Officials of the Office of Defense Transportation said rationing of passenger space on railroads and inter-city busses was in prospect within the next few montns, but that no decisions had been reached on just how this would be done?by issuance of i credentials to "essential" travel ers or some less formal method. The ODT published a manual to be sent to every community over 10,000 outlining a system for staggering hours and promoting group use of automobiles. Joseph B. Eastman, director, said the aim of staggering hours was to prevent peak loads of factory workers from using more transportation fac'lities at the same hours as school children, office workers and shoppers. The ODT manual, saying some workers would soon find themselves with only three usable j tires, suggested "an exchange I should therefore be setup which ighting Men t n r I D C FED i and Oils, With Vitaproduce an abundance of Soy Beans; Beef, Pork and Corn.
