WORLDS LONGEST PHONE LINE

Two long distance telephone
circuits recently opened between
New York and Los Angeles, a
distance of 3.4l2 miles, consti
tute the longest direct telephone
circuits in the world and repre-.
sent one of the latest achieve.
ments of telephone engineers.
Up to this time, calls between
the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
had to be switched at Chicago.
The new direct line goes through
Chicago to st. Louis and thence
over the southern continental
line to Los Angeles. Telephone
repeaters boost the current at
various points, so that it is al
most as easy to telephone from
coast to coast as it is to tele.
phone across a street.

TIRES PROVE
BIG FACTOR
ord Chooses Rubber
That Can Stand a
Hard Grind

one OF the, problems which de-
manded most careful study and ex-
aaustive experimenting in the build
ing and equipping tho new Model
a Ford car was that Of tires.
The new Ford was an entirely
new a in sits class. wit. power,
speed and acceleration that were
also new TO the field or light, mod
crate priced cars. The very first
test models of the car proved that
tires which could be counted upon

= Ford must be larger. tougher and
better able in every way to with
stand wear. heat from road friction
ara ordinarily damaging action Of
pumps, ruts and other Uneven road
surfaces upon the tread and the
Sidewalk of the tire.
To begin with, these tires with
which all Model A Fords are equip
ped, while designated as 3Ox4.5O in
size, actually give an effect equal
70 that Of tires measuring 30xI.75,
"hen fitted to the special drop
center spoke wheels Of the car.
n designers of the Model A
Ford realized that this car would
go into many parts Of the world
and find many varied road condi-
lions. So the tires with which the
first few test moels Of the new car
were equipped were subjected to ev-
cry possible type Of service and
from these tests Ford engineers
were able to determine specifica-
tious that would produce a truly
modern balloon tire with all the ex-
celience of design, workmanship and
material TO insure its giving a SER
vice on "A par with that Of the
Model A car itself.
Tires for the Model A Ford are
made by several of the best manu-
facturers Of the country, but every
tire must meet those specifications.
The rubber which goes into each Of
these tires must be of the finest
grade, new. live rubber that has
been properly cured. Just so much
Of this rubber. 10 within a fraction
OF an ounce-and no less-must be
used. The cotton from which the
cord is manufactured must be of

and durable. And each lot OF tires
received at the Ford assembly, line
must first be carefully inspected
and tested to SEQ that they meet
these specifications and that there
are no flaws or defects in tread,
Sidewalk OF shoulder.
In testing sample tires from lots
delivered to the assembly lines. the
Ford Motor company subjects them
IN many instances to treatment they
will never receive at the hands Of
the average owner. One OF the test
ing devices drops the tire from n
height OF several feet. under a
weight equivalent to that of a fully
loaded car. upon a section Of steel
similar TO those at a railroad cross
ing. Tires are also placed on test
cars and operated over rough roads
at below normal pressures over
gravel, crushed stone and through
sand and mud. For Ford engineers
have determined there shall be no
chronic troubles in the tires Of the
Model A Ford.
