Fuel Oil To Be Tight

Users of fuel oil may face a critical
distribution problem this fall and for
that reason are urged by OPA to fill
up their tanks as soon as they receive
their rations from their local War
Price and Rationing Board.
Military needs for fuel oil are con-
tinuing to increase, according to Ches-
ter Bowles, and may reach a peak
when civilian fuel oil needs are heavi-
est. For that reason OPA is urging
all users of fuel oil to fill their tanks
NOW SO that their suppliers can lay
in additional supplies for next winters
use.
Period ! coupon of the 1945-46 heat.
ing season is now valid. The period
and 5 of the 1943-44 heating season
and period / to of the 1944-45 heat
ing season, are good through August
81
Local boards are prepared to handle
all applications promptly and are urg-
ing consumers to place orders for fuel
oil just as soon as they receive theil
rations.
