SUBSTITUTES FOR AIR TIRES.
Efforts to Replace the Pneumatic
Tube.

Efforts to Replace the Pneumatic
Tube.
Inventors may come and invent
ors may CO." says the Motor World,
but the penumatic tire goes on for
ever, seems to represent In a nutshell
the status OF the present universally
used type of tire and of the horde OF
inventors who are vainly trying TO
displace II with something that shall
possess all of it's advantages, but lack
its defects. While the history OF
great inventions clearly shows that
it is never safe to deride a device or
its inventor regardless Of how bizarre
or far-fetched his idea may appear at
first sight, there would seem TO be
little of permanent value in the mass
of spring devices that are. now APP
pearing so constantly as to run a
close second TO the non-refillable bot
tie and the rotary engine in the pat
ent records.
People, great and small, learned
and otherwise, ridiculed the tele-
graph and the telephone TO a far
greater extent than is the lot OF the
airship of to-day, and not alone the
average tire user, but the tire maker
without exception, regards with
amused contempt the thousand and
one attempts to utilize wierd and
freakish combinations Of springs and
rubber TO obtain the degree of re-
siliency that experience thus far has
demonstrated is only possible with
rubber and canvas-confined air.
There are two fundamental principles
upon which rest the value of the
pneumatic tire-the extreme elastic
ity of compressed air, in which re-
spect 1t is equalled by no other
known substance, and the fact that
this indispensable quality Is applied
directly at the place where it is most
required-the point of shock.
Many Of the devices that have
come and gone in the past year or
two have had incorporated in their
makeup one or the other OF these
principles. Many have placed the
springs about the rim in the attempt
to concentrate the desired effect
iuOoL dINtNt OlHtI nave tul-
ployed rubber confined air about the
hub and yet others have virtually
placed a pneumatic tube beneath a
solid rubber tire, only altering the
construction of the wheel itself to
the extent necessitated by the
changed form OF rim. With the ex-
ception of the last, which it really
form OF pneumatic tire, neither OF
the most numerous classes have en-
bodied both Of these sine Qua non,
without which the results now af-
forded by the pneumatic tire are i'm
possible.
Whether a device that will do so
effectively will ever materialize, or
whether one CT the army OF genluses
that Is laboring to this end will suc-
ceed in discovering some totally new
method CT achieving this much de-
sired result is a subject upon which il
is not easy TO predict. One thing is
certain, and that is that no great
amount of progress has been forth
coming as yet, and that little or none
is TO be expected from further ad-
herence 20 the ideas that have been
proven to be fallicies time and again.
Ii would doubtless be better for those
most interested II the slate could be
wiped clean and new start made"
