In bis own interests, every vehicle owner is' asked to apply at once for a new ga soline license and ration coupon book for each of his vehicles. Under the new system, effective April 1, al commercial vehicles will be rationed. AIL non- commercial vehicles will be granted a basic "AA" gasoline license and ration coupon book, containing 40 coupons for a passengeiË car, or 16 for a motorcycle. O'eners of non- commercial vehicles eligible for a special category, who can prove their need, wil be granted an extra vocational allowance, fixeci in advance for the year ending March 31, 1944. The extra allowance for a special category car wilI be tailored to meet individual needs. In determining this allowance the pre- vious category and niileage of the car wil not be considered. Instead the vocational allowance will be based on two factors: (1) The gravity of the oil shortage wîth which Canada is faced, anid (2) the importance'of the vehicle to its owner in a country ai war. The extra vocational coupons will be issued in books labelled "Special", and each such book will contain flot more than-60 coupons. Only one "Special" book, or portion of such book, will be issued at a time, and hence the case history of each special category applicant will be under constant review., Under provisions of the rationing order, the Ou CÉontfol1er will have the right to re- fuse any application for a special category, or to suspend any rationbookfor an infraction, of the regulations. Every motor vehicle, other than a motor- cycle, murst bear on its windshield a sticker indicating its category. After April 1, service station attendants wiIl not be permitted to serve gasoline to a car which does flot bear the sticker which corresponds to -the ration book submitted at the time of the purçhase. To obtain a gasoline> license -and ration coupon book, secure an application form at your nearest Post Office. Study the formn and follow, the instructions contained therein. When you receive your ration coupon book, guard it carefully. It may not be replaced if, because of your negligence, it is lost or stolen. Do flot leave it in your car; keep ii on your person at ail1 timues. THE D!PARTMENT 0F MUNITIONS AND SUPPLY HONOURABLE C. D. HOWE, Ministr FANK s Anson ,i Gilroy, nd M-rs. W.
