The voluntary “self-rationing”
of wheat products and fats and
oils by McCormick County house
wives will help immeasurably in
the gigantic task of reeding starv
ing millions abroad, Mr. Freeland,
County Manager, of the Emer
gency Food Program, said here to
day. .■
Mr. Freeland appealed for the
voluntary reductions of 4J per
cent in heme consumption ol
wheat products, and 20 per cent
in that cf fats and oils.
Quoting ,.a statement recently
made far cpnnection with famine
conditions. abroad, Mr. Freeland
pointed, out that “two thousand
persons died in Athens, GrecCi: :
yesterday; two thousand more will
die today two thousand more to
morrow.” .:
“Yet, today’s 2,000 dead in
Athens constitute only a fraction
of the starving and dying. More
than 500,000,000 persons — nearly
four times as many as the United
States’ entire population—are in
immediate danger of starvation
and death unless we can provide
them with food until their next
harvest season.”
Mr. Freeland cited many ways
in which housewives—and public
eating places as well—can help by
reducing consumption. of wheat
and fats.
Chief among his suggestions are
these:. Use plentiful foods, such
as potatoes, instead of bread, and
serve fewer fried foods. Broil
more foods, making maximum use!
of meat and bacon drippings.
Turn in all used fats to buteners j
and grocers when they can be no
longer used for cooking purposes. •
Serve fewer pastries. Serve less
bread at each meal, and make
sure none is left on plates. Sub- t Chevrolet New Car

A master plan for the distribu
tion of new cars to Chevrolet
dealers throughout the nation
which will enable them to meet
the buying demands of all sections
and all groups including veterans
of the armed forces, doctors,
nurses and others whose transpor-
t will Serve a barbe- ■ toti^n needs are critical, was an
nounced today by T. H. Keating,
general sales manager, Chevrolet
Motor Division of the General
Motors Corporation.
“It is the goal of Chevrolet to
meet the motoring requirements
cf the nation in the most uniform
manner possible, thus assuring an
even flow of cars into all com
munities, large and small, in
proper proportion to the demand
for them,” said Keating. “The
Chevrolet Dealep Distribution 'Plan
is designed to make certain that
the rights and equities of every
Chevrolet dealer—and through the
dealer every Chevrolet buyer—are
protected with equal justice to all
groups and all parts of the coun
try. The objective of the plan is
to meet, insofar as we are able to
do so, the motoring needs of men
and women of metropolitan Am
erica—of agricultural America—
of all America with complete fair-
neas and impartiality and as
swiftly as the many Chevrolet
plants can turn out the cars and
place them in the hands of our
dealers.”
Keep your Old Shoe Under the plan, Keating said
1 J allotments of new cars will be
based upon a mathematical for
mula which accurately weighs the
individual dealer’s sales of 1941
model cars, his operations during
the wartime years and other busi
ness factors. The. program em
braces the entire country and will
remain in effect until October 31,
1947.
Establishment of the carefully
developed plan, keating said, not
only recognizes the Chevrolet
dealers who met their responsibili
ties to the public during the war
by maintaining active service fa
cilities, but provides every Chev
rolet buyer—through the equitable
distribution of cars to every Chev
rolet dealer—the opporunity to be
served in the most satisfactory
manner.
“Our great objective of meeting
the motoring needs of all custo
mers in the fairest manner is, ol
ccurse, in the final analysis The
direct concern of the Chevrolet
dealer,” Keating declared. “We b3-
lirve that every Chevrolet dealer
will deliver cars in accordance
with his best judgment, taking in
to full consideration the needs cf

his community and the impor
tance of meeting the vital re
quirements of veterans, public
health and safety agencies and
others whose transportation needs
are extremely serious.
“Needless to say, Chevrolet deal
ers cannot fill the orders of all
buyers of new Chevrolet cars si
multaneously or overnight, much
as they would like to do so, but
they will meet the unprecedented
demand for new Chevrolets just
as soon as this becomes possible.
“It is our firm belief that
through this carefullly developed
Dealer Distribution Plan more
people can be satisfied—and sat
isfied more quickly—than through
any other method of new car ap
portionment because it will re
sult in the most accurately pro
portionate and speedy distribution
of new cars to Chevrolet dealers
and through them to the public.
“We are confident that Chevro

plete fairness which guides our
distribution of new cars to them
and that they will cooperate fully
in following the same broad equit

may receive under the • Chevrolet
program.
“Meanwhile Chevrolet Motor
Division wishes to express it* at-
itude for the patience whicL * v ^t'r

are displaying during this lrr-pc-
