NO RIM CUT TIRE As
standard FOR AUTO
That or Device Resembling
Ii Used by Most OF Car
Manufacturers

"Figures. show that 500 of all car
manufacturers in this country, with
the exception of those using the small
er sized wheels. have now edopted the
No-Rim-Cut tire or devices resembling
it. as standard equipment for their
automobiles. declares l.. G. Rock
hill. manager Automobile Tire Depart
ment the Goodyear Tire & Rubber
Company.
In view of this revolution in tire
dom. a little tire history may be in
teresting at this time, for the develop
ment OF tires has kept pace with the
development of the cars themselves.
In the DAYS of the 'one-lungers,' auto
tires we're simply larger and heavier
hicvcle tires. There was no other
idea than this for tire makers to fol-
low-and follow it they did.
Single tube tires for cars we're
trjed-for single tube tires for BIZ
cycles had been very popular. They
were easy to repair-on bicycles
but were so much heavier for auto
mobiles that repairs were practically
impossible.
80 tire makers turned next to
the clincher-a type so popular for
bicycle tires where inner tubes were
desired. And after a few years
clincher tires were a reasonable sue
cess-except that they rim cut, be-
cause Of the sharp inner curve Of the
clincher rim.
In 1905 the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Company demonstrated the
feasibility of the detachable rim, in
troduced the No-Rim-Cut tire-the
first tire that got away successfully
from the clircher type-and the Ievo-
luton began. The Goodyear NO-Rim-
Cut tire did away with the necessity
for the clncher rim, provided a
straight side-yall to the tire and an
easily out-curving rim that supported
rather than destroyed, and il Is not
surprising that any number OF tires
resembling more or less the pioneer
No-Rim-Cut have appeared.
Goodyear No-Rim-Cuts ended rim
cutting. yet remained firmly and safe
" on the wheels. This was accom-
plished by another Goodyear special
the strands of braided piano wines
built into the bead, to hold 1t i'm
movably TO the rim. The latest add
tion to convenience and practicabil
ity is the Goodyear detachable rim
which permits the removal Of tir'
in one operation. So it is certain tina
the conquest of the No-Rim-Cut tir
will go on, for obviously. once tn
problem Of retaining the tire on tn
rim is solved, and its speedy and cas-
removal provided for the clinche
feature is rendered unnecessary.

E. A. BARTHEL MANAGER
FOR KING MOTOR COMPANY

An announcement that comes as a
surprise to the motoring public of
Detroit is the election. last week of
Theodore e. A. Barthel. to the Offices
of vice-president and general man
ager Of the King Motor Car Company.
to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of f. A. Vollbrecht.
The resignation of Mr.. Vollbrecht

meeting of the directors of the com
pany. in New York City.
1t is understood that Mr. Vollbrecht,
who. as former head of the King
Motor Company's management, con-
tributed much to its success during
the past year. intends to enter the
manufacturing business.
Mr.. Barthel is we'll known i'm De-
troit manufacturing and financial
circles. He has been identified with
the automobile industry since its in
fancy In conjunction with his
brother. o. e. Barthel, he construct

car became the germ which later de-
veloped into one Of the largest auto

one of the best known lines of motor
cars in the country.

for this bill, not because l like it. not
because in my judgment It should be-
come a law" What other possible
reason could representative OF the
people have for voting for a measure
other than the fact that he liked It:
it met with his approval. or In his
judgment 1t was to the benefit of the
people? What sinister power has been
erected and sustained under the dome
of the capitol which can take possess
sion of the conscience and the Judg-
ment Of representative and compel
him to vote against an unfavorabIe
measure. measure which he believes
to be detrimental to his own constitu-
ency, and IL indeed such power does
exist and controls legislation In Wash
ington, what has become of the repre-
sentative government: How will you
check upon your representatives under
such a system of legislation? Let me
read further; he says II deem 1t my
duty nevertheless to embody in the
permanent record of the country for
the benefit of my constituency and the
people at large my serious objections
to this BILL" and then he proceeds to
do SO. Just what benefit his constitu-
ency would derive from knowing how
bad the bill was which was passed by
his vote Is one of the mysteries OF
legislation. Then he concludes by say
ing: II want to say to the committee
and the country that when / vote for
this bill 1t will be a sacrifice / make
forSthe Democratic party. because this
bill in many respects fails to meet my
conception of the fundamental princi-
Piles of good government, and In my
judgment is dangerous to the country"

instance. That is not an isolated case.
That is read to you to show the sys-
tenn and the remarkable attitude our
President took when he stated
at Shadow Lawn that they had kept

pie.
PEOPLES INTERESTS
DISREGARDED.
Let me call your attention to an
other case. The Underwood bill is a

asked IT not for myself but for others.
and that privilege was denied me-.
FAR-REACHING EVIL.
Now, my friends, l call attention 70
that not alone because 1t Is contra
1iction to the platform. but call at
tention to II because 1t Is distinctly
an evil OF the most far-reaching con-
sequences to the American people,
Take for instance, as an illustration,
the Underwood bill again.
Twenty nine Senators of the
Senate of the United States under
this system can frame law to
be put through the Congress OF
the United States, or through the
Senate OF the United States.
Fifty-six members constitute the
majority side of the chamber Fifty
six 20 into caucus, twenty-nine may be
in favor of the bill and the twenty
nine can bind the others by resolution,
and thereafter come out in the open
Senate with the bill framed and COM
pei the fifty-six to vote in favor OF IL
and pass 1t through the Senate. So 1t
is reduced to that proposition where
twenty-nine men can, where twenty
nine men have framed important legis-
lation and put 1t through the Senate
of the United States.
Mr.. Hughes has referred to the fact
that all the chairmen of these differ-
emit committees are from the South.
and he is charged with raising sec
tional question. Not at all. We are
simply reciting a fact--a fact If there
is an sectionalism, we didn't put 1t
there. 1t is in the record, but that Is
not the worst of it--not only are they
in possession of the chairmanships, to
which they might have legitimate
claim under the rule of seniority, but
the sixteen southern states can abso-
lutely control legislation in the Senate
of the United States under that system.
Look at the Underwood bill amend
ment, / say. There is not a product
from the agricultural fields of the
South which is affected by the tariff at
all which has not sufficient duty TO
protect it. Every product from the
southern fields that the tariff could in
