chief Indictment is the way we waste
our power. This applies particularly

owner or driver has an opportunity
TO apply his power In the right di-

ITO the motorists of the country

CITES SPECIAL VIRTUE. !:
IN THE BALLOON TIRE
Designed to Carry Load at Lower
Air Pressure Is Held Chief
Recommend finn

The balloon tire, of which so muck
is being written and said at present
has one principal reason for existence.
II is designed and built to carry a
given load at a much lower air pres~
sure than the present standard tire
which it replaces. II differs in design
from the standard type in that the
cross section diameter is much larger.
For example,: A $40 cross section
diameter balloon tire replaces a AZ
inch (actually 4.95-inch) cross section
diameter standard tire. 1t is different
in construction in that it is much more
flexible than those used at present.
Are they practical?' is one OF the
first questions the average motorist is
answer is decidedly in the affirmative,
according TO Miller balloon tire eS-:
perts, who base their declaration upon
facts revealed by exhaustive tests at
the factory.
Maximum comfort is the main idea in
developing this type of tire. There
has been an increasing demand for such
a tire for several years. Most develop
ment efforts, however, have been e1-
pended in creating one which would give
maximum service at lowest cost. Now
that the average motorist Is satisfied
that he is getting his tire mileage at
very reasonable cost, attention is turned
to the fact that this accomplishment
may not have been obtained with great
est comfort Consequently an easy
riding tire is without question the
greatest potential demand of the con-
