TIRE SHORTAGE IS
STILL ACUTE HERE
OPA Office Says Quotas Are
But Slightly Increased, De-
mand Exceeds Supply

Emphasizing that the tire short
age is still of major proportions,
district officials of the office of
price administration in Helena point
out the slight increases in tire
quotas and the relaxation of some
restrictions means only that produc-
ton is increasing. Quota control re-
mains essential, OPA declares.
Misinterpretation of the new
regulations has resulted in the local
boards throughout the state being
flooded with applications for tire
certificates with present requests
exceeding the May quota for Mon
tana by 800 per cent. Although
OPA officials report they are using
every means to secure additional
quotas from the regional office, re-
quests for additional tires cannot be
handled fully.
War Price and Rationing Boards
have been instructed to carefully
screen all applications, issuing GER
tificates within quota limitations to
only essential applicants. In max
ing this determination, consideration
is given the relative Importance of
the applicants occupation, as it
contributes to the war effort, and
the applicants comparative need of
tires.
District officials state that grade
III tires in most sizes are available
in Montana. Due to uneven distri-
button, local dealers in smaller areas
may not have them on hand. The
with a valid certificate
will find grade III tires in larger
districts. War price and rationing
boards or the district OPA can ad-
wise any ISL where grade III
tires may be found.
OPA reminds consumers they
must retain their passenger tire in
spection record, which is submitted
to the war price and rationing
board with the application for tire
requirements and with gasoline ap-
plications. Tire inspectors may GER
tify for replacement only those tires
are beyond repair. 1t was
pointed out that a consumer driving
tires past the repairaDle and re-
point is not entitled to re-
placement tires for he has contribut-
ed to the tire failure by willful
tire abuse.

81 am a young man and nat
urally strong and healthy, but
for about four years have had
an awful time with nervous in
digestion, constipation and pleu-
risy. l always had a bad taste
in my mouth, and was consti-
pated and tired all the time. In
fact 1 simply felt rotten. I tried
lots of medicine recommended by
friends and others but nothing
seemed to give me relief. From
time to time 1 would read of
others with similar troubles get
ting wonderful relief by taking
Wong Suns Chinese Herbs, so 1
thought if it helped them, why
not me? 1 went to see Wong
Sun and started taking his Chi
nese Herbs. I started feeling
better right away. My stomach
stopped bloating, and aching, my
appetite has improved, I sleep
better, and in fact, I am begin

An Approach To
Juvenile Delinquency

Late this spring we called to-
gether student officers from our
various high schools who agreed we
should have a city-wide student
council so that our high school stu
dent bodies will act in a uniform
manner on projects affecting the
teen age youth in our schools.
This project should and will be
further advanced this fall.
The personnel of the schools have
made an excellent start in under
standing and working MORE
CLOSELY with case working agen-
cies, recreation organizations and
other community service groups.
This in-service training should be
continued, keeping in mind the rea-
son for the existence of these or
ganizations-THE CHILDREN.
MUCH consideration sh Guild be
1Nl given to the idea of COM
munity or city counseling center, a
place where youth and adults could
go for information, advice and help.
On the staff of this center, or
available for service, should be a
social worker, a health officer, a
pSychiatrist, psychologist, recre-
ational director,'a vocational special
list, and welfare representative.
This city supported counseling
center should be at the service of
RETURNING WAR VETERANS
and adults, as well as youth. Here
would be preventive measure that
could analyze, diagnose and recon-
mend treatment.
AS we, who are vitality interested
in youth, endeavor to guide children
that they maYliYe more satisfying
lives, let us bear in mind that:
-. child more than all other gifts
That earth can offer
Brings hope With il and forward
looking thoughts"

