To Register For Food Rationing During February fieglftration for Ration Book No. Two—covering canned and frozen fruit* and vegetable* and other item*—probably will start during the last week of February, the Office of War Information announced late last week. There will follow a period of a week to 10 days, during which sales of rationed goods will be halted, to give grocers an opportunity to stock up on items, which are now virtually depleted. And the program, a point system, probably will become effective the third week of March, the

OW1 said.

Credentials for book No. Two will be Book No. One, which covers sugar and coffee, and will be presented at thp time of registration, which will be held in public school*. Aqy, one member may register for his family by showing his own No. One book and those of all the members of his household. Persons who never obtained Ration Book No. One will'have to take up the problem of getting a No. Two book with. their local ration boards. Xt the time of registration, a coupon in the middle of Ration Book One will be marked with a blue cross to indicate that No. Two has - been issued and as a protection against fraudulent attempt* to obtain two or more No. Two book*. It is expected, said OWI, that the rations for the first period under Book No. Two will -be very small. The period will be one of experiment to determine the section* of large and small demand. Adjustments on the basis of that information will be made upwards lor the second ration period, OW\said. Delay in getting the new ration system under way

Public Service Sets Bus Route Penuit Public Service Interstate Transportation Co. was granted an emergency permit by the Public Utility Commission late last week to operate two pew bus services in Cape May County. One franchise is for service between the Cepe May-Wildwood area and Atlantic City, serving other communities en route. The other permit was to < ate from Philadelphia and V wood to the Coast Guard station in Cape May. AgiUtion for Atlantic CikyCape May service was ' ^started several months ago by Atli City merchants, who compla of present difficulties for commuters and shoppers. Later ficers of the Navy, Army Coast Guard approved the idea because of the considerable travel of service personnel along the South Jersey beach area. At last week's hearing, Public Utility Commission received an application from the Brigantine Coach Company to operate the Cape May County branch line, but it was not granted because of objections by Public

Service.

Public Service, which operated summer' bus service in the county for a number of years, but abandoned it in the winter, formed the commission that now desires to operate the year

around.

The Brigantine company, an independent concern, said it had three idle buses available Cape May County. Frequency of- the new service 1 has not yet been announced.
