1 Keep Up With the Tim FUl VOLUME IV, NUMBER 31 S SugarCoupons Are Being Returned Because of the generous response >of Greensburghers to a call for extra coupons made during the week-end by the local war prloe and ration hoard, there will be more sugar to go around for those 50,000 people still waiting for their share of canning sugar, said Chairman E. D. Yost. Yost, Saturday, made an ap1 peal to those persons who were issued more thna 10 pounds of canning sugar to return some'of X their coupons. Having already issued approximately 424,000 pounds of sugar out of an overall quota of 632,000 pounds, the board has only 208,000 pounds of its allotted amount left for tbose 50,000 applicants sti'll not supplied. Since that amount would supply less than five pounds per person, there was nothing left to do but ask those, already issued sugar to bring back all coupons they can spare to make it possible for other people to can this summer. In answer to that request for fair play, a number of people have brought back coupons and others have telephoned the board that they will return coupons at earliest opportunity. Yost urged that, all persons who can turn coupons back in do so immediately. At the end of the week, board officials hope to be alble to add up the total remaining of the quota and the pounds returned and then start issuing canning sugar to those 50,000 waiting canners. The chairman pointed out that the situation that has arisen in the canning sugar issuance was unavoidable. The board received its quota assignment after it had already Issued 4?4,000 pounds to early applicants. Then when its allotment was cut, there was no alternative than to decrease amounts for each applicant, he said. . i DISEASE CONTROL MEETING HELD Open forum discussion on venereal disease featured a meeting held this week in connection with the current disease control campign in the civic center for women employees of Burlington Mills corporatoin and their guests.
