The only exception was for retailers who did less than $200 business in March, 1943.

These were required to register but were not required to file inventories. Under the meat-fats program, the retailers were required to register between May 3 and 14, their inventories being based on stocks on hand at the close of business May 1. As most retailers handle some items in both programs, all were required to register for both, according to OPA officials. Besides facing suspension proceedings, the delinquent retailers under the general rationing regulation could be enjoined or prosecuted criminally as violators of OPA regulations. The criminal proceedings involve showing intent to violate the regulations, admittedly hard to prove, and OPA has resorted to suspension orders to enforce its programs.

"Although the Red Cross must meet this additional demand and upon the assistance of the depend American public in accomplishing the task, Rochester's quota will not be raised," said Pierce. "Two new centers will open soon in Texas and with one or two new centers on the West Coast, the increase will not have to be absorbed by established collection areas and laboratories," Pierce said. Vitally Important "But it is vitally important that donations from the Rochester area show the increase that is necessary to meet the quota that will be more essential then ever under the new call for blood," he concluded.

To insure this area's quota be met without interruption or letdown for any reason, the procurement division will concentrate on arranging more mass donations at the center at 37 Exchange St. and the recently-organized sponsoring committee will spur its campaign of direct solicitation for to be fulfilled at the center. pledges The Red Cross now has 33 blood centers and 62 mobile units in operation.
