TRAFFIC FATALITIES DROP
Even war has some recompense.
Over the New Year’s holiday only 115 violent
deaths were reported. These were caused by
automobile accidents, fire, drownings, shootings
and miscellaneous accidents.
Because of war conditions, gasoline and tire
rationing, traffic accident deaths are running
about 50 per cent below normal.
VICTORY TAX WILL PINCH
Aside from purchase of war bonds and sta
mps, the American people are really going to
feel the pinch of war when they start paying the
victory tax this month.
The tax became effective January 1, but not
many employers will deduct it until Saturday
and those paying by the month will not deduct
it until the end of January.
Of course, certain exemptions and credits
will be allowed, making the plan complicated
like anything else that congressvhas anything
to do with. Anyway, as a result of the credits
and exemptions the tax will not amount to the
full 5 per cent.

RESPONSIBILITY OF
INSPECTORS
A. The inspector is to give the vehicle owner efficient and courteous
inspection service and assist him in every way possible to keep his tires
and tubes in serviceable condition. The inspector is to be regarded by
the vehicle owner as a friendly and helpful tire maintenance expert. It
is the duty of every inspector to foster such an attitude on the part of the
vehicle owner. Vehicles must be maintained in service with the greatest
possible conservation of rubber.
B. Any violation of the tire rationing regulations by a tire inspector or
a tire inspection station will be dealt with promptly. Careless or dishonest
inspection or collusion between an inspector and a motor vehicle owner-
%
ter two warnings will be cause for withdrawal of the station's official
inspection authority.
To assist the inspectors car owners must have the tires of their ears
mounted so the serial numbers are visible from the outside and should
make comments on any breaks or other bad places in their tires.
