of safe mileage. Your tires should
be inflated correctly and on regu-
lar schedule which alone should m
crease your mileage over ~ per
cent.
These and many other features
are included in the new U. S. Dea.-
ers Tire Conservation Plan. This
plan was designed by U, S. Tire
Dealers to save rubber for national
defense and save money for motor
lists by making their present tires
last longer"
Help Conserve Rubber
AIr. Walsh pointed out that the
government has asked Americans To
conserve rubber. not because of any
particular shortage today, but IL
order that a reserve of crude rub
Der may be built up. The coopera-
ton of the motorist is all-important
he said, because he is the real user
of rubber.
Every car owner should be proud
to help conserve this important de-
Tense MATERIAL Mr.. Walsh Said.
For our part, VIC are willing to
help in every way that we can, eS-
pecially by giving all information
we have available on making tires
last longer. This is one of the mair
purposes of our tire conservation
plan.
Essential Fer Defense
The importance OF rubber as ar
indispensable material in our ma
tiOnal defense program cannot Le
too strongly emphasized. Most Of
the fortyodd thousand rubber pro-
ducts manufactured in this country
for pcacetime consumption are Vi
tai necessities for the Army. Navy
and Air forces. Thus, for example
the very effectiveness of a modem
army depends to great extent on
the number of faSt-moving rubber
tired trucks, guns, tanks. armored
cars and motorcycles that it can
put into action.
Planes, too, must have depend
able rubber tires as well as scores
of other essential rubber parts in
Guiding the new bullet-sealing gaso
line tanks. Rubber tank tread units
and bullet-Sealing inner tubes arc
other items of special importance
to our national defense program
all of which are being turned out
daily in the various plants of the
United States Rubber Company"

Cars Life Blood
Is Lubrication

Good lubricants constitute the
very lifeblood of a car, according
to statements of automobile manu-
facturers," declared w. V. Osborne,
owner of OSborne's Service Station
in referring to the waterproof

nounCed. Yes, the auto engineers
agree he continued, that a car
must be kept we'll fabricated at al.
times, and that the selection of the
proper kind Of lubricant should De

facturcrs issued published state

now be made"

declares Pat Williams, salesman for

protect the cooling system, and also
clean the crankcase, the oil and

STOVE POLISH STOCKED
| by A. and =. INSULT TO
RACE SAYS NAACP

NEW YORK.-AskiEg for
immediate discrimination Of
sales of a stove polish carried by
A. and p. stores which diplays
the head of a grinning Negro,
and is called "Nigger Head Stove
POLISH" the NAACP made a
formal protest to J. f. Andrews,
regional director of the Atlantic
and Pacific stores. -.
The NAACP got wind of the
insulting can top several weeks
ago when a purchase was made
at an A nd p store at Hill
Linden Boulvard, Jamica, l.. |.
The purchasing agent for the
stores WIS Immediately called and
protest was made, but the agent
denied that the stove polish was
stocked by the stores.
Following further complaints
the NAACP sent representa-
tive to the Jamica store where
another can of the polish was
purchased on August 2.
The NAACP declared that the
legend and illustration on the
can are not only repulsive to all
Negroes, including many Negro
customers of Alp stores, but,
that it seems to be purposely
drawn up to ridicule the Negro
race.
I'VE are confident" the state
ment concludes that the Allan
tic and Pacific stores will not con
tinue to use this method of
holding up the Negro race to
ridicule. and to insult the many
Negro customers of their stores.

In writing to President Roosc-
welt, the NAACP enclosed a
copy Of the letter and stated the
matter was being called to his
attention not only because of
the particular individual invoIv
ed, bat because of similar cases
which have be brought to the \
AACP, and because of the thr":,l
to national unity caused by GER
tain officials of the United
States government.
An adequate investigation was
requested of the complaint to
remedy this ituation and prevent
it's recurrence.

Trends portraying employment,
purchasing power, earnings, depart
ment store sales, cost of production,
etc, are ineScapably upward. Trans
portation facilities are bound to be
taxed. Already the President has
issued an official declaration inau-
gurating priority system. Under
such conditions there is obviously
little room for price weakness, while
there is plenty of room for price
strength.
Keeping in mind the huge Govern
ment expenditures yet to be liqui-
dated, it is indeed likely that sup
ply-to-demand ratios will strengthen
even though production schedules
are steep up to maximum levels. I
