In other words, if @ tube has given a reasonable| amount of service, 1s it better econ- omy to replace it with a new tube? I have a new tube which after a short period wed several large pinches, This was due to the tube measuring several inches larger than the marked size. If this tube gives way at ono of these creases, will it not destroy the casing? Would it be safer to dis- | card such a tube? Woull be glad to eee your answer to this question. A. L.

An old tube might last, but in the event of its tearing or) aplitting, the shoe would probably be) damaged before the car could be| brought to a stop.
