number of electrics warrant Much a
performance Is being met and solved
bv various sections of the Electric Ve
hicle Association of- America, whose
general office la at 19 West Thirty-

organisation of live and progreswlve

The first thing which Impresses me,
of course, is what all visitors to your
country talk- about your vast dis
tances. "
The speaker was H. E. .Smith, of
John lladdon & Company. London. He
had just reached the Firestone Com
pany plant from the San Kraiclsco Fair
and had a fresh impression of the Im
portance Americans give to travel
methods, which are the first thing to
ImpreKB any visitor to this country.
"We taik of beautiful spots abroad,
but can one say that anything here is
a 'spctf However, there are always
your automobiles."
The visitor then went on to say that
present-day activities Justified the
old saying that for every condition
there was a counteracting Influence
and that the influence which cancels
distance in thin country Is the wonder
ful modes of travel.
"Of all these modes the motor-car
eon-.mnnds the greatest admiration,
and since I have made a study of tires
I feel that the automobile owes much
of Us efficiency to Firestone tires."

When President H. S. Firestone, of
the Firestone Tire & Kubber Company,
was asked concerning the new addi
tions to the big plant at Akron. O.,
recently, he replied: "Our growth, no
doubt, seems remarkable, but more than
to any other force our rigid Insistence
on quality first in everything con
nected with the manufacture of our
ttres is responsible for our vast vol
ume of business.
"We make "the very best tire we
know how. The best brains, the finest
materials, the most painstaking efforts
and the utmost care are used In pro
ducing Flrestones. The one Idea of
quality Is uppermost both In the fac
tory and In the many places that offer
