Goodyear Prices
t is Folly Today to Paw More

There exists now a new, compelling
reason for buying Goodyear tires 1t re-
suits from War conditions
These leading tires-built of extra fine
rubber, IN the same way as always-are
selling today at June prices.
You will find today very wide difference
between most tire prices and Goodyears.
Due to Quick Action
Early in August-when war began-the
worlds rubber markets seemed closed to US
Rubber prices doubled almost over night.
Men could see no way to pay for rubber
abroad, and no way to bring it in. We, like
others-in that panic-were forced to higher
prices, But we have since gone back to prices
we charged before the war, and this is how
we did it:
We had men in London and Singapore when
the war broke out The larger part of the
worlds rubber supply comes through there.
We cabled them to buy up the pick of the rub
Der. They bought-before the advance, $780,
600 pounds of the finest rubber there.
Nearly all this is now on the way to US
And it means practically all Of the extra-grade
rubber obtainable abroad
Today we have our own men in Colombo,
Singapore and Para. Those are the worlds
chief sources of rubber So we are pretty well
assured of a constant supply, and our pick of
the best that's produced.
We were first on the ground. We were quick

Tires at
Before-War Prices

ABOUT the onIy crude rubber available now
for many makers is inferior. In ordinary times
the best tire makers refuse it. Much Of it had
been rejected. But that 'toff rubber" now sells
for much more than we paid for the best.
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in advance Of
Goodyears. And many tire makers, short of
supplies, viii be forced to use seeond-grade

as Head of Staff. =:

Amsterdam, Dec. 14.-That General
Won Moltke's removal as chief of the
German general staff in favor of Cen
eral Won Falkenhayn was due to a diff
ference of opinion with the kaiser,
was the story printed today by the
Handelsblad. 1t was stated that the
kaiser insisted on the German army
being driven toward Calais and that
General Won Moltke stood out for a
vigorous offensive on Verdun. Won
Falkenhayn. having been the German
general staff commander who made
the plans for the Calais movement,
wa naturally selected as Won Moltke's
successor.
The Handelsblad declares that only
General Won Hindenberg, in command
OF the German forces in the east, ia
strong enough to stand against the
kaiser's war plans.
German newspapers which have just
been received here comment on the
change in the leadership Of the Ger
man military forces. They state that
