Government Subsidy for
Japanese Who Buy Cars
When the Pneumatic Tire
First Came to the Front

One Of the spectators at the first
pneumatic-tired bicycle race was W. b.
Harding, head of the Indianapolis plant
of the United States Tire Company.
The race took place at track meet
in Ireland in the late summer of 1889.
bicycle racing was popular in Great
Britain at the time and at this par
ticular. meet the best wheelmen of the
prominent clubs participated.
Much interest and surprise were
evidenced" says Mr.. Harding, in a
little booklet, giving the history of the
events Of the day, Mr.. DuCros and his
two sons appeared Ion the track with
bicycles equipped with what seemed to
everybody at the time to be balloon
tires, and a good deal Of comment of
a rather sarcastic nature was made re-
garding them. -.
"The tires justified their introduction
right from the start, however, as the
DuCroses we're placed first, second and
third in every race in which they took
part. They followed up their success
>on this track by further astonishing
demonstrations in different parts Of the
country, SO quickly convincing the rid
ing public of Great Britain of the
LucIlLS VI Luc pHSuAunCIC Clic sudC Oc-
fore the end of 1890 every bicycle
made was equipped with them.
Although Robert w. Thompson was
the first inventor of the pneumatic tire,
so little use was made of his patent
that all credit for the introduction of
the pneumatic tire in connection with
modern vehicles should be given to DR..
Dunlop, the Irish veterinary surgeon,
who revived and revised tha pneumatic
tire, and who was granted patent for
his invention. which was later held
invalid because of the priority OF
Thompson's claims. To this day the
Dunlop tire is practically the only one
manufactured in England, and Messrs.
DuCros control it's destinies."
With these tires as the first; step,
the tire industry took quick leap
forward and soon this country led the
world in quality and quantity Of pro-
duction. The three American COM
panies which quickly gained promi-
nence were Morgan & Wright, the
G. and j. Tire Company and the Hart
ford Rubber Works Company, which
to-day are three of the great automo-
bile tire producing factories in the
United States Tire Company's system.

Purchase Price and An
nual Upkeep Both
Partly Paid

Japan has offered to every buyer of
an automobile or truck In the empire
$500 toward the purchase price and
$3.50 yearly to help pay for the main
tenance of the vehicle, in exchange for
the privilege of speedily commander
ing motors whep the occasion de-
mands, according to the foreign sales
department of the B. F. Goodrich Rub
Der Company.
This subsidy is intended to promote
the use of automobiles and to encour-
age their manufacture within the en-
pire. In Nippon most of the trucking
is done by men who pull two-wheeled ID
carts. and most of the passenger traf-
fic on the streets and highways is by
means of jinrikishas. A more general
use Of motor vehicles would release
thousands of men for work in fac
tories.
1t will be several years before Japan
will be able to produce anywhere near
her own needs in motor vehicles and
accessories. Only three concerns in
Japan are now building automobiles
One of these has made about half a
dozen cars and another is assembling
from parts imported from America.

Would Have Law to
Make Jay Walking .
Impossible

William c. Poertner, president-elect
Of the Motor Club Of New York, is Of
the opinion that an educational cam
paign to teach people to cross the
streets at street crossings only would
be highly beneficial act and tend to
decrease the number of automobile
accidents.
"Any one who drives a car cannot
help noticing how often pedestrians
leave the sidewalk in the middle of
the block, attempting to cross the
street at an angle and in nine cases
out of ten failing to look to see whether
or not automobiles are approaching"
says Mr.. Poertner. Frequently this
means that the driver is forced to steer
in an arc to get around the person or
else pull his brakes suddenly in man
which may be following closely.
"If an ordinance were in force re-
quiring pedestrians to cross only
Mt regular street intersections, they
would learn by degrees to adhere to the
rule, and the fact that chauffeurs as a
rule slow down at street crossing or
are prepared to slow down would great
ly lessen the number of accidents.
each season large number of chill
dren are injured. not because of the
fault of the motors, but because the
children dodge behind cars in the mid
die of the block. OF course, it is more
difficult to teach this to children than
to adults, but much more effective work
could be done in this way by school
teachers.
"The streetcar companies have ac-
complished considerable in their cam
paign, teaching women not to step Off
car platforms backward, and police
regulations about automobiles coming
to standstill when pedestrians are
getting on or off the streetcar, rs well
as the eight-foot rule, have resulted d
most satisfactorily and nowadays
there are far fewer accidents resulting
from combination of streetcar and
automobile"

Kerosene Equipment Drives
Ford Car Far on This Fue'

In test Of the equipment made by
the Kerosene Equipment Company, OF
Detroit, on Ford car, 37.7 miles were
covered on one and quarter gallons
of kerosene. The trial was made by
the Detroit Automobile Club, on a
car which is reported as not having
been in the best of mechanical condi-
tion.
F. W. Sullivan, the observer, states
that much of the distance was over or
dinary country roads. "About eighteen
miles OF the trip was through fairly
heavy traffic." he says. "a speed of
twenty-five miles an hour was main
tanned. Performance of the car was
equal to if not better than what it
could have done on other types Of
fuel"
