Tire thieves scored their first
success in the field of new tires
and tubes last night in the filling

were informed today.
The bandits stole a complete set

This was the first reported case
Of new tires being stolen from a

Tire Inspection Service
For District Perfected

Methods of inspecting tires and
handling applications for new tires
at District inspection stations were
perfected yesterday at a meeting of
the men appointed to the District
Tire RatiOning Board and Trafiic
Director William A. Van Duzer.
1t was decided that old tires
found unfit for recapping or re-
treading will be branded as such
to avert any possible cheating on
the part of applicants for new
tires. Successful applicants under
the tire rationing plan, it was
pointed out, have 30 days in which
to use the certificates given them
for new tires. Unless the old tires
are marked it would be possible for
unscrupulous applicants to transfer
the tires to another vehicle and
apply for more tires.
The board approved 10 new appli-
cations for tires. 1t will meet later
in the week for consideration of
other applications. The names of
those given certificates this week
will be announced Saturday.

Price Recommends
Higher Salaries for
Virginia Teachers
Free Textbooks Also
Urged in Message
To General Assembly
BY the Associated Press.

RICHMOND, Va. Jan. H-Gov.
Price, in his last general message to
the Virginia General Assembly, rec
commended today that funds be pro-
vided for the teacher salary and re-
tirement goals Of the three point
school program and for free text
books for grammar school pupils.
Nearing the close of his term with
q surplus that Is expected to reach
nearly $13,OO0,000. the retiring ex-
ecutive also announced to the open
ing session of the Legislature that
he would propose in his budget mes
sage that a substantial part of this
sum be set aside for future needs.
He mentioned no figures in con-
nection with the school teachers
salary recommendations, but said he
was carrying in the budget "a sum
sufficient to complete the salary
program" which, in his message of
two years ago, was outlined as an
increase from $610 to $500 in the
State appropriation per teacher SAL
ary unit during the first year of the
new biennium and an increase from
$500 to $720 the second year.
Wartime Bonus Suggested.
An actuarially sound retirement
plan was proposed for State en-
ployes generally, as well as school
teachers, and the Governor further
cheered low paid State workers with
q suggestion that the Legislature
consider relieving their pinched
budgets with a war-period bonus"
for those receiving less than $4,000
a year. Specifically, he said 10
per cent increase on the first 81 900
of salary and a per cent increase
on the second $1,000, with the con-
dition that no increase should carry
the total beyond $4,000, would ap-
pear to be reasonable"

guided the affairs of the Common
