the 1943 WWII war-time rationing OPA Regulations Statement! OPA was the
Office Of Price Administration that issued ration stamps and set
maximum pricing allowed for restaurants so that over-inflated high
prices would not occur during the war. Meat & other items were in
very short supply, so restaurants came up with clever marketing ideas
such as certain meatless days.
