![["The Office of Price Administration is informing Congressman George B. Schwabe about the need for continued gasoline rationing due to public misunderstanding and tight gasoline supply. The Petroleum Administrator for War allocates gasoline every three months for civilian use, and OPA's responsibility is to distribute it fairly. The statement emphasizes the importance of public understanding and support for the rationing program until gasoline supplies are adequate. The need for rationing is due to increased military demands for petroleum products, particularly fuel oil, for the Pacific theater. The statement also explains the current allocation of gasoline for different users and the challenges in meeting demands. The goal is to relax or eliminate rationing once gasoline supplies are sufficient."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_3_52_0000-Price%20Administration,%201945/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_3_52_0006_thumbnail.jpg "Addressing the Need for Gasoline Rationing: A Statement from the Office of Price Administration")
