8 Heppner Gazette Times, April 20, 1944 TIRE INSPECTION RECORDS MUST BE SAVED Effective April 20, 1944, periodic tire inspeation of passenger tires will no longer be required. Tire in spection records, however, must be retained for presentation (1) with any application for a replacement tire, and (2) with an application for mileage rations. This discon tinuance of peroidic inspection will not change the requirement that applicants for replacement tires must have their applications certi fied in the usual manner by an of ficial OPA tire inspector. This does not apply to truck tires. It is still necessary for them to have periodic inspections. The ab olishment of periodic tire inspec tions does not in any way relieve the motorist from having his tires recapped. LUMBER SITUATION CRITICAL The war production board has asked AAA committees to distribu c the April-May-June quarter lum ber allocation of 250 million board feet for farm use with extra ca"e because the lumber supply situati.o has taken a turn for the worse. . Military need will take 70 percent of this year's lumber output, ac cording to WPB. Shipping lumber alone, used chiefly for crating ard packaging munitions and suppli", will require nearly half of the lum ber produced. The remainder mu.it be .divided among railroads, utili ties, mining and heavy industries, war housing, farms, and other es sential construction. More stringent regulations governing the distribu tion of lumber are expected to be issued within the near future, are urged to request lumber rat ings for most critical needs.
