Shortage of Mechanics and
and Parts Complicates
Repair Situation
Inaugurating their annual
Summer-proof campaign, Mobil
gas and Mobiloil dealers of this
city today Joined industry in
urging local motorists to avoid
having their cars laid up tem
porarily or permanently because
of some mechanical defect or
breakdown.
"This Is the fourth war sum
mar," stated Claude C. Holmes,
Mobilgas distributor here. "Few
of the new cars have, come into
the market in that time, and the
majority of our cars today are
nearly 10 years old. Many have
left the highways already, and
it Is more important than ever
to keep those that are left on the
job so that workers may use
them to keep on the Job. Trans
portation is vital to our war ef
fort. "Several factors Indicate the

cars, and with all car older,
mechanical- care has been in
creased many times. That is '
why it sometimes takes a week
to a month to get a car repaired,
even where no new parts are
involved.
"You may feel there Is little !
danger of your car going off the
road before the war's end. But
there is great danger that you
may have a mechanical break
down, and your car may be laid
up anywhere from a week to
several months before It can be
put back on the road again.
"In many cases this can be
avoided by proper care of your j
automobile; and Summer-proofing
is designed to do just this.
Realizing that it will be difficult
or in some cases impossible for
workers to keep on the job un
less they keep their cars on the
job, too, Mobilgas dealers have
organized to give prompt and
effective service to prevent the
breakdowns and delays which
may follow if automobiles are
not given proper periodic care."
