Change in Design

The new tire was unveiled
Yesterday by Goodrich at a press
preview given at the Detroit
Athletic Club. A sample was on
display and showed a change in
design, both as 10 tread and
carcass.
The tread is wider and rolls
more fatty along the road. This
makes for more uniform wear.
Carcass strength is increased by
using new and stronger cotton
cord and increasing the number
of cords in the plies.
The synthetic itself is claimed
to be an improvement on the
GR-S previously used. 1t is GR-S
10. which has a pine resin base
instead of fatty-acid soap as the
emulsifying agent. This type syn
thetic was announced by Good
rich in June and since then tires
made of il have been undergoing
tests.

Weather
HitSTrade

Warm weather for the season,
rain, transportation difficulties
and unfavorable employment sit
uation are factors which strongly
influenced purchasing at retail in
the Detroit area during the cur
rent week and reports in general
were less favQrable than for a
considerable period, Dun e. Brad
street reports.
All returns indicated a decline
in sales volume from the previous
week and with very few excep-
tionS totals were well below those
of the same week of 1914.
With the majority of depart
ment stores the drop in sales
from last year did not exceed 10
per cent, but one unit took a
much larger loss.
In speciality shops results lacked
uniformity but as a whole COM
parsons with earlier periods were
unfavorable. Apparel sales con-
tinued to make a good showing
but accessories failed TO show the
activity of year ago. a little
more interest than in recent
weeks was noted in furs.

Sears Holders
0. K. Stock Split

NEW YORK. Oct. 2-Stockhold-
ers of Sears Roebuck & Co. have
approved a 4-for-1 split of the
company's stock. The number of
authorized shares would be in
creased from 100000 to 24.000,-
600.
Shareholders of record at the
close of business last night will
receive certificate for three adj
ditional shares for each share held
On August 10 there there $780,
OBS shares outstanding. .-------..--
The management believes that
this step will result in a wider
distribution Of Sears Roebuck
shares thereby increasing the
public's interest in the company's S
business The stock split will not
affect the capital or surplus of
the company.

GMC Plans Meetings

Invited TO series of factory
conducted conferences, starting

Little. general sales manager of
the division. Little estimated
there would be about 169 of
these meetings.
Nine groups of factory sales
and service officials will present
programs, Little stated. He re-
vealed that while production has
been limited so far, schedules
have recently been raised and
production in the last quarter is
expected to be higher than the
best prewar rate.
Next year. Little predicted,
truck volume viii be the great

Show New Tire

According 10 T.. A. HolSten,
district manager for B. F, Good
rich Co. you will soon be able
10 buy synthetic tires which viii
outwear the prewar crude rub
Der tires. And what's more, un-
der similar conditions of travel.
This means you will be able
10 drive a car equipped with
Goodrich's Silvertowns made OF
synthetic at the same speeds,
summer or winter that you
could with the natural rubber
tires.
This is a startling claim made
for the tires. Heretofore the best
that tire engineers would say
for their tires is that they we're
nearly as good" as prewar tires
but AT moderate speeds.

1914 Seen Peak

Howard Stoddard. president
of the Michigan National Bank,
offers an interesting analysis of
bank profits and, in doing so,
points out that for all insured
commercial banks they amount
10 only Go per cent over the
last 10 years.
He feels that earnings prob
ably hit their peak in 1914
when they reached 94 per cent
on total capital funds and that
future earnings will be adversely
affected by 4. a ieveling off of
deposits, 2 lower interest rates
on loans and investments, 3.
increased taxation as the pro-
portion of tax exempt securities
decline, and 4. increased oper-
.ating expenses.
At the same time he contends
that an overall increase in cap
italiZation is unnecessary be-
cause. although the ratio of
capital funds TO deposits has
dropped from 10 z in 1885 10
the present ] TO IS, due 10 the
high proportion of government
bond investments the ratio 10
risk assets is unchanged.

After 1000 separate tests on

ance TO crack growth and carcass
separation. 1t runs cooler than
