PETROL ALLOWANCE
JANUARY COUPON. MAY BE USED THIS MONTH. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. The Minister of Supply and Munitions, Mr Sullivan, has announced that octroi coupon No. 22 will be available at half its face value from next Wednesday till the end of January. Coupon No. 21. will continue to [be redeemable at half its face value up to December 31 and coupon No. 22 will be redeemable at half its face value from December 23 till January 31. The Minister said that it had been hoped that it would have been possible to release a full coupon for the January allocation, and to that end the position has been thoroughly examined by the War Cabinet. However, much as it was hoped that an extra amount could have been made available for the holiday period, the war situation and New Zealand’s present and prospective supplies of petrol were such that the War Cabinet had decided it would not be wise to release more than the ordinary amount of petrol for January.
