NEW LIMITS ON
GRADE ONE TIRES
BY OPA OFFICE
Intended To Secure More
Equalized Distribution Os
Available Tires.
RALEIGH, Sept. 30—Eligibility
for new passenger tires (Grade
1) was restricted by the Raleigh
Office of Price Administration
to “C” book drivers iwith a mile
age of 601 or more miles per
month.
This removes from new tire
eligibility all “B” drivers and
some “C” book holders. Pre
viously all car owners whose
mileage totaled 241 or more miles
a month could obtain ration cer
tificates for Grade 1 tires pre
war or new synthetic.
The new restriction is neces
sary, OPA explained, to assure
that the gap between the dwind-.
ling supply of pre-war tires and
adequate supplies of new syn
thetic tires for passenger cars in
quantity.
The necessity for further limit
ing the number of motorists who
can get new tires stresses the
importance of continuing maxi
mum recapping, regular tire in
spections, and of making every
effort to conserve the tires now
on wheels.
OPA said it is acting in ac
cordance with the recent state
ment of the Office of the Rub
ber Director that, only those
drivers whose work is most es
sential to the winning of the war
can count on netw replacement
tires for at least the next twelve
months.”
In the hope of increasing the
number of tires available, the
Office of the Rubber Director
has launched a plan to cull any
serviceable tires from scrap
piles. “Emergency” tires, good
for limited wear, are being tak
en from government warehouses,
junkyards, and auto graveyards,
and are being placed in service
through OPA rationing.
However, acute shortages arc
developing in many parts of
North Carolina, OPA reported,
and threaten, unless chocked, a

this, a greater selectivity in is

necessary. Substantial reductions
in tire ration quotas must also
be made, OPA stated.
This action is effective Octo

USED TRACTOR AND
IMPLEMENT TIRES
NOT RATIONED
RALEIGH, September 3(1—All
used tractor and implement tires
will be removed from rationing
on October 2. Theodore S. John
son, Raleigh district OPA direct
or, announced today.
The action, Johnson said, is be
ing made to encourage the full
use of present supplies of farm
service stores in vital food pro
duction.
Present regulations requiring
a rationing certificate for used
tractor tires have held back the
desired flow of used farm ser
vice tires from dealer’s stocks.
OPA has determined. Farmers
| who obtain certificates for a tire
! have preferred, as a rule, to pur
j chase a new tire rather than a
l use d one. Reports indicate that,
i as a result, the movement of used
i farm tires has been insignificant.
Thus. Johnson said, the remov
lal, of USED tractor and imple
| ment tires from rationing res
! trictions is expected to exped
| ito the moving of these, supplies
lof used tires into service.

Under the auspices of the Quar
termaster General of the U. S.
Army, a meat lecture demon
stration, prepared by the Nation
pi Livestock and Meat. Board,
was delivered by D. R. Miller, a
representative of the Board, be
fore an audience of more than
300 officers and enlisted men at
Camp Butner. Given for the
first time in the Fourth Service j
Command, this lecture demon- j
strated ways and means of con- j
serving meats and was brought
here by Col. John M. Rooks, di- |
rector, food service, Fourth Ser- j
j vice Command, Atlanta. Col.
Rooks told the audience tha the
lecture .was to be presented in |
all service commands. First j

hn, director of the supply arid
service division, Camp Butner. j
The lecture was introduced by !
Major William D. Van Arnam, i
director, foo dservice, Camp But
ner. . j
In his lecture to the audience j
composed of men engaged in sub
i sistenee work on the post, Mr.
Miller pointcW. out that meat
could be conserved without as- .
fecting the ration allowance per j
soldier. Taking spoilage as an im- ]
portant factor in waste, he stat- ;
ect that it could be avoided by j
careful refrigeration and the j
promp use of perishable items. '
; He stressed the importance of
cutting up beef carcasses to
make the most of every cut, dem- ;
onstrating this portion of the j
lecture with actual beef quarters, j
