A number of Newark bust

possible the publication of a
complete street and avenue di-
rectOry which will be found in
this issue of The Leader.
The list of streets and ave-

is suggested that readers cut

Tire Rationing
Inspectors And
Boards Appointed

Tire rationing for residents of
Newark and Licking county
started this week, following ap-
pointment of inspectors and
boards in the various villages. A
county board was also named in
cluding T. G. Jury, Newark;
Howard Parker, Alexandria, and
Russell w. Fairall, Hanover.
General classifications of those
who may secure tires under the
quota limits are:
Vehicles operated by physi-
clans, surgeons, visiting nurses
or veterinaries, used principally
for professional services; ambul-
ances; vehicles used for public
health, safety and mail service.
Vehicles with capacity of 10 or
more persons, operated exclu-
sively for transportation of pass
engers on regular system for
children and teachers, for work
ers to and from industrial plants,
for construction projects, where
public facilities are not avail
able.
Trucks operated exclusively in
supplying certain vital public
needs; on farm tractors or other
farm implements other than au-
tos or trucks for which rubber
tires are essential; on industrial,
mining and construction equip
ment other than autos or trucks
for which operation rubber tires
are essential.
The following is an example:
Should a physician wish to Sc
cure a new tire he goes to an
inspection station in his vicinity.
The inspector checks his tires
and if he decides the applicant is
entitled to one, an application
form is filled out in detail. This
form is taken to the tire ration
ing board in his community, or
the county board. If all is in or
der, a permit is issued for pur-
chase of the tire.
Following are the tire ration
ing boards and inspectors in
Licking county:

Just In Case

Labor would do well to
keep a weather eye out for
activities of the state high
kway patrol. A recent COM
Fmunication from the Ohio
Department of Highways
reveals that patrolmen will
be prepared to deal with
widespread disorders and
unanticipated disasters F..
survey all defense plants
provide plant protection,
etc."
Under war time condi-
tions those responsibilities
are perhaps worthy ones, al
though most communities
are being very we'll organic
ed to take care of their own
emergencies.
What labor should be on
their guard against is that
after this war is over a con-
tinuation of those added pa
troll responsibilities does not
react to the extent elimin-
ating picketing and the
right to stril :.
No one NEEDS to worry,
Labor will do it's part in this
emergency, and is proving
that point every minute in
every twenty-four hours by
turning out the vast guam
titles of the guns, shells and
machines of war it will take
to win this fight. But in
their all-out effort it might
be a good idea to keep an
eye on the patrol system
just in case.

Tires And
Safety

Tire rationing brings
with it a pressing problem
of safety.
Many of us are going to
drive on old tires that would
have been traded in sooner
in normal times.
Those tires have a lot
more miles in them, and
6frh care, can render long
Service. But remember that
old slick, tires are very
dangerous at high speeds.
There will be a lot of old
tire accidents unless we are
careful. Old tires, even re-
treaded tires, cannot be ex-
pected to hold up like new
ones. There will be more
blow-outs on the highway
because of aging rubber and
fabric.
Make those old tires last,
but do not expect the same
of them as new ones.

truction of natural resorces is
being sponsored by the organ
ization through the schools.
The club is subscribing in the
name of each of the approx
imately fifty schools in Licking
county to the Ohio Conservation
Bulletin, which will outline many
plans for increased need of con-
servation Of natural resources
and wildlife. 1t is suggesting
that school principals cooperate
in organizing conservation clubs
among school groups to study
the needs of an American Re-
building Program Of Wildlife
Restoration.
The club is going a step far
ther, according to Secretary
Wall, and from time to time will
send letters to the schools
outlining subjects for essays,
speeches and plays.
"The waste and destruction of
our natural organic resources
creates one of the most serious
problems now confronting this
nation" said Wall. "All wealth,
every dollar earned and every
penny Of profit made, comes di-
rectly or indirectly from the soil.
"Three thousand years ago
China was one of the great ma
ions Of the world. The rainbow
of promise had swung on over
her valleys and mountains for
centuries. Her people were happy
and contented. Her fields bore
an abundant food supply for
her teeming millions. Her limpid
streams were productive of a
bountiful supply of food fishes.
"But China forgot the few
simple and fundamental rules
from which had come her wealth,
power and civilization. She for
got to conserve the soil and her
fields became deserts and the
waters of the land sterile. China
descended into the dark ages.
'In our own United States we
are wasting away the soil, the
very source of our wealth and
happiness. Our top soil is being
eroded by wind and water. Over
seventy per cent of the soil is
less productive than it was a
100 years ago.
at is our duty now, to help
conserve that soil, and keep it
we'll populated with the wild
things of nature, before we too,
suffer the fate Of China" con-
cludes Secretary Wall.

Letter Backs Up
Tales Of HerOism
At Pearl HarbOr

A communication from a sail

ark this week. The letter was
censored and for obvious reasons
the Newark Leader is not per-
mitted to mention places, names,
or dates.
The following two paragraphs
should be of interest:
81 can't tell you anything
about that Sunday; but you all
probably have an idea. Our
men were splendid. The feats
of heroism that day will nev-
er be written down because
there were too many of them.
Green recruits right from the
training stations were standing
up to their guns and firing
them like veterans, and hitting
just as they are expected to-"
"You can tell the folks back
home not to worry about our
men. Just give our men the
weapons, the ships, and guns,
and planes, and that's all we
want. We won't go on strike
for an extra dollar a day."
