TIRES GREATEST FACTOR

"F'ew men have ever stopped to think
that ultimately the tire business Will
be the big end of the automobile indus
try says Frank H. Gafford Jr., one OF
the local statesmen of the Goodyear Tire
and Rubber company. There are now
perhaps 100000 cars in use in the
United States. This year possibly 400,-
600 new cars will be in use. discount
ing this number by those which go out
of service
Gradually the ratio between the
number of cars in use and the number
sof cars being sold. is increasing. Ulti-
mately the opportunity for the sale of
new cars will be much smaller than
the opportunity for sale of service in
connection with the cars in use. After
a while, the big end of the automobile
industry will be the sale of tires and
ether parts necessary to keep the car
running.
AS the tire is the most important ac-
cessory of the car, and the accessory
which needs to be renewed most frc-
qrently, it follows that the tire bust
