Using less rubber
means getting back
to bre>evQr mileage

to pre>W0r mileage
Tire and Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio
Much has been printed re-
Gently about the high price
of rubber and the necessity
for rubber conservation. This
news has not only given the
public an exaggerated idea Of
tire prices, but has sup
ported the claim that rub
Der can be saved by using
less of it in a tire.
When rubber is cheap, tire
manufacturers generally use
more of it. The necessity for
using the same quantity of
good rubber for the sake of
long-wearing quality does not
change regardless of huctua-
tions in rubber prices.
The growing practice Of re-
placing a considerable part
of the good rubber IN tires
with reclaimed rubber means
getting back to pre-war mile
age with greater cost to the
consumer in money and an
noyanCe.
You can't save rubber by
using less of it. The substi-
tuition OF cheaper compounds
for one third of the pure
rubber reduces the cost sew
eral dollars, but, by weaken
ing the entire structure, takes
out two thirds of the wear.
Everyone knows what hap
pens when cement is saved
by the use of more sand in
the batch. The principle is
the same whether it is tires
or towers that tOtter. The
way to save rubber is to make
tires wear longer by using
enough of it.
With plenty of good rubber
it is -.nsound manufacture
ing and poor service to the
public to use less Of it in tires.

Car Economy

The saving to the life Of the

not only to Generals low
pressure protection of body and
mechanical parts, but also the

the tires, which makes every

count for the most and GETS it
over the hills with the least
effort. Ii adds months and even
years to the life of the motor
itself.
