THURSDAY, AUGUST 16, 1928 ‘DIRT FARMER’ IS FOR HOOVER ON EXPERIENCE Towan Willing to Risk Welfare ef His Farm Under Nominee Aurora, Ill, Aug. 16—()—James R. Howard, of Clemons, Iowa, a “dirt farmer” and past president of the American farm bureau _feder- ation today said at the Central States fair and exposition that he supported the candidacy of Herbert Hoover for the presidency because “Hoover has handled 10 billion dol- lars worth of farm products, more than the gross returns from _ all farms of America in any year since the World war with less than ove- half of one per cent overhead and accounted for every dollar.” “I am an Iowa farmer and have no investment or income other than that derived from my farm,” said. “Without reference to issues or platforms, I propose to tell you why I would rather risk the welfare of my farm, under the direction of a man with Hoover’s experience than under the leadership of a man whose sole experience in production has been votes and whose studies in distribution problems have been ecn- fined to the spoils of office.” “It is generally conceded the three major basic industries are agricul- ture, mining and forestry and that the applied economies of production and distribution of all are practically parallel. Is Problem Master “Hoover succecded in mining. His activities extended throughout the world. He became a master of the problems of production and distri- bution. “When the World war broke out, Hoover's first act was to enable 165,000 American citizens stranded] © i ‘ope to get home. Later he assumed control of Bel- gian relief and official records show he handled 5,100,946 tons, equiv- alent to 1,000 shiploads, of farm products in saving the Belgians. In terms of money they amounted to $923,303,834. That was the largest experience in handling farm prod- ucts that any one man had ever had “Hoover was called home to put his experience to the use of his own government and became virtually dictator of food resources of his own as well as other countries. “All students of the agree that it was marshalling of the farm situation that was the deciding factor in ending the World war months earlier than was expected.” Howard also touched upon relief work by Hoover in Austria, Ger- many, Hungary, Poland, the Balkans and Russia. “In this phase of Hoover's work. he met successfully farm marketing and distribution problems. A broad experience was added to accurate knowledge of farm affairs. The hope of solution of the farm question rests with Hoover. He is not merely an efficiency expert. He has ® great and a warm heart.” Senator Locher Has 134 Lead Over Hunt Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 16.—(AP)— Senator Cyrus Locher, Cleveland, Who Is Your ‘Skinny Friend, Ethel?

ABLE ALLOWANCE ON THE PURCHASE OF A NEW TIRE,” The manufacturers listed below, who produce over 95% of the tires made in America, guarantee tires bearing their names and serial numbers against defects for the entire life of the tires eK... familiar with tire history will remember the early experimental days when the only way a manufacturer could express his confidence in his product was by offering a definite mileage guarantee. They will recall how, due to misuse, the definite figure inevitably was pushed beyond all sensible bounds. As tires improved in quality the whole theory and practice of “definite mileage” commitments was pushed into the back- ground and finally rejected by standard tire companies as unfair and uneconomi- cal to the tire-user. Director General, THE RUBBER INSTITUTE, Incy It had proved itself to be fundamen- tally unsound. Its abuse by unscrupulous drivers con- fronted the manufacturer with the alter- natives of higher prices or lower quality to meet the added costs of unjustified allowances. Perhaps its most unfair feature was that it benefited the driver who misused his tires and misrepresented his mileage: at the cost of the honest and careful driver. who did not abuse his tires. Its passing was welcomed by trade and public alike because it had come to be used as an unfair salesinducement rather than as a protection for the buyer.. The industry then shifted from the costly advertising of mileage claims tothe building of real: mileage into the tires. | As a result, tire values have steadily improved, to the benefit of all users alike, although prices are today the lowest | in history. The prevailing practice of these manu- facturers, who produce over 95% of the tires in the United States, is expressed by the broadest standard tire guarantee in the history of the industry. a ee eR ae ay ep en warrant tires bearing their names and serial temmtheen.n.

In case of the failure of the tire due to defect, no matter how far or how long that tire has traveled, fair and equitable adjustment will be made by the manufacturer on the basis of the tire's normal expectancy of service had the defect not appeared. It fe the intent and purpose of this warranty to assure the buyer a quality product capable of satisfactory performance, the responsibility for which the manufacturer of the tire hereby assumes. : —a guarantee sili in its protection to the individual, yet fairer in its operation to all, than anything now or ever placed before the public.
