I'erklns, Kuril deiile.r In l.u Oiunde who drives u Lincoln sedan, returned to l.u Grande Tlnirsduy lifter spendlnK some time on a vacation trip to the coast. Mr. I'erklns had ejpecled lo stay two weeks but on meelinjf Ills fel low playmates, Charles Reynolds and Kliller Hloddard also pleasure bent he was persuaded to remain u third. . The trio spent many en joyable days on the Rolf links ul .Seaside and Astoria. Mr, I'erklns was accompanied by Mrs. I'erklns and his son, Claire. Mrs. I'erklns also enjoys considerable reputullon as u Boiler. Ituliber, UiiIiIm'I' . U Wheeler and II. 1 Kleiner, with the Pennsylvania Kuhher company, arc quite unlike the or dinary lire salesmen. They ure ad' vocation that Die dealers buy no more tlilin their normal supply of tires. The reason fur this attitude, according? to. Mr. Wheeler, who acted as spokesman lor III! party, Is thai the price is, of course set by the demand., Khould the tire dealers 1 houf-'.'loilt the country at tempt to store slocks of tires against ull anticipated raise In price the Inevitable will happen and the llres will take unother Jump. Hhoiild the coiistimpl Ion be anywhere near normal no further raise In the price of crude rubber Is anticipated. The price is not the 'result of a world shortage of rubber, said the siilesinan. hut rather comes thromrh suppression of tllo production nnd a failure to Import sufficient rubber to supply tlio demand. Mr, Wheeler Blves another kiikIc to the situation which is not often thought of. lie states that tires urn no hlBher now than they werti In lil'Ji while the mlleuKii hus been vastly increased and tliu uvcruBo life of each tire thus lengthened considerably.
