TYRES AND TUBES
CONTROL NOTICES
A tyres and tubes control notice issued last night prohibits owners of new or used motor tyres or tubes not affixed to a vehicle as part of the normal equipment from selling or parting with the possession of them without the consent of the secretary of the Ministry of Supply and Munitions. Also, no person who on December 14, 1941, had such tyres or tubes in his possession, control, or on order may use them without first obtaining similar authority. In addition, the order requires that no person whose business or part of whose business is the sale of tyres or tubes shall use any new motor tyres or tubes without consent. Another notice requires that everyone who on March 31 had in his possession or on order new motor tyres or tubes not affixed to a vehicle as part of the normal equipment must make a return of them by Monday next. This means that those who made returns in compliance with a notice issued in December last are not absolved from making fresh returns of the position of. their stocks as at March 31 last. New tyres and tubes are defined in the notice as those which have been run 1000 miles or less, but those on the four wheels of a vehicle and the spare tyre usually carried are excluded.
