While the motorist, as a citizen, has been willing to assist the Government in problems of administration, a limit must be set to the burden imposed upon him. If you, as a car owner, are content to assume the added burden represented by a 2-cent increase in the gasoline tax, there is nothing you need do. Your silence will be interpreted as consent. If you are not content, and wish to place yourself on record to that effect in the only quarter where your objection will carry weight, call at your regular service station, whether it be a B-A station or any other, and ask for a card which has been distributed for your convenience. Just sign it, fill in your address, and leave it with the station attendant. ] The Island of Timor, in the Malay! `Archipelago, has nearly 100,000 {sandalwood trees, each one register- !
