~ MERE is hardly motorist who
hasn't at some time or other in
his experience had a tire dealer
attempt to sell him a tire by rep
resenting it as the fastest seller in
town.
More attempts are probably made
to sell tires by playing to the motor
lists alleged weakness for " crowd of
buyers" than by any other known
method of selling.
? .
The experienced motorist, of course,
refuses to surrender his individual
Judgment to any crowd or mass OF
whatever size.
Too often he has seen the results
of accepting opinions at their face
value, without first finding out EUbGt
they are based on.
And you will find him going more
and more to the dealer who has
something to offer in support Of his
tires, other than Crowds of buyerS"
and numbers Of sales"

Opinions about
Tires should be Weighed
as we'll as Counted

The opinion in favor Of y. S. Tires
is not based solely on the number OF
them In use.
Great as that number is, it is due to
besides clever arguments.
Thousands of motorists today are
putting up with second choice tires
because forced production is incO'Sis-
tent 1gitb US. standard of quality.
The United States Rubber Com
pany's enormous invesment-gr greater
than that Of any concern in the in~
dustry-has always been aimed solely
at quality.
Building a tire first and a market
afterwards Thinking of the isdi-
vidMaI user instead of the number of
sales.
One of the reasons, perhaps, why
there is now a scarcity of U. S. Tires.
IF the time ever comes when y. S.
Tires can be supplied to all, or nearly
all, of the people who want them,
they will still have more to recommend
them than merely the largest following.

Problem of extraordinarily Increase
Up for Final Hearing of Wage
Board in Session at Head
quarters in Chicago.

Chicago. May 19.-Wage increases of
more than $1,000,0O0000 TO railroad
employees. with an advance of IS per
cent TO the public in cost Of freight
transportation service, were forecast
at the first meeting of the United
States railway board, now in perma-
nent headquarters at Chicago.
The roads already are asking for

take care of the wage increases al
ready granted, spokesman for the roads
declared. They will need another 80
per cent raise to grant the additional
wage demands of the rail workers. the
board was informed.
a statement of the railroads side or
the problem was made by L. L. Whit
er, chairman of the conference COM
mittee of the Association of Railway
Executives
The entire board. appointed April l.
by President Wilson, was present. The
members are: Henry Hunt, George
w. Hangar and X. NJ. Barton, repre-
senting the public; Horace Baker, ].
III. Elliott and William L. Park, for the
railroads, and Albert Phillips, A. o.
Wharton and James J. Forester, for
the employees.
Washington, May 19.-Railway and
public service commissions in every
state were called to the aid of the in
terstate commission and the railroads
to break the freight blockade.
The commission telegraphed the
state agencies asking them to cooper
ate fully and to use all means in their
power to alleviate conditions i'm their
states.
The commission announced definite
ly that ii did not contemplate holding
hearings upon the appeal of the rail
roads for the government to use its
emergency powers under the transpOr-
tatiOn act.
Members of the commission met
with representatives of the railroads to
discuss means of breaking the freight
blockade. Officials declared the prob
lem was of such magnitude that So
luton might require more time than at
first anticipated. They were hopeful,
however, that today or Wednesday
would see a definite program for the
movement of the vast volume of ac-
cumuiated freight
The railroads suggested several de-
| tails to the commission for inclusion
in its traffic plan. One of these was Il
| general scheme for the movement of
| grain cars westward and coal cars
eastward to meet current require
mentS.
Cars for food and perishables how
ever, would have full preference over
all others under the railroad mems
| plan.
! Meanwhile more trouble for the rail-
roads doomed in reports to the COM
mission and the car service commit
tee of the railroads. Several lines
hitherto able to keep their tracks rela-
| lively clear, were reported as smoth-
cred under the avalanche of freight.

Washington, May 2l.-Adoption by
American bankers of the recommends
ton of Governor Harding of the fed
eral reserve board ito liquify frozen
loans was expected by board officials
TO alleviate the financial situation and
to go far toward bringing down prices.
Governor Harding applied the term
frozen loans" to credit extension
which was permitting large stocks of
merchandise TO be held in storage for
speculative purposes. Additional ac-
emulation Of goods in storage, he in
dicated, could be prevented by strict
supervision of credit.
Representative King of Illinois, re-
Gently charged in the house that pres

ting commodities TO be kept off the

pounds of condensed and evapOrated
milk were being held in storage. i'm
comparison with slightly more than 81
100000 pounds a year ago.
Although legislation designed to
drive foodStuffs from storage is now
pending in congress, it was said that
careful withdrawal of credit from
spectators in food products might ac-
complish more than statutory regula-
ton. 1t was emphasized, however,
that discrimination should be exer-
ciSed by bankers, inaSmich as i'm many

In the financial district this policy

the extent of hundreds of millions of
dollars in the last fortnight. In one
instance, that Of i prominent trust
company, it is said that credits of this
character had been reduced by $780,
100000 in the last three weeks
Banks in the wholesale dry goods
and general merchandise districts have
been proceeding along the same lines,
and the pressure exerted by those in
situations is said to be directly resp0n-
| sible for the wave of price-cutting in
many lines of retail trade, especially
by the large department stores.
Downtown banks, which in a large
measure control operations of uptown
banks, are reported to have advised
