Farmers buying most of their gasoline at filling stations have until April 1 to exchange at local boards their "R" coupons for "E" coupons, which will be accepted accept-ed at filling stations. After March 15, "R" and "E" coupons in all cases must be endorsed whether for gasoline delivered into storage tanks or picked up at filling stations. sta-tions. However, to ease the task of endorsing these coupons, the consumer buying a large quantity of gasoline may endorse a whole strip or block of coupons with a single signature and address written writ-ten across the required number of coupons given as a unit for his single purchase. For one gallon of gasoline he continues to endorse one "E" coupon. |
