tires.were used in the great speed
way event, the first being last year
....... when Peter De Paolo on Firestone
full-size . gum-dipped balloons made
a new world’s record at an average
speed of 101.13 miles per hour.
Smaller motors of 91 H cubic inch
displacement, compared to 122 cubic
inches ii» 1925, combined with rainy
weather and a slippery track, slowed
up the t»me of the 1926 winner,
Frank lAckhart, who won this year's
race at 05.88 miles per hour.
This year’s gruelling battle of
tires waj called at the end of 402 VI
miles because of the downpour of
rain.
Lockhart, who captured the
grand prize, drove the full distance
without a single tire change and was
all set to go the entire 500 miles on
the same set of tires.
It is a noteworthy fact, too, that
the 1926 Indianapolis race was the
ninth on the Hoosier speedway in
which Firestone gum-dipped tires
carried the winners tlo victory.
The terrific battle of tires bring}
out the effectiveness of gum-dipping
the exclusive process employed by
the Firestone company, which builds
extra strength and endurance into
the cord fabric by impregnating and
saturating every fiber of every cord
with rubber.

POWER PROJECTS COME HIGH
Watts What, the publcation of
the Portland Electric Power Co.,
calls attention to Seattle’s sad ex
perience with the Skagit river pro
ject in a recent issue.
Oregon is
advised not to attempt state develop
ment of power by means of bond
issues: Watts Watt says:
When Seattle undertook to devel
op its “famous” Skagit river hydro
electric power project, the munici
pal ownership engineers said
would cost $4,800,000.
When Seattle went ahead
spent the $4,800,000 without get
ting anywhere near through with
their municipal ownership job.
Now, they have poured consider
ably
over $11,000,000 into the pro
'
ject, and the engineers find it will
1 take around $5,000,000 or $6,000,-
000 more before the project is final
ly completed.
We wonder what will be the ex
,
perience
of the Oregon public owner
,
ship
crowd if they get away with
' their comprehensive plan for state
wide hydro-electric
development.
