May | SPECIAL TRADE-IN SALE Newver has there been such keen interest in tire value as demon- strated by the crowds attending this sale. The only sale of its kind ever put on by any tire store. Using less rubber means getting back to pre-war mileage By W. O'Neil, President of the General Tire and Rubber Company, Akron, Ohlo URING our Trade-in Sale they have come in dozens and by the score—the total will reach into the hundreds— and they are driving away on Generals to begin the longest, most enjoyable and economical mileage ever known in tires. In all our experience as tire dealers, never have car owners shown so clearly their belief in the upholding of quality and readiness to take advantage of a great selling event that combines at the same time the absolute assurance of longest possible wear in a tire. There has never been a time when quality in a tire meant more, when it would so greatlzepay the consumer to investigate and make sure of the dependability of his tire purchases. Read the comment of W. O'Neil, President of the General Tire and Rubber Company. General is making a fight for the continuance of quality, unadulterated, in tires—for, in view of the spreading use of .reclaimed rubber in tires, it would be easy for the industry to go back to pre-war mileage. We, as the exclusive distributors of General in this city, are celebrating our company’s remarkable stand in the interest of topmost quality. Much has been printed re- cently about the high price of rubber and the mnecessity for rubber conservation. This news has not only given the public an exaggerated idea of tire prices, but has sup- ported the claim that rub- ber can be saved by using less of it in a tire. When rubber is cheap, tire manufacturers generally use more of it. The necessity for using the same quantity of good rubber for the sake of long-wearing quality does not change regardless of fluctua- tions in rubber prices. The growing practice of re- placing a considerable part of the good rubber in tires with reclaimed rubber means getting back to pre-war mile- age with greater cost to the consumer in money and an- noyance. You con’t save rubber by using less of it. The substi- tution of cheaper compounds for ome-third of the pure rubber reduces the cost sev- eral dollars, but, by weaken- ing the entire structure, takes out two-thirds of the wear. Everyone knows what hap- when cement is saved by the use of more sand in the batch. The principle is the same whether it is tires or towers that totter. The way to save rubber is to make tires wear longer by using enough of it. With plenty of good rubber it is unsound manufactur- ing and poor service to the public to use less of it in tires. Knowing that no other tire on the market can compare with the service General delivers, we are featuring this Trade-in Sale in order that every car owner in the city will find it easy to get started on Generals and learn about them from personal experience. It is worth while to us because every new customer now will mean a permanent customer for us in the years to come. It is worth while to you because you can get Generals on your car without sacrificing a penny of the value of your old tires—and right now that value is at its peak. We are making it worth while to every car owner also increased the value of the tires already on your car. You can cash in that increased value by trading in those old tires now. And plus that, they have a special trade-in value with us if they are tires you put into use before last September. No matter how much or how little your present tires have been used, it will pay you to attend our Trade-in Sale. Now is the time to buy your General tires for the year. Our Trade-in Sale gives you an advan- tage over today’s tire prices. In this sale we offset the cost by mak- ing special allowances on your old tires. We are going to take into consideration the fact that when the high cost of rubber caused tire prices to rise, it “UNTZ” BREWER'’S TIRE AND SALES COMPANY 1537 14th ST. N.W. WASHINGTON, D.

Riding Comfort Unequaled Because of General’s low-pres- sure leadership in all sizes, both regulars and balloons, you really know the meaning of low-pres- sure comfort after you have taken your first ride on Gen- erals. Car Economy ‘The saving to the life of the motor and the car itself is due not only to General's low- pressure protection of body and mechanical parts, but also the minimum rolling-resistance in the tires, which makes every ounce of the motor’s power count for the most and gets it over the hills with the least effort. It adds months and even years to the life of the motor itself. Gasoline Saving Due to the same feature of less rolling-resistance, you save gaso- line when you ride on Generals. Sometimes the saving is as high as 20 per cent. Trade-In Your Tires for General 6-Ply Balloons Owners of the heavier cars now realize the tremendous advan- tages of the General 6-ply bal- loon—hundreds are , changing to this improved balloon tire.
