Inspection Must Be Completed
by Jan. 81; Checkers Are
Announced.

Ely motor car owners are reminded
that JAM 81 is the deadline for get
ting tires on passenger cars inspected
in compliance with the mileage ration
: ing program, and that they should not
wait until the final days Of the month
to get the job done.
Official tire inspectors, selected by
the state office of Price Administra-
ton, have been announced, as follows:
John Koschak Central Garage.
Jacobson's Service.
Slogan Gas & Oil company.
Forest Chevrolet company.
Rothman Garage.
Ely Motor Sales.
Koschak of the Central Garage is
the one official inspector for TRUCK
TIRES and also for FOREST PRO-
DUCT HAUIERS.
1t is understood here that there are
no restrictions on recapping passenger
car tires other than that of necessity
Tires of any passenger car that require
it can be recapped, it is believed, for
no instructions to the contrary have
been received here.
Persons who have their cars stored
for the winter must either have the
tires inspected or turn over their
gasoline A books to the local war
price and ration office.
Passenger car owners must go to the
official inspection station to have their
cars tires checked. Here's what the
inspectors will do:
If the tires are in good running con-
dition, which the inspector can de-
termine by looking at them as they
stand on the car, the maximum fee
for the service will be Is cents.
If any of the tires look as if they
need attention, the inspector is auth
orized to remove the tire from the
wheel and charge the motorist so cents
for each such removal. There are OPA
ceilings on any service that has to be
rendered the tire.
Where tires are in good running con-
dition, the inspector viii place his Of
fetal stamp on the motorists tire in
spection record, which is the lower half
of the application form he filled out
when applying for his basic A mileage
ration book. That is all there is to
the inspection for the NEXT FOUR
MONTHS for holders of only A books.
If the motorist has B or C card,
he must have his tires inspected every
so days.
Where the tires need attention-say
recapping-the inspector does not put
On his stamp until the job has been
attended to. The motorist is not obi
gated to have the man who inspects
his tires do any repair work. He can
have that attended to wherever he
pleases. But he must bring the tire
back to the inspector for final approval
and stamp when the job is completed
The procedure is the same for truck
ers and motorcyclists, except that the
fee for demounting a truck tire will
range from rs cents for a small truck
to $1.50 where an inside dual tire must
be removed. The maximum fee where
no tire is removed is Is cents for
trucks, as well as for passenger cars
and motorcycles.

Council Names Lenich,
Maxi to Fill Vacancies
Mayor Requests Adoption
of .SaUing' Policy for
Current Year.

In it's first formal session of
the year Tuesday night, the
city council appointed two new
aldermen, heard a plea from
the mayor to ''save for post
war" contingencies, and then
adjourned until tonight at 8
o'clock.
Tony j. Shorty" Lenich
and J. Emil Maxi were named
aldermen to fill two vacancies.
They were sworn in immedi-
ately.
At tonight's session the
council will name department
heads and complete organiza-
ton work. Mayor John Kapsch
will announce his standing
committees, which he delayed
filling until the two vacancies
were taken care of.
Lenich fills the position resigned
by Toimi Ahola, new fourth district
commissioner, and Maxi succeeds
John N. Maxi. Both will serve until
the end of 1913.
In resolution adopted at the meet
ing, the council declared John N. Maxi
had apparently abandoned his position
as alderman and declared it vacated.
The resolution pointed out that Maxi
had not attended meeting since Aug
z, 1912, and was believed to be in
Greenland.
Mayor Kapsch made the following
points in his statement to the council:
l. That the city attorney be directed
to draw up postwar fund resolution,
and that use of the fund be restricted
to postwar projects. He said $4,000
or $4,000 should be set aside this year
2. Because of war restrictions, ma
terials viii be available only for
maintenance. and permanent improve
ments will have to be limited to re-
pair work. He pointed out that the
city found it impossible last year to
obtain asphalt for road work, but that
an attempt might be made this sum-
mer to secure it in powdered form for
test use.
3. That monies should be saved and
used to purchase bonds or placed in
a sinking fund to retire the city's in
debtedness.
Thinking nearly a year ahead" he
said, "the sinking fund would make
1t easier on the taxpayers next
October when the levy is made. 1t
might be possible to give them a
little relief in the form of a lower
levy"
4. That the labor setup in the COM
missioner's department should be more
satisfactory, and that rulings should be
created which would be binding for
the rest of the year.
This would be better for the man
that's working, better for the city, and
better all the way around" the mayor
said.
The appointment Of Lenich and
Maxi, with Alderman Joseph Ko-
schak offering the motions for both,
was unanimously approved. Lenich
was fourth high in the race for alder
man in the last city election. Maxi is
secretary of local 1864 of the United
Steelworkers of America, CLIO.
Before the vacancies were filled the
bills and payroll for last month were
allowed. They could not be taken care

