As you roll along the highway al the present-day touring speed of g mile a minute, you give scarcely 2 thought to the fact that an inch oi rubber, frequently less, separates you from disaster and possible death. Your carefree attitude is bred of experience, for you have learned that you can trust the modern high-quality automobile tire to hold its burden of aid and thus carry you safely to your des- tination, just as you trust the loco motive wheel, held on its track by narrow flange of steel, not to go astray. Yet, a locomotive now and then jumps the track, and failure of an automobile tire is not an unheard-of incident. Why is this?
 Before looking for an answer, consider the inch of rubber.
 Into that flexible wall goes more engineering, more headaches and science and sweat, than into almost any other similar amount of ma terial you can imagine. The hea1 developed in a year by the slide rules of engineers who must in- prove automobile tires so they can withstand increasingly severe pun- ishment probably would vulcanize a good many tires. Tire engineers forever are racing with motor ear engineers. Improvements in tires sometimes have to wait until auto- mobile development catches up, and sometimes it is the other way around. But in the end 1t is the riding public that wins-the car owners who buy some 50,000, 0,000 tires year.
 To put finger on the biggest step towards perfection of that rubber inch is not always an easy matter. More often it Is 8 matter of adding together a great many little improvements-a better tire compound here, heat-resisting ply there, and so on.
 Perhaps the most notable advance fin tires found on 1887 motor cars is. the reducing of wheel diameters with proportionate increase in tire cross section. Several years ago, II inch wheels were common, while this year, the 16 inch wheel is found on practically all leading car makes and models, with one notable exception. The tires circumference has not been changed. The larg- CT tire cross section, made possible by the reduction of wheel diam eter, produces, among other ad-

FAMOUS HARLEM LABOR
LEADER DEAD

New York (C)-Ira F. Kemp, 35,
native of Macon, Ga, and famous
organizer of the Harlem Labor
Union, Inc, was found dead of a
heart attack, lying across his bed
at 2047 Seventh avenue early Fri
day morning. Kemp had been
warned by his physician the day be-
fore to "take it easy" but con-
tinued active throughout that day,
and died about 2 a. m. that night.
Kemp's last notable stand was in
his race for the Assembly on the
Republican ticket, when he lost by
2O3 votes to Robert w. Justice in
the 10Th district on November 2.
Kemp rose to prominence mainly
through his stepladder campaign
on Harlem streets, urging Negroes
to boycott stores which refused to
employ colored clerks. Funeral
services were held from Abyssinian
Baptist Church Tuesday evening,
Rev. A. C. Powell, Jr., Rev. A. C.
Garner, and Bishop R. C. Lawson
officiating. The body was shipped
to Macon, Ca, for burial.
