RECORD DEMAND FOR
AUTOS IN February

February was another wonderful
month in the motor car industry and
the demand for automobiles continued
unabated The prediction OF last De-
cember that there would be a large
shortage of cars at the opening of
the usual spring rush was verified as
practically all the big companies were
unable to supply the February de-
mand. and all have big orders for inn
mediate shipment on their books.
Production reached the maximum
for the winter months In most VI the
factories. although the parts and ma
terlai market is still a serious fac
tor. The greatest obstacle for Feb
ruary IN the Detroit situation was the
shortage of freight cars which was
even worse than during the month
of January. It was impossible 20 Sc
cure adequate number OF regulation
automobile box cars and practically
every producing company had to re-
sort 10 the use of fiat cars, and even
coal cars became popular for automo-

MANY SOLID Tires
CHANGE TO GOODRICH

The B. F. Goodrich Company has
finished checking its records of tires
of other makes. which were replaced
during 1915. by Goodrich Wireless
Truck Tires, and announces that
there were $4,000 such change overs.
In 1914 there were 1O.725, in 1913,
6,351, and in 1912, 1851 tires of other
makes were thus replaced
This is interesting information,
says an Official Of the B. F. Goodrich
Co, "and shows the growth of popu-
larity Of our tires. Il is, OF course
understood that a great many thou
sands of tires were sold to users Of
new trucks. The figures above rep
resent simply the number of tires OF
other makes. which apparently did
not satisfy their purchasers, when
compared with the mileage that Good
rich tires were giving"
