1t has been the custom of the an

In this manner, it is pointed out, any

National Sale OF Good
Used Cars

On Monday morning, August
lst, in every Jordan distributors
sales room in the United States,
there will be displayed the finest
selection of used cars ever offered
to the public by any organization
in the industry.
And these cars will be offered
at prices which will result in
their immediate sale.
For ten days consecutively the
Jordan distributor in this city will
offer for sale the best used cars
available, strictly in accordance
with the same fine policy which
mas always governed the pur-
chase of new Jordan car.

National Policy ON
Used Cars Given Out
BY Jordan Company
Plan Aims to Raise Stand
ard i'm Buying and Selling
of Automobiles That Have
Been Taken i'm Trade

TOO long have motor car manufac-
turers closed their eyes to the need of
raising the standard in used car buy
ing. This has resulted" said Edward
5. Jordan, sin dcplorable lack of
confidence on the part of the public in
buying used cars This need for q
definite stand regarding the used car
situation has led US to announce to the
public used car policy which will be
national in its effect and will operate
through every Jordan distributor
throughout the United States
"This policy considers the used car
buyer in the same light that we do the
buyer of new car Many who have
hitherto hesitated to buy used car
for lack of confidence in the organiza-
ton selling it can now go into Jordan
distributor and buy car with that
Jordan cars know.
"While startling in its broad fun
damental understanding of the needs
of motor car buying, this policy is
but forerunner Of what will be the
ultimate attitude Of all good manu-
facturers.
"In announcing this policy the Jor-
dan Motor Car Company, through its
many distributors, is conducting a ten
day Ised-car sale in which the value,
the service and the general condition
Of the car are pledged to be exactly as
represented"
News of this plan was brought back

Cord Tires Have Worked
Great Change i'm Motoring
Greater Mileage Now and Cost
of 1t Is Lower Than
Ever Before

Hail the cord tire! Although its
rise to popular favor has not been
spectacular. steadily and through sheer
merit it has established itself in the !
realm of motordom. Not many years
ago cord tires were considered only as
equipment for luxurious cars. Their
cost was considered prohibitive by the
average motorist. They were used al |
most exclusively on the bouleva yds Of
the big cities during their early days.
To-day they are found on every type
of passenger car and have even in
vaded the truck field, and in some lines
OF motor transportation have ousted
the solid rubber tire. Practically every
make OF passenger car has adopted
them as standard equipment The pop
uiar demand is for cords for replace
ments and cord equipped new cars are
the most attractive "buy" The cord
has been found as rugged for rough
country. roads as for city pavemerta
Amerlca's nine million motorists arc
deeply indebted to the cord tire 1t
has set new standards for mlleaQe and
remarkable service it was necessary
tor manufacturers to improve the ma
terlals and construction of fabric tires
70 the new service standard of cords.
consequently the motorist of to-day is
getting more than double the mileage
and at lower prices than he did in the
tlres OF ten years ago. Cords have
strengthened the entire tire lineup.
PROBABLY the biggest single advance
in the career of the cord tire was when
20 per cent price reduction was an.
nounced in the price of Silvertown
cords by the B. F. Goodrich Rubber
Company, on May 2. Cord tires were
placed within the reach of thousands
OF motorists who had previously CON
sldered their price prohibtive. TO .day
tire sales are running heavily to cords.
1t is significant that this drastic move
was made by Americas pioneer cord
tire manufacturer. And by the same
company that produced, in 1896, the
hrst American clincher type pneumatic
tire for autom obiles.
The modern cord tire was evolved
from the Palmer bicycle tire. While
the patents were owned by J. M. Palmer.
of England, Goodrich manufactured
them exclusively in the United States
Tor number of years. Later, when
Palmer sold his patents to a rubber
company in Silvertown, England, the
American rights under these patents
were acquired by the Goodrich company
in 1912.
Many changes and improvements in
construction and method of manufac-
ture OF this type of tire have been made
during the past ten years, but the
original cord pneumatic tire idea for
BICYCLES has been the fundamental prin-
clple throughout
Automobiles would have been i'm
practicable without pneumatic rubber
tlres, and since pneumatics were first
developed for bicycles, modern motor
transportation history must reserve a
contribution.

today would buy a good used
car il they had complete conf

for sale, and the price at which

have feared to associate their
good names with the sales ofused

losing prestige.

For ten days, those individuals
who have been waiting for Just
such an opportunity may buy a
