~ "If YOU want new cars,
equipped with new tires, take
care of what you have now"
This sage advice is offered
by l.. d. TompkinS. deputy rub
her director and vice president
Of the l., S. Rubber Co. He
gave it yesterday before the
National Auto Dealers Assoc
ciation meeting and he reltcr-
atcd II in "A chat with this
reporter after the meeting.
New tires will not he pleati-
ful for a year or more yet"
TompkinS stated. But that
does not mean that tranSporta-
ton OF the nation will suffer.
"Our recapping facilities have
expanded greatly" he stated.
I'VE have the machinery. the
camelback and the manpower 10
recap 25,000,000 tires year
plus 5000, 900 truck tires. That,
with the small amount OF tires
available for ratiOning, should

Mileage No Test

"If the public will only fol-

and look after their tires, there
should he no crisis" nc said
I'VE have recapping facilities
built up where II can take care
Of those who need that service.
The quality Of recapping and
the camelback both have inn
proved"
Tompkins injected an inter-
eSting note in his discussion on
rationing OF tires He said that
the rubber directors office was
Of the opinion that mileage
should not be the yardStick 10
measure needs for new tires
and that II was working on
plan 10 separate the two.
The fact that a driver Is per-
mitted gasoline for sol miles

that he should be allowed new

Small Italian Village Is Converted
Into RecreatiOnal Center For Army

One of the most interesting side
lights of the current rugged battle
for Italy was told here yesterday
by Captain James L. Neighbours,
officer in charge of the local Sal
walton Army unit.
The story carries the pictures
que dateline of Maple Leaf
Italy" and concerns a little Ital-
ian village which has been con-
verted by the Salvation Army into
a recreational center and can
teen serving some $500 Allied
fighting men daily.
Maple Leaf wasn't the towns orr
ginal name, of course, but that
was the name with which it was
e-christened in honor of the Cana
dian soldiers who effected its cap
ture in the invasion of Italy.
In telling the story of Maple
Leaf Captain Neighbours, cited
a message received from Briga-
dier Wesley W. Bouterse, Saliva
ton Army Carolinas Commander
in Charlotte. Brigadier Bouterse,
in turn, was relaying the story as
it has come back to Salvationists
in the States.
''Under the guidance of Saliva

for five hundred men. It has recre-

Maple Leaf. The Salvation Army
men under Major Welbourn didn'
wait for the Canadian forces to sci
up housekeeping in Maple Leaf
before getting on the job. Major
Welbourn and his men moved right
in with the landing forces and, as
a consequence, lost all the Saliva
ton Army equipment in the land
ing operation-an inconvenience,
it seems, but nothing more.
The Salvationists attached them
selves to beach DIR ssing stations,
washed wounded soldiers, took
cables and messages for relatives
of the fighting men, gave solace
to the dying. Salvationists assist

all cases an identifying cross.
