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

. 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.

For a car aalesman, or any oilier

man of remarkably few words. He
knows whereof he speaks when It
comes to cars but he evidently feels
that Htudobaker cars can sell
themselves to the. buyer without

has been successful Is proven by
