OPA Advice
Burn Voided Stamps,
Consumers Told

W. Earl Fitzgerald, OPA dis
trict director, suggested today
that ration book holders remove
and burn the red and blue stamps
invalidated by government order
last midnight.
He said the step would save
confusion and controversy which
might result should a merchant
carelessly strip the wrong stamps
from a book presented to him by a
customer.
But don't burn your red tokens.
They're Stlll good for meat and
dairy products, although the blue
canned-goods tokens were invali-
dated some time ago.
