Furnas, local Good year dealer. "Men with keen eyes look for the tiniest flaw," says Mr. Furnaa "and no tire la permitted to leave the factory unless It la perfect In every detail. "An Interesting example of the type of man who Inspects the new 'Q-V tires, la Merle laraelton. of Akron, Ohio. In a recent rifle match of na tional lute rent, conducted In Akron, Israclson's keen eyes and ateady nerves won for him the title of small bore champion; the Litchfield trophy, the Ooodyear trophy, three medals and a place on two International teams. 'Naturally,' says Mr. Charlls Fur nas, "all G-S Inspectora are not ex pert riflemen, but every one of there is selected for the excellency of his vision and mental alertness. They must not permit any accidental flaw In the production to escape them. ' "Many of the small imperfections for which tires art rejected by the Inspectors would never be detected by an untrained observer. But the rigid policy of Inspection of the Goodyear factories makes It unnecessary for the consumer to sort over a large group of tires In order to find a perfect product. "On the contrary, the Imperfect tlr Is never permitted to reach the deal er's establishment. If the defect la detectable by human Ingenuity,' Mr. Furnas says.
