SUGGESTIVE HINTS TO I’O IIT R Y KAISERS Gum* Dipped Cords G aining N e w Fam e fo r Service 194% Sales Increase in Last S ix M onths Shows T re n d T o w a rd Firestone The public has emphatically spoken. The popu lar preference in all territories is unmistakably the Firestone Gum-Dipped Cord. A standard of service has been set by these fa mous tires without parallel in the past. I t has brought a sales increase of 194% for the past six months over the same period of a year ago—the greatest gain in all Firestone history. The Firestone Gum-Dipped Cord is the mighty achievement which has enabled Firestone to break the tremendous record of past Firestone success. The tire buying public has been aroused to the results in economical mileage of the Firestone proce-s of double gum-dipping. The buying swing toward Firestone shows how it has advanced the public's standard of tire value. Ask owners about Firestone performance on their cars Note the big taxicab fleets Firestone equipped. Watch the new c a n you see—just from the fac- tones; Firestone Gum-Dipped Cords are seen every- where in fast increasing numbers. Get the maximum extra mileage th at only the Firestone name assures you. Only by insisting co this name can you be sure of getting the genuine gum-dipped construction.
