TIRE-TESTINC
FLEET In EAST
u. s. Rubber Company's We
hicles Return From
Arizona Tour

DETROIT, Aug. 3.-With three
quarters Of a million miles rolled
off during the winter and spring
over the tough, gritty roads Of Ari-
IONA, the travelling grounds"
as the t~ire-testing fleet of the Unit
ed States Rubber company Is
known, has returned north and Is
now covering some 800 miles a day
over Michigan highways.
Heat and gritty roads are the
worst enemy of rubber. This Is why
Arizona is chosen for driving dur
ing the winter. In summer, when
the mercury gets up around 80 or
90 in Michigan,Ghe fleet Is brought
home where results of the tests can
be studied close at hand, for the
company's largest tire factory and
its tire development division are To-
Gated in Detroit
The fleet at present consists of
more than a tcore OF motor vehi-
cles. ranging from the small light
cars to big trucks, and shows by
actual driving just what tires will
do. The drivers take the same
curves that the average motorist
takes and drive over the same hills,
and at the average speed. They jam
on the brakes and step on the gas
in a manner of the hardest" driver
and then check up to see If the tire
is standing up"
On these travelling proving
grounds tires of every description
are used. Each n, mt the tires ere
carefully measured and the amount
Of wear recorded. Also they are
are examined for cracks. rim cuts
and bruises. Th-5e records are then
available for study by the enginee--
ing staff.
Road tests are made Of different
kinds of treads o. one tire. For
example. a special tire is made up
with half Of its surface in o. tread
and half IN another. or one half is
made up of one KIM rubber and
the other of another kind. Each
half is then compared to see If the
new is an improvement over the
old.

SIX CYLINDERS
PROMISE GAIN
Chevrolet Survey S2W~s
Fours May Drop Lead
In Years Total

DETROIT, Aug. 3.-For the first
time in automobile industry six-cyl-
inder cars promise to lead the field
In production this year, according
to q survey computed by the Che
vrolet Motor company. Up until
this year four-cylinder car liked
first in annual production volume.
Comparative production figures
for the first six months "a this year
are offered in support of the FORE
cast. During this period there were
produced approximately 100000
skies as compared with approxi-
mately 1865. 900 fours, an indica-
ton OF what the total for the year
Is apt 20 be.
How the change comes about is
illustrated in the survey. Chevro-
let's manufacturing goal for the
year Is 1.350.000 cars. Chevrolet's
change-over from q four ? a six
means a deduction of tn enormous
total from the four-cyli Ter field
and adds 1t to the Six-cylinder field.
How the automobile picture has
changed almost overnight. II will be
noted Il. an inspection OF the 1928
showing. Last year when Chevro-
let was producing a four-cylinder
car. four-cylinder manufacturers
built approximately 10000 srs.
AS IL now stands the year 1929
should show approximately 100000
six-cylinder units as compared to
only 2-250.000 four-cylinder units.
Conse. uently this significant de-
velopment, which VII make the
current year an epochal one III the
annals Of the automobile business,
comes about chiefly RS re- :lt Of
the entranc, Of Chevrolet into the
siX-cylinder acid. IN lay circles, this
e-ent Is seen as a tribute 10 the
automobile i.duStry and the newest
step which this gigantic business
has taken In the direction O fAnn-
stantly offering its patrons mol8lu-

prices had been established in the early

per cent of the total transactions of
$57,000,000 were in bonds of the eX-

The two telephone issues started Off
with a rush. American Telephone &
Telegraph AIS touched l50ls. a rise of
2 points from Saturdays closing and
of over 80 points from the low of the
year. Later they reacted. Interna-
tional Telephone AIS ran up 2l2 points
to l66, where they met heavy realizing
sales, as they had had an advance of
over Sc points from their quotation of
last January. They also lost ground
and at one time showed a net decline
for the day of 215 points. Later both
telephone issues made another upward
squirt.
Some Issues Heavy.
The Allegheny Corporation S. Amer
lean International 5l2s, American I. G..
Chemical 51as, AtchiSon 4l2s and Mis-
souri, Pacific SIS were all heavy, fol-
lowing the steady tone shown at the
opening. On the other hand, Philadel-
phia & Reading 6S gained 3l2 points,
with a recovery of over points from
their lowest on the news that the COM
pany is to generate power by the burn
ing of pulverized coal. This gives it
semi-public utility status and furnished
more popular appeal for its securi-
ties.
There was some covering in the
bonds of the various Cuban sugar
producing companies with gains of / ! 2
to 2 points in Cuba Sugar Cane SIS,
Cuban-Dominican 7l2s, and Magagi
Sugar tbs. This is the first general
rally they have had in some weeks

ownership which has been in effect
since 1921. Chicago Great Western As,

Wabash 4l2s and Seaboard Air Line
adjustments we're fractionally higher.
In spite of the easier money rates
and the satisfied attitude of Wall
Street toward the immediate money
outlook, there were no signs of in
creased buying of high-grade mortgage
bonds but continuation of demand
for short municipals and corporation
bonds and notes were dull and steady.
Foreign Group.
The strongest of the foreign list was
the French government per cent
issue, which sold at the best of the
year. The German Iron e. Steel Co.
bonds have made good recovery dur
ing the past week. Japanese issues
were firm. There was further selling
of Kreuger e. Toll SIS at discount of

NEW YORK, July 8.-John D. Rock
efeller turns in record score today.
He enters his ninety-f1rst year. His
health is better than it was 80 years
ago, when, as head of the Standard Oil
Co. of New Jersey, the company was
dissolved by the Government and forced
to disintegrate.
Living at Tarrytown, N. Y, not far
from the modest farm in Richford,
Tioga County, where he was born, he
has seen the country move OH from the
days of candle light and kerosene lamp
into this amazing age of electricity and
machinery.
But it disturbs him little. He has given
away over 100000 900. founded the
great University of Chicago and has
supported the cause of education and
pubic health more effectively than any
man who ever lived.
And yet Mr.. Rockefeller is not col
lege man. never was a hard worker at
any time, nor socially ambitious. Nor
did he attempt to make valuable bust
ness contacts in building his fortune
all of them considered by many as eS-
Sential to success today.
A great change has taken place in
public opinion about Mr.. Rockefeller in
the last 80 years. Then no man in
America was more haraSsed in a pub
lie way. The years have melloWed
both.
He enters the last 10 years of his
century already world historical char
acter, in excellent health, mentally and
physically.
Ramsay Macdonald. British Labor
leader, and Charles Dawes. American
banker, are clearing the decks for real
action on armament reduction.
Just before this Scotch Labor leader
took over the reinS of the British gov
eminent he made the statement that
until the issue of the freedom of the
seas" was settled "AnglO-American CO.
operation in world affairs cannot be
securely founded"
The British Labor party's program
stands for the abandonment of the age
old traditional British policy of sea
blockade, to which the United States
has always objected.
Now Ramsay Macdonald wants to
not only move much further in the
direction of Anglo-American comfy, in
which naval parity will be maintained,
but a serious attempt may be expected
in clearing up disputed points which
have prevented world naval reductions
during the last few years.
In this column before We have en-
phasized the importance Of the salts
factory adjustment of the freedom of
the seas" 1t largely rests with Great
Britain. Her industrial power and
wealth came TO her largely through her
ability TO protect her trade. Up to this
time there has been no such thing in
the industrial world as freedom of the
seas" Much has been said about it,
but it has never been reality. espe-
cially when the blockades of war begin.
There is no question that the Labor
government of Britain. anxious to re-
duce the tax burdens of the people, is
tackling the biggest job that any gov
eminent has tackled.

attempt he will have made one Of the
