ECONOMY IN TIRES URGED
AS ONE OF WAR MEASURES

The need for strict economy be
cause OF the war conditions and the
Curtailment in the production OF au-
tomobile tires are causing many car
owners who have never given a sc e
rious thought to the performance
OF the tires on their cars and who
have kept no record OF the miles OF
service got out of each tire, to give
careful attention to the selection OF
tires for their automobiles.
The United States Tire company
finds in this fact one OF the reasons
for the amazing increase in the de-
mand for its Royal Cord tires. Re-
ports received daily by the COM
pany indicating surprising mile
ages by Royal Cords is believed by
the company to provide the OK
PLANTATION for tho remarkable favor
which the tires are finding in these
times Of stress.
From Sacramento comes the rec
ord OF some Royal Cords used on a
Chalmers six, operated by the Amer
ican Taxi company. Tis car was
equipped all around In September,
1917, with Royal Cords, The right
hand rear tire had a remarkable his
tory. Though the tire on the right
hand rear wheel gets the hardest
usage, 1t ran for 1921 miles with
out having had a puncture and with
out having been removed from the
wheel, when a few weeks ago II
ceased to give further mileage.
Two Of the other tires were re-
treaded after giving 16, 900 miles and
the third was retrhaded after giving
1900 miles
The manager Of the taxi company
regards the use OF Royal Cords as
war economy OF the sanest type.
