Experience has taught him that even tires of the The cor owner whojseeks United States standards in tubes is well paid in more mileage for his tires. V. S.

One of the reasons the biggest reason why the United States Rubber Company began its en larged production of cord tires was because it realized that cord tires could be made to deliver more miles not only on the average but all the time. This company has spent more money than any other tire con cern onarth in making its Cord Tires uniform. And by iiniformity is meant not taking the exceptional tire and trying to find out what made it exceptional, but building every tire you build to the highest standards of quality. , 1 on el Status - LHIUJ.U.IH 0 oc -: " ft ' Tire Division Branch, 111-115 North Sixth Street : it
