WARNING TO
MOTORISTS
THE TIMES today is in re
ceipt of the following warning
from the U. S. Fuel Administra
tion regarding the wasteful
methods of handling gasoline
and oil and gives it space:
"There is no desire to put the
country on a fuel ration but it is
necessary that all users discon
tinue all wasteful uses of fuel
oil, gasoline, kerosene and ail
other oil products.
"Motorists should net run
their engines when the car is not
in motion. They should avoid
overfilling tanks and see that no
oil or gasoline is spilled or al-
low
:Q
to
leak.
Carburetors
snoui-a oe aaiusxeu io opcid.c uu
the thinnest mixture. All un
necessary driving should be dis
couraged. "If sufficient gasoline and oil
cannot ' saved from what in
now wasted in the ways above
suggested, then such mandatory
control as will assure the quan
tities needed for the conduct of
the war will be inevitable."
