Greater Mileage
at RequLar Balloon Pressure

There are more miles in the Dual-Balloon
than it was ever thought possible to build into
tire, yet it runs at regular balloon pressure.
.. Only the new Dual-Balloon principle
has made this possible.
Lately. in the tire industry, efforts to feature
big mileage have led away from the true pur-
pose of the balloon idea-back toward the old
standard of "high-pressure" or moderate
pressure" in tires.
But the new Dual-Balloon completely re-
verses that tendency. ;. With the Dual
Balloon you do not trade riding comfort"
for the added miles,
No tire of anything like its great mileage
capacity can offer its low-pressure advantage

In Pu1cture Freedom, Too,

In the early days of the four-ply balloon,

80 per cent by bringing out the six-ply. The
six-ply made a sweeping replacement of four
ply balloons on all but the smaller cars.
Now, the new Dual Balloon IS" carries
General farther ahead, transcending all pre-
vious high marks in carefree tire performance
-. Even the remote chance of puncture is
reduced to the vanishing point

It IS a tire that will not wear pfemature1y

permanence.
To those who have known the disappoint-
