ROBERTS SAYS
 THIEVES ARE

Bob Roberts, manager of the Phoe nix Rubber company, tells a little story about tire thieves which he claims is truthful to 't." and should serve as warning to all motorists. Says Roberts:
 "This may be an old one. but George Winsor. whose reputation for veracity is high, swears 1t actually happened to an insurance man in Hartford.
 Tt seems that this gentleman bought a new Cadillac, and having a rather nice taste in tires, had II equipped all around with Kellys.
 One day soon after he got it, the car was standing out in front of his office, when, happening to glance out of the window, he saw two men lacking it up. Hurrying downstairs he inquired what the blinkety- blink blank they thought they were doing upon which they informed him rather indignantly that they were from the Cadillac service station and that | was their job. whenever they saw Cadillac parked anywhere to examine the brakes, the alignment of tho wheels. air pressure in the tires. etc so that every Cadillac owner wouio get the maximum of satisfactory ser vice from his car.

MOTORB|KE SHOWS
 GAIN IN FAVOR

With Maryland joining the ranks of states equipped with state con- stabulary mounted on motorcycles, attention is again focused on the motorbike and the big part it plays in the nations daily affairs.
 Of late it seems to have become daily occurrence over the country for bandits and others of their ilk to use the automobile for extending their operations almost at will in broad daylight, but police departments are effectively coping with many or these situations through the use of the speedy and quick to- getaway mo- torcycle.
 According to the Firestone Tire & Rubber. company, a review of the situation indicates that whereas criminals appear to become more daring than ever there is no 'abnor- nal increase in the number of crimes thus committed but in many cases the offenses are so spectacular as to leave the impression of yeritabie crime wave. As a matter of fact, there is no doubt that the motor cycle police play great part in keeping within bounds the element relying on a quick getaway as their only salvation
 With the states, most important
  maintaining motorcycle police, the crook is being kept on the run, while the joy rider. intoxicated and care less drivers, also are being kept within bounds.
 Nor, the Firestone company report concludes, are the police alone in adopting the motorcycle for emer-
 gency, for the speedy two-wheelers | are fast coming into general use by hospitals sending first aid, post offices. telegraph and messenger ser
 vice, drug stores filling prescrip- tions, other store delivery, caterers | with hot meals, while several fire l departments maintain a motorcycle and side car for quick work with | their chemical apparatus. With registration continuing to
 mount and the many everyday needs
 of the motorcycle becoming more and
 more apparent, a very bright outlook | is seen for the industry.

a Fresno newspaper man.
 The purpose of the run on the part of the Willys- Overland Pacific com pany officials was simply to force home to the minds of the public .he really remarkable performance ability of the sleeve valve motor with which Willys-Knight cars are equippe ." declared l.. NJ. Stewart, manager of the Willys-O Overland Pacific company branch in San Francisco. And the run and record established lived up to our expectations of the merits of the motor and car. The first 72S9 miles were made without a motor stop for any purpose, and although il was not our intention to make a non- stop run, all of the executives of the company take great pride in this ad- ditlona1 proof of the dependability of the motor."
 Men in automobile circles here were discussing the feat of the Willys- Knight car this week with much in terest, and it's performance on the Fresno speedway was declared D be conclusive proof of the stamina, de- portability and cooling properties of the sleeve valve motor with which the Willys-K Knight is equipped
 The heat in Fresno during the test was the most torrid in years, due to the hot spell which prevailed throughout the whole country, but Fresno proper was cool when com pared to the intense heat that pre- vailed in the bowl of the wooden speedway, which is built so that it eff fectively blocks any cooling breezes from penetrating to the bottom of the bowl.
 The drivers, observers and officials were forced to simmer under a sun that raised the heat on the track dur ing the afternoon hours to temper atures ranging from 130 to 150 de- grees Fahrenheit. Yet official obser- CTS declared that in spite of this heat and the high rate of speed maintained only a very small quantity of water was put in the radiator, some days as high as eight hours of the steady grind passing without any water be- ing put in the radiator.

By the year 1914 rubber had arrived at a position of importance and had a place of its own in the census re- ports. Rubber tires had also come to an important position, and there is no doubt that the recognition given to the rubber industry was dependent on the enormous increase in the man ufacture of tires. Rubber manufac- lures for the year totalled s300.- 993,796. Forty-eight per cent of this total represented the production of tires, the amount being SAG, ,421,561
 A recently issued preliminary statement of the bureau of the cen sus covering the results of the 1920 census of manufacturers with refer ence to the rubber industry. shows that 475 establishments. devoted prin- cipally to the production of rubber goods, manufactured during the year 1919 goods to the value of $1.13S.- 216, ,O00 The value of tires and tubes produced was sS2S..424, 900.
 Manufacture of rubber has come to be an essentially American indus try for in this field the United States easily dominates. It is estimated that seventy per cent of all crude rubber consumed in the world is manufac- tured into useful articles in this country.

TRUCK DRIVERS
 NEED TO WATCH
 SMALL STONES

If the driver of a horse drawn truck finds that his horses hoof has picked up a stone, he does not neglect it, but stops immediately and re- moves the stone. He knows that to neglect the stone means serious in jury to the horse and consequent loss to himself.
 Solid tires on trucks are as likely to pick up stones as are horses hoofs. The stones force their way into the rubber and sink deeper with

each revolution of the wheel To per- init them to remain means an injury to the tire, which will increase rapidly.
 The United States Tire company states that the pEoper course of pro- cedure under such circumstances is to remove the stone and cut away the rough edges.
 With regard to cuts in solid tires. the United States Tire company says that it is practically impossible for even the most careful drivers to avoid them. These cuts should be taken care of when first discovered, because with each revolution of the tire the cut spreads a little and in time the small cut will become a large fissure extending down to the hard rubber base. This then gives rise to separation and chipping. The remedy is to trim off the edges of the small cut until, instead of a sharp cut, there is a smooth depression in the tire.

TIRES ARE NOW
 RECOGNIZED IN
 CENSUSF|GURES

When the government of the United States was taking the manufacturers census in 1905, it took notice for the first time of the tire industry.
 In the census report for that year there appeared in the discussion of the general subject of automobiles about three lines of printed matter about tires These lines expressed the opinion that the manufacture of automobile tires was in a fair way to become a real industry.
 With this brief recognition from that department of our government which records the rise and fall of the tide of American industries both tires and rubber disappeared from the pages of the reports of the manufac- turers' census for ten years. By this time-1914-the rubber industry had become lusty young giant and so well thought of that the bureau of the census brought out from it's dusty archives figures showing the rate of growth of the industry in those earlier days when it's slow progress carried no indication of the bigness it was soon to attain, says a bulletin of the United States Rubber company.
 Prior to 1914 the figures obtained by the bureau of census were Jumped under the onf Lead of Rubber" Un der this arrangement automobile and bicycle tires took their place with rubber boots. hot water bottles and jar rings as one of miscellaneous lot of articles manufactured from rub ber There was no reason before that to allot to tires a special place in Uncle Sams table of statistics re. garding manufactures of large inn portance.
 Because of the fact that these early statistics on the rubber industry show, the extreme limit which tire manu- facture might have attained had 1t monopolized instead of forming only a fractional part of rubber produc- ton, they have an interest to the student of the growth of the tire in- dustry and for that reason are given
