Price Panel For
County Planned;
Inspectors Meet
Fuel Oil Users Who Have Not
Received Ration Sheets
Should Notify Board

A Price Panel, to work in CO.
operation with the General Max
imum Price Regulations, is be-
ing established to serve Ashe
county. The work of this panel
will be Investigations and surveys
of price endorsements in the
county. The members of the pam
el will be announced next week.
Ralph Campbell, OPA clerk,
said here this week that several
merchants of the county have
not filed their maximum price re-
ports with his office. Those who
have failed to file this report
have been repeatedly notified
and given instructions for such
filing, and it is of the utmost i'm
portance that they do this inn
mediately, for failure to do so
will be judged a violation of OPA
regulations which will necessarily
have to be considered as such.
Mr.. Campbell said that if any
person using fuel oil had not re-
ceived their fuel oil ration sheets
should notify the OPA office here
Immediately.
Mr. Campbell said, this after
noon at 2, there will be meeting
of all county tire inspectors at
the local ration board office. This
meeting will be conducted by G.
T. Walker, Field Rationing OFF,
Ger from Winston-Salem, and 9TH
ers. It is Of the greatest impor-
lance that all tire inspectors at
tend this meeting.
No dates have been received
for the issuance of War Ration
Book No. 2, or sugar ration
book" but it will be necessary
for all citizens to have No. be-
fore they can be given No. z
Those who had sugar on hand
and did not need to register for
No. l must register now for No.
l, as No. 2 is issued on the infor-
nation contained in No. l. Dates
for distribution of Book No. z
will be announced as soon as re-
ceived by the ration office, Mr..
Campbell said.
