CANED
DID
FROZEN FOODS
ON RATION LIST
(Continued From Page One)
canned and dried fruits and
vegetables will be needed for
military purposes, said:
"On the average, 33 pounds
of canned, frozen, or dried fruits
and vegetables are expected to
be available for each person in
1943 as compared with an aver
age of about 46 pounds a year
from 1937 to 1941."
"But that doesn't mean," he
said, "we will be poorly fed.
At present assuming that we
meet production goals and that
military and lend-lease needs
stay in line with present esti-
mates it looks as if we will
have a civilian food supply about
as big as we had in the last half
-of the-1930 s."
, System Explained
Prior to the broadcast, Donald
; E. Montgomery, retiring consum
' ers' counsel in the agriculture
' department, issued a statement
'protesting against advance an
nouncement of plans for food
rationing...
Wickard and Elmer Davis,
OWI chief, said advance an-
nouncement was necessary to
give the public time to become
familiar with the point rationing-system,
-which OPA explain-
- ed as follows: -
"W-ith few minor excep
. t ions, such as individuals living
in Institutions every member of
the civilian population from the
new born infant to the oldest
inhabitant will have exactly the
. same number of points to spend
, during each ration period. These
-a. periods will be announced in
Vedvance.
. 96 Stamps
! . "The new point 'currency for
l processed, foods will be repre
. sented by', the blue stamps in
. war ration book two, which con-
' tains both red and blue stamps.
: There are' a' total of 96 blue
, stamps and a numeral on the
. face of each shows its points
; value. Each stamp also bears a
: letter .-of the alphabet. These
- letters designate .the ration- pe-
. nod -when stamps may be used.
"For example,, all blue stamps
! bearing the letters A. and B; or
A through F;. or; any other com-
J ! bination,.- might,' be designated
-; for use during a specific pe
J riod. Since each'. letter of the
; alphabet appears on stamps to-
" tallng IB points-one 8 , one
'8', one '2', and one. '1' the let-
ters made valid in .any one pe
i riod determine the number of
i points that may be spent to buy
'. the rationed foods. If only A
'! and B stamps were validated,
' only r32-points could be spent
. auring the first ration period,
. : while if stamps marked A
. through F were designated, the
'. noider would have 96 points to
,' spena.
Threa Vital Facts
"There are three Important
i. facts to be remembered in- this
i. connection:
" "L The total number of points
that will be allocated to each
civilian has hot yet been deter
.. mined; nor has the specific point
value of any of the foods to be
; rationed. Points will be set for
each commodity according to its
supply at the time the ration pe
riod is announced.
"2:-Possession' of points mere-
ly entitles - you to buy your
, share: you must pay for the ra
tioned merchandise, as usual, in
dollars and cents.
"3. "The 'housewife has com
plete freedom of choice. She
can spend her points any way
she wishes, although, of course
the items that are scarce will
, have a higher point value, and
: hence, will use up her points
taster.

curred at 9:05 p. m. near Wico
pe station 87 miles south of Eu
gene, Ore.
A hospital train took the in
jured to Eugene and the re
mainder of tiie passengers and
crew continued the journey
aboard the first nine cars of the
20 car train which were ahead
of the slide.
There were no Klamath Falls
passengers aboard the third sec
tion of train No. 20 which was
derailed in the Cascade moun
tains 129 miles north of here.
Klamath passengers on Sunday's
... o. 20, including a large num
ber of college students, were on
the first section which passed
through the mountains well
ahead of the slide.
Klamath passenger train serv
ice was disrupted by the slide,
but may be restored by late
Monday or early Tuesday.
No. 20, northbound on Mon
day, went north by way of the
Siskiyou line. Nos. 23, 17 and
15, southbound on Monday, went
south by that route. Southern
Pacific arranged to send Grey
hound buses to Medford to pick
up or take out Klamath pas
sengers on these trains.
Cliff Reeves, district freight
and passenger agent of the
Southern Pacific, visited the
scene of the derailment near
Oakridge Monday morning.
Local wrecking crews were
not called out on the job, which
was being cleaned up from, the
Eugene side. A ditcher crew
from Chiloquin went out to
clear up a slide which occurred
south of the derailment. The
third section of No. 20 struck
one slide and was missed by an
other which came down behind
it. Snow and rain in the moun
tains were blamed for the
slides.
