Simultaneously. OPA prepared the way for the unrationrd sale of the few passenger tires made from released rubber that are still unsold Comparatively few truck tires and only about 5.000 passenger car tires will be affected by the action.

OPA said. During the past two years the supply of used truck tirej, has been irregular and the quality generally poor because under rationing all drivers are required to get the maximum mileage out of their tires before replacing them. Beginning August 17. will be reclassifled as Grade HI tires for unrationed sale After August 17. 1945.

a dealer who has such tires in stock--they i are easily identified because they are branded "P-P' or "War Tire' may request W. C. Young. OPA district director, to reclasslfy them as Grade III tires and sell them without rationing restrictions In all cases, however, they must be examined and approved by an OPA tire examiner as Grade III tires before they are reclassified by the district director I SET AREA QUOTA FOE WAK Fifteen scuthcentral Pennsylvania counties, including Adams, have agreed to raise U.079.257 as the area's sharp of the states 19.794937 quota of (tie 1945 National war fund Vance McCormlck and Col Samuel Fleming Jr. HarrlsbuiK.
