- COMMENTS - SHARE THE RIDE No one really knows how far-reaching will be the effect of stringent nation-wide gasoline rationing. Its resulting problems will be particularly acute amidst the vast distances of the Wester United States.. Thousands of war workers and farmers live many miles from production centers. Plans are under consideration for sharing of rides. Compulsion should be avoided wherever possible. American citizens, by nature and traditions, simply don't like it. Industry in every field of endeavor is striving to aid the over-all war effort. It knows that a problem that is not solved sol-ved voluntarily, must be solved by government authority, If the oil industry can help solve auto transportation problem prob-lem on a voluntary basis, all of us will owe it a dept of grati- tude because it will have helped avert official restrictions of individual action and movement, which are dear to the American citizen. We should cooperate to the limit.
