PUT CAR ON SCALES BEFORE BUYING TIRE "Consult the scales before you buy that new set of tires for your passenger car." advises I A. Monton, Firestone representative. Wo nnints to recent action by the Society of Automotive Engineers In re vising maximum carrying weights for tires of various sizes ana sa muw his opinion, the tiro buyer will save monev and trouble by being sure his tires are not undersized. Here is the proper metnoa oi ue termtning the weight each tire should bear, according to Mr. Menton. "Run the front hair or me car uo platform scales, then tno rear The weight carried by each tire will be half the respective amounts regis tered. t . The approach to the scales snouiu bo level and if reasonable care Is cx- rcised. the total of the two operas.. will ibe within twenty or iniriy pou. ...... of the weight of the car when all of it Is upon the scales."

IMPROVEMENT IN FIELD 1 Thero is every indication of ateady improvement in conditions in the field of automotive manufacturing. Trans portation conditions have Improved. Reduced production brought about by conditions of the past has placed the parts makers in a position where they have been compelled once more to go out after business. In the past It has been but necea rary for them to sit back and ward off the manufacturers. Conditions as they have been benefited the Industry as discharges made of a proportion of the workmen In many plants have re sulted Invariably In an increase of pro duction. In spite of the reduced forcer). Laving off of men at the factories has also driven many men back to the railroads who had taken- factory posl lions during the strike. In fact. It Is reported that factories have steadily wifded out these men experienced In lallroad work and former milroad workers who try came strikers, thus CnrpP!!l; "n. o r'"-n to tfie'r THEFJSki RUBBCI2 CCi. 7T-w --itnCT'TjKt fT..i .l.i i I.I .1 jml WALLACE BROTHERS Lower Floor Elks Bldg. positions.
