In order to further conserve
tires and TRY to keep all our We
hicles running the OPA has de-
cided on system of tire regis
tration and tire inspections be-
ginning November %.
Before this date each owner of
passenger car, fors which a "a
ton book has been issued, will
mail in to the Local Rationing
Board an inventory of tires and
tubes in which he will certify
that he has no more than five
tires and five tubes for each We
hicle. This will allow him four
mounted tires on the car and
one spare.
The car owner will then re-
ceive a Tire Registration and In
spection Form. Between Dec. l.
1912, and Feb. /, 1943. every pas
senger car owner must have his
tires inspected by an authorized
oPA inspector. Beginning Feb.
l, 1913, every passenger car own
er will be required to have his
tires and car inspected periodic
ally by a registered OPA inspec-
tor as follows: go,
All holders of basic A and d
books, every four months with
inspections at least so davs
apart
Every holder of a B, c or
Supplemental d book. every
two months. with inspections
at least 80 days apart.

ing more than five tires and tubes
VIII be required to dispose of his
excess This will be done bv
turning them over to the Amer
lcan Railway Express Company
which will call for and receive
all such tires and tubes. The Ex-
press Company viii give the own
er a receipt and forward them
to q government depot where
they will be appraised, and from
which the owner will receive the
ceiling price, less charge for any
repairs required. These tires
will then be available for re-is-
sue and viii doubtless work to
materially increase the quota of
tires available for civilian use.
The official inspectors for this
tire service are in general the
filling stations operators and
tire dealers. In Monroe county
they viii, in general, be the same
as those now designated to in
spect tires and tubes for the
purpose of obtaining replace
ments. A complete list Of the
inspectors viii be kept posted at
the office of the Local Board.
The fees for this service viii
be very nominal For not to ex-

Naval Battle Al SO|OIllOns
Information Receives Con-
cerned Successes With
u. S. MARINES On Guadal-
canal
(By Associated Press)

(By Associated Press)
SYDNEY. Nov. l6.-No official
report was issued today about the
naval battle that seems to be i'm
minent north of the Solomons.
The news from those islands
chiefly concerned the successes
with which the United States ma
rines on Guadalcanal have met
during the last three days. The
marines. in clashes with the Japs
in the sector west of the American
held Henderson airfield. have
won every encounter.
Reports are current about many
enemy troopships, conveyed by
warships, that are attempting to
reach Guadalcanal, but nothing
was said about how far they are
away from their objective.
On New Guinea the Japs' posi-
ton today is reported to be more
precarious. The Australians con-
tinue to throw the Japs back to-
ward their base at Buna, while
the American forces draw closer
to the same objective fom the
southeast.

STAGGERED HOURS
ARE PLANNED FOR
CITY HIGH SCHOOLS

At the request of defense officials,
members of the Hamilton Board of
Education this week passed a resolu-
tion establishing staggered hours for
the opening and closing of Hamilton
High School and two junior high
schools.
Action was taken when Alexander
Thomson, Jr., defense commander, in
formed the board that staggered hours
were necessary so that the Hamilton
City Lines could take care of it's peak
transportation periods with available
bus facilities. Such a plan, Thomson
said would facilitate transportation
of war workers.
The board fixed opening and closing
hours as follows: Hamilton High
School, $3.50 o'clock and 8; Roosevelt
Junior High, 9 o'clock and $3.50; Will
son Junior High, $50 o'clock and A.
Thomson informed the board that
the Civilian Defense Council had rec
commended new hours of $3.50 to fol
downtown stores. The recommenda.
ton is being studied by the Hamilton
Merchants Association.
