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."
