Tire Shortage Hits Defense Trucking Needs Across State
COLIMIUS, Feb. A tire shortage disrupting defense material transport may force state fire rationing authorities to adjust county quotas. Evie Ferguson, director of state fire rations, said Akron Dayton Wilmington McCantellsville and other hubs report inadequate tire and tube supplies. A state advisory council may be formed to help rationing authorities reapportion county quotas. New regulations give the state coordinator power to reallocate quotas, potentially reducing some counties with light demand and swapping passenger tires for truck tires to address the shortfall.

Auer Warns on Free Discussion in Wartime Speech
Auer cautioned that free discussion must be responsible with careful wording. Honest, fact based criticism should be welcomed, but discussions on national polls require full facts. He endorsed common sense censorship in vital military matters while defending the right to be heard amid war.
