The rubber in the rubber band, the heel on your shoe, or the treads on your tires are not just simple vul- canized mixtures of rubber and sul- phur. The compounds are complicated, they have long since passed from the stage of simplicity which they oc- cupled practically until the develop- ment of the automobile got under wi “Three years prior to that, when we laid the first Rickenbacker chassis on the drawing board, we included brakes on all four wheels, “I had just returned from Europe and, after driving cars so equipped, I was even then convinced that the public would soon force manufac. turers to adopt this extra safety factor, fowever, the American manufac turer is always more interested in the elimination than in the addition of parts, and competition is so keen that he hesitates to adopt anything that will increase the price. “As a matter of fact, the large per- ntage of American cars are bought on a price basis rather than on the grounds of performance. This puts @ premium on the elimination of some things the buyer has not yet learned to prize, but which the manufacturer himself knows should be incorporated in the product. “It ca'led for a good deal of courage on our part to take a position so far in advance of the rank and file of manufacturers, espectally as are a young with only about we concern wood, Deeply cushioned seats and ample fooe The wheelbaee of 131 inches, with enub- comfors In addition to this fine car ex- letely equipped with all and safety for which Pe eally pay additional.

This is a familiar ap) plication .of the principle which we are now applying,to the automobile— utilization of every point of contact of the wheel with tne road, “The average person imagines that} if you would only make the brakes twice as large they would be twice as effective. “On the contrary, on a properly de- signed car the engireer has put the maximum of friction area to compen: | sate for the weight of that particular car. “One square inch more would duce the efficiency just as much as/ one square inch less would do. “All youf brakes can do-is stop the two wheels—the amount of fric tion these two tires exert on the road is the limit of your braking capacity “But when we came to apply brakes to the front wheels we encountered several new probler “First, the brakes must re-} never in the fact] (a0. | longing lit keeps the two} when the strain is distributed ove four tires instead of two, there is more ‘strain on the rubber when stopping in half the distance and half the time. “Perhaps the greatest pleasure de rived from 4-wheel brakes is in th fact that, with less than half the ex eration you can come to a velvety pause in the same time or distance that you have been accustomed to, and you always have that wonderful feeling of tranquility that comes from the knowledgé that, ny reasonabe speed, you can stop your car in almost its own length. As I have previously intimated, be cause of the fact that the stresses distributed over twice as many P —tires, axels, spring differential and univeral joints, etc—there is only half the strain on each and therefore the total life of the car is prolonged. “For this same reason, the car wil! actually run ten times as many miles without requiring adjustment as when the tremendous strain and high de: two brakes instead of four. “There are many other advantages which are not so readily explained but which in a ten minute ride, the experienced motorist will discover for himself.
