THE-' apparent. determination of motorists to burn up thew tires to the last shred, let come what may when the-rubber is gone, is commented upon in an interesting letter which appears on this page today. Few people, evidently, have decided to ration their tire use, in order to make the rubber last as long as reasonably possible, despite repeated warnings from state and federal au thorities. " -'5 ' ; - This lack of concern for the future is further evidenced by the experience of some of the public transportation services operating in this - district One would suppose, with the tire shortage a reality, that there would be a heavy increase in the. use of the public passenger services. However, we are told that one passenger bus schedule, which is conveniently, arranged to bring people into Klam ath Falls in the morning and out in' the evening, is so poorly patronized there is talk of applying for permis- sion to abandon this service. This condition, naturally enough, enters into the aues tion of opening new bus schedules to service surrounding territory. If people will not use the -service yet, it will be difficult to induce the operators 'to . apply-for permis sion to start it,- and difficult for thenrto' get the permis sion it they should apply. i As has been: stated here before, we' believe strongly m the development of more public transportation to serve the big trading area around Klamath Falls. . This will ' require the establishment of additional schedules, for it is unlikely the present schedules could be reversed. There must be a strong public desire : foT.-;this. added service if it. is to be instituted. This trablic desire will develoD. of; course, when tires ar gone, but it would be far better it; there were more use of public transportation facilities now, and tires were conserved for emergency and con venience on a lonir-time basis. ? It has been suggested by competent authorities that rnotonsts taKe tneir tires to an expert and have him esti mate the. amount:-of; mileage left in them. This mileage sfiould then be rationed over a two-vear Deriod. at least.

(To the Editor) I read In your pu per that Kurl Snell thinks Ore gon people, geiuu'iilly me ' re stricting their driving speed lo 40 miles per hour. I wonder whero he drives. Certainly not in southern Kluiu ath county. Tim course or my work re- quires me to make a round trip over Tho Dalles-California high way between Klnmnth l-'alls ami tho stulo line dully. Ever sinee tho president requested It, It being appurent that o serious rubber shortage was sure to como and becauso tho use of a car Is imperative In my Job, I have traveled the highway at a maximum of 40 miles per hour This restriction is reasonable. No individual, no biilnc. in Klamath county would bo nnn Whit thn luni-ln Ir tlx.., ...... ...v ..vou .h mv.'J IIUVUI traveled over 40, But all this year while rtrivlni: at 40, ninety per cent of tho pas senger cars on the road pass mo, one hundred per cent of the de livery trucks of Klamath Kullsi business houses puss me, ninety-1 nine per cent of farm piekmn : and a majority of the heavier! trucks pass mo. j The other day. to make a test from another angle, 1 mudu the ! trip at 53 to see how mnnv cars and trucks I would pass. I puss-! ed just two, passenger curs, one lalrly now car apparently ea-. pablc of any speed but going about 40, tho other a Jalopy which looked as if it couldn't go over 40. ' Nor docs there seem to be any less travel on tho hle.hw.iy,.' than there was a year or two ago; nor is the roadbed any more i free from streaks of burnt rub ber where speeders have hud to am on their brakes to avoid ' catastrophy than It used to be. i It may be good American doc-1 trinu that anyone who buvs a set of tires and pays for them has tho right to wear .them out! as fast as ho wishes, but even . so it scorns lo mo that when any-1 one is so utterly selfish as to do so In the present circum stances ho should bo penalized when ho asks for replacements. Therefore I suggest a plan which should have been in effect months ago, which should go into effect now: Let our state highway nollco be instructed by proper author ity to trail cars on the highway nd when they find one travel ing faster than 40 to tako Its li cense number and turn it in to the tire rationing board. Let the tiro rationing boards be instructed by proper author ity to take these numbers so turned in and place them In a suspense file so that any action on them will be deferred until the requirements of law abiding eaio nave Decn met. I think this will give better results. than having car owners swear they have not traveled over 40. Thut procedure might roHiilt only In im epidemic of badly strained voracities. 1. QUK8.
