OF COURSE, you don't want to ( 5000 con

Hut this sensational perfurnmnce provcj hy
the m.ist brutal test ever recorded, that anvihing
any ordinary driver want in speed and endur
ance, is child's play to Till; COMMANDER.
Never before has any stock enclosed car in the
world achieved such a maximum of miles in such
a minimum of minutes.

To the car, only a sound like the wind whisking
through a Rrove; to the eve, only a fast moving
bulk with contour dulled by its terrific speed . . .
Eut within the six cylinders of The Commander's
mighty engine a fusillade of red hot explosions
Sver thirty-three million of them during the run!
Connectingrods plunged upward and downward
about eleven million times, wheels revolved over
three million times.
Despite this ordeal, mechanical repairs were
limited to three grease cups (damaged by hasty
greasing) and a spark plug! negligible when
you consider that thisas-
loumung performance is
equivalent to 2 1,000 miles of
ordinary going.

When the balloon tire idea still was

low pressure must be just the oppo

On the high pressure tire, the tread
is rounded, and the tire rides on
the center of the tread.
Put on the Silvertown Balloon the
tread is flattened the tire rides on
the broad, powerful shoulders.
Center-Flexibility is the secret

Millions of motorists know by ex
