Ration banking 10 Novice Leased After
Wildcat Makes Show
TO STRAND FIELD PRODUCER
Start This Month
D WASHINGTON, Jan. 9— UP) —
Nation-wide operation of the "ra-
tion banking" program, intended to
ease bookkeeping burdens and speed
the handling of millions of coupons
by rationing boards and dealers.
Pywill start Jan. 27, the Office of
Price Administration announced
Saturday,
The program was tried out first
in the industrial and commercial
area in New York state comprised
of Albany, Troy, Schnectady and
surrounding communities.
Under the program, stamps and
coupons taken in by storekeepers,
wholesalers, and other dealers in
rationed goods will flow back to
primary suppliers through com-
, mercial banks, much in the manner
"that banks act as clearing Houses
for checks. Dealers will have separ-
ate “accounts” in the banks for
each rationed commodity, issuing
checks against the accounts when
they want to replenish their stocks.
0) Beginning Jan 27, the system
must be used by:
1. All retailers of rationed
goods, (sugar and coffee ini-
tially, and processed fruits and
vegetables when these programs
go into effect! whose December
sales of all foods totaled $5,000.
Food retailers whose sales were
less than $5,000 may use ration
accounts, but are not required
to do so. OPA estimated that
about 75 percent of the smaller
food stores would be exempt
from the “must” provision of the
plan.)
2. Chain stores.
3. All food wholesalers and
other food distributors back of
the retail level.
4. All gasoline wholesalers
and other distributors of gas-
oline. except gasoline retailers
who are not permitted to open "
accounts.
The plan will not apply to fuel
oil at the outset.
Consumers will continue to get
their stamps, coupons and certifi-
cates from local boards, just as in
the past.
The system will cost ration de-
positors nothing. OPA reimbursing
banks for costs.
