(JP) The American Gas Association warned today that certain critical areas throughout the country might suffer cooking and heating gas shortages next winter unless all consumers practiced strict con servation.

The shortage was expected to hit household users of natural gas and gas made from oil and coal because of th great need of the armed forces and war industry for all types fuel, AGA said. To inform householders how to save gas, many of the organiza tion's 500 member companies soon will launch local advertising cam paigns. AUA represents 80 per cent, of the gas industry. Consumers will be told: 1. Insulate to seal heat leaks.

Homes can be insulated now with the cost paid in 12 equal instal ments starting November 1, under Federal Housing Administration terms. Weather stripping and storm sash are easy to install by the homeowner himself, who also may be able to do some insulating, 2. Install storm windows to cut heat losses and help keep rooms at even temperature. 3. Have heating system inspected to get maximum efficiency.

4. Cook "one dish" meals on top burners and whole meals in oven. Don't use running hot water for washing dishes or hands. Repair leaky faucets and heat no more water than necessary. Never leave door of refrigerator open, and cool cooked foods before placing there.

5. Avoid allowing tea kettles or open pots containing water to steam for long periods on top burners. Don't fill bathtubs to capacity with hot water. Don't use oven to heat kitchen. If next winter is severe natural gas shortages may occur in Ohio, western Pennsylvania, western New York, southern California, central areas of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana to northern Michigan, the eastern half of Kansas and the Missouri Valley from Kansas City to Minneapolis.
