gagged in essential public services
like the cars of physicians.
Use of Cars Restricted.
But actually the outlook is far
less pessimistic. Every motorist
has been thoroughly scared. Use
of family cars is being restricted
to essential purposes. Long pleasure
trips on country roads where high
speeds are possible have been given
up for the duration. The use of
cars, it Is estimated, will be cut
down at least one-third.
At speeds below so miles an hour,
tire engineers say, the wear on a
tire Is cut down nearly half.
This means that the average
lifetime of three and a half years
will be increased considerably. But
this hardly will apply to the ST.
O00, 900 1889 tires which have had
three years of peacetirne service
and presumably are near the end
of their usefulness. From the
same considerations, 1910 tires have
deteriorated two-thirds. and only

largest In history. Much Of the fore
cast necessarily was for military use.
America still produces plenty Of
gasoline for both military and civil
ian use If bottlenecks in transporta-
tion-especially the shortage Of
tankers+can be overcome and there
is every prospect that civilian use
will be cut down at least a third. and
possibly half, by the end of the
year.
The rubber shortage will conserve
gasoline and without 1t more specific
conservation measures probably
would have been necessary.
