"Waterbound macadam roads, which
for practically a century have been ade-
quite for the traffic have now under the
new conditions become obsolete. and
their further construction means serl-

Here are a few amazing facts which

Here are a few amazing facts which
every tire user should know.
Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tires used TO cost
one-ifth more than other standard tires. And
yet they gained the topmost place in Tiredom.
Three things caused this extra price.
In the base of each tire we vulcanize six
fiat bands Of 126 braided wires. 1t is thus
that we make a hookless tire - tire that
can't be rim-cut.
Then every No-Rim-Cut gets the OMAR
Cure" 1t is inal-vulcanized on cir bags. This
is done to save blow-outs. 1t adds to our
tire cost 81 500 per day.
Then we use in each tread base a patent
"rivet' fabric. eve paid $50, 900 for this fea-
ture to prevent tread separation.
Not one of these costly features are used
in any other make of tire.
