Press Release
January 12, 191$—PM 2120
Striking directly at widespread profiteering in se’cond-hand tires, Price Administrator Leon Henderson today announced an emergency schedule of maximum prices for “retreadable” tire carcasses and “retreads” and said he would impose a price ceiling over used tires in the very near future.
Today’s schedule, which goes in effect Monday, January 19, 1942, establishes the maximum prices that may be charged for “retreadable” and retreaded or recapped rubber tires for passenger cars, trucks, busses, agricultural implements, industrial machines, motorcycles, and other vehicles of common use.
The ceiling over used tire prices, expected in a few days, will take the form of an amendment to the OPA schedule of maximum prices over new tires, which was announced on December 30.1 With the issuance of this amendment, Administrator Henderson will have established maximum prices over tires at every stage of condition and use.
“The public must be protected from exploitation,” Mr. Henderson stated. “Your Government has been compelled to suspend sales of tires to ordinary civilian users in order that our armed forces may have adequate supplies. Excepting for doctors, nurses, and public services essential to the general health and safety, civilians will have to equip their cars and trucks with used or retreaded tires. Profiteering in these tires already has reached serious proportions, a condition that cannot and will not be allowed to continue. Your Government cannot permit price to determine who can afford and who cannot afford to buy second-hand tires in this time of war.”
Sets of ceiling prices in today’s schedule are given for the various sizes of used tire carcasses in such condition as to warrant retreading, for the actual retreading or recapping, and for retreaded or recapped tires. Specific top prices are set according to the market price of “camelback” used (the uncured rubber compound which is applied to worn tires to make the new tread) and the depth of the new tread. Maximum prices for retreaded or recapped tires are arrived at by adding together the maximum price of the carcass used and the applicable maximum price for the actual retreading or recapping.
1 Price Schedule No. 63—Retail Prices for New Rubber Tires and Tubes.
Following are the top prices in today’s schedule as applied to the more popular sizes of passenger-car, truck, and tractor tires, using for purposes of illustration (1) the most expensive grade of camelback and the deepest tread depth and (2) the second most expensive grade of camelback and next to the deepest tread depth.

Note.—To obtain the maximum price for retreaded or recapped tires listed under “Trucks” above, add to the carcass price the price of the applicable retreading of recapping job.
There are various other categories of camelback and tread depths for which the schedule lists maximum prices.
A “basic tire carcass”, according to the schedule, means a used rubber tire retaining a maximum of 2/32ds of an inch of the original tread when measured at the shallowest point of the center circumference.
“Retreading” is defined as the process of reconditioning a tire where all of the original tread rubber is removed from the worn tire down to the fabric and new rubber applied to the tread surface and side walls. “Top capping,” the schedule states, means the application of new rubber to the tread surface only, after buffing off the old tread, while a “full cap” involves the application of new rubber to the tread surface and shoulders as well.
Each retreaded or recapped tire sold must be accompanied by a statement to the purchaser reciting whether the tire has been retreaded, top capped, or full capped; the market price of camelback used; and the depth of the nonskid tread at the center of the tire after completion of retreading or recapping.
This is the fifth step affecting tires that the Government has taken since the outbreak of war in the Pacific threatened to halt imports of crude rubber from the Far East. Restrictions on the processing of crude rubber were imposed by the Office of Production Management on December 11 and at the same time all sales of new tires for civilian use were halted temporarily. These actions were followed by OPA’s tire rationing program that limited new tire sales to civilians to uses directly connected with public health and safety. The fourth step was the issuance on December 30 of a schedule of maximum prices at retail over all new tires.2
Under provisions of today’s schedule, on and after 8 a. m. on January 19, 1942, all sellers of retreaded or recapped tires, including establishments engaged in retreading or recapping, are required' to post prominently in their shops or stores a list of maximum prices as determined by the emergency schedule. A copy of the OPA printed price list contained in the schedule may be used for this purpose, or the seller may draw up his own list, using the OPA maximum prices for such sizes of tires as he may handle or such types of retreading or recapping operations as he may perform.
In order to protect buyers, the schedule forbids the addition to the maximum prices of any charges not already in effect. If, on January 9, 1942, any seller made special charges for extending credit, or for demounting or mounting of tires, and wishes to continue such charges after the effective date of this schedule, he must post publicly, on or before 8 a. m. January 19,1942, a sworn statement listing such charges. Unless the list of charges is posted along with the actual maximum price list, no special charges may be collected.
Complete records of all sales of basic tire carcasses, and of retreaded or recapped tires, as well as of retreading and recapping work done, must be kept by sellers for inspection by the Office of Price Administration. These records must include the date of sale, name and address of purchaser, price per unit, market price of camelback used, and depth of nonskid tread at center of the tire.

