THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, TUESDAY MORNING. JULY
MOTOR CAR INDUSTRY. IN PHOENIX GOES 0N
 WAR BASIS JULY 4.

The motor car user has been lined up for his part in the war.
 Called upon by the government to lend his aid in conserving man power and preventing waste, there have been outlined rules and regulations for the guidance of every person connected with the motor car industry or who drives a car. No person who owns or drives a motor car or who is ill any manner connected with the motor car industry is unaffected by these rules; in fact, they are so far-reaching that the number whose daily conduct they affect runs into the millions.
 From the manufacturer whose plant turns out hundreds of motor cars daily, to the man who drives "fliv- ver," these regulations are directed to be observed as patriotic duty. for the releasing of men for war work and the cutting down of useless expense.
 No longer will the motor car owner burn gasoline as he pleases' in joy riding or other useless pleasures, wearing out tires unconcernedly and keeping the repair shop men busy re- building and repairing what careless and thoughtless misuse have caused.
 The governments call for men and material is too strong and imperative longer to be ignored by the great army of motor car users, and the ban at last has been placed on the indiscriminate use of the automobile. The rules and regulations that have been promul- gated for the observance of all motor car users and everyone connected with
 the motor car industry come with tho request of the war service committed
 of the war economy board of the coun- cil of national defense and are to b, made effective on July 21.
 F'ifty-four automobile dealers, gar : age men, accessory dealers and gaso line stations of Phoenix have sub scribed to these regulations and de clare that they will abide by them. July 21 is the date on which tn motor car industry in Phoenix is to g
 on a war footing in common witt
 every other industry. It is win-the
 war provision requested by the gov
 ernment to aid in supporting the na
 tion in her titanic struggle.
 The observance of these regulations
 it is stated, will work a hardship on n , one. It is patriotic self-denial tha ] will save to the government things o ! which it is in vital need
 ) This war service policy has bee
 adopted as a measure of national de
 fense and it is imperative that it b
 followed by every motor car owner an Il by every person connected with tn e motor car industry. Among the vitall e important things to be accomplishe 0 by these new rules and regulations ar if the following:
 e No Unnecessary Service.-Ever f time the service of a motor car me d chanic is used unnecessarily it rob s the government of just that amount ( Il man power. The people are urged |
