Goodyear Prices It is Folly Today to Pay More 30x3 Plain Trend ... .811.70 30x3Y, “ AR L Y 34x4 . 24.35 36 x 41, . 35.00 37x5 There exists now a new, compelling reason for buying Goodyear tires. It re- sults from War conditions. These leading tires—built of extra-fine rubber, in the same way as always—are uflmg today at June prices. You will find today a very wide differ- ence between most tire prices and Good- years. Due to Quick Action Early in August—when war began— the world’s rubber markets seemed c]osed to us. Rubber prices doubled almost over night. Men could see no way to pay for rubber abroad, and no way to bring it in. We, like others—in that panic—were forced to higher prices. But we have since' gone back to prices we charged before the war, and this is how we did it: We had men in London and Smgapo-e when the war broke out. The larger part of the world’s rubber supply comes through there. We cabled them to buy up the pick of the rubber. They bought —before the advance—1,500,000 pounds of the finest rubber there. Nearly all this‘is now on the way to us. And it means practically all of the exira- grade rubber obtainable abroad. THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY, Akron, Ohic ires. at ‘ar Prices Today we have our own men in Colom- bo, Singapore and Para.” Those are ihe world’s chief sources of rubber. So we are pretty well assured of a constant sup- ply, and our pick of the best that’s pro- duced. We were first on the ground. We were quickest in action. As a result, we shall soon have in storage an almost rec- ord supply of this extra grade of rubber. And we paid about June prices. Now Inferior Grades Cost Double About the only crude rubber available now for many makers is inferior. ‘In or- dinary times, the best tire makers refuse it. Much of it had been rejected. But that “off rubber” now sells for much mose than we paid for the best. The results are these: Tire prices in general are far in advance of Goodyears. And many tire makers, short of supplies, will be forced to use second-grade rubber, o Be Careful Now In Goodyears we pledge you the same- grade tire as always. And that grade won for Goodyears the top place in Tiredom —the largest sale in the world. And, for the time being, our prices are” the same as before the war. We shalj try to keép them there. We accept no excessive orders, but dealers will be kept supplied. And we charge them, until further notice, only ante-bellum prices. That means that Goodye-u—the best tires built—arc selling way below other -~ tires. ,Remarkable Values In Women's Ready-to-Wear.
