October 1S, 1917.
To the World:
Dear Friends: / suppose you will
be surprised when you receive this
letter but 1 thought 1 would drop a
few lines and let you know am still
alive
This is my third month in the army
and I am getting along fine I spent
the most of my time at camp Kelly
in San Antonio, Texas. While was
down there 1 was made non

non-com school every day and drilled
about five hours. There are one hun
dred and fifty men to squadron and

There are twelve machines and
twenty-four motor truck to the squad

have met lot of new friends and
they are all pretty good boys. They
represent every state in the Union;
some are rich and some are poor but
they all feel the same when we all

AUTOMOBILE TIRES PLAY
IMPORTANT WAR PART
Armored Car Success Is Dependent on
Tire Strength.

Tires have played a far more important
part In the great European conflict than
Is generally accredited to them. On a
smooth road tire life is only a matter
OF time, but In forcing its way over
bitches. emoankments and the like, the
tire becomes a vital part Of the armored
trucks equipment, and much of the sue
cess and development OF the armored
truck In war service in Europe Is due to
American made tires This Is the view
Of c. J. Welch, manager Of the truck
tire department of the United States Tire
Company.
mot only must a tire be subject to
unusual hazards of the road, but IT must
continually bear the enormous weight OF
the metallic car and its armaments every
where." continues Welch. AT the close
of the war undoubtedly many books will
be written on the armored motor car, but
am sure that its success has been largely
made possible through the unual dura-
bllity and strength OF the modern tire. !"
A large proportion OF the tires now used
abroad has come from this country, and,

Some Cities Regard Poor Brakes as

OFFERING WHEEL SETS.

In order to mako possible a wider use
of its straight-side tires on the smaller
cars, the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co,
Akron. Ohio. is offering interchan geable
wheel sets fitted with the Goodyear de-
tachabie rim.
The wheels offered are OF wood, and
carry S0x3 1-o inch tires, both front and

and bearings OF the original wheels on
the car. Motorists who like the demount-
able rim may secure the Goodyear de-

them to carry an inflated spare on the
extra rim; otherwise the detachable rim
Is supplied, having a side ring that may

.MACAULEY ATTACKS
MOTOR TRUCK TAXES
Says This Class Of Vehicle Is No More
Luxury Than a Wheelbarrow.

The injustice Of CHASING motor trucks
among the luxuries scheduled for taxa
ton in the war revenue bill is set forth
clearly In a statement which Alvan Ma
cauley, president of the Packard Motor
Car Company, has submitted to Senator
F. NJ Simmons, chairman Of the Senate
Committee on Finance.
Mr.. Maoauley contends that the truck
Is an out-and-out instrument of COM
merce, wholly economic In its uses and
Of great military value to the govern
ment He asserts. moreover, that the
making OF trucks Is a new industry, in
which no one as yet has got rich.
Truck manufacture is a very much
newer business than the manufacture of
motor cars" Mr.. Macauley wrote to
Senator Simmons. Your committee
never heard OF a manufacturer Of trucks
that has gotten rich out OF It No ono
ever took Joy ride in truck. 1t Is de-
signed to haul freight, and is as far re-
moved from being luxury as is a wheel
barrow
What, then, is the reason for sub
tecting trucks to the proposed 5 per
cent tax, in addition to all the other
taxes they will have to stand?
Trucks are made to take caro- of the
business OF the nation.
do not by harsh taxation discourage
the sale OF trucks, since they are used
chiefly for the distribution from producer
to consumer. They are combating the
high cost of living by eliminating the
middleman. They will be always avail
able for requisition by the government
in time Of need"

AMERICAN DRIVERS
CARELESS OF TIRES
European Chaufeurs Manage t
Treble Life of Motor Treads.

A recent issue OF one Of the we'll
known magazines of 'motordom shows
black line representing 1900 miles,
the uEual life OF a pneumatic tire In
Europa and shorter black line de-
picting 1000 miles, the usual life OF
a tire IN the United States, and In
the succeeding article inquiries why this
Is 20.
In the city OF Akron, Ohio. there are
today over twenty mechanical engineers
who receive salaries ranging from fif-
teen to twenty-five thousand dollars per
year for figuring out the required
amount OF tire mileage for a given
weight under normal conditions. II n
tire is to be of a three-inch diameter,
to carry a normal load Of 40 pounds,
II Is expected to have a definite air
pressure or imitation. To be more con-
crete, a ttre built by the older com
panies, for Ford car was intended
to be Inflated to a pressure OF Is pounds
to the cross-section inch.
In Europe, a chauffeur always knows
and carefully attends to the imitation
of his tires In America not one driver
IN ten ever purchases an air gauge.
When there Is free air. the same is
usually applied until some one IN the
car ramarks: That's enough" and that
IS all for that time.
Does II not stand to reason that II
a tire Is built on scientific principles
to do a given work under given and
carefully figured out conditions, It can
not perform the service expected under
conditions entirely foreign to those spe-

reason that the levers and connections
cannot be moved any further IN the di-
rection required.
II the connections have been fully
taken up and have gotten to the end

or the band needs refining. This is

testing the efficiency of an adjustment.
little dependence can be placed in the
method Of tacking up the car and haul
ing a wheel around by hand against
the brake. Such a method might be
effective II 10 or 12-foot lever could
be applied TO the spokes, but the best
course is to see how 1t acts on the
road against the engine and to see how
great distance is required to stop
the car from a speed Of 20 or Is miles
