If car owners want to continue

time to get a tire Inspection re

(Ry the Associated Press)
Nation wide gasoline rationing
became effective today, ending a
wild scramble by motorists to lay
in a reserve stock liquor as well
as gasoline for emergencies.
They stored their precious fuel
In everything from abandoned
filling stations to open dishpans,
despite frantic warnings from
fire department officials.
Even before the midnight ra
tioning deadline, two fires wore
blamed on the makeshift storage
devices and at least one man was
burned severely.
While the remainder of tho
nation was engrossed with gaso
line storage there was another
rush down in dry Oklahoma- to
slock up on liquor before the
four-gallon a week quota became
effective and slopped travel to
nearby wet states.
And state law enforcement of
ficers fondly hoped the rationing
would eliminate bootleggers -just
as sugar rationing already
has eliminated moonshiners to a
large extent.
Already a pint of bourbon is
quoted at $fi, and Safety Director
Walter John said that while big
hoot loggers might he able to pool
their gasoline supplies the price
of the small quantities available
would he so high the average
man wouldn't know any was on
tho market.
Tulsa, officers reported that
highways from Joplin, Mo., and
l-ort Smith. Ark., have been car
rying heavy traffic in recent
weeks, most of it motorists bring
ing home a case or two of liquor.
Texas Also Has Worries.
Klsewheli', though it was gaso
line thai was worrying motor car
owners and fire departments.
State and federal officials over
in Potior county. Texas, were,
worrying, right along with pri
vate motorists.
The rationing board at Amaril-1
lo voted unanimously to reject I
preferred mileage applications of
all stale and federal agencies ex
cept those engaged in police
work.
Those turned down included
the deputy collector of internal
revenue, tax enforcement m,-n :'n
the slate comptroller's office, and
all government agencies ihe
hoard considered lo be competing
with private concerns such as
loan and invesment companies. !
In case you're anxious lo get
next week's ration ahead of lime,

THIS IS IMPORTANT
IT-TO-DATK bean cookery suggests
that to cook navy, lima, pink and red,
kidney or cranberry beans, you pick
over beans carefully, removing any
damaged beans or foreign particles.
Wash well in sieve or bowl. Do not
soak. Improved agricultural methods
have made it possible to produce more
tender beans with tcmler skins. Soak
ing will cut cooking time about one
third, but makes beans mushy and un
attractive. Place in kettle at least 4
limes greater in volume than beans.
Add hot water to cover and I tsp. salt
for each cup beans and cover. Cook at
simmering temjcraturc until beans are
tender, to 3 hours. Add more water
as needed to keep beans well covered
during cooking.
l.imas should be soaked in water to
cover 6 to 8 hours or over night as they
cling to their tough outer skin.
