'R" Coupons Not Good
AT Filling Stations

Amendment No. Ill, of OPA
Gas Regulations, effective April 1,
1914, prohibits the use of "R" cou-
pons for transfer of gasoline at
the premises of retail outlets un-
less this outlet obtains special per-
mission of the District office to
make such transfer. Very few
gas stations in the county will be
able to qualify for permission as at
least 500 of their prior business
must have consisted of bulk trans
fer of gasoline. The OPA has
found that large number of "R"
coupons have been used illegally
for other than non-highway use
and users of this type of ration
are being encouraged to have de-
livery of their gasoline made by
their supplier directly to storage
facilities located at the point of
useage. The restrictions on the
use of "R' coupons at filling sta
tons are not intended to disrupt
regular buying practice or to place
an urdue hardship on the con-
sumner. Therefore under certain
conditions the local board will ex-
change the necessary number
of ar" coupons for "E" coupons
which can be accepted at all filling
stations.
