IMPROVEMENT IN TIRES
is MOST IMPORTANT
Tine manufacturers Meet Every De-
nnnd Made by Automobile
Manufacturers.

While motor-car manufacturers are
coming in for such n large share OF
public appreciation for the rapid prog
ress made in automobile construction,
the part which tire manufacturers have
played in this wonderful advance de-
serves equal praise.
Every demand made by tho car man.
ufacturcr has been me, by tho tire
manufactures. improvements in tires
have not been as spectacular nor as
widely heralded as those in automo-
bileS, but they have been equally i'm
portant and lasting Tire experts are
constantly experimenting to discover
better tire construction. and devise
more economical methods of produce
ton.
II Is interesting to note that tho
Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company,
Akron Ohio. maintains one of the most
highly organized experimental depart
ments to he found in the rubber in
dustry. Endless experimentation is
constantly being conducted In the
Goodyear laboratories. involving every
possible material and condition that
may enter into tire manufacture. And
upon the attainment of one Goodyear
ideal in tire building, research is inn
mcdiatel" launched TO eclipse ito get
as near the perfect tire as human in
Eenuity will permit.
An evidence OF Goodycar's determi-
nation ia reach this goal is shown In
the expenditure of over 100000 this
year In improvements in Goodyear tires.
SO that motorists may have less tire
trouble. longer tire life and lower tire
cost. This sum has been put back into
the Goodyear product in tho shape OF
cHtra material and workmanship.
The use of the Goodyear ION air"
cure alone. costs $500. 600 a year. and
could he eliminated by going back to
tho old method Of curing. but the risk
OF hlowouts from wrnlilcd or buckled
| fabric-which can't he scen--would he
| greatly increased.
There are still thousands who think
| one tire is much like another. To the
| casual observer. automobile tires look
| and perform much as they did in the
/ early days Of tho automobile But the
| truth is that tires have been improving
| as greater demands have been made
| upon them.
| That Goodyear expects tire advance
mcnt to parallel ear Improvement is
indicated by tho millions spent over
/ and above ordinary tire standards.

GERMANS REJOICE

PEACE SITUATION
Crowds Gather in Berlin
Streets to Hear News of
President Wilson's Pro

BY CARL w. AckERMAN,

y
Berlin, Dec. 23.-America's note walk
ing peace is received by Germany as a
welcome Christmas gift. Rejoicing at
tended publication of the news
throughout the empire-but it was a
rejoicing mixed just a little with pes
simism as to any result. The note
reached the German public Friday at
noon. In Munich that day l saw its
reception. The Neuestenachrichten
placarded the city, stores and public
buildings with the brief announcement:
Wilson has asked all the powers to
state their peace conditions"
Crowds gathered everywhere in the
Munich streets. The first impression
they gained was that the news was
too good to be true" The public was
taken aback by the curtness of Lloyd
Georges answer to Germany's peace
note and the American note was bolt
out of the blue. Friday afternoon ] was
on a long. crowded train en- route to
Frankfort with officers. soldiers and
civilians speeding toward home for a
Christmas holiday. They read the
news eagerly with pure joy in their
hearts. But they weren't-outwardly at
least-overly optimistic, because a por-
ton Of Germany is far from sympA-
thetic with America. Everywhere.
however, satisfaction was expressed
that Germany took the initiative in
peace efforts.
Berlin and other newspaper editorials
aptly expressed this doubt as to Presi-
dent Wilson's success in elicitng a
statement from the entente nations
comprising their peace terms. They
united in applauding President Will
sons move.
President Wilson'S note is an aid to
peace" declared the F'rankfurter lei
tung, provided the entente is ready
to discuss matters. President Wilson
considers it useful to see If both sides
are close enough to make final peace.
If only an exchanging of opinions be-
gins, peace may be possible, because
both sides in many ways seek the same
thing.
The American presidents step is so
chosen as not to be unpleasant to either
side. In any case it must be recog-
nized that his step was taken with
good intentions, in an attempt to set
up definite proposals.
Americas authority will probably
be rejected by both sides-but the sug-
gestion that they announce their OBJ !
jects can only help real negotiations

GOOD TIME FOR THE
PEOPLE OF BOISE TO
PAUSE AND REFLECT

Mayor S. Fl. Hays recalls to the
minds of citizens of Boise there
are some things of importance to
their municipality they should
pause to reflect upon now that
the Christmas season is here and
in statement given out last
night he enumerated them.
There are a few things at
this Christmas season which it is
well for us as citizens to recol-
lect," said Mayor Hays. The
health of the community during
the year was never better. There
have been fewer deaths and
fewer cases of contagious dis
eases than in 1915.
THE bank deposits were never
so large as at present. The
Christmas trade was much bet
ter than in 1915 or 1914.
There has been more building
in Boise the past year than in
1916 or 1914. The increase over
1915 is over s7oo a week.
THE losses by fire were the
smallest in many years.
I'VE have a remarkably peace
full, quiet and aw-abiding com
munity. In 1916 there were less
than one-third as many arrests
as in 1915.
AS a community we are NOV
ing slowly but surely forward.
Careful estimates indicate that
the population of the city and
adjoining precincts never was
greater.
I'm every material way we are
pushing forward and we have
developed united civic spirit
which will bring good things for
the future -
