Ration Cut in
Eating Places

Washington. Feb. 24-UP Sup
plies OF rationed foodstuffs for
more than 100000 hotels, restaur.
ants and canteens will be slashed
between 40 and 50 per cent on
March |, it was learned today.
The cut for the smallest type OF
eating place. such as hot-dog and
hamburger stands, will be only 20
per cent.
Rationing authorities indicated
that the result probably would be
skimpier menus and small portions
in restaurants.
The time may come, II was be
lieved. when many restaurants will
have TO turn away guests or close
down in the evening when their
supplies OF rationed food are ex-
hausted.
An order announcing the cut was
expected to be issued today by the
Office Of Price Administration.
Officials said the cut Is being
made to ensure that people who eat
regularly in restaurants are sub
jected TO approximately the same
restric. ions as home consumers.
