You may be required to present this book when you apply for subse- quent books. Rationing is a vital part of your country's war effort.

This book is your Government's assurance of your right to buy your fair share of certain goods made scarce by war. Price ceilings have also been established for your protection. Dealers must post these prices conspicuously. Don't pay more. Give your whole support to rationing and thereby,conserve our vital goods.
