May Head
Tire Rdtioning
Board Here
Young Says One
Agency Sufficient
For Entire City

Whitney Leary, chairman Of the
Commissioners Trafhc Advisory
Council, probably will be named
chairman of the District Tire Ra-
tioning Board, it was indicated to-
day by the Commissioners as they
planned prompt cooperation with
Federal authorities for the Issuance
of certificates needed for new tire
and tube sales after January 5.
The name of Mr.. Leary was pre-
sented to the city heads late yester-
day. No immediate action was
taken, although indications were
given an appointment was to be ex-
pected within day or two.
Believes One Board Enough.
Commissioner Young said he be-
lieved one board would be sufficient
for Washington and that number
of boards to handle applications for
tire and tube purchases for various
sections of the city would not be
needed.
Tentatively. it has been deter
mined to create a separate ration

the Board of Commissioners. instead
of making it a direct. subordinate
unit of the District Defense Council.
officials said the defense council
and defense officials already have a
huge volume of work to handle,
without adding anything.
Just how many members would
make up the board was not deter
mined. although three-man
agency was mentioned.
Retreading Unaffected.
Hereafter there will be very few"
new tires and tubes sold for private
passenger cars. and private owners
to get them will have to obtain cer-
tifcates from the new District Ra-
tioning Board. Its job is expected
to be very largely that of issuing
permits for necessary operation Of
commercial vehicles.
Federal officials have explained
the new program being developed
under the Office of Price Admins
tration does not affect used, retread-
ed or recapped tires, used tubes or
recapping or retreading services.
Sales at wholesale of new tires
and tubes are not to be allowed until
a later date, when procedure for re-
plenishing retail stocks will be de-
veloped.

Here's a Change From the Old
Stand-Bys: Tasty Cereal Cookies

IND you ever hear of
II "cerealia?" No, it's not
breakfast food. It's the festival
that the ancient Romans staged
every year in honor of Ceres, God
dess of the Grains. You can have
a cerealia of your own; Cookie
Cerealia, for when it comes to
turning out those patches of cook
les, there's nothing that adds so
much taste and variety at such
low cost as the well-known morn
ing cereal.
Nice part about making cereal
cookies is that the cereal is al
ready cooked and tested In the
manufacturers ovens. All you
need do is mix it IN according to
directions. But nicer still are the
gorgeous-tasting delicacies that
you can produce from just ordi-
nary, everyday corn fakes and
the like. Sort of a change from
the old stand-bys, the sand-tarts
and ginger snaps.
Even the names of these cookies
sound good: Bran Butterscotch
Cookies, New Zealand Corn Flake
Kisses, Mincemeat Hermits, Pep
pies, and Peanut Butter Maca-
rooms. Happily, none of these call
for expensive ingredients.
