EXPORTS BRING NEW
PRODUCTION RECORD

In response to the rapidly growing
motor vehicle market abroad, the pro-
duction of motor cars and mots
trucks reached the new high record
in October of 1892, according to
factory shipment reports filed at the
directors meeting of the National Au-
tomobile Chamber Of Commerce, New
York.
The export business is now calling
for more than one-half million cars
a year or over is of the production
schedule.
This gain in foreign markets. added
to healthy domestic conditions. has
created a demand which will make the
year 1925 pass the four million mark
for the second time in the history of
the automobile business. probably
reachin; total OF more than 1900
600.
The improved economic conditions
in Europe and road development in
all parts of the world are resulting
in greater demand for motor transpor-
tation.
In domestic sales. the low prices
now being offered are having a favor
able effect. All makes of automobiles
are now retailing ut prices lower than
at any preceding time.
The 1913 automobile dollar nov has
a purchasing power of S1.14 as COM
pared with the go current value of
the 1913 cost-of-living dollar. In short,
with most items much higher and au-
tomobilcs much lower, the purchas-
ability OF the automobile has been
materially increased.

Upon the tires of an automobile
rest large share of the responsible
ity for motoring safety"
This statement was made by III. c.
8. Smith, San Antonio Firestone
dealer, who gave a brief explanation
Of the parts played in braking al
automobile.
sunless the tires are SO constructed
as to transfer the action Of the brakes
to the road surface, the braking will
be largely nullified and the car will
slide. slip and skid.
"Both tire and automotive en-
gineers have recognized for years that
the tread of the tire must be designed
not only TO give traction for the car
to go ahead but to stop as well.
I'm developing the full.size balloon,
the Firestone Tire and Rubber Com
pany, also produced the greatest and
most efficient equipment from a
safety standpoint.
"The wider tread of the full size
balloon gives double the usual road
grip and greater braking surface.
There is firm traction under any foot
ing and the car promptly responds 10
the application of the brake pedal.
THE more numerous tread buttons
with their multiplied non-skid adges
convey a stronger, more positive nc
ton to the road-skidding and sliding
are practically eliminated. Balloons
also add to the safety of the car by
providing easy steering control at I'll
times.
"In these days of traffic conges-
ton and narrow thoroughfsres. the
question Of braking and car control
looms large in the mind of every mo
torist and is one Of the reasons for the
widespread popularity of Firestone
balloons"

GREATER AIR SPACE

Trend In bus and truck construc-
fion at the present time is toward
greater air space and tires that are
larger in section to meet the demands
of long. speedy service which vehicles
OF these classes of the present day
must give.
Miller this week announced a big
improvement in i6 bus and truck size
