Tuesday; April 21, 1942 The Capitol Journal, Salem, Oregon Three West Salem Sugar Rationing Outlined West Salem, April 21 The principal plans for the sugar rationing were completed at the meeting of the local ration ing board last night in cooperatwji with Leighton Dashiell, head ot the school, through wmcn; the sugar rationing will be handled. The area to be under the Juris diction of the board will be the same as that of the tire rationing district No. 27-0, which is com. prised of all territory in Polk coun. ty that lies north of the Salem. Dallas hiEhway. and east of high' way No. 99. A rationing advisor will be named for the district. Tradesmen (stores, cafes, canner- Sugar Ration Advice Given By Authority Qal Arthur J. Krauss, rationing ad ministrative assistant for sugar wants a few things understood bout sugar rationing, before we all sign up beginning May 4th, First: Don't worry about how much sugar you have on hand. Go ' down to the local school house and sign up, declare what is on hand for none will be taken away from you. '. Second: Don't worry about exactly how much sugar you have on hand. Housewives have called in and ask ed if they should buy scales upon which to weigh their sugar. All Uncle Sam is Interested In Is about how much you have. If you bought a 100-pound sack and It Is about half full you have approximately 50 pounds. If you bought a 10 pound bag and It is two thirds full you have 7 pounds. , You are not going to be branded as a hoarder.. The sugar rationing boards of the Pacific Northwest are well aware that a great many people In this area have been In the cus tom of purchasing sugar by the 100 Jpound sacks. This was not the cus tom In the apartment-house-livlng-East where a 100-pound sack would fill up the kitchen, but It has been In the west. It is definitely not hoarding, and you will be allowed to retain all or any portion of this 100-pound sack. Of course if you acquired the habit since Pearl Harbor and let it run away with you to the tune of half . a dozen sacks, Krauss rec ommends you quietly sell back a few of the sacks so you will not feel ashamed of yourself. ; However, don't forget to" register, because you are registering for war ration books, not just sugarratlon books, and don't misrepresent, your sugar' stock ' because everyone ' is in this equally. The war'may last-long enough for .you to be found out, and that would be embarrassing to explain to veterans from Bataan. f "We -must approach rationing In' a reasonable manner," 'Krauss said. "There is. to be no hair splitting. We know that 99 per cent of the people of the United States want and Intend to cooperate with their government. Their government in tends to cooperate just as whole heartedly with them. "As for the one per cent they will be taken care of in due time In .the American way, for we are all in this equally. .' , ; "The rationing administration will do everything possible to ex plain the details or the program. We are happy to answer any ques tions. But we want everyone to be assured that it will be conducted with the usual American common sense, in the usual American co operative spirit. "The fundamental idea Is that Very Individual receives the same Consideration and the same amount of sugar." les, etc.) will register at the West Salem school on Third street, April 28 and 29, and the consumers at the same headquarters May 4, 5, 6 and 7, Registrations will be in charge of the faculty members and mem bers of the PTA, "Safety Sams" Received The highway department deliver ed four "Safety Sammies" to the school Monday for use in the streets adjacent to the buildings as a pro. tectlve measure during the hours In which children are coming to or leaving the school.
