "S'' which Is for trucks, busses, etc., will be brown, and "E' and "R" books, for on-highway uses, will be orange and purple, respectively.
 The "A"'books may be obtained at time of registration. All other books must be applied for at local ra- .tioning board.

Boston, June 11-Preliminary re- ports of the survey of price post ing in New England stores show an extremely low percentage of com- pliance with the General Maximum Price Regulation, 1t was disclosed today by Kenneth B. Backman, N. E. Regional OPA Administrator, 17 Court street.
 While S78 stores visited in Provi- dence, R. l., during the first two days of the survey show but 7.7 per cent compliance with the price post ing regulation, a complete survey of Augusta, Me-, showed that 22 per cent of the 97 stores visited were complying. The surveys include in- dependent and local chain stores.

First "A" Gasoline
 Coupon Books Ready
Book Contains Sheets of 8 Coupons; Each Sheet Good for TwO-MOntI1 Period

Boston, June l1-First copies of the new "A" gasoline coupon book, which motorists in the east coast . rationed area will need to obtain their basic rations of gasoline when the coupon plan goes into effect in July, are ready, 1t was a1lnounced } by Kenneth B. Backman, N. D. Re- gional OPA Administrator, 17 Court Street.
 ,.. The book, which will fit into 8 wallet or a vest pocket, contains six sheets of eight coupons each. These a 48 coupons represent 8 years supply of gasoline for the holder.
 Each sheet of coupons will be good for c two-month period. The six coupons on the first sheet are mark ed "A-1" which means that they may be used at any time during the first two months after the plan goes into effect. Coupons on the follow ing sheets are numbered "A-2", "A g., etc., and will be good during the respective two-nonth periods.
 The coupons may be accumulated within the several periods, but url- used coupons are void after the per- iod for which they were issued is over.
 On the outside of the front cover, the book will carry description of the car for which the book is is- sued, as well as the name and ad- dress of the owner. Service station attendants will be directed to honor the book only for gasoline he de- livers into the tank of the car Qe- scribed. on the book.

 At present, journeymen elec- tricians need not be licensed, the only requirement. being that elec- trical contractors be licensed. MT. O'Rourke says that licensing of journeymen will be major step forward.
 The entire new electrical code is based on the national model cleo trical code, which has the approval of electrical experts, safety leaders ard authorities in the field.

JUNIOR REPUBLIC IN WAR PROGRAM
YOuth= Governed School to Play Important Role
 in All-Out War Effort

For the first time in a score of years the Junior Republic summer program has become one of inten- sive production with vacations so arranged that at all times there are at least half the faculty and citi- zens carrying on an agricultural and maintenance program which is cer- tain to assure food production from the farm lands far surpassing previous years.
 Of the 100 boys at the school, all are contributing their time as a part in the production program now under way.
 Each week a different group is assigned to either the farm or main- tenance program and the results are evident not only in the excel lent condition of the crops but in the splendid physical condition of the boys.
 Farm Manager Larson reports that approximately 2S acres are un- der cultivation at present or will be available for Fall planting. Several friends of the Republic in Litchfield have granted the use of some of their land to the school for raising various crops. Among the friends are Miss Elizabeth P. Renshaw, Mir Danford Barney, MT. E. T. Leaper and the Colgate estate. Nearly four acres of potatoes are in fine shape on the Renshaw land and other crops are doing well in the fields at the school.
 An innovation which MT Larson has introduced at the school Is the planting of sunffower seed to raise a roughage crop for winter and spring feeding. Following the har- vesting of e crop of clover hay re-
