GASOLINE REMINDER All gasoline users were remind- ed this week by Hamer S. Culp, chairman of the Salt Lake City war price and rationing board that all coupons in their present gasoline ration books must be endorsed immediately in compliance compli-ance with the new amendment to the rationing regulations. The endorsement entails writing writ-ing the license plate number and the state of registration in ink on each coupon. Coupons in new books issued ; after July 22 should be endorsed as soon as they are received from the war price and rationing board, the chairman said. In addition, users should write endorsements immediately on any coupons now in their possession or received before July 22. In the past it has not been necessary nec-essary to write notations on coupons cou-pons until they were actually used to buy gas. Immediate endorsements are required re-quired under a new OPA amendment amend-ment both as a convenience to the public and as a help to OPA investigators in-vestigators in checking misuse of ration coupons falling into the hands of persons not entitled to them, the board chairman pointed out. Under the new plan the motorists motor-ists by spending a few minutes endorsing his coupons all at once will save delay and trouble when he goes to a filling station to buy gasoline' the chairman stated, "by cooperating in making those endorsements promptly, the rightful right-ful holders of a gasoline ration will be rendering invaluable assistance as-sistance to OPA in its job of detecting de-tecting and preventing a black; : market in gasoline and gasoline coupons.
