Army freight is. paramount on roads and railways, ; The use of private cars has been drastically reduced by rationing of gasoline, increased price of gasoline and tires, and greatly increased taxa- tion on the horsepower, The net result may be illustrated by the fact that 1,000,000 cars were laid up during the first three months of the war. Sales in July, 1940, were one-quarter those in 1938, and the purchase of new cars was thereafter forbidden. : C--O ------------------ '.
