CpA 10 Allow Spare Tire
On New Cars Next Month
BY the Assoeioted Press

New automobiles delivered after
December 16 can be equipped with
spare tires for the first time since
1912, the Civilian Production Ad-
ministration announced yesterday.
The decision to allow manufac-
turers to sell fifth tires and tubes
with new cars, CPA said, Is based on
estimated production of 10000 900
passenger car tires during the fourth
quarter Of this year.
This output, the agency said.
would allow 100000 tires for re-
placement use, leaving 1000, 900 to
equip new cars with five tires each.
CPA said it is giving advance no.
tice OF the change in regulations
to allow the rubber manufacturing
industry to adjust production sched-
ules. 1t added that the amended
order will contain provision re-
stricting stocks of new tires held
by car manufacturers to the num-
ber needed for new vehicles sched-
uled to be produced in any succeed
ing l5-day period.
The agency estimated 1916 pas
senger car tires output at $3.50 600.
about 100000 less than its original
goal. This expected output COM
pares with 1910 production Of 50.-
100000 passenger car tires.

was TO be feature today of the
second session of the two-day
PARENT Teacher Institute at George.
washington University's Hall Of
Government.
The 10th annual meeting Of the
institute began last night at the
university with an appeal from
Engineer Commissioner Gordon r.
Young to "get behind" the six-year
capital improvement plan and what
ever revenue system is necessary to-
finance 1t.
Also on today's program were
Clarence Pierce, director of the
Washington Social Work Survey,
and John A. Andrews, chief Of the
Federal-State relations section, JUS
tice Department.
Gen. Young told about 200 per-
sons attending the opening session
that the city is broke Further
more, he continued, expected reve-
nues next year won't even cover
operating costs.
Thus IL the city's services and
facilities are to be put on bar
with its population growth during
the war, he explained, one Of two
things must be done: Either Con-
gress must be persuaded to apuro-
PIRATE the necessary money or the
eitys entire tax structure must be
revamped.
More Taxes Necessary.
IF Congress is presented with a
coherent plan, I feel it viii give us
q fair portion of the money We
need" he declared. "But If we are
to spend $4,000, 600 ON city improve
ments over the next six years or SO,
we VIII have to raise a lot of IT
through additional taxes.n4
He said the 10000, 900 figure was
reached after eliminating subways.
highways and the water supply
system from the $225 ,000, 900 esti-
mated total cost of the six-year
plan. He said he left out subways
because they are not necessary. and
highway and water projects are paid
Tor out Of special funds.
He reminded his audience that, a.
special citizens committee Is re-.
shaping the six-year plan for sub
mission to Congress, adding: Il ask
you to get behind whatever plan Is
produced and whatever scheme az
finances is proposed to support iii.
Lawson j. Cantrell, associate Su-
perintendent of schools, discussed
the effect of the six-year plan on
the school system He said many
OF the cityis 172 school buildings are
too old to afford children ethe kind
OF education you want for your own
youngsters" He said it will be
necessary to spend 'two or three
times" as much money as we have
been spending on school buildings
during the last five years If modern
buildings are to replace them.
Cites Part time Classes.
He explained more than 7O00
pupils have been forced into part
time classes this year.
This cut of SO to, so per cent of
q pupils class time can never be
made up" he declared.
A dark future for education un-
less the teacher shortage is solved
