GOVERNMENT TESTS
OF GREAT VALUE
Experiments Show Pneumatic
Tires Are of Service
to Roads.

WASHINGTON. July Q. - Tests
conducted by the bureau OF public
roads department of agriculture.
trucks are Of inestimable service in
the conservation OF highways
The department, in a statement
making known the results of its in
vestigations. says:
Many roads not originally in
tended TO carry heavy traffic were
seriously damaged during the period
of the war by the impact Of heavy
motor trucks. The natural result
of this was to warn highway en-
gineers of the importance of plan
ming all future roads with reference
to the kind of traffic that is likely
TO use them. The engineers re-
sponded Immediately by building
thicker roads and roads of more
dura BILE material. but in the absence
Of definite knowledge Of the prob
able strength Of the impact they
have not known exactly how thick
or how strong the roads should be
made.
tests snow service
Recent tests OF the impact of
motor truck made by the bureau Of
public roads develop the facts that
when a solid-t tired truck strikes a
one-inch obstruction the impact
may be as high jas seven times the
load. an average being about four
times.
The tests show. however, that
the impact depends largely on the
kind and condition of the tire
Pneumatic tires cause the least dam

Of air reducing the impact so that
il is seldom greater than one and
one-fourth times the static load on

increases with the speed OF the
truck. and il is therefore highly de-
sira BILE 10 limit speed by strict regu-
lation, the use of pneumatic tires
would make higher speed permits
sible.
The tests OF the bureau OF pub
| lie roads have pointed the way 10
more scientific designing OF roads
for motor truck traffic. and there is
every assurance that engineers will
now be able 10 build roads with
practical certainty that they will
withstand the blows of heavy We
hicles.
Further reinsurance in this re-
spect lies in the information that
manufa cturers are not building as
many trucks exceeding five tons ca
pacity as formerly. The number OF
industries in which very large trucks
can be kept continuously working is
extremely limited. so that the likeli-
hood Of forthcoming motor truck

siderably reduced"
