New-York tribune., 1919-05-29

During the war, with our tire produc>
ton curtailed and thousands ofcust0m>
ers' orders standing untitled ON our
dealers books, we found encouragement
in thinking Of the coming time when
supply would equal demand.
With the arnistfce we set about the
immediate readjustmentof our factories,
and laid down for them a tire produc-
ton schedule by far the heaviest they
had ever known.
That schedule is now in being-by dint
OF great labor we have even surpassed
it--last weeks output, for example,
averaged the enormous figure of 1886
finished tires per day.
Yet Notwithstanding our most careful
preparations, madein anticipation of an
unprecedented business, our passenger
car tire volume is still insufficient fully
to meet all existing demands.
There rs for us considerable element of
embarrassment in SO great and growing
a preference on the part of the public
for Goodyear Tires, and in our own
failure properly to satisfy this preference.
In one sense we feel it to be reproach
TO our own estimate Of Goodyear Tires
popularity, which, although we knew it
4

New-York tribune., 1919-05-29

to be great, has now exceeded ANYTHING
we had imagined.
There is the regret on our part, too, at
our inability to serve immediately all
the people who look to us for service,
since we do appreciate their friendships
and their custom.
But SO far it has been not humanity DOS
slble for us to produce tires of standard
Goodyear quality in the volume all these
people demand.
There are probably many GOODYEAR
Service Station Dealers that have full
stocks Of Goodyear Tires; on the con-
rary there are many others whose
stocks are very low.
Should you encounter one of the latter.
and be unable to have your wants filled
there, we ask you to absolve that dealer
Of any fault in the matter whatsoever.
The fault if there is a fault, is entirely
our own, in our temporary inability to
build enough Goodyear Tires to satisfy
public needs
Night and day we are pushing the
Goodyear factories to remedy this con-
dit1on, in an endeav0r to make Good
year Tires as easy to get as they are
worth while TO use~

Tinl of a halftone picture Of William

peror, copy of "The Easy Road to
Reading" a textbook used in some
Montana schools, has started investiga-

one copy of the book has been received

teacher discovered the picture, state au-
thoritles understand that at least the
full consignment of the books sent to

The picture, printed on heavy paper,
was inserted in the book and was not
printed with the text Nor was refer

hero is that the pictures We're placed

tribution. State officials made 1t clear
that they blamed German propagandists

THIS STARTS THE STORY

In the summer of 1917 Maria
Botchkareva formed the Battalion
of Death. woman's fighting unit in
the Russian army, and a peasant girl
thus stepped into the international
hall of fame. This is/her story. In
earlier installments she told of the
hardships of her childhood. of the
brutalities of her married life and
the realization of her wish to be
come a soldier She told of bat
ties fought and won and of the
Generalization of the army after
the overthrow Of the Car. It was to
shame the men into action that the
battalion was formed. but it was
only partially and for a time sue.
cessful. When at last the men of
their own army forced the battalion
to disband. Botchkareva, sick and
wounded. returned home. She was
summoned to Petrograd by officers
who were disgusted with the Boil
shevist government and SEN on an
important mission to General Korni-
Low. She starts on her way dis
guised as a Sister of Mercy.

off his advances with a smile and

good meal. at which the conversation
turned to general conditions. He was,
of course. a rabid Bolshevik and a
savage opponent Of Kornilov and all
officers. My part in the conversation
was confined to brief expressions OF
acuuiescence. Suddenly he asked:

Stewarts have these exclusive advantages:
They cost less to buy-Cost less
to operate-Cost less to maintain
Require less attention in opera

If you now operate trucks, check over what their
