Stores Here Warned
On Short Weiqhis

On the ground that householders
face double loss when short
weight is given--now that most food
products are subject to rationing--
the District Weights, Measures and
Markets Department last night
warned it would crack down on re-
tailers If fast" or otherwise mac
curate scales are found in use.
J. r Kennedy, head OF the di-
vision, sent notices to all store own
ers, managers or operators, saying
the day when mere warnings were
issued was ended.
For the past three months, he
said, it had been the practice of
inspectors Of the department on
finding fast scales" to issue warn
ings. The time now has arrived
for the rationing of practically all
commodities which must be weighed
at the time of sale" he said. The
quantities allowed are small, there
fore fast scale now will cause the
percentage of loss TO a customer to
increase.
"A fast scale is apparent at a
glance, therefore the operation of
fast scale is due to carelesSneSs.
All store owners, managers or oper-
ators will be held responsible for
requiring the scale to be set at zero.
No further warnings are TO be
issued. Hereafter. this violation of
the law will be prosecuted"

April Ration Stamps

~ the Associated Press.

~ 'AA~ HSco<ictsa fENss,
April's canned goods ration stamps
became valid today. but housewives
are expected to hold them for an.
other week because Of strong hints
from OPA that their value will be
increased next month.
Future plans were kept secret.
but top oficials implied that some
reduction in the point values OF
many types of processed fruits and
vegetables could be expected, ef-
fective April /.
"a further indication of this came
from a statement Of the American

had dropped so to 95 per cent under

March Stamps End "wednesday.
While 1t may be profitable to hold
April canned goods stamps for q
week, officials reminded that the
March stamps must be spent by mid
night of next Wednesday or they
will become worthless. The March
stamps are the blue A B and G
STAINS. The April issue is the blue
D. E and F.stamps
The red meat-fat-oil-cheese stamps
will be on weekly basis, with only
red A stamps good for the week be-
ginning Monday.
The expected reduction in point
values for canned goods likely will
be of particular benefit to purchasers
OF canned fruits and larger size cans
of both fruits and vegetables. In
some few instances point values may
be increased
The adjustment was described by
officials as the normal type OF
change that can be expected from
time to time.
AS was to be expected, officials
said, many point values were set SO
high that people would not buy.
Now, after nearly months actual
experience, the points can be ad-
justed in line with realistic public
reaction.
Some Of the pressure for change
came from stores which reported
practically no sales of canned goods.
However. many persons had consid-
erable stocks left over from pre-
rationing days and probably waited
until the end OF the month to see
just what items they need most for
their March stamps. $50 !

Intricocies of Rotioninq
Demonstrated to Reporters
OPA Officials Wait on Customers
Supplied With Dummy Coupons

Several dozen newspapermen
learned the intricacies of meat
rationing last night at demonstra-
ton which they will cherish as a
memory at least as long as the war
lasts.
Real meat was used.
1t was lined up especially for the
occasion in the A. & P store at 1879
Benning road NE. Fifteen hun
dred pounds of it. The drooling
newshawks some OF whom had
brought their wives with them, stood
for long time just staring, not
daring to believe.
After while, they ventured to-
ward the counter, where OpA of
ficials decked out in butchers aprons
for the occasion were waiting to
serve them.
1t was the sort of experience after
which life has no meaning.
IS Different Cuts.
Meat for the occasion. according
to William Leach. president of the
Atlantic division of the Atlantic &
Pacific Tea Co. was brought from
as far south as Richmond, Va, and
as far north as Philadelphia.
This is the biggest display of
meat" Mr.. Leach said, that has
been assembled in any Washington
store for the past two months. In
fact, 1t is probably bigger than any
I have seen on the East Coast during
the same time"
Seventy-flve different cuts of meat
were on hand, Newspapermen were
given dummy ration books when
they entered the store and told to
go about their theoretical shopping.
Every cut OF meat on display was
clearly marked as to price and ration
points.
There were a few shocks. One re-
porter thought he would like a ham.
1t weighed 221a pounds and was
worth 9 points per pound. The total,
at 8 points per pound, came to 202l2
points-enough to use up the rations
in one book for three months.
Wives Transfixed.
The wives especially hung over
the Illuminated counters and gazed
transf1xed at generous cuts of red
meat. IT was a sight they hadn't
seen for months.
Led by Paul OLeary, deputy OPA
administrator in charge of ration
ing. the OPA delegation went about
cutting the meats and wrapping
them as part Of the demonstration
There was some evidence that the
Government officials were not ex-
perts. For instance, the man who
couldn't ever seem to get a package
wrapped unless he handled the
wrapping paper like adhesive tape
and kept winding 1t around a ham
until 1t looked as if 1t was covered.
AS they wrapped they explained.
That made it clear that the average
family could not very often afford
to buy beef roast unless Ii wanted
to sacrifice all other kinds of meat.
cheese, butter, margarine and fats.
The scales at the A. e. P. store are
adjusted so that the clerks can tell
the point value as quickly as they
can the price. The point value will
be marked on the package just be
low the price, both TO be paid at the

OPA officials described the AMI

The AMI statement follows:

Our suggestions are embodied In a
