Prices are to be the same as those charged during the week, April 4-10, 1943, except that coffee is to be five cents a cup or pot unless the establishment charged more during the week, Oct ober 4-10, 1942- While ceiling prices on their post ers must be week-day prices, those concerns that charged more for Sun day meals may continue such extra charge. Exempt from the regulation under certain conditions are places operated by schools, colleges, fra ternities, hospitals, private clubs and recognized charitiable, religious and cultural organizations.

Trtasury Dtpartmtnt July Weather Breaks No Records But Is Rainy and Delightfully Cool MONTHLY SUMMARY NO. 228' By Charles Macauley “For the rain it raineth every day” or so it seemed in the sodden Sand- hiils, but as a matter of fact we had less rain and twice as many clear days as in July of 1943, when rain fall and cloudy days broke two rec ords- With the exception of a few days the month was delightfully cool, the average temperature fall ing 3.8 degrees lower than the long time normal average. Sixteen dayS; were all clear, elev en days partly cloudy, four days cloudy and fifteen days or nights re ceiving more or less rain. The month was cool, six days registering 90 or more degrees with a high of 94 de grees on the 27th. Rainfall was er ratic, heavy showers falling for a few hours in localized areas. Total precipitation for the month was 10.13 inches, 2.78 inches more than the normal expectation. The heaviest rainfall occurred on the 14th when 3.80 inches of rain was recorded, most of which was precipitated be tween two and three o’clock in the afternoon. Excess for the first seven months of the year is now 15.88 inches. Raleigh reports only 2.31 inches. The lowest temperature of the month was 55 degrees, registered on July 4th. The holiday was clear with 'a northeast breeze. St. Swithin’s Day, the 15th, gave us scattered ishowers. Long time Max. Min.

Johnson, Raleigh Dis trict OPA director, declared today that farm and processed butter point values are NOT changed in any way —although creamery butter point values have gone from 12 to 16 points per pound. Re-worked, or processed butter is still four points per pound and farm butter is eight points per pound. Creamery butter is now 16 points per pound. Restaurants Must Post Ceiling Prices By Aug. 16 WHAT DO YOU MEAN- SACRIFICE? We speak of sacrifice here in America. Yet none has the right- to unless he has lost an arm or a leg or a life—or a son. Is rationing a sacrifice? Not un til that day when you must leave the table hungry. Is buying bonds a sacrifice? Not /until a gilt-edged security can be called a “sacrifice”. Have you bought enough bonds? Rationing officials have estima ted that black market operations in gasoline have daily drained 2,500,- 000 gallons from the nation’s avail able supplies. “It is the duty of every Ameri can to see that the war worker has gas enough to get to his place on the production line, that everybody gets his fair share, and that the game is played ‘on the square’.” —^A Clarke Bedford.
