Too much cannot be said about the part the average man must play in Tonserving our rubber supply. “True, we have a reserve pile, from which the government is drawing to supply our war machine with tanks and ships and planes. From this same supply we are send- ing tires and other rubber products to our allies. “But of equal importance is the rubber reserve in our tires. Because this is a war of productioh and one is just as important as the other. . . private car owners must join hands with truck owners to save our tires. “There is some indication on our (highways that certain motorists, at |least, are trylng td help. But the |great majority has not yet awak- lened to the fact that they, tho, are a part of the war effort. “The Department of Commerce |estimates that 75 per cent of our war workers must reach their benches and lathes by means of private conveyance. “These men are essential to our war building program and their cars must be kept rolling. Others, too, although not engaged in direct war work, are dependent upon their ness. “Our public street car and rail- cars for normal transaction of busi- way systems are already overtaxed and the tonnage carried by our trucks and busses cannot be pyr- amided upon the loads already be- ing transported by rail. ‘But, because there is so little romance and drama to the simple means of saving existing tires, the public has remained apathetic, “Experience in many yenrs of the chief contributing factcr to tire building has taught us that| tire wear is heat, and the major factor is creating heat is speed.
