Local filling stations to close Sundays in Frederick
Frederick motorists face Sunday closure of all city service stations starting March 22 and a 7 am to 7 pm weekday limit. The move aims to conserve scarce gasoline for essential use, with out-of-town buyers currently consuming much of the fuel. Washington also plans rigid gasoline rationing by coupon within six weeks, as Ickes warned of a worsening fuel emergency.
