tions, too little gasoline. is just
as plentiful now as when it first
started to affect the great .Ameri-
can public. The chap who sor-
rowfully bemoans the lack Of
thick steaks and the one who lam
ents long automobile trips for va
cations thot used to be, are not
rare cases of complaining. There
are always those in Kennewick
who would chaff when limited,
who would protest the need of
such limiting and rationing, if he
himself was pinched. But also
there are here about us those who
quietly and patiently accept a
reduction of goods and count it
well that they aren't suffering
the deprivations of other countries.
They are cooperating and waiting
that day when the way ends prln-
cipally to call a halt to bloodshed
rather than a return to heavily
stocked larder and new auto tires.
The wars end will not bring an
immediate end to rationing, we
are advised. The British people
don't expect a normal supply of
milk until 1913, of eggs, tomatoes
and candy in 1949 and of meat
and butter in 1850. We may have
a bit of waiting to do on our
own part( over here. Who can
tell?
