DoubU Up
Tho treasury plan, Paul inld,

tribute to stabilization of war

is not yet finished and must be
done beforo tho 1043 quota Is
started. With January already

Is short the following articles:
81 pairs rompers

181 men's and children's bath

Cross executive here, said today.
In the past year, Klamath
county women have given 93,500
hours to Red Cross work In sew
ing and knitting.. They have
mude 6387 garments. The
monthly average was 668 work
ers. All this was done mostly j
in tho early part of the year,
when-the shock of Pearl Harbor
was great. From a high of 102:)
garments made in March, pro
duction fell to a low of 278 gar
ments made in November. The
need Is greater now than in early
1042 and Is increasing instead of
diminishing, Mrs. Dennis said.
Quilts are greatly needed for
local emergency use. The entire
supply has been given to fami
lies burned out in the past three
months. These quilts should be
the old-fashioned tied "comfort
er" type and can be made of
practically any available mate
rial. "Klamath Is making its war

pointed out. "This is an appeal

BUTTER RiTHG
I he creameries of Klamath Falls have been
forced to ration butter to all Stores, Hotels and
Restaurants.
O
Your Grocer can now have only one-half as much
butter as he has had in the past. This means that
each home will of necessity be cut to one-half
the amount of butter it is accustomed to have.
We urge your cooperation.
The order, that "one pound out of every three pounds of butter
manufactured anywhere in the United States, must go to the
Government for our Armed Forces," effects ALL creameries
in ALL the states.
In addition, bad weather, the high cost of feed, and the short
age, as well as the high cost of labor, has caused an unpre
cedented drop in the production of cream for butter . . . thus
causing an additional shortage in the amount of butter manu
factured. '." .' ,
OF KLAMATH FALLS
B, C Gas Card Holders May,
Obtain Renewals by Mail
Motorists holding supplemen
tal B and C gasoline rations
may obtain renewals by mall
rather than by appearing per
sonally before local war price
and rationing boards, the state
OPA announced today.
The simplified method for re
newing rations for essential
mileage will apply also to re
newals for non-highway rations,
such as 'gasoline, powered farm
equipment and industrial ma
chinery. Authorization for this
procedure is contained in an
amendment to the mileage ra
tioning regulations.
New forms for renewal ap
plications are expected to reach
Oregon in a few days. As soon
as they are received, OPA will
announce where they can be ob
tained. - The new forms take
the place of the present renew
al certificate attached to the
original application for supple
mental rations, OPA explained.
On the new form the appli
cant' will restate his driving
needs for the next period, then
mail it, together with his tire
inspection record, to his ration
ing board.
The board will write on the
tire record the number identi
fying the new ration book. Thus
the tire record in the future
will be a record of both tire in
spections and ration books is
sued to the holder. . ,
When a board renews a ra
tion, It may mall the coupon
book to the applicant, and the
tire inspection record, properly
noted, will be sent back at the
same time. '
If there has been substantial
change in the applicant's needs,
he will be asked to fill out the
regular form for new rations.
This form can also be mallerf
to the rationing board if it is
accompanied by tho tire inspect
tion record for the car.
