7" PAGE TWELVE Th OREGON STATESMAN. Salem Oregon, Tuesday Morning, Korember 17 Registration for Gas Ration To Begin Wednesday, Schools; Procedure, Results Explained . At 27 "school buildings throughout Marlon county, operators of motor vehicles will register Wednesday, Thursday "and Friday of this week for gasoline ration books. '-. . '' Every passenger car owner '. (a term liberally interpreted to mean "operator" where title is still held by finance corporation -f or ownership is similarly entangled) is entitled to receive at the time of registration at a school .bouse an "A" ration book. . Not classified as passenger cars for the purpose of gasoline ra tioning are ambulances, hearses , vehicles held ; by : dealer for sale , r resale or operated on dealer li cense plates; taxis, jitneys or ve hicles leased from or held for rental by a car-rental agency . vehicles owned or leased by a fed ' eral, state, local or foreign gov . eminent or government agency; i vehicle which is one of three or more, passenger autos (or three or more motorcycles) owned or leased by and used principally for the same : or similar business - or occupational purposes of the ame person or organization. The "A" book is Intended to provide each automobile with : 1880 miles. in, a year, based on . the present coupon value of four gallons and on the official government mileage estimate of 15 miles to a gallon. Of the 288 miles, 1080 are considered to be available for "family" purposes such as shopping, go- . .inc-to church, or taking chil dren to school. The remaining 1800 are considered as available for occupational driving and no one whose occupational driving - does not exceed 1800 miles a year (150 miles a month) is eligible for or "CT book. Applications for supplemental rations of gasoline, that is, the "B" or "C book, may be made at the schoolhouse when the reg istrant secures - his "A" ration -book! -. The same supplemental , book application blank is used in ap plying for either the "B" or "C book, so the applicant need not know fully at the time of register ing just what additional ration he seeks. ' The blank may be taken home, studiedt, filled out and re turned to the local rationing rationing board, in this case, Sa lem Stayton,; Silverton or Wood burn. Within 10 days the board will act upon, the application and notify applicants of its decision Supplemental books, when grant ed, may be secured at the office of. the board. Just as when orig inally registering,, the person se curing this book must have with him his state motor vehicle regis tration card. To secure the "B" ration book applicants must not only prove they have need for the extra gas oline for occupational automobile uses, but they must also show that they have formed or attempt ed to form car-sharing clubs or that they cannot carry three or more other persons and that alternative means of transporta tion are inadequate. The "B" book is to be "tail ored" by each rationing board to meet Individual needs of motorists to whom it is rrant--ed. This will; be done by ex tending the valid period of the book for those who do not need all of the book's coupons within the three months' period for which it is labeled. Rationing boards will "tailor" the more generous "Cn book with its 64 coupons by tearing out coupons from the book, although more than one "C" book may be issued if necessary. This prac tically unlimited supply of gaso line goes only to those whose oc cupational use of an automobile is so essential to the war effort that he may be considered in one of the "preferred" classifications. Among those who expect to meet "preferred' specifications are Government officials, for per forming : government business. School officials, for official school business. Morticians, physicians and ministers. Highly skilled technicians and cars used for transporting certain essential workers. , The "C" book is secured in ex actly the same manner as that used in -getting the 16-coupon B" book. All coupons are worth four gal lons, or 60 miles, according to the government-figured average. For motorcycles there is a basic ration book "D" with 32 coupons, each worth one and a half gal lons; operators entitled to more gasoline are to be issued addi tional "D" books upon applica tion to their local boards. Non-highway gasoline uses are cared for by ration books "E" and "R", the former with 48 coupons good for one gallon each is sub ject to "tailoring"; the latter, with 96 five-gallon coupons may also be "tailored" to meet user's individual needs. Applications may be secured from rationing boards and are to be mailed back to them, commencing November 18. Trucks, busses and similar vehicles are to operate on ra tion books Tl and T2; their op erators have been filing appli cations through war price and rationing board channels and past several weeks. To all motorists. County Ra tioning Board Chairman John Heltzel on Monday night had this suggestion: "The 'A' book will provide you with immediate right to purchase on or after December 1 as much as 32 gallons of gaso line; if you are convinced that you can meet requirements for either a 'B' or C ration book don't hesitate to use those avail able coupons providing you have mailed back your supplemental book application. Our board with its advisors will act as rapidly as possible to get supplemental books out to you. ODT Extends Truck Signup The office of defence transpor tation has just announced that the effective date for "certificates of war necessity" required by farm truck owners has been postponed from November 15 to December 1, the same date as nation-wide gas oline rationing, acording to Robert E. Rieder, secretary Marion county USDA war board. Any farmer who has not yet re ceived his application for "certifi cate of war necessity" should write as once for such application to the thistles de call 1, xilT.U Vi .1 Villi - Answering the call to arms, Tike Milwaukee Road's great army of, loyal employes are making it their first job to speed the transportation of our fighting men, of the ma chines and munitions of wax.
