store their cars in garages or on public or privately rented lots. some will sell their cars and probably Tee ceiVo more than they paid for them
 because of the value Of the usable parts. -.
 Normally about 2,60O,ooo cars are junked each year and replaced by new cars, but with new car produce ton stopped, and e strict rattoning of the remaining supplies to carry thru ie42 and io43, it is expected that the trend will be to run cars as long as tires last.
 Transportation situation Critical
 Few people realize that the transs portation situation is 90 critical. More than 20,000,000 people live in cities and communities which are served only by bus service, and the trend in the larger cities has been away from increasing the capacity of trolley equipment. Of the l4l,000 buses in the United States, e3,000 are school buses. The heavy demand for metals in defense needs has curs tailed even normal bus expansion. Even replacement Of worn.out buses presents . serious problem. Out of the many plans suggested to help meet the problem, the Michigan plan" Is gaining prominence and Of" flclal blessing in Washington. The plan originated in Pontiac, Michi. gan, where almost everybody rides ln car or in c bus. Shopping hours
 have been shortened, schools opened later, factory hours staggered, and workmen's lear clubs" formed to haul three or four in . car besides the driver,
 What will happen when the tires on cars used by essential workers wear outP Requisitlonlng of the spares of non-essential car owners could help solve the problem for c time, and sweeping requisitioning of oil passenger car tires Of non-es. Sential workers would solve it for some time to come. These drastic steps can be confidently expected if as seems almost certain-a long war is ahead.

Washington, D. O., April 22-Cold facts indicate that the American motoring public iS headed for a series of tolts-and not merely the sort that may result from riding in friends cars or in crowded busSea and trolley cars, There are almost 34,000 900 motor vehicles in the United States, of which nearly 20,- 100000 are passenger cars, Q nunl- ber sufilcient to haul the entire population (i32,00o,000) ct one time,
 Americans have learned to depend largely on motor vehicles for much of their transportation. Singled out from the total of necessity uses, driving to work and using the car on the Job account for roughly ores half of oil automobile usage in the United States. These two objeetiveS consume more mileage than oil 70. cial and rccreational travel com. bined.
 Tire ratloning has shaply curtailed automobile use for social and rec. reational purposes, and gasoline rAs tionlng will further curtail even the use of automobiles for transporta- ton to and from work. BusineSs houses arc refusing deliveries of care ryable items to their customers homes, and each automobile owner now thinks twice before he drives around the corner to mail . letter.
 Parts Also On Way Out
 Tn the not too distant future one may foresee the sharp clEtailment or complete stoppage of the produe. ton of automobile replacement [ parts, and thls, coupled with tire and gasoline rationlng, will result In many cars becoming idle before the end Of their normal fife span.
