tion pressure or any other factors investigated. Wear on thé most abrasive surfaces was four times as much at 65 as at 35 miles an hour. Stop-and-go tests, simulating heavy traffic con- ditions, showed an extremely high rate of wear even though the surfaces had minimum abrasive char- acteristics. It was found that wheels out of alignment created a continuous braking effect which in extreme cases caused tires to wear at 10 times the normal rate. Tires on rear wheels wore from 30 to 100 percent faster than those on front wheels, and those on right wheels 10 percent faster than those on left The report shows that careful attention by the car owner to such measures as repair of minor in- juries, inflation, etc., contribute more to the life of a tire than good repair on roads and streets. Above all, it shows in facts that it is the patriotic d\;ky of every driver in Alm;kn to observe the 35- “The stars "whne mile-an-hour speed limit as his contribution toward 9y ey, { but do not compel £ b e ) WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20 This is an unimporiant day in planetar ction.
