ARE TIRE
PRICES HIGH?

A careful analysis of tire prices indi-
Gates that they are actually low. On
May She B. F. Goodrich Rubber COM
pany announced 20 per cent reduction,
which established what is undoubtedly a,
new level for the season of 1921 This
reduction brings Goodrich prices down to
point Is per cent below the pre-war
schedules as represented by the 1918 level.
According to Bradstreets Index, general
commodity prices have risen % per cent
during the same period. 1t is rather
startling to to find that in 1910 tire prices
were 115 per cent higher than today. The
lowest point in the history of tire prices
was in 1915, and was brought about by
the Goodrich conpanys fair list cam
paisn, when a drastic reduction was
made for the purpose of eliminating the
price initiation which had crept into the
industry. This extreme low point was
only 20 per cent below present schedules
Any discussion of tire prices, however.
is in complete unless comparative values
are considered The question is: How
many miles do | get from my tires today?
And how does this compare with what
l received in 1915? Beginning with 1915
and the war standardiza ton movement,
which extended over period of several
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1921-05-15

years, tremendous strides have been
made in quality and in the mileage serv-
ice of tires. The extent to which this IS
true is not realized by the motoring
public. Yet this increase in service is
actually measurable. In the first place,
consider the actual increase in size. For
instance. cord tires made by the leading
companies are uniformly 10 per cent over
the rated size. Specialization in the pro-
duction and preparation of raw ma
terials has been of incalcuable benefit
to tire quality. Remarkable progress has
been made in the art of compounding
rubber to produce the maximum degree
of wear These salient factors have
been supplemented by improved methods
of manufacture which have resulted in
a uniformity of quality and service alb
solutely unknown few years ago. A
tangible expression of the greater mile
age service now being built into tires is
reelected by the higher basis of adjust
ment generally used by the leading COM
panes. Thus if a tire proves defective
today it is adjusted, under the Goodrich
plan, on the basis of 5000 miles If it is
of fabric, and 5000 miles IL it is of cord
construction. Contrast this with the adj
justment basis in use few years ago,
l. e.. $500 miles. and it is easy to com
prehend the great progress made in tire
manufacture.
