How Car Owners Will Benefit
Under Tires for All Program

The average auto owner cannot
get a new, used or recapped tire
now, but instructions for carryine
out the tires for all" program are
expected to be issued within a
month by the office of price adj
ministration.
The plan is to provide tires fol-
essential operations of cars. The
type of tire the driver gets will de-
pend on the amount of driving by
the car owner in his business and
necessary household pursuits.
The distributing of tires will be
a gradual process, based entirely
on the needs of individual owners
the number of tire carcasses that
are fit to be recapped and the
number of second hand and new
tires that are fit to be recapped
and the number Of second hand
and new tires that are available
for eligible buyers.
The kind Of tire authorized will
depend on how much driving a
person is permitted to do under
gasoline rationing. In this wav
government officials say, national
gasoline rationing, which goes into
effect Nov. %, will operate to con-
troll n conserve the nations rub
Der supply by regulating how long
tires will last.
Other questions and answers
about the tire pro:
What about the person who has
only an A gasoline ration book
emitting him to drive only $3.50
miles a year? Is he to be en-
titled to new tires when his old
ones wear out?
II his tires are not too far gone.
ne will be permitted to have them
'ecapped. If they r too worn for
'ecapping, he will get used tires.
Thus, the tires he gets will not be
'ery good, but they will be ade-
Iuate to keep his a going if he
care of them and does not
more than IS miles per hour.
VIII those who have larger gas {
ration-the holders of b, C and '
other books-be permitted to get !
better grades of tires? !
In some cases, yes. Those who
an prove their need for new tires I
ill get them in the various grades !
frozen in dealers hands. t
'thers will get recaps. h
low does an eligible person go
about getting a tire recappcd? h
He applies to a local ration
oard, and gets an inspection GER
ficate which he takes to any OPA
re inspector. usually a tire deal
The inspector decides whether t
lie tire is recappable. If it is, the Il
pplicant fills out a form which t
passed upon by the board. If v
lie board approves the application,
issues a rationing certificate.

To the Voters of Valley County:
Due to the fact that l am in the Navy, l will be unable
to make any campaign in support of my candidacy for
reelection as County Attorney of Valley County, Mon
tana.
In 1941 the Montana Legislative Assembly passed a
law providing that any person holding an elective office
who was called to military service could upon his return
to civilian life complete his unexpired term. This will
mean that if I am reelected 1 will again be your County
Attorney after the war is over, if l return before, the
next term of office expires.
In the interim the County Commissioners have APP
pointed Thomas Dignan as Acting County Attorney. 1
feel that he will handle the office in a capable manner
and will receive the County Attorneys salary while he is
acting in such capacity. l receive no salary from the
County while l am in the United States Navy.
l will appreciate your vote on November Bird and &C
lively urge your support of the entire Democratic ticket
from top to bottom.

To Valley County Voters

Before the primary election, I addressed an open letter to you
explaining that conditions made it impossible for me to see all
of you. Now, those conditions are even more stringent. I have
faced the same problems as every beet and wheat farmer. All my
help has gone in the draft. AS chairman Of the local Farmers
Union Oil Company, most of my spare time has been taken up
with new plans since the recent disastrous fire. Gas rationing is
not many weeks away. I believe you can appreciate this situation
and will understand why I cannot visit with each of you personally
as I would like to do.
In a brief way, I want to sketch my background and expert
ence. I am a native of Valley county and my parents are pioneer
residents of the county. I received my education in the Glasgow
