Inspection Part of Program The tire inspection program is one aspect of mileage rationing about which everyone isn’t especial ly familiar. Twenty-five cents is the highest charge that may be made for inspection if no tires are removed from the wheel or rim. If a tire is demounted for inspec tion, additional charges may be made depending n the size of the tire. These fees inc'ude 50 cents for a passenger vehicle tire, 75 cents for a Ema1! ruck tire, and a dollar for large truck tires in addi tion to the 25-cent charge. Authorized OPA inspectors in this territory are: O. K. Tire shop, Ver non Sykes at the Vernonia Auto company, George Johnson at the Vernonia Service station, Bill Heath Guy Bellingham at Birkenfeld, and Doy Hughes at Mist. The tires on every passenger car must be in spected by one of the above between December 1, 1942, and January 31, 1943. Beginning February 1, "A” or “D” mileage book holders must have tire inspections every four months wi.h inspections at least 60 days apart. “B”, “C” or supplemen tal “D” mileage book holders must do so every two months, with in spections at least 30 days apart. Commercial vehicles should have had Certificates of War Necessity beginning November 15, but no re ports of their arrival here have been made. Effective that date, inspec tions must be made every 60 days or every 5000 miles, whichever oc curs sooner. No tires, tubes, or re capping services may be allowed these vehicles unless the vehicle has a certificate and has been inspected. At the time of inspection, inspect ors must be shown mileage ration books and tire inspection record, if a passenger vehicle, or Certificate of War Necessity if a commercial vehicle. the unfavorable weather.
