Southern Highway, which will be an
other allyear route and on that many

government aid, because il is southern
and has the backing of the Democrats
in congress.
There are two more highway propo-

WHOLE PLANT WORKS
ON SUPPLY PARTS
StudebEkers Announce Innovation for
Benefit OF Owners Of Old Cars
Ideal Service System.

By placing at the disposal Of its
service department an entire plant,
completely outfitted with machinery
and able to turn out on short notice
parts for every model of its cars now
in the hands Of the public. the Stude-
baker corporation has taken an ad-
vanced step toward the ideal relation
snip between manufacturer and the
owners OF his cars
There are now considerably more
than 100000 Studebaker cars in the
hands of owners" asserts general
manager Clarence II. Booth so far
as we know. all these cars are in daily
service, despite the fact that many OF
the earliest models have been driven
upwards of 10000 miles.
NO mechanical device will endure
casional requirements. These must. if
satisfactory, be supplied by the parent
factory. Up to date we have furn-
ished parts from this source. though
often the process confused to some ex-
tent, our scheme of production. BY
setting apart one factory for this pur
pose, our service arrangements will be
practically ideal and our regular man
ufacturing system uninterrupted.
The plant purchased by the Stude-
bakers is at Pontiac and was formerly
known as the Vulcan Gear works. La
ter, in an enlarged form. it was used
as the main building OF an automobile
company which recently went into the
hands OF q receiver.
Aside from ensuring a permanent
supply Of parts for all Studebaker
be its ability to turn out for each
dealer a stock of parts fitted to the
needs Of his territory, thus permitting
MIN to install immediate repairs.

EFFECTS OF RIDING
TIRES TOO SOFT

When the tires are ridden soft there
IS too much action in the side wall, or
hinge, which must eventually result in
the same injury to the fabric that Oc-

This excessive heating softens the

Because of many statements in the
