ON SALE OF TIRES Come one, come all. Defense Meeting Here Monday The Bob Cooke Motor company, local Goodyear tire dealers calls at tention to the following order from the O ffice o f Production manage ment, relative to the sale of tires. "General restrictions on sales and shipment: Except to fill purchase or ders assigned an A-3 car or better preference rating from the date o f is suance o f this Older until Sunday, January 4, 1942 no new automo bile, truck, bus uv motorcycle, farm implement or other type o f casing or tube shall be sold, delivered or trans. feiTed provided that the foregoing prohibition shall not apply to tires which are sold as part o f new or used vehicles at time o f their sale." The OPM further states in a wire to the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company: “ In the interest o f the least possible dislocation o f business we suggest that you appeal to dealers and to the public to give their full cooperation to make possible future sales o f tires. There aie no restric tions on the retreading of tires, or sale of retreaded tires or used tires. At this time it is important that ade quate facilities for taking care of tire needs o f consumers be provided for by tire dealeis, since the sale of tires after January 4th will be limited as compared to previous years. Anything that you and your associates can do to promote the con servation o f rubber thru the proper care and use o f tires will be of tre- menduous importance.. For the fact is that we must regard you and your dealers as the guardians o f America’s stockpile of rubber.” The Boh Cooke Motor company to gether with all other Goodpear tire dealers is whole-heartedly coopérât, ing with the government in this move to conserve lubbqr.
