The ban on tire sales which was put into effect four days after Pearl Harbor had no effect whatsoever on Hoosier motorists as a whole last month, State Auditor Richard T.
James reported today.
They drove more and bought more gasoline than in any in analyzing 74,956 for

STORE DELIVERY SERVICE GURBED
16 Retail Merchants Urge Customers to Carry Smaller Bundles.
Sixteen Indianapolis retail mere chants “ today announced plans to conserve tires and trucks by the immediate curtailment of suburban delivery service and the elimination of special deliveries. The stores asked their customers to co-operate by carrying small packages with them instead of aske ing for delivery service and by make ing returns in person. The delivery restrictions were adopted voluntarily by the stores through the Indianapolis Merchants Association in a move to extend the life of existing equipment—for which there may be no replacement—as long as possible. Policy Summarized Beginning today, these stores will operate on the following delivery policy: 1. There will be no more special delivery service. 2. Suburban delivery service (oute side the City but inside the County) will be made three times a week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday instead of daily. 3. No merchandise will be delive ered the same day as purchased, except to hotels, garages, stations and parking lots in the downtown area. 4. Regular package delivery schedules will be maintained as long as possible within ‘the City limits but will not exceed one a day.

The commanding officer of the Midway Marines praised the coolness and courage of all hands, but singled out Lieut. Cannon for special commendation. Lieut. Cannon, he reported, was directing fire from a command post when it was struck by a Japanese shell. Both legs and the pelvis were fractured but he refused to be evacuated until other wounded men were first attended. As a result, he died from loss of blood. The report also mentioned Corp. Harold R. Hazelwood, switchboard operator under Lieut, Cannon, who received compound fractures of the leg. In spite of his wounds, he set up his battered switchboard and reestablished communications.
