C, cited facts and figures drawn from the company's ex perience under price control reg ulations, and pointed out the need for changes which would make for im Droved operation of th" OPA.

Kl TESTS LIKI THIS ONE , ,i made in the test-laboratory of the huge'1 factory that builds Wards Tires, prove Riversides' hither quality. Pictured here is the "rupture-resistance" test Laboratory and road tests, alike, prove that River sides are now even stronger than pre-war first-quality Riversides! Every ply is stronger, because each cord is stronger to begin with; then chemically strengthened to sray stronger longer! But that only hall-explains Riversides' greater strength! The cords are next immersed in a "bonding" solution that "welds" them together! In the final operation, the cords are cushioned between two layers of rubber. The result: a STRONGER ply, which is further strengthened when it is cemented to other plies of similar-strength to make a safe "tire-body." In Riversides, every precaution is taken to provide pro tection against separation and blowouts! that's why wi say MORE MILES-OF-SAFETY on "RIVERSIDES" E T WASHINGTON, June 11 Ml Tho OPA announced today whut It described tin on oxperlnu'iitnl program to make moro meat avnllablo to certain groups n spnrscly populated areas In Cali fornia, Washington, Oregon ond Nevada.
