TIRE ADJUSTERS
ARE DIPLOMAT T|C

One Of the most difficult positions to
hold in the automobile industry is that
of an adiuster, whether that position is
with a big motor car factory or with
some accessory manufacturing plant.
The troubles that this much-a bused in
dividual meets and overcomes are le-
giop.
''In the tire factories the adjuster is
very important parsonage, for on his
Judgment depends the saving of much
time and trouble to both customers and
to the tire manufacturers, remarked
w. s. Theobold, manager of the Salt
Lake City service branch of the United
States Rubber company Of California.
"In word, the tire adluster is the
man who, standing between the buyer
and seller, sees that as far as it is in
his power. exact justice is meted out
on all disputed points that arise In
business that necessarily covers so
large d field.
TAnd yet this same adluster is about
the most human being connected with
the business and is often misunderstood
by motor car owners. In the first
place, your adjuster must necessarily
be an expert on his subject, as hit-and
miss decisions would do irreparable in
jury TO both the public and The tire
concern.
"An out.and-out defect presents it
self to the adjuster at once, but it is
in the claimed mileage attained that the
play of wits takes place. Considering
the great number Of motor cars In use,
it is astonishing how many owners give
an accurate account of their tire mile
age, and what is more. IN the greatest
percentage of cases, the adjuster's esti-
mate figures up with those recorded on
the specdometers.
"As rule, the adiuster leans to-
ward the consumer, His business is to
keep the latter satisfied and. he well
knows that his company is not looking
to get the best of it, but to retain the
good will Of the customer

EASTERN SHOWS

Local Auto Dealers Visiting
Different Exhibits Report
Business Satisfactory.

Sam Sharman of the Sharman Auto
mobile company and Frank Botterill OF
the Botterill Automobile company arc
both in the east. attending the autono
bile shows, with view to securing new
ideas to put in force at the Salt Lake
show, which begins in Salt Lake on
February H. Both gentlemen arc mem
bers of the local show committee and
it is expected they viii return home
with many up-to-date ideas in conduct
ing automobile shows. OF the eastern
shows, Mr.. Botterill writes as follows
First OF all, the attendance has
been greater than in past years,
and the actual business done during
the show is very satisfactory. AT
the Detroit show l found that every
department store, hotels and even
barber shops were displaying auto
mobile tires, coats, supplies. etc,
bearing cards advertising the show.
In fact, everyone was boosting the
show along, The shows that we
have in Salt Lake, although of
course, not as large as the eastern
ones, are, from the standpoint or
decorations and attractions, the
equal of any Of the shows | have
seen here. The prospective pur-
chaser of an automobile or anyone
interested in the many newer ideas
of cars have better opportunity TO
see and examine them at our show
than they will here,
The automobile show, l find
everywhere, brings more profit into
city than any other event. In
Chicago the large hotels have been
reserving rooms for the past ninety
days and today Sunday you will
find plenty of trouble in securing
accommodations at flrst-class ho.
tells in this city. unless you have
made advance reservation. | am
telling you this so you will under
stand the great interest that is
taken, and without doubt, with the
publicity we are giving to our local
show, and with the special railroad
rates, more people viii visit our
town during the show than any
event we have had in our city dur.
ing the past year. Our hotels,
newspapers, etc, should boost all
thew can, as in the year of 1914 the
motor car is without question the
most interesting and attractive sub
ject IN America.
Just word regarding the cars
There is nothing particularly new,
excepting the wonderful increase
and general adoption of six-cyL
inder motorists per cent Of the
cars shown in all the eastern shows
have six-oyEnder motors, and In
cars selling for $500 and over
nearly 70 per cent of 1914 cars
a.
The general opinion throughout
the east is that Salt Lake City is
the best city in the entire west
and everyone has good word to
say for us, and from my observa~
tions our city looks just as good as
any Of them and a good deal better
than most

M|DW|NTER TRIP

To Cross the American continent in
a closed body motor car is an unusual
feat, though no longer unique, since

emf problem, yet is one recently solved
by tourist.
The feat loses much of its motoring
significance through the fact that the
automobile rode in box car and car
ried a nameless knight of the road.
Nevertheless, it possesses many features
of an unusual nature.
Late in December this resourceful
hobo must have passed the Studebaker
loading platform in Detroit. He doubt
less marveled at the many freight cars
being loaded and noted that each car
carried on its door the name of the city
which was to be its destination. The
variety from which he chose contained
about every trading center Of moment
in the country, but be must have passed
along until he reached a car tagged
