JAM MAKING

EXTRA RATION OF SUGAR TO BE MADE AVAILABLE. A MAXIMUM OF THREE POUNDS. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Provision is to be made for a limited supply of sugar to be available to those housewives who wish to make jam and marmalade at this season. The Rationing Controller, Mr J. E. Thomas, said last night that the August quota of sugar which would normally be available on August 1 against coupons numbers 15 to 18 could be purchased in whole or in part on surrender of these coupons at any time after July 15 by those people wishing to make jam or marmalade. On using the sugar purchased on these coupons for this purpose, said Mr Thomas, application could be made to any rationing office for a permit to replace the quantity so used. This permit would be negotiable on and after August 1, but not later than August 31, at the shop where the consumer ’was registered. In this way it would be possible for a maximum of 31b. of sugar per person to be used during the next few weeks for making marmalade for household needs.

This allowance of sugar would be 'subtracted in each case from any general issue of sugar which might be made in the main jam-making season. Retailers were therefore requested to keep a record of the quantities of sugar supplied to their customers on permits secured under this arrangement.

Applications for replacement permits are to be made before the end of August, and in each instance the ration book of the housewife is to be handed to the rationing officer for noting.
