TircDe Destruction;

Mr.. Perram. of Tulsa Rubber and
Vulcanizing company, who Is n
great booster locally for Michelin
tires, says that: The wheels of
car should always run exactly par
aliel Anything which prevents this
viii cause tire trouble. Too much
pIay in the nxle-end bearings. too
great a freedom in the steering joints
or possibly bent spindle or axle
end invariably exacts the penalty.
Brakes. too, when they are out or
order. damage tires. For example,
n only one of the back wheels locks
when applying the brakes the tire
on the slipping wheel will surely
be injured.
Another kind OF tire trouble arises
from weakened springs. Every time
the car jolts badly the upper part
Of the tire rubs against the mud
guard and as a result the casing
is damaged.
Then again. oil or grease, from
leaky or overfilled tanks, should not
be permitted TO reach the tires be-
cause oil and other fatty substances
are most injurious 10 rubber.

URGE COMPLETION or
HEAVY TRAFFIC HIGHWAYS
Would Bc Useful In ReIicivng Rail-

Resolutions urging the govern-
ment to complete highways for
heavy traffic where they can be uss-
ful In relieving railroad congestion
and to adopt a permanent policy as-
surlpg coordination OF the railroads.
highways and waterways for traffic
service were adoptedTt the recent
Chicago convention of the chamber
OF commerce of the United States.
The resolutions pointed out that Wig
orous prosecution Of the war makes
1t imperative that the main Highways
as well as the railroads and water
ways should be used TO move
freight. Il. A. Sieberling, director
OF the chamber. said in an address:
THE forty thousand motor trucks
now In service In the country, have
sounded the death-knell OF ti,e
short-lin railroad. Within range
OF so to 100 miles the motor trucx
competes on better than even tsrns
with the railroad and all that is
needed to widen this zone Is the
building OF hard-faced highways
capable OF carrying ten-ton trucks
at u speed In excess Of twenty miles
an hour.