An Open Letter From Leon Henderson, Administrator of the Office of Price Administration, to Tire Retreading and Recapping Establishments and Sellers of Retreaded or Recapped Tires
War in the Far East, where we normally get over 90 percent of our crude rubber, has compelled your Government to ration new tires in order that our armed forces may be assured of adequate supplies. You have already observed the effect of this on the second-hand tire markets. Overnight the demand for used and retreaded tires has increased a thousandfold, and, unfortunately, this rush of business has resulted in profiteering. A flood of complaints is reaching Washington about tire dealers who are asking fantastic prices for secondhand tires from motorists and truck owners.
Under these circumstances, the Government has stepped in to restore order and to protect the public and those tire dealers who have steadfastly refused to take advantage of the unusual situation by inflating their prices.
The Government’s action takes the form of a maximum price schedule issued by the Office of Price Administration. This schedule, known as Price Schedule No. 66—Retreaded and Recapped Tires, becomes effective on Monday, January 19, 1942. I urge you to read its provisions carefully. You must comply with all of them.
The following is a summary of what the schedule does and what it requires of you as a tire retreader or seller of retreaded or recapped tires:
1. The schedule establishes the maximum prices you may charge for:
(a) “Basic tire carcasses”; that is, tire carcasses retaining a maximum of %2-inch of the original tread at the center.
(6) Retreading or recapping, based upon the market price of the camelback used and the depth of tread after retreading or recapping.
(c) A retreaded or recapped tire.
The schedule contains lists of all of the sizes of tires commonly subjected to retreading and gives specific maximum prices for the carcasses and the various grades of retreading and recapping work. A retreaded or recapped tire may not be sold for more than the total of (a) the maximum price of . the carcass used and (6) the maximum price for tbe retreading or recapping, based upon the market price of camelback used and the depth of tread design imposed.
2. If you operate a retreading establishment or sell retreaded or recapped tires you must post conspicuously on or before 8 AM, January 19, 19/^2, lists of maximum prices as established by the schedule, for tires sold or retreading work done.
3. After 8 AM on January 19, 1942, no matter what price you may have quoted for work on tires now in the process of being recapped or retreaded, you cannot collect any price that exceeds the maximum prices established by the schedule.
4. After 8 AM on January 19, 1942, you cannot collect any special charges for mounting or demounting a tire, extending credit, or any other service unless—
(a) You collected such charges on January 9, 1942; and
(6) You post publicly a list of such special charges, along with the list of maximum prices.
5. You must give to every purchaser of a retreaded or recapped tire or to anyone who has a tire retreaded or recapped a written statement stating whether the tire has been retreaded, full capped, or top capped ; the market price of camelback used; and the depth of the nonskid tread at the center of the tire after it has been retreaded or recapped.
6. You must keep full and detailed records bf your sales for inspection by the Office of Price Administration.
These records must contain date of each transaction; name and address of the purchaser; price per unit; quantity and size of tire sold, retreaded, or recapped, specifying whether the work was retreading; full-capping or top-capping; market price of camelback used; and depth of the nonskid tread at the center of the tire after it has been retreaded or recapped.
7. You also must keep for OPA inspection complete records of your entire inventory of camelback, showing the date of each purchase or acquisition ; name of seller or source ; price paid and stocks on hand as of the 19th and 31st days of January 1942 and as of the last day of each month thereafter.
I have complete confidence that you will cooperate patriotically with your Government in this war emergency. Your patriotic support will make it possible for other Americans to obtain at fair prices the tires they need to keep in operation many passenger automobiles, trucks, and busses that otherwise would disappear from our streets and highways.

