Details on Rationing to
Be Started in February
VEHICLE SIGN-UP
t -Owners of commercial motor
vehicles in the west were re
minded today- that all "idle"
trucks, buses and other ve
hiclesexcept taxicabs, rental
cars, ambulances and . hearses
must be reported to the office of
defense transportation.
- Reports should be made on
ODT CWN-3, a simple, single
sheet "form of only eight ques
tions which' can be obtained from
and should be returned to ve
hicle owners' local ODT district
office..
. Owners are required to list
all commercial motor vehicles
which were idle during the last
14 days of tht month.. The re
port should bfl filed within five
days after the last day ox we
month covered by the form.
. . Commercial vehicle owners
with, no idle equipment are not
required to submit a report.
"Purpose of the monthly report
is to enable the our to deter
mine what proportion of the na
tion's commercial motor vehicles
are actually In use, and also how
many trucks, buses, etc., are be
ing unused and might be avail
able for essential war or civilian
transportation work, the ; ODT
said. ,
Further details on distribution
of war book No. 2, and the
"point system" of rationing it
will govern, were announced to
day by OPA officials.
Highlights were: .

first will be used in purchasing
most processed canned and bot
tled foods and Juices, will be dis
tributed during February at
school sites.
2. Retail sale of all foods -to
be rationed under this program
will be halted for a period of
one week, during which books
will be distributed.
3. Actual rationing will begin
Immediately upon completion of
the week s "freeze."
4. Every person, Including In
fants, will be eligible and the
baby's book can be used to pur
chase, the same amount as. an
adult's.
5. Consumers will have to de
clare their supply of rationed
foods as of the "freezing date"
and coupons will be removed
from the book for all excess sup
plies on hand.
6. The exact amount oi ration
ed food to be considered "nor
mal" will be announced later.
7. War book No. 2 will be
used for rationing meats soon
after its distribution. Likewise,
it will be used for other com-.
moditles when shortages become
acute. - 1
Only One Blank
To get book No. 2, Mrs. House
wife must first fill out a con
sumers declaration - form, - on

Chester Rowel I
Believed U. S. Wants
Non-Isolation Peace
PORTLAND, Jan. 22 (JP)
Chester H. Rowell, associate
editor of the" San Francisco
Chronicle, said today, he be
lieves that the American people
are in favor of a peace -that
calls for international coopera
tion in military and political
problems.
But,, he-said in an interview,
considerable education will- be
necessary to make the public
accept economic cooperation as
well. . - . :
He condemned those who ad-
.vocate waiting until the war is
won before talking about peace.
"If we do that we won't win
the peace and that means
other war," Rowell said.
.FASTER, PLEASE 1
SPRINGFIELD, Mo.. OP)
Mrs. G. E. Campbell read in
the paper that Fire Chief W. B.
Price said, citizens should not
thaw out ' frozen -pipes with
blowtorches.
She hurried to the kitchen to
tell her husband about it
Flames were already, flashing
up . the wall. .;.-:
laratlon forms at home to save
time at registration sites.
Coffee also must be declared
and stamps for all coffee over
the allowed amount will be re
moved from war book No. 1
which will continue to serve as
coffee-sugar book.
If any stamps are missing
from books held in the name of
children under 15, the same num
ber of missing stamps will be
taken from books held by adult
members of the family.
Foods Listed
Housewives should remember
that all home-preserved foods in
cluding vegetables and fruits are
exempt from" rationing. They
may retain on hand any amount,
and they need not report them in
their declarations.
Processed food to be rationed
and declared include commer
cially packed canned fruits, veg
etables, fruit and vegetable
juices, canned soup,-chili sauce
and catsup. " . "
Those not "scheduled for ra
tioning, and which will not have
to be declared include: jellies,
jams, preserves, canned meat,
fish, ollyes, relish, pickles, spa
ghetti, macaroni, noodles and
frozen or dried foods.
The "point system" can best
be explained, say experts, by
taking an arbitrary figure of say,
48. points, for each person, per
month.
This would mean that, If beans
were given a 1-polnt value, each
person would be able to buy 48
cans of beans each month. If,
however, asparagus were given
an 8-point value, . each person
would be able to purchase only
6 cans per month.
Value May Chang .
The -stamps will have values
of 1, 2, 5 and 8 points.
' Scarce commodities will have
a high point value to retard pur
chase of that particular Item,
whereas - commodities available
In abundance will have low point
values, to encourage their pur
chase.
- Should any commodity with a
low point -value suddenly be
come scarce Its point-value will
be Increased.
These changes in point values,
the government figures, will oc
cur hot more than once a month
when purchasing-trends will be
checked on a national basis.

FLYER TELLS
OBSTACLES TO
BOMBING J
APAN
By WALTER B. CLAUSEN
HONOLULU. T. H.. Jan. 22
()Captain Ralph A. Oftsie of
Everett, Wash., aviation officer
on the staff of Admiral Chester
W. Nlmitz, declared yesterday
that the bombing of Japan re
mains on the list of future war
missions. '
"There are reasons, however,
why it can hardly become a mat
ter of regular routine," ho told
the Honolulu chamber of commerce..
Speed Flyer
"There is no royal road to
Tokyo. Possibly some of you are
disappointed at the progress be
ing made. You may have felt
that 'bomb Japan' should be
first on the list of missions as
signed, and, that properly car
ried out, such a course would
result in early termination of
the war."
Captain Oftsie Is a distinguish
ed speed flyer who participated
in 1925 in the Schneider Cup
races with Jimmy Doolittle,
famed leader of the bombers of
Tokyo who was then an army
captain.
Forecasts Uncertain
Telling of the great obstacles
to be overcome, including the
great distances to be covered,
Captain Oftsie pointed out the
intricacies of the weather.
"Observation stations and ade
quate weather forecasts are few
and far between," he said,
'Atolls and adjacent waters are
poorly and inaccurately charted
The carrier and its aircraft give
us the one means of reaching
back of the Japanese.
As our new carriers come
Into service in increasing num
bers, it may-be expected that
carrier-based aircraft will play
an ever-Increasing part in break
ing enemy power at sea and in
the air."
