State OPA headquarters emphasized that the new mileage prograrn; which extends tire eligibility'to all passenger vehicles for essential driving, in no way “lets

•down the bars” in the matter of

rationing tires. The new program, they said, is designed to supply rubW for only the minimum essential miles each passenger vehicle must travel in order to perform only the most vital busi-

ness.

The full potential of the pro-

gram, it was emphasized, cannot • be realized unless each driver cooperates to the fullest extent in selling to the-government all passenger tirarf in excess of five, Strictly^ observing the 35-mile bmr speed limit, and complywith the periodic tire inspec-

requirement.

The mileage rationing program combines gasoline and tire rationing in one plan in accordance with recommendations by the Baruch Committee. While no drastic changes have been made in gasoline rationing, tire rationing has

been broadened to provide eligi -

bility for tires for essential driv- emplover-emplovee transportation ing by all vehicles. Retreading I committee to which all employees

Mosquito Goimnission Reports Oo Work COURT HOUSE — The annual report of the Cape May County Mosquito Extermination Commission was issued this week by O. W. Lafferty, executive secretary, explaining in detail the commission’s operations during 1942. “In looking up state and county records, we find from 1916 to 1942 we have established 9,318,216 feet of drainage ditches plus installation and maintenance of $80,000 worth of tide boxes, gates and dyke control units,’’ Lafferty

reported.

“State records show that one of the counties in the state, over the same period, has a record of 9,257,677 feet of the same type of ditch control. This northern county’s appropriation over the same period has been double that of Cape May County—not bad for

this county, we feel.

“In 1942 we show a 50 per cent increase in ditch maintenance over 1941 and the expulsion of larvicide spray and oil is double that of'*1941,” the report continued. “While this commission feels elated at the work accomplished within our work year, it is not proud of the annoyers which were present. We feel, under ordinary season conditions, the work accomplished would have been out-

standing.”

Lafferty said the first mosquito breeding in 1942 was found on March 24 and the last on October 19, extending by two months the normal mosquito breeding season.

inspector will certify on the application form the present condition of the applicant’s tires and the necessary replacements to keep the vehicle in operation, plus one spare. The applicant will fill out the application and present it together with his gasoline ration book to the rationing board. The board will then process the application. At the same time the board will re-examine the gasoline ra\ion book to determine whether the ration is excessive or insufficient and will adjust the ration accordingly. 6. Upon notification of approval from the board the applicant will call for his tire purchase certificate which he will sign and take to a tire dealer or recapper and secure the tires or recapping services designated by the purchase certificate. 7. All passenger car applicants for tires or gas will be required to sell to the government before December 12 all passenger tires in excess of those mounted on running wheels plus one spare per vehicle. All other persons, except dealers, manufacturers, and government agencies, will also be required to sell their excess passenger type tires to the govern-

ment.

8. No car owner guilty of tire abuse is eligible for tires or retreading. Tire abuse includes failure to comply with the regulation requiring periodic tire inspection, and driving over 35 miles an hour. Commercial vehicles such as trucks, buses, vehicles for hire or rental, must have their tires inspected every two months or every 5,000 miles, whichever comes

first.

Tires for commercial vehicles holding Certificates of War Necessity will be issued by the rationing board strictly on the basis of need, eligibility and quota. The .Certificate by itself does not -require that tire purchase certificates must be granted by a rationing board. Tire eligibility for commercial vehicles will remain limited to most of the classes now eligible under the present tire

tioning regulations.

It was pointed out that one of the chief changes in gasoline rationing made under the new program would be in the method of handling applications for supple-

Local Industry Organizes To Unearth Scrap — Continued From Pag^ One — throughout the country," Mr. Decker explained in his address. "Failure of this salvage campaign to realize its full potentialities,” Decker said, “either through neglect or lack of cooperation from industry, will of necessity lead tc directives and requisition. "The salvage executive appoint-] ed in each plant will render semimonthly reports (WPB-919) which are a must requirement of the WPB. It is a very simple and brief report; it consists of a franked government postal card showing the firm’s name, what critical waste materials sold, and when sold,” Decker said.

fiwkftommt I N the newspapers, on the radio, we learn of huge battles being fought for "lines of communication"--the possession of railroad facilities to carry troops and vital supplies of war to the battle-fronts. P.R.S.L, in the heart of one of Amenta's most important war production areas, is. concentrating its entire efforts upon getting this materiel, of war to the fighting fronts without delay! And, together with delivering the implements of war is the task of transporting the men .of war. That is why there has been—and probably will be—times of civilian travel inconveniences. But good Americans understand that some dislocations in normal travel is to be expected if a policy of "America's-War-Effort-Fir si” is to be maintained with maximum efficiency. We know, however, that this is the wav you want it to be. Inconveniences are of little eOnsequen:® in the greater effort to win this war! If your car is not quite as modern as, others; if your train is short on cars and lacking enough seat»; if you fail to reach your destination on-schedule, we're sure you’ll understand.... There's e Victory Trein Ahead, And Victory Trains Come First!
