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. .
