Shoe Stamp Is
Is Valid Through
18th of October

Stamp IS in War Ration Book
One becomes good for the purchase
of one pair of rationed shoes next
Wednesday. and will remain valid
through October 81.
The validity period of Stamp IS
is only II days longer than that of
Stamp II. In holding the length
OF the second shoe ration period
to approximately the same as the
first. the official of OPA said that
the rate of purchasing under ra-
tioning had been reduced in line
with wartime curtailments from
the all time high in shoe purchas-
ing set during 1912. However. the
rate remains approximately the
same as set in the period from
1886 through 1941.
In continuing this rate of pur
chase. shoe stamps remain trans
ferable among members of a fam
lily who live in the same household.
enabling a family to pool its stamps
for the benefit of any member who
may need TO buy more than one
pair OF shoes during any ration per
lod.
In cases where a family pool of
stamps is not adequate to fill all
actual needs, extra rations are
available to prevent hardship. If
all the family shoe stamps have
been spent, member of the fam
lily who would suffer hardship be-
cause he needs shoes for work or
general wear may apply to the To-
cal war price and rationing board
for special shoe stamp, good for
the purchase of one pair of shoes.
This special shoe stamp is not
transferable. II may be used only
by the person to whom it is issued.
