CUSHION GUM BETWEEN BREAKER STRIP Tire Troubles Went Out, When CORD TIRES Came In! THIS IDEA SIMPLY HAD TO COME! | | Automobilists were experiencing too much grief. Undergoing too much worry and A\ ) meeting with too much trouble with the ordinary tire. Now comes along a : < “ genius, who shows us how CORD---an unbelievably STRONG CORD made up of long SEA ISLAND COTTON.---which produces the GREATEST STRENGTHENER yet put into an automobile tire. Note the Wonderful Construction. Each strand of cord has a breaking strain of over 72 pounds. 3% PLY CORD 2P OLY CORD, ENOLESS SPUN ON 1Y TRANSVERSE ~ LONGITUDINAL There are 10 of these to the inch, mak- BEAD, STRAIGHT OR CLINCHER TYPE ing a total of 720 pounds to the square inch. The three plys have a retaining power of 2160 pounds. NO BLOW-OUTS. KEY NOTE OF CONSTRUCTION. The endless longitudinal ply of cord; traction or driving strain from engine is absorbed; it forms a continuous bead or retaining means as the hoops on a barrel. MILEAGE—Body of the tire GUARANTEED 10,000 MILES---Tread Guaranteed 7,000 Miles. We will re-tread in our factory at a nominal cost. BLOW-OUTS—This is the only Pneumatic Tire absolutely GUARANTEED AGAINST BLOW-OUTS. The strength and resiliency of the cord has overcome the enemy of fabric tires. RIM CUTS—ELIMINATES 90 PER CENT OF THE RIM-CUT DEMON. The strength and resiliency of cord prevents breaking of sidewalls. The tire is built to carry about 20 per cent lower infla- tion than a fabric tire. PUNCTURES—The compact construction of the tire, STONE BRUISES—Using a cord tire at leas inflation an: the tightly twisted Sea Island cotton cord makes a hard (yet resilient) round surface that will glance off 9 out of 10 nails. d the RESILIENCE OF THE CORD take up the stone brvises and road shock---relieves wear and tear on car-—-and makes riding a pleasure. REPAIRS—The construction of the tire permits of an easy and permanent repair, as-cheaply as with fabric tires. Repairs on Twin Cify Cord Tires are few and far between.

He had made heavy financial sacrifices to accom- been assured he was to have consid- erable voice in directing its policies. |He had never, he declared, seen Ford for more than ten minutes at a time ~|and had had practically no influence. Many Resign From Party. Herban Bernstein, the New York Jewish editor, gave up his peace dele- gateship at Christiania and continued the journey merely as a chronicler, at Mrs. Inez Milhol- land Boissevain resigned from the party at Stockholm because she felt, she said, all attempts at democratic pany the expedition, he said, and had i control of the party had been aban- e doned. Governor Hanna of North Dakota, though professing to have left the expedition at Christiania for per- sonal reasons, said confidentially that it would cost him thousands of dol- lars to explain to his constituents his connection with such a party of “nuts.” Homes for Orphans. Judge Ben Lindsey and his wife succeeded in interesting Ford, early in the voyage, in a plan for finding homes for European war orphans. The management, then controlled by Peace Secretary Louis P.

Schwimmer, served notice shortly after Ford’s departure for home, that the steering committee would repudiate any subsidiary move- ment which did not have the com- mittee’s approval. Such approval was refused the Lindseys. Dean S. S. Marquis of Detroit, Ford’s close per- sonal friend, was not on good terms with Mmme. Schwimmer nor Loch- ner. It was the general impression that his influence was responsible for detaching Ford from the party. S. S. McClure was denounced by. the management and for his part spoke of the expedition’s management in terms of contempt. Differences were not forgotten when the party landed. The various splits widened. They were not the result merely of divergent views. They were due to petty rival- ries for control of the expedition, to individual ambitions and to the fail- ure of the greater number of the delegates to grasp the bigness of the Ford idea. not stick to his own ideal. A Succession of Errors. If the Ford expedition had failed with dignity it would not have been a failure. It would have been the highest spot in the history of altru- istic endeavor since the crucifixion. Nobody can appreciate what actually happened who has not actually been with the expedition from the first. No peace delegate is bold enough to deny that the expedition has been a succession of errors. At the close the expedtion was led by Gaston Plaintiff, Ford’s personal representative, a fat- jolly-faced gen- eral salesman of automobiles who knew all about Broadway but admit- ted he hadn’t the remotest idea of any peace plan’s meaning but was left by ‘“the old man” to do his best and meant to do it—whatever it was.
