The policemen who handed out
the tickets reported that the
recipients accepted them grace

take the view that being ticketed
for walking was amusing and
worth the amount of the fine.
The greatest improvement from
the standpoint of pedestrians was
in the behavior of motorists
making right and left turns. Most
motorists waited courteously and
legally until the pedestrians
reached a neutral corner.
The pedestrians returned the
courtesy by waiting for green
lights.

A further sharp cut in the
amount of gasoline available for
motorists in the East and Paclflc
Northwest was forecast today,
pending development of a card
rationing system.
Ralph K. Davies, deputy petro-
leum co-ordinator, said it was clear
that the recent 20 per cent reduction
in filling station supplies was not
sufficient, and that "the curtailment
will have to go deeper than that"
Oil industry sources said it was
probable that the supply for filling
stations would have TO be cut to
33ls per cent below normal. and
that the new cut would be effective
within a week.
When moving oil into this mar
ket means the loss of life and the
loss of ships. we are not justified
in providing anything more than the
