Historically referred to as the "Gardiner Claim" it involved two Gardiner brothers who concocted a false claim that Mexico had destroyed their profitable silver mines in Mexico which they never owned during the war in order to secure a payout. Mexico fell for the scheme and awarded the Gardners a lot of money. The mines were discovered to be a myth and so the investigations began in 1851 ultimately ending in convictions in 1854. An interesting and scarce artifact of American history!</p> Beverly Tucker, Printer to the Senate hardcover

Good. 52 4 pages This Report expresses the approval of the Senate of the Department of Energy Standby Gasoline Rationing Plan No. 1. It addresses the Purpose of the Measure; Background and Need Legislative History and Committee Recommendation Cost and Budgetary Considerations Regulatory Impact Evaluation and Executive Communications. Rationing Plan No. 80-1 issued by the Office of Regulations and Emergency Planning Economic Regulatory Administration U.S. Department of Energy. The objectives of the rationing plan are to provide a mechanism capable of maintaining an orderly and equitable market for gasoline in a severe supply shortfall and capable of rapid implementation; and to comply with requirements of EPCA which mandates the development of a contingency rationing plan. Eligibility for ration allotments will be based principally on motor vehicle registration records maintained in a national vehicle registration file. Supplemental allotments will be granted for certain priority activities to ensure the maintenance of essential public services. Supplemental allotments will also be granted to businesses and government organizations with significant off-highway gasoline requirements. Local rationing boards or other offices will be established by states to provide special allotments to hardship applicants within DOE guidelines. The background and history of the plan are described. The Economic Regulatory Administration issues rules with respect to standby gasoline rationing. The plan is designed for and would be used only in the event of a severe gasoline shortage. The plan provides that eligibility for ration allotments will be primarily on the basis of motor vehicle registrations. DOE will mail government ration checks to the parties named in a national vehicle registration file to be maintained by DOE. Ration recipients may cash these checks for ration coupons at various designated coupon issuance points. Retail outlets and other suppliers will be required to redeem the ration coupons received in exchange for gasoline sold. Supplemental gas will be given to high-priority activities. A ration banking system will be established with two separate and distinct of ration accounts: retail outlets and other suppliers will open redemption accounts for the deposit of redeemed ration rights; and individuals or firms may open ration rights accounts which will operate in much the same manner as monetary checking accounts. A white market will be permitted for the sale of transfer of ration rights. A percentage of the total ration rights to be issued will be reserved for distribution to the states as a State Ration Reserve to be used by the states primarily for the relief of hardship. A National Ration Reserve will also be established. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback
