A difficult task

A tread must be more than endur-
ing. It must be resilient to protect
the balance Of the tire.
Some tough treads are hard and
brittle. They shorten the life Of the
tire. They easily cut, and then they
form no protection to the tire
The problem was to make resili-
ent tread which would outlast the

We made such a tread and proved
it. Then the problem was to every
day make treads exactly like that.
The only way to do that was to
test each lot of tread stock Every
day a sample comes to our labora-
tory. There it is vulcanized and
tested before the treads are made.
And no tread stock which fails IN
this test ever goes in a Miller.
