out.) Forgive me. I have to hurry. I've got to go to the other side of town to get some ration books for you. Mrs. Van Daan. Ration books? If they see our names on ration books, they'll know we're here. Mr. Kraler. There isn't anything . . . Miep. Don't worry. Your names won't be on them. (As she hurries out) I'll be up later. Why is it important that the Van Daan and Frank family names do not appear on the ration books?

Ration books were issued during the war to make sure that everyone had access to basic goods, while at the same time preventing stockpiling. Each person had a book, which entitled them to a certain amount of products.

However, Anne Frank and her family are hiding from the Gestapo (the Nazi police) because they are Jewish, and Jewish people were persecuted, sent to concentration camps or executed during the war. If the government were to see their names, they would know their location, and would most likely arrest them.

Because if their names were on the ration books, they'd know that they are Jewish, and Miep would be forced to give their location to the authorities. At the time they would be caught and sent to concentration camps.

<em>In the 1920s many rural Banks failed because farmers couldn’t repay their loans. </em>

Historians establish that almost 600 Banks failed between 1921 to 1929. Most of them were small, rural Banks. But farmers in America had less money every day to pay their debts. There were problems in the farm fields and crops were not producing at their best. Farmers did not have enough money to repay their loans and Banks had no ways to get their money back.
