TIRE and CAR
SALES TO
PRICE CONTROL

Tire rationing will end January 1,
1916, at 1901 am, the Office of Price
Administration announced. In the
meantime no tire certificates will be
issued by local Price Control boards
except in hardship cases.
H. K Anderson, price executive,
of the Montana District OPA office
called attention to the fact that even
though tires will be unrationed they
are still subject to price control. Due
to the fact that there will still be
shortages in supply the OPA will
watch compliance carefully so that
any operations may be avoided which
would deprive legitimate purchasers
of tires at reasonable prices. The
OPA sets dollar-an¢ ceiling
prices on the sale of all new tires.
Ceiling prices on used passenger
cars will be reduced four per cent on
January 1, 1916, according to OPA.
1t is possible that warranted ceilitng
prices on 1941 and 1912 used cars in
the low-price class may be further re-
duced in order to place them in proper
with prices for 1916 low
priced passenger cars. OPA regula-
tons provide for reduction in used
car ceiling prices each six months.
