Great Britain Orders Rationing of Gasoline Effective December 17 London (U.P.) Britain today ordered a return to wartime gas oline rationing Dec. 17 to stretch its dwindling petroleum supplies until the Suez Canal can be cleared. With three-fourths of Europe's normal supply cut off by block ing of the Suez Canal and sabo tage to pipelines in the Mideast, Fuel Minister Aubrey Jones an nounced in Parliament that post offices will begin issuing ration books to car owners Thursday. Other Supplies Limited This move in Britain 'was the first imposition of outright ra tioning in the wake of the Suez Canal closing. Other European countries had imposed a modi fied form of rationing by limit ing supplies to distributors. Earlier in the day, France an nounced a quota system for bulk users of fuel oil in the shipping and transportation system. It takes effect at midnight Wednes day. The British emergency decree covers all petroleum users ex cept hospitals and schools. Ordinary motorists, Jones an nounced, will be allowed a basic ration for travel equivalent to 200 miles a month. Essential users will be given supplementary couponsv Jones said the first ration books, a grim reminder of war time when practically all Brit ons had to abandon their cars to daraoac will -rr niir.mnil. I ; j i n pci iuu u nit net, j. ( . Experts said, however, that rationing probably will have to continue through most of 1957. It will take at least four to six months to clear some 49 sunken ships from the Suez Canal once the work begins, and a lona time after that to build stockpiles back to normal levels.
