DON'T REDUCE AIR PRESSURE
IN TIRES DURING SUMMER

A timely warning to autOists
against reducing the air pressure in
their tires during the hot summer
weather is now particularly oppor-
tune This fallacy is common among
motorists who do not understand
that radiation carries off any sur
plus heat that might otherwise be
dangerous to the life Of a tire.
Even during the terrific grind OF
the race track when tires undergo
the most gruelling punishment. this
principle holds. II Is underinflatiOn
even during the hottest days, that
ruins more tires than any other
cause, according to experts OF the
Miller Rubber company at Akron,
Ohio. The facts are that recon-
mended air pressures are safe even
in the summer
By reducing pressure, the in
creased flexing of the tire merely
creates the condition which the car
owner wishes to guard against The
motorist can well afford the time
needed to gage the air pressure in
his tires for the sake OF greatly in
creased mileage.

Autos Take Hazard From Rural Life
With ODer so Percent of Country
Doctors Cunning Passenger Machines

PASSENGER cars have taken the
1 hazard out Of country life. One
hundred thousand automobiles
speeded doctors on their errands Of
mercy during the past year, and the
rural physicians were the most fully
motorized. The latest directory OF
doctors gives the total number Of
practitioners as 147,S12 in the United
States. Recent medical school gradu-
ates have probably made the total
pass the 10000 mark.
TwO-thirds Of the doctors In the
United States own automobiles. City
doctors find the passenger car con-
venient and an asset. Doctors IN
rural districts find the motor car
Indispensable. A canvass OF leading
medical journal conducted by the Ma
tional Automobile chamber Of COM
merce brought IN the report that over
30 percent OF the country doctors own
passenger cars.
The effect, consequently, Of the
car upon the health Of rural districts
is immeasurable. In spite OF the
poetry about applecheeked country
boys and girls, the death rate on the
farms has been higher than in urban
districts. This IS largely because the
remoteness Of medical care has made
rapid treatment Of disease difficult,
and has hampered the spread OF
knowledge regarding sanitation
IF we had only taken II in time
has been the immemorial lament OF
physicians confronted with a bad

NEW INCREASE IN PRICE
OF TIRES IS PROBABLE

Local tire dealers who have been
concerned with the probability Of en-
forced decrease Of tire prices re-
Gently. began Investigating the gen
eral condition Of the market only to
learn that there is a strong prob
ability OF q new increase IN price.
There will be manufactured about
1,6OO, 900 passenger automobiles and
$4,000 trucks, which, combined with
the number Of automobiles in use,
viii cause the demand to increase to
something over S0,OOO.00O tires" one
of the statements asserts. when one
considers two points Of outstanding
Importance in this connection, namely,
only 45.0OO,00O tires are now being
manufactured, and the factories now
operating are using virtually all the
raw materials available, It Is easily
understood that tire prices cannot de-
cline"
