RATIONING
TROUBLES
RATIONED
By JACK STINNETT
WASHINGTON — Within a few
weeks, banks all over the States
will start distributing two billion
ation tokens to nearly half a mil
on food stores. Behind that an
nouncement is an enlightening
story of the birth pains so many
government officials have to go
through before these new wartime
ideas become an accomplished
fact.
The token idea was born in the
Office of Price Administration al
most as soon as the ration point
stamp system was under way.
For a time it was kicked around
as inadvisable; but as the stamp
system spread, it became appar
ent some simplification had to be
found.
Tlge sorting and counting of
stamps by denominations have be
come a burden that costs grocers
more than $35,000,000 a year. It
was, discovered that by inaugurat
ing change tokens and only 10
point stamps, the country could
reduce the number of stamps in
circulation by 60 per cent and
save $1,500,000 on every issue of
a ration book.
* * *
But once OPA had decided to
■ssue tokens the real headaches be
gan. WPB informed them that
.here wasn’t any usable metal It
was found it would be almost im
possible to design a token that
wouldn’t be confused with money
or tokens issued in all designs by
private com pan it J in nearly every
. \ uiio-i/V tunicstate,'. .
Alter .weeks ul huddling with
cx.it-r n the material selected was
liner-board, also used in the war
effort out possibly obtainable in
sufficient quantities. At first a
square token with rounded cor
ners seemed best. But it was
found that there are no counting
machines in existence which can
handle them and to hand cpunt
the tokens would be no improve
ment oyer the stamp system. Too. (
they couldn’t be made the size o'
nickels or pennies or even dimes
for fear that they would be used
in vending machines and turn
stiles. The vending machine peo
ple and transit companies were up
in arms against the token idea
from the first.
The first best bet seemed to
make them larger than nickels and
smaller than quarters, but the fi
berboard just couldn’t be allocat
ed. What turned up eventually
was a token slightly smaller than
a dime and only .05 of an inch
in thickness. It will be red and
blue, in colors bright enough to
be spotted if there is any attempt
fo use it in turnstiles or juke boxes
or vending machines.
* !» U
With this final decision, Direc
tor Chester Bowles and his OPA
began to breathe a little easier.
Some fears are still being ex
pressed that tokens will be mis
used but not much. Tokens a^e
too valuable in obtaining food to
be thrown away in penny vending
machines or coin boxes.
There was some fear expressed,
too, that they would be easily
counterfeitable, but WPB has its
finger on most of the nation’s fi
berboard and to obtain it through

that counterfeiting would be un

It is expected that there will t>
