Kiwanians Hear of Appeal For Economy In Public Business
WALLINGTON May 1 Tabulation of gasoline registrating cards was expected today to disclose extent of chiseling among east coast motorists during registration. Unofficial estimates say 75 percent of about 1,500,000 registrants claim essential status and obtain X or H cards. X cards allow unlimited purchases while A cards permit 3 to 2 gallons daily. Local officials threaten severe penalties for fake information, including up to 25 years in prison and heavy fines. Olive oil freight shipment to New York City valued at $36,900 constitutes the city’s most valuable car or freight consigned.