Price Schedule No. 661
Retreaded and Recapped Rubber Tires, the Retreading and Recapping of Rubber Tires, and Rasic Tire Carcasses
The war being waged with the Japanese Empire makes uncertain the future shipment of rubber from the Far East, which has hitherto been supplying this country with the greatest part of its crude rubber. In order to conserve for military and essential civilian purposes the rubber stockpile already accumulated in this country, it has been necessary to curtail sharply the consumption of rubber in the manufacture of products not essential to the immediate national defense. The production and sale of new rubber tires and tubes for ordinary civilian use have been greatly curtailed by Supplementary General Limitation Orders M-15-b2 and M-15-c 3 of the Office of Production Management. The maximum prices for which new rubber tires and tubes may be sold at retail have been fixed by Price Schedule No. 63.
A result of the regulation of the manufacture, sale, and price of new rubber tires has been a sudden, greatly increased demand for basic tire carcasses, retreaded and recapped rubber tires, and for the retreading and recapping of rubber tires. In a number of instances, in the last few weeks, prices, excited by the demand, have shot upward without regard to reason and with not even a claim of justification. Indeed, the price of camelback, the principal material used in the retreading and recapping process, was stabilized by action taken by the Office of Price Administration on December 3, 1941. To halt such flagrant profiteering and pending the outcome of a thorough investigation now in process of completion, the Office of Price Administration finds it necessary to issue a Price Schedule establishing as maximum prices the prices presently prevailing. These prices have been established after independent investigation and conferences with the industry.
Accordingly, under the authority vested in me by Executive Order No. 8734,4 it is hereby directed that—
1 7 F. R. No. 9, January 14, 1942. Published as Title 32, ch. XI, Part 1315, Secs. 1315.1201 to 1315.1210, inclusive. Issued as Press Release PM 2120, January 12, 1942.

This order provided as follows:
1. All price schedules, instructions, announcements, forms, and notices heretofore issued, promulgated, or adopted, and all committees formed, by the Advisers on Price Stabilization and Consumer Protection, members of the Advisory Commission to the Council of National Defense, or by the Price Stabilization and Consumer Divisions of the Advisory Commission to the Council of National Defense are hereby ratified, adopted, and continued in effect, until modified, terminated, or superseded, as price schedules, instructions, announcements, forms, notices, and committees, of the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply and the Administrator thereof.
2. This ruling is issued under, and in execution of the purposes of, Executive Order No. 8734, issued by the President on April 11, 1941.

On August 28, 1941, the President issued Executive Order No. 8875/ which transferred the Division of Civilian Supply from the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply to the Office of Production Management. The title of the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply was changed to the Office of Price Administration. On August 30, 1941, Leon Henderson issued a press release stating that all action taken by the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply remained in full force and effect regardless of the change of name to Office of Price Administration. The text of the release is as follows:
All price schedules issued by the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply remain in full force and effect regardless of the change of name announced
16 F. R. No. 73, Apr. 15,1941.
»6 F. R. No. 74, Apr. 16, 1941.
3 6 F. R. No. 170, Aug. 30, 1941.
in the President’s Executive Order of Thursday, Leon Henderson, Administrator of the Office of Price Administration, announced today.
The Executive Order, Mr. Henderson said, merely provides that the title of the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply be changed to Office of Price Administration- It does not affect in any way the powers of the agency in regard to price control. Consequently all price ceiling schedules issued and all other action taken by this agency under the prior name remain fully effective under our new name.4
