ODT officials said that as long as the fuel and Although there were some reports of efforts to stock up on canned foods, Asheville grocery stores said yesterday that apparently the public took in stride the announcement that 200 food items are soon to be rationed. A check of practically all types of food stores here showed that most of them have been rationing canned items to their customers for some time selling usually not more than two cans of an item at a time and others started the practice during the day. Reaction to the announcement apparently was different in some sections of the city. One large super store reported many persons wanting to buy canned foods by dozen or case lots and they were refused. Yet a store serving a similar class of trade in another section of the city said only one or two persons attempted to buy In larger quantities than normal.
Stores serving a small-salaried class of trade reported praclically no effort on the part of their customers to buy any more than normal requirements, and the opinion was expressed that not many small-s-alnrlcd workers were In a position to buy up quantities of foods. Some of the stores reported that they have been. Umtttag purchases by their regtilar customer tor some time, Jetting them have quantities according to the size of the family.
