Meat And Shoes
Ration Free
By January

The public received it's first fiat
guarantee on Friday that all meat
and shoe rationing will be over by
the end of the year.
The promise was made by Price
Chief Chester Bowles in a letter to
members of OPA's industry advisors
committees asking their advice OH
when price controls should be elm
mated.
Noting that gasoline, fuel oil, pro-
cessed foods, oil stoves, tractor tires
and cheese had already been remoy-
ed from rationing, Bowles said:
'Shoes and meat will come off the
list by the end of 1945-perhaps
sooner. Tires and fats and oils will
probably come off early in 1946. That
will leave only sugar from a three
year ratiotning program affecting the
lives of every American citizen"
He did not indicate when sugar
could be taken off rationing except
to say it would be when suppl
catches up with demand" That day
is not yet in sight.
The OPA has already announced
that one third of all meats would be
ration free beginning Oct. l. Final
removal of the other two thirds
might come at any time after that.
Bowles made it plain that he still
is nightly afraid of postwar infia-
tion and therefore wants to continue
price controls on many items at least
until the middle of next year.

For most of us it just meant an
hours extra nap on morning when
we could sleep anyhow.
An extra hour at work was the
tate of persons on all night jobs
Ind think of their paymaster's head

we're on the job, or in the office, or
