NO RACKET
RATIONING IN NEW ZEALAND
VERY DIFFICULT TO COPY
The belief thai it would be almost impossible to organise a racket in ration books such as happened in Australia Ava.s expressed by the rationing controller, Mr J. E. Thomas, when in Gisborna recently. To begin with, there was no national register in Australia such as the soc ! al security registration provkled. Furthermore, the ration' books in New Zealand had been printed on special paper which woUid be impossible to duplicate because of the exhaustion of the supplies of paper pulp, and the coupons had been overprinted in a manner that would be difficult to copy.
