PORTAGE WOMAN
AWARDED DAMAGES

The $4,000 damage case against the
city of Portage brought by Mrs. Emeh
Hamele resulted in verdict of $500
for Mrs. Hamele. The jury stated
positively that the damages awarded
were for the depreciation in value Of
Mrs. Hamele's property which is stu
ated in close proximity to the sceptic
tanks of the Portage sewer system.
Mrs. Hamele brought suit to re-
cover damages, charging that by rea-
son fthe sceptic tanks, drinking
water on her PROPERTY became pol
luted and conditions unsanitary. She
claimed this caused sickness in the
amily as well as depreciation in
the value Of her property.

From time to time, in an endeavor to
save you from possible disappoint~
ment, we have suggested that you
anticipate your future requirements for
Goodyear Tires.
We have recommended that you do
50 by placing reservation order with
your nearest Goodyear dealer, SO that
when your need appears he can meet
it promptly.
Very probably you have asked your
self if even the slight trouble Of this
precauton were justified, in view of
the many good tires that are now on
the market.
Possibly you have questioned if
Goodyear Tires do SO far excel those
tires that are plentiful, as to make it
worth while for you to wait for them
at ALL
In answer we can only point to the
situation in which we now find
selves, and the goodness Of Goodyear
Tires as evidenced by their present
unmatched position.
Our factories are delivering the largest
daily volume ever attained by a tire

proximates $4,000 finished tires day.
Despite the immensely of this figure,
which we are striving constantly to ex>
pand, our production is still insufficient
fully to satisfy all public demands.
Nothing in the history of the tire in
dustry approaches the intensity Of favor
in which Goodyear Tires today are
everywhere held.
1t is significant that this enormous de-
mand is made up of no other thing than
the normal, widespread, and steadily
growing preference for Goodyear Tires
No fictitious discounts, no delusive
definite mileage guarantee, no ex>
pedients ofany sort have been employed
to stimulate artifcially the even march
Of sales.
On the intrinsic merit of the product
and the service it has year after year
delivered, rests the unexampled leader

SOLONS OF STATE
PLEDGE SELVES TO
LIMIT ROAD BONDS

Lansing, March 27.-By pledging
themselves not to authorize the issue
Of Highway bonds In a sum OF more
than Five Million Dollars year. tho
House OF Representatives and the
state Senate have given irrefutable
evidence that vote for the Good
Roads amendment by the people AT
the election April 7 cannot saddle a
Fifty million dollar bonded debt upon
Michigan's taxpayers.
The pledge given by the Michigan
legislature was in the shape OF resola-
tons unanimously adopted by both
the House and the Senate and was in
spired by the fact that many of the
legislators constituents had gained
the erroneous impression that the con.
stitutional amendment with its Fifty
Million Dollar figure OF limitation in
volved an immediate bond Issue of
Fifty Million Dollars.
The state senate was first with the
resolution. State Senator William
Connelley, chairman OF the Highways
