A DOUBLE LOSS
Where it can be clearly proved that petrol coupons for pleasure cars have been lost, the fuel control office has power to issue duplicates if it thinks such action warranted by the circumstances. This power is exercised with great discretion. After much trouble, one Auckland motorist convinced the controller |hat he had lost his coupons, arid he was handed duplicates over the counter. He turned away, and a few moments later returned and announced with agitation that he had lost the duplicates. He had forgotten to take them.; off the counter, and some person bad removed them.
