GOODYEAR COMPANY
CLAIMED PIONEER IN
TRUCK TIRE MAKING
Assistant Sales Manager Tells
Of Experiments Made With
First Pneumatics and Deve1-
opment Of Cord Type.

s 1t is becoming generally known that
different fields OF motor truck service
require different types of. tire equip
ment. For instance. solid tires are
economical equipment on trucks en-
gagged in slow-speed. heavy duty serv-
ice, while pneumatics give good re-
turns in long distance transport, inter-
urban freighting, and general trucking
where cushioning and traction are es-
Hential.
The first trucks were fitted with
solid tires. for at that time no other
tires were available. Fully ten years
ago" says l.. c. Rockhill. assistant
sales manager. The Goodyear Tire &
NRubber company, Akron, o., I'VE be-
came convinced that there would be
great field for the pneumatic truck tire.
None had then been made. Trucks
We're then in experimental stage,
compared to today's development. And
we were generally laughed at and de-
rided for predicting "a great future for
the motor truck and pneumatic truck
tires.
Goodyear has been the pioneer in
developing, making and perfecting
spneumatic tires for motor trucks, and
has now developed a tire that has long
stree passed the experimental stage.
The company is not asking truck MAX
ers, agents users to do any expert
mentins.
1T WAS ten years ago that we bought
n number of trucks for use about our
fsctOrN. These We're all equipped with
solid tires, and We're extremely print
tive in their construction The factory
was put to work making n pneumatic
tire that would better protect the motor
and save repair bills.
with the tires that were developed
the trucks soon We're capable of per-
forming more work, because with pneu-
matte tires under them the drivers
found it unnecessary to slow down al
most to stopping. as they had previ-
ously done, for bumps and obstruc
tions on the street Speeds were higher
and more miles covered in day.
After careful review of the situa-
ton it was found that fabric tires would
never do on motor trucks. Fortunate
! ~. however, just at this time, expert
ments were started on cord tires for
electric passenger cars. The principle
Of cord construction was developed
Aeteadily until the cord tire was made
practical for the more powerful gaso-
lime passenger cars. And finally, the
development of the cord tire was
merged with the pneumatic truck tire
and the. final cord pneumatic truck
tire was produced. 49,

preferred for these freighters. Com
petitors continued to criticise and de
ride. but we kept on. had faith, made
better and better tires, and sold them
when we had made it clear to the
world that there was an extensive mar
ket for pneumatic tires; when truck
manufacturers and users began to ad
init that we were right-then the other
fellow' began TO creep into the mar
ket that had been created
