Dreamed of Tiger Hunts—
Bagged a Man-Killer
OWNERS MUST NOTE
NEW LICENSE NUMBERS
Car owners themselves rather
than ration boards or automobile
registration officials must note
new license numbers on their
ration bo?ks and tire inspection
records, yn^r a j-ecent OPA rul
ing. The action also provides
that T coupons issued for ust.
in 1944 by commercial vehicles
and taxis will be in strips (sim
ilar to strips of motion picture
tickets) rather than in book
form and each coupon will be
serially numbered.
KEEP DRAFT
BOARD INFORMED
A farm worker who fails to
keep his local selective service
bo rd informed of a change of
address or occupation may be
reclassified or possibly inducted
in*o the armed forces. Only the
selective service board with
whom the individual has regis
tered has authority to grant him
a temporary release from non
farm work which will protect his
deferred classification.

COAL PRODUCTION,
PRICES RISE
The highest weekly production
record in more than 16 years
was established by the U. S.
bituminous coal mines during the
first full week of operation und
er the new wage contract be
tween the government and the
miners, according to Harold L.
Ickes, solid fuels administrator
for war. Production for the week
ended November 20 was estimat
ed at 12,700,000 tons. Bitumin
ous coal price ceilings were rais
ed an average of 17 cents a net
ton to compensate operators to
the extent required by recent
increases in labor costs. An in
crease of 80 cents per net ton
was made in ceiling prices for
by-product foundry and by-pro-
duce blast furnace coke manufac
tured in the central west. A
similar increase is expected to be
announced shortly in maximum
prices for industrial and domestic
by-product coke produced in the
central west.

Home canners are urged to
save ail glass jars and tops suit
able for re-use. They will be
needed to round out new sup
plies next summer, the depart
ment of agriculture says. Many
commercial jars—those contain
ing coffee, pickles, peanut butter,
and mayonnaise—are not stand
ardized as to size and type of
oepning, so that a jar and its
metal screw top may be used
for home canning by buying only

The December rationing quota
of 15,500 new passenger automo
biles is 25 per cent less than the
November quota and the lowest
in almost two years of rationing,
according to OPA. Continued
quota reductions reflect OPA’s
policy of spreading out as long
as possible the remaining supply
of new cars for essential pur
poses. No new cars have been
produced since early in 1942.
Under a new OPA ruling dealers
in selling used 1942 automobiles
may charge an increase of 1
per cent a month or $15—which
ever is lower—only for the per
iod the automobile actually was
kept in storage and maintained
under specified conditions. A us
er may sell his 1942 used car
for no more than he paid when
he bought it.
