Gas Stoves Taken
OF Ration List,
.0PA Announces

In line with a scheduled in
crease in the production of gas
stoves for the coming quarter,
gas cooking and heating stoves
were removed from the rationed
list Wednesday, August /. Re-
naming on the list requiring GER
tificates for purchases were oil
cooking and combination oil-gas
stoves and oil conversion burn
ers for stoves, OPA officials said.
OPA and the Department of
Agriculture have collaborated in
endeavoring to find a solution
for the acute shortage of washing
powder and this week announced
a plan for stretching the avail
able supply of heavy-duty pack
aged household soaps in chip,
flake, powdered, granulated and
similar forms. Manufacturers
have been instructed to reduce
the anhydrous soap content by
the addition of Understanding
material. This is not expected to
in any way affect the service
ability of the soaps.
Retail price controls on fresh
cucumbers, sweet peppers and
eggplant have been suspended
for the period during which pro-
duction is such that process nor
mally are kept below retail cell
ing levels.
August quotas of passenger
car tires and small heavy and
lightweight truck tires for civil
ian motorists were the same as
for July, Major w. E. Holcomb,
district OPA director, pointed
out"
'"It will be a long time before
new tires can be granted "A"
book holders" he said. 1T should
be emphasized that these motor
lists may have to roll along for
a long time on their present tires
and should use every conserva-
ton aid"
The new Ration Book Five to
be distributed sometime in De-
cember will be smaller than a
dollar bill and will contain just
half as many stamps, Major
Holcomb said, but will be capa-
BILE of lasting for is months al
though it is hoped rationing will
not be necessary for so long a
period.
Blue stamps Pl through tt
became valid August l and STAINS
now valid for purchase of pro-
cessed foods from W through tt.
Red stamps FL through K1 are
now good for meats and fats,
making stamps from OF through
XII valid.
Sugar stamp SO is still good
for purchase of five pounds of
sugar and will expire August 81
when a new sugar stamp is
scheduled to become valid. Air
plane stamp No. A became good
August | for shoes, nov making
all of the first four airplane
stamps in Book 3 valid.
Gasoline stamps A-16 will be
valid through September 81 and
a new "A" gasoline ration book
is slated to go into use December

HUNTERS 10 BE LIMITED,
 GUN SHELLS
Ration in First Year of Peace Will Be Same as
 Last Year of War

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.--Hunters will be limited to 100 shotgun shells during the forthcoming hunting sea- son.
 Ration in the first year of peace will be no larger than in the last year of war.
 Because of the continued shortage of lead, the War Producton Board announces the same limits as last year will remain in effect.
 In addition to 100 shotgun shells of any gauge, a hunter also may purchase 15O rounds of .22-caliber rim fire cartridges, and 40 rounds of center-fire rifle ammunition or 50 pounds if packaged 50 to the box0 This makes total otf eight boxes of ammunition of all kinds. To get it, a hunter must sign certificate provided by WIPE to suppliers.
 Farmers, ranchers. professional hunters and trappers. including AL askans and Eskimos, may obtain larger allotments by signing cer- tificate saying they need it in con- nection with the safeguarding of crops or the earning of livelihood.
 Apparently anticipating questions from hunters as to why it is neces- sary to continue restrictions, WIPE Chairman J. A. Krug said in statement:
 "The answer is that cartridges used for warfare are too powerful and too large for use in ciyilian-type guns, except for small types of shells used in Army Air Forces training programs"

Commercial salmon fishing show ings in Southeast Alaska, particu- larly, over recent years, pose a prob lem that will require the coopera- tion of all concerned for solution, Dr. Ira Gabrielson, National Dir ector of the Fish and Wildlife Ser vice, declared here this morning.
 He pointed out that for three suc- cessive years Southeast Alaska runs have been very poor and, he added, there are no indications that would give reason for expecting any im- provement.
 Dr. Gabrielson was to leave by plane today for the States, to return to his Washington, D. c. office. At present, he plans no return to Alaska this year.

Millions of Americans crowded into their family cars today and jammed the nations highways to start an fashioned Labor Day holiday in pre-war style.
 It was the first peace-time holi- day weekend in four years. Gaso- line was ration-free and the wea- ther everywhere was due to be sunny and warm, with blue skies and balmy breezes.
 Railroad, bus and air terminals, too, were thronged with vacation seekers heading for resorts and pleasure spots.
