An incal- calable loss in human life—lost time—perma- nent injuries. Untold added cost in hospital bills, wrecked cars, repairs and liabilities. What a terrific toll to pay when skid-safety costs so little! Now—with the new General Dual Balloon — every motorist can be safe from skidding. This is skid-safety with a new meaning! True, low air pressure makés the difference. See the accompanying chart. This tremen- dously reduced pressure, permitted by Blow- out-Proof patented construction, fulfills the highest purpose of pneumatic tires—to be soft—and safe! For softness is the thing that prevents skidding. It has far more to do with sure, safe traction than any tread design. Make a tire soft enough and you have that greatest of all road-gripping principles— flexibility inside and out that lets the whole cling on any road, regardless of wet pave- ments, snow or ice. That is why the General Dual Balloon— with the world’s lowest recommended air pressure—gives you skid-safety you will never know with stiff, unyielding tires. Let us equip your car now. Be prepared for the greatest security you have ever known in slippery weather. Enjoy, too, the surpass- ing comfort of the tire that puts a buffer be- tween you and the roughest roads—keeps your car quiet and new thousands of miles longer—makes broken roads and detours en- durable and good roads perfect. The Blow- out-Proof Dual Balloon challenges any com- parison—Blowout-Proof, skid-safe, easy riding that higher pressure tires can of car—come in and see yours.
