highways, you may have to wait long
time, according to a forecast made by
K. L. Larson, editor of the Mountain
Lake Observer and vice chairman Of
the "Save 100 Lives" Committee of
the Minnesota Editorial association.

run for perhaps year, maybe two.
but as the tires wear out, there will
be increasing danger of accidents due
to the increased hazard of mishaps
caused by tire failure" he predicted.
