DIAMOND MAKES TIRE
OF VITALIZED RUBBER

minds-the best brains that money
could procure.
These men were set to work with
but one idea-to produce a chemical
compound which, when mixed with pure
live rubber, would make tire of flint
like hardness-tough enough to with
stand the terrific grind of the worst
roads-yet have all the elastic resil-
iency of tire made entirely of pure,
soft, bounding rubber.
For months and months these wiz
ard Edisons of the tire industry as we
sometimes refer to them, mixed and
tested-discarded old formulas and
worked out new ones.
"At last. when the chemists announc-
ed that they had found what they were
searching for. we started to build test
tires of the new compound. to give it a
practical test. I shall never forget
those first tests. They were successful
far beyond our greatest hopes. Our
chemists had found the exact COM
But the work did not stop there
We spent years-as we'll as thousands
of dollars-testing tires built according
to the new formua-with the new
toughening compound mixed with pure
live rubber. Neither did the chemists
quit-they went right on with even
greater enthusiasm improving their
wonderful discovery.
These are the bare facts of the dis
covery of vitalized rubber. 1t was not
hap-and- chance nor an accident-it
was the result OF cold, analytical bust
ness judgment-not an effort to re-
duce the cost of building tire, but tc

| Thompson. TT seems almost impossi-
BILE that there could be better tire
than the Diamond Vitalized Rubber tire
but we have enough confidence in oul
men to believe that If something better
can be found they will find 1t. 1t may
; be possible that some day, through the
further efforts Of our corps Of expert
chemists, the motorist will be fortu-

OAKLAND SUCCESS is

OF GEORGE DANIELS

George Z. Daniels, vice president and
general manager Of the Oakland Com
pany is type of man Emerson had in
mind. He is the modern product of
the training that comes from the col
lege campus, the football field and the
post graduate course in the university
of hard knocks. He has played tackle,
put the 16-pound shot, and now con-
tents himself with golf and work on his
farm Mr.. Daniels is a fine specimen
of the self-reliant, fearless, gritty and
husky young American upon whom the
country is today building it's industries
and magic progress.
George E. Daniels and the coterie of
men he has selected for important po-
sitions in the factory are responsible
for the pace set The department heads
and factory men are loyal to him, ana
he has the wonderful faculty of secur-
ing the maximum work from the men
under him. He radiates good will and
friendship, encourages every employee
at every opportunity, and when Gliding
is necessary, it is done in such diplo-
matte way that the sting does not last

CROSS-STATE ROADS
IN NEED OF REPAIR,
SAYS ATLANTA MAN

SAVANNAH, GA, Feb. 15.-Between
Savannah and Atlanta there are many
stretches of bad road. according to w.
c. Mahoney. formerly of Savannah. who
has just completed a trip through in a
Cartercar. He is manager of the At
lanta branch of the company that han
dies the CartercaT.
In the car with Mahoney was Dan
Davies, of Atlanta, Southern manager
of the Motor Truck Company. Upon
reaching Chatham county roads, Ma
honey was chagrined to find the road
so bad he could hardly get through.
The condition was aggravated by the
fact that on the way down, when they
struck heavy going, Mahoney would
console his companion with an account
of the magnificent roads they would
find after they had crossed the Ogee-
chez.
And much to my disgust. the worst
road of the trip was encountered in
Chatham county," said Mahoney. THE
roads of Eff1ngham are also in bad con-
dition right up to the Chatham county
line. The road on this side of the line,
for two miles, is in most deplorable
condition.
From Atlanta to Covington the trav-
elers found splendid highways From
Covington to Madison the roads were
only fair being dry enough, but very
rough. From Madison to Milledgeville,
the roads were a veritable slough The
axle Of the car dragged in the mud
nearly all the way.

New York. March 25.-CSpeciaD-For-
eign markets again reflected the lack OF
free offering in the south and an unfav-
orable weather map. After slight i'm
provement on the opening the usual local
selling carried prices off the market be-
ing duh at slightly lower basis. The
indications from the weather bureau are
for more bad weather in the south which
will further delay planting.
Little attention Is paid to this condi-
ton as the pessimism in Wall street is
still the dominant factor. However, 1t is
noticeable that large spot interests and
Europe are buying the fall months on re-
cessions.
No weakness Is reported In the spot

ANOTHER ADVANCE

Operators on the Long Side
Begin to Pluck Up
Courage

New York March 25.-operators on

another advance was achieved. After
weeks of dropping prices and bearish
sentiment, with only an occasional fit
full rally, 1t was something of nov
city to have rising market for two
days in succession with every appear
ance of an improvement in feeling.
The Improvement was ascribed pri-
marily to the better outlook abroad. a
feature encouraging to the traders on
the long side of the market was to
be found in evidences of absorptions
of standard stocks. commission house
business. while still comparatively
small has shown some increase during
the last two days. Bear traders, who
have been operating with free hand,
were less sure of their ground.
Some of the specialties which have
been weak recently made large gains.

from London. Bonds shared-in the i'm

CLOSE BARELY
STEADY IN COTTON
Market Eases Off After
Slightly Higher Opening,
Declining 2 to 7 Points

New York, March 25.-After a slightly
off under March liquidation and increased
old crop offerings with the close barely
steady al net decline of to points.
The opening was steady at a net ad-
vance of 1 to points in response to
higher Liverpool cables than expected and
unfavorable weather reports from the
south 1T soon developed, however, that
there was considerable March for sale,
and an idea that strong bull interests
might be abandoning their position, en-
couraged some local pressure against old
crop months as we'll as scattering liquid
alton. A good deal of the March selling
was against purchase of May, but Wall
street shorts absorbed the March readily
enough to maintain it's premium and after
having shown net loss of from to
points the old crop rallied to within a
point or two of last nights closing fig
ures on covering. Later offerings again
increased although there was no apparent
change in the news, and closing prices
were at the lowest of the day.
New crop positions were relatively quiet
and steady owing to prospects for con-
tinued rains in the, belt and further re-
ports of delayed farm work. Liverpool
was evidently more impressed by the bad
weather than New York, new crop deliv-
cries there being both relatively steady
and relatively active.
1t was estimated that about 25,oo0 to
10000 bales of March were sold during
the day, but there was no talk of ma
terislly increasing shipments here from
the south for contract delivery and some
traders said that the operations in the
near positions reflected a disposition to
even up commitments before the end
of the week rather than have
any change in the spot situa-
ton. Reports from Vicksburg said
that complaints of too much rain were
becoming general and there We're mes
sages from some sections of the eastern
belt claiming that farm work had been
seriously interfered with. Owing to the
poor wire service, however, southern
news was restricted, and aside from the
trade in March, business was generally
quiet.

over the corresponding week of last
year and decrease OF 1,80S,000 bush

with a decrease of 1,32700O bushels a

Primary receipts also gave support
to bear sentiment as they were 549,-

a year ago. Seaboard clearances of
wheat and flour equalled $4,000 BUSH
els. Corn showed weakness through
the entire day, taking downward
turn Immediately after a fairly strong
opening. The few inquiries from the
east asked for bids on resale, eastern
buyers apparently being overloaded.
Oats seemed without buying support.
Provisions were weak. Pork was par
ticularly affected, indicating that the

eliminated.
