P TIRES o« 51umuuummummmuumuunmmnmmmmmnfi tire to the rim. Firestone invented a new way—-which knocked the value out of the trust’s patents and developed into the straight-side tire used everywhere today. Henry Ford, just starting volume production, gave the first order for them. LATER. when all the rim patents were pooled in a trust. Firestone setup arim factory and broke the monopoly. Still later, when an inventor asserted a basic patent on all de- mountable rims and the manufacturers began to pay license fees, Firestone fought the claim from a nqw angle and proved it fraudulent. When, just a few years ago, the British rubber planters entered into an arrangement arti- ficially to raise the price of rubber Firestone almost alone and unaided fought the mon- opoly. ERESTONI did not fight these monopolies for the sake of fighting. They had to be fought because the Firestone policy demands that a tire price include materials, workmanship, a reasonable profit—and nothing else. ERE5T(JNE has defeated every monopoly. Firestone has done all the fighting but the fruits of victory belong to everyone. They have made every tire cheaper and save the public at least fifty million dollars a year. | STAN DING out against monopolies and high prices is a part of a great tradition—a tradi- tion which has been responsible for every notable advance in tire making. It is the tra- dition of leadership. The pressure is always to make tires that will more than meet every TUBES « BATTERIES need and give more value than money can be expected to buy. The obligation is absolute and admits of no compromise. THIS policy has created great resources. The resources give further and greater force to the policy. The rubber flows in Firestone hands from the trees, the fabric travels from the cotton fields through Firestone Mills— everything meets in Firestone Factories. At every point the control is Firestone’s. There are no outside profits. NO FIRESTONE Tire isexpensive. Thehigh- est priced are, in point of service, very cheap. But the objective of years has been to make a tire at a low price that would not compromise on design, material or workmanship. ’INHAT tire has now been made. Firestone now announces a new line of tires at prices only Firestone could make. They are Firestone Tires. They are sold as Firestone Tires. And they are sold by dealers who are trained and whose service stores are equipped to ensure that each tire bearing the name Firestone ful- fills its obligation. ' THED'E tires are now with Firestone Dealers. Ask to see the Firestone line of Anchor Double-Breaker Gum-Dipped Balloons. BRAKE LINING Copyright, 1730, The Pirestone Tire & Rubber Co.
