Motorists Will Keep Within 35-Nfile
Limit or BE Grounded for Duration
OLYMPIA, Nov. 11--It has long
been custom to treat speed laws
lightly, a small fine or warning
being the rules in many cases.. but
the 35-mile speed law is different.
This time it means just what it
feel it is not speed at all yet, all
viii oeselye it or walk for the dura
ton, and there is no warning period
either llany are finding to the sor-
row..
AS an example one violator of the
35-mile regulation received two new
tires after days of effort and wait
ing, and the afternoon of the same
day was tried for his infraction of
the regulation. The rationing board
demanded and took his new tires
after his conviction We are told by
ll1C otdLS pau VI CudI Auuul CUP "
license numbers of "speeders" are
being forwarded to the rationing
board, and new ones are being added
daily. This will shut Off not only
tires but gasoline as well before the
end of the month. There's is no fool
ing this time. It's under 80 miles
per hour or else!
Tires Must Be Checked Or No
Gasoline for Motorists
One Of the requirements for all
motorists before gasoline will be
provided after rationing starts will
be certificate showing that all
tires have been checked at least
each Sky days. Checking does not
mean checking for inflati.n which

week, but the sixty day check will
be for cuts, wheel alignment and
such, and will require the payment
of fee of 25 cents for each passen-
ger car, which is cheap enough in
surance for the protection of tires,
as faulty alignment alone can cause
many dollars of damage in peace
time before it is noticed by the own