San Francisco Unified School District
WE IN San Francisco should feel
w very fortunate that we have
weathered the crises of the juvenile
delinquency wave.
No one organization or group pre-
vented the outbreak of serious gang
riots or other such possible youth
disturbances, but the UNITED Eff
FORT and the CLOSE CO-ORDI-
NATION of our many public and
private organizations.
From all of this we have learned
at least two things.
Major civic problems can be
solved by service organizations in a
community working on a representa-
tive program.
Secondly, a program is more sue
cessful when the participants think
in HUMAN TERMS-in terms of
those involved.
In this case, San Francisco
planned in terms of WHAT YOUTH
CONSIDERED ESSENTIAL.
Our juvenile delinquency problem
is not solved yet. Our road is much
more smooth and our hopes are
more comforting.
The watchword should be that of
ALERTNESS and continuous
UNITY OF ACTION.
uERE, briefly, is summary of our
II youth activities in the schools:
The third annual report of the
department of counseling and guild
ance, among other things, will show
that from the standpoint of the en-
=ployers, parents, and students our

pUT that is the obvious way to
~ awaken our millions of vote
slackers to a sense of their duty.
A CITIZEN NEGLECTING TO
VOTE IN THREE CONSECUTIVE
NATIONAL ELECTIONS SHOULD
BE FINED 500 AND IF HE
SHALL FAIL TO VOTE FOR
FIVE SECUTIVE ELEC-
TIONS, HE SHOULD LOST HIS
CITIZENSHIP.
A bill to that effect should be
introduced in Congress.
1t may be that this very threat to
force chronic vote -sla ckers TO per-
form their public duty would be
sufficient.
Every foreigner who comes here
to make his home has, generally, one
desire-that is, to become a citizen
of the country.
He looks on his naturalization
papers as a precious treasure.
And yet there are millions of
native born Americans who have all
the rights of citizenship by virtue of
birth but who throw away the most
precious Of all those rights - the
right to vote.
THIS right to vote is personal par
L ticipation in our form of govern
ment.
The voter becomes in the polling
booth literally one of the rulers of
his own country.
II we are afflicted with political
Ills and INSCRIPTIONS political bosses
1t is the fault of the vote Stacker, for
the gang" always votes.
The disease is hstlessness, care
lessness, cock sureness.
The cure is plain
II citizen does not value his citi.
zenship enough to exercise his most
precious privilege conscientiously
and periodically, he should cease to
be a citizen
IF AN AMERICAN SPURNS
THE BALLOT, HIS COUNTRY
SHOULD SPURN HIM.

BEHIND
The NEWS
By Pau
MaIIor
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29-The
W headlines say:

WASHlNGTON, Aus. 29-The
w headlines say:
Eggs head upswing In cost
OF living"
The announcement is made
by MIR. RooSevelt'S labor secre-
tary, Frances Perkins, who
makes no comment.
simultaneously coming to my
desk, is a letter from Elmer
Kennedy. of a Colorado typo
graphical union. Directing 10
my conclusion that labor gets
lis wage increases from bust
ness profits, and. therefore. Is
wrong in advocating increasing
business taxation which will
limit its opportunity for future
wage advances.
He says tand all labor looks
at II this way, through the
wrong end of the SpyglaSS)
wages paid by business are
considered expense. the same as
taxes, cost of materials, etc,
and profits are what is left
after the expenses are paid.
Behind these two events lies
the whole story of the unwiSe.
If not suicidal course of current
labor and political leadership on
wages, taxes and profits.
LIVERY time a price goes up,
~ all wages automatically de-
cline 10 the same extent. Every
cent more you pay for eggs,
bread, fresh vegetables. fruit.
etc, is cent reduction in your
pay.
But does Miss Perkins, the
labor secretary, protest Do
labor leaders fight the increas-
ing of prices?
Not at all. Oppositely. they
seek out price increases, adjust
their statistics so as to stress
price increase, in order to claim
more wages.
They do not have the con-
sumegS' interest IN this basic
matter. although they are con-
sHmerS. They strive always 70
get ahead of the game with
demands for wage increases, but
are always behind it
Indeed they do worse than
that, from their own stand
point. They demand wage
increases which will directly
cause price increases. and thus
defeat themselves as consumers
by their own leadership.
How is the worker better off
with a so per cent wage in
crease II prices GO up 100 per
cent. or even 81 per cent? Such
a wage increase is really a
reduction
