Washington Shoe rationing
is expected to end in two months
at the outside and may be lifted
within two weeks, it was disclosed
this week.
This prospect that still another
civilian necessity soon may drop
from the ration list came as the
nation enjoyed it's first Sunday
driving since early in the war.
Fill 'er up" was the watchword
as hundreds of thousands motored
to beaches, mountains and other
long-unattainable retreats.
Highways were damned for the
first time in three years.
A survey of War Production
Board and OPA officials showed
that the end of shoe rationing is
not far off. Completion of sup
ply and production statistics ap-
parently is the only thing delay
ing it. AS one WPB official said:
'Tt's no pleasure to ration shoes
when everything else is going off
the ration list"

Of Many School
Children Planned
County Secures Some New
School Buses; Expect More
This Fall

When schools open on Monday
it is expected that around $500
school children will be transport
ed to school.
This problem of transportation
is an important one and in addi-
ton to trained drivers, all con-
veyances must be kept in the best
possible condition.
Harry Koontz, who is in charge
of the county garage, pointed out
yesterday that the county had
secured two new school buses for
the opening of the school and that
three more were expected by
Thanksgiving to replace some OF
the older Snes. AS far as it is
possible, all old school buses have
been re-conditioned.
A school for bus drivers was
held last week and another has
been planned for Friday by c. r.
Simpson, of the highway safety
division.
Mr.. Simpson pointed out here
that girl drivers throughout the
state had made unusually fine
safety records. "Of the states
1850 bus drivers, 10 percent are
girls and records show that girls
had less than five percent of all
the accidents" he said and added
that the records prove that girls
are the safest and best drivers
Ashe county has only had one
girl bus driver, Shirley Barker
who finished at Healing Springs
High School last year. He COM
mended her and said, II wish we
could get more like her"
