When they ask politely
Where's the beer?' Bert points

"All you got TO do" he says,
sis work your way out TO IT."
Well, Bert's idea has caught

A major complaint 70
months, especially in the East
during the ban on pleasure
driving, has been that "A" card
motorists have been unduly Pc
nalized because of overly-liberal
allowances to those using their
cars for occupational driving.
SQUEEZE OUT WATER
1T is imperative" OPA said
in a statement, that all water
be squeezed out of supplemental
rations and that b and C cou-
pons in the hands of motorists
represent only gasoline they
actually need for occupational
use.
"One way to reduce this is to
reduce coupon values, and to
make special provision for cases
of extreme hardship, and we
have decided this is the SIM
plest, fairest way to meet the
present problem"
OPA promised special con-
sideration for grave hardship"
cases and TO see that every es-
sential worker with a full car
gets to his job"
But each request for extra
gasoline will be scrutinized
closely" it said. I'VE urge
every car owner TO think twice
before he asks his already over
burdened ration board for con-
sideration.

and pointed to government warn
ing issued more than year ago
that no defense stamp-chain-l letter
scheme will ever be sanctioned by
the government, and that it will
make every effort to stop such lille
gal schemes.
Many of the local participants
are believed to be ignorant" of the
illegality of the schemes, said to be
endless" and are sWayed by fowery
language, sly threats, appeals of 10y
atty and promises of gain. Most Of
the senders realize their loss in due
time, it was pointed out.
One local woman, movably dis
turbed, called at the postoffice a few
days ago and told of a large sum
of money recently sent in one of the
schemes, saying she waited in vain
for some return. She submitted in
formation on the names appearing
on the chain, and possible tracing
of the source was indicated.
Amusement was expressed that To-
cal business men should be among
the hackers of the current chains.
Several others, who were not so
quickly influenced, have requested
information on the authenticity of
the practice, and warning has
been issued to them.
