AMERICA RATIONS HER PRIME RESOURCES

Ration Books
Many items critical to the war effort were rationed to civilians in strict quantities.

Ration Coupons
Each time a purchase was made one or more coupons had to be surrendered in order to prove the buyer was qualified.

Ration Calendar
published on 26 July 1945 shows that while the war was over, rationing was not.

[The Gallup Independent, Gallup, NM, Thursday, July 26, 1945, Page 2]
