the United States.
He bases his figures on the fact that
there are 10000 automobiles in use in the

tires. according to the estimate OF auto
mobile tire manufacturers. This means
the total output Of the entire country will
be 100000 tires. Figuring the average

Stuart CoonIey. Of Chicago.

three years ago, down on the south
plains Of Texas, just below the Pan

an automobile line between our town