of the lack of a quorum

which otherwise would interfere
with the free movement Of military
vehicles. Some bridges will be con-
structed where the new road will
cross such important highways as
Nichols, Alabama and Branch ave-
nues and the Silver Hill road, which
now leads direct to Suitland.
The necessary rights Of way on
which to construct the highway are
already in the process of acquisition,
it was announced. For that reason,
1t was not believed that actual con-
struction will get under way for
quite while.
Federal planners declare the mill
tary highway fits perfectly into
postwar plans for opening up East
ern areas of suburban Washington.
That section is now one Of rapid
expansion and the need of new
highways has long been urgent.
1t was hoped, too, the construc-
ton of the military highway would
hasten plans and appropriations for
the proposed Suitland parkway
route. The route is laid down on
paper, but no work has yet been
done, its development having been
held up by the war.
The Camp Springs Meadows air
base is the home of the lst Fighter
Command, an important base for
the protection Of Washington and
vicinity from possible enemy air
raids. The flow of military trafIic
between 1t and Boiling Field now
must follow a long and circuitous
route.

Army 10 Build Road
From Camp Springs 10
Boiling Field Base
BY NELSON SHEPARD.

A military highway providing
direct access from the new Camp
Springs Meadows Md air base
in Prince Georges County to
Boiling Field will be constructed
by way of the proposed Suitland
parkway route, the War Depart
ment announced. last night.
In addition to providing an unin-
terrupted flow of military traff1c be-
tween the two Army air bases, the
highway is designed ultimately to
serve the transportation needs OF
several thousand Government em-
ployes now oflced at Suitland. The
route chosen for the military high
way will cut the normal travel dis
tance between the two air bases to
Ga miles and save considerable time
for vehicles travelling to and from
Washington.
The proposed military highway
has been under discussion between
the War Department and various
governmental agencies for a long
time. Maj. Gen. Eugene Reybold,
chief Of engineers, has assigned it's
planning and construction to the
United States Engineers Office in
Washington.
Planning Commission Pleased.
John Nolen, director of planning
for the National Capital Planning
Commission. expressed the satisfac-
ton of that group last night over
the rapidly developing plans for the
new military highway. He was
especially gratified that the high
way, generally. will follow the
course of the Suitland parkway
which has been planned carefully
for number of years.
Back in 1887, when a Federal
commission first r &c m m n d d
Camp Springs s-Meadows as the site
for a commercial airport, the Plan
ming Commission began a study
of convenient highway routes. In
more recent months, since the con-
struction of a Government Office
building at nearby Suitland, the
commission had pushed plans for
the construction of parkway lead
ing into the city and Boiling Field.
The War Department said the
route of the military road would
be largely through undeveloped ter
ritory and will traverse the Gov
ernment property already acquired
at Suitland
The highway ultimately will be
four lanes wide, but only two-lane
strip is contemplated at present.
Route Is Secret.
For military reasons the exact
route the highway will take was not
divulged. The department said it
will follow an entirely new route"
but by that it meant it would about
parallel the proposed Suitland Park
way route.
To a large extent it will run along
valleys to avoid grade crossings

ed in advancing in one sector north
of Orel and capturing several settle
nents despite stubborn resistance
and counterattacks by newly arrived
Nazi units. A number of the new

Front dispatches said at least
1000 Nazis fell before the Russian

However, both the battle below

the front is settling down to a new
