Martin j. Fitzgerald Dies After Short Illness

Thomaston, July 16-The Thorn
aston Press states that issuance of

was stated today by Roland Cuth-
bert of the gas panel of the local
War Price and Rationing board who
announced that permit blanks had
been received today, the first such
pleasure driving is allowed.
Permits for such vacation trips
will be issued only when applicants
can exhibit to the board sufficient
number of "a" coupons to cover the
amount of gasoline that will be con-
sumed during the trip. Persons TAX
ing trips without one of these per-
mits will be liable to severe penalties,
OPA officials have emphatically
stated.
According to Mr.. Cuthbert, per-
sons desiring permits may make ap-
plications daily at the Office in the
town hall and one of the members
OF the panel will undoubtedly act
upon the application before the fol-
lowing day.
1t is expected that large number
of applications will be received
starting next week, particularly, in
asmuch as the next series, No. 6
OF the "A' coupons will become valid

Meanwhile in Hartford, Chester
BoWles, state OPA director, stated
that if you're taking the children

Families going away with chill
dren and all the necessary vacation
paraphernalia are certainly not go
ing to be expected to use BUSES or
trains even if they are convenient"
The decision on all applications
will be left with local boards, said
Mr.. Bowles, adding, Il think you
will find that most local boards are
going to use plenty of common
horse sense in making this deci-
