RATIONING OF AUTO TIRES ' JCfZfM9 tZHt'JTS . 4, Rationing of new tires and tubes was in full effect in the United States on January 5. Until that time it was not possible to purchase a new tire or tube from any dealer no matter what the emergency was. Used and retreaded tires may - be purchased at the present time and also on and after rationing. Rationing of new tires and tubes will be administered by a board or boards to be set up by County Defense Councils in Utah. No doubt every reader of this newspaper is interested in the restriction that have already been set up by the authorities at Washington. Following are questions and answers which may serve to clarify details of the program: Q. What kind of tires will be rationed? Only new automobile, tiuck a. id motorcycle tires, tubes and casings. No restrictions are plac. on purchases of used tires, tetreudo or recapped tires, or on -- RAN DO DE LUXE PRINTS And Matching Solids! 23c yd. Brand new spring collection.

A. They are in the same class with the average motorist. Q. How are truck owners affected? A. The only" trucks for which new tires may be obtained are those used exclusively for transportation of ice or fuel, materials for construction or maintenance of public highways, public utilities or production facilities; transportation essential to roofing, plumbing, heating and DESIGN INDIAN BLANKETS Women's Women's Flannelette ea. 59c Nightgowns Chenille Bedspreads 1.69 ea.

What is the important exception? A. No new tires may be purchased for a truck which is used to transport commodities to an ultimate consumer for personal, family or household use. Q. Does that mean delivery trucks operated by a retail grocer, a department store, or other business? A. Yes. Q. What about milk or bakery trucks- - A. Technically they fall under the ban; in piactice, it is believed possible that some future provision may be made for their benefit. But it may involve enforced pooling of their delivery facilities to reduce the number of trucks operated by each company. Most firms operating large fleets of trucks or taxis, however, have fairly large stock of new or retreaded tires on hand and may not suffer immediate effects from the rationing plan. Q. What about buses? A. Buses with a capacity of ten or more passengers, used exclusively for public transportation, are on the eligible list. This includes school buses and company buses used to carry workers to and from their jobs. Company buses are barred, however, if public transportation facilities are readily available. Q. Will f armor Sjhave to go back to the old methl wheel tractors and implements? A No, the regulations approve purchase of new tires for farm equipment, other than automobiles or trucks, if tires are essential to the operation of the equipment. Q. Where do motorcycles and bicycles come in? A. Motorcycle tires are subject to rationing: bicycle tires are not and their sale is unrestricted at the present time. However, no more bicycle tires are being manufactured except to fill defense orders. Q. Who will do the actual rationing? A. Local rationing boards made up of local defense councils are being established They will have final jurisdiction within their communities and will issue certificates on application permitting eligible persons to purchase ' tires. Q. How many tires may each applicant purchase? A. That will depend on several factors, including the condition of the tires he wishes to replace and the quota for his state or county. The regulations provide that every new tire bought must be mounted on the vehicle which eliminates a spare. Q. Who determines the state and county quotas?' A. Each month the office of Price Administration will assign the number of tires which may be sold nationally and in each state or county. Q. Are there enough retreads and used tires available) to take care of the need of those ineligible to buy new tires? A. Probably not. Officials say a very rough estimate of tve number of used tires now in dealers stock is the supply of retreads held by dealers is estimated at about 200,000. Q. How long would that supply last? A. Hard to say. Only comparable figures was a recent estimate by Price Administrator Leon Henderson that 8,000,000 new tires are now in stocks and that, under unrationed, normal demand, these would last about two months.
