to
tional payroll. The program is being sponsored bv the Rubber Manufacturers’ AsA. L. Viles, association president, in notices to tire dealers, estimated that between 50 and | 60 million tires will have outlived | their usefulness this year. He said that replacement of these tires would result in a sales total of about $500.000. Art Rose. president of the Rose | Tire Co. 930 N. Meridian St, MilJer Tires distributor, said that excellent response to the campaign was expected here.
Trade In Accepted
“Motorists here not only been interested in the safety angle | presented by the campaign,” he | said, “but also in the trade-in al- | lowances for their old tires being | offered in connection with this spe- | cial tire week. | “public officials who have to deal | with the traffic problem every day in this locality have given their | support to the effort to make everyone realize the dangers a herent in poor automobile tires.” He said that Miller Tire manufacturers have for many years been leaders in urging safety on the | highwavs and have developed tires designed especially for safe opera- | tion. | F. H. Clark, Indianapolis Good- | vear Service Stores manager, said that a car equipped with Goodyear Lifeguards is in no danger when a | tire is punctured. Mr. Clark said that a Lifeguard is a two-ply tire placed within a regular tube to which it is joined | at the base. He explained that when the tube | Is deflated suddenly, a tiny vent | allows the air to pass slowly from | the reserve tire of the Lifeguard which meanwhile supports the car, giving the driver ample time to stop.

Obsolete Route Markings Scored
Times Special WASHINGTON, May 13. —Declaring that tourists are dissatisfied with the “inadequate and obsolete” system of route marking, American Automobile Association officilas said that affiliated motor clubs in all parts of the country are co-op-erating in an effort to obtain improvements Russell E. Singer, A. A. A. peneral manager, said that motorists had made complaints of all kinds. Motorists’ comments, he said, were that in country districts highway numbers are often too far apart and not properly placed. Another complaint was that there is too much confusion between State and Federal numbers and that often a single standard carries a long list of numbers which are hard to decipher. Another complaint was that some states detours are marked poorly and ‘that the motorist is shunted from the main highway and left to find his way back, Mr. Singer said that there is need for a system that will indicate direction so the motorist will know exactly which way to turn at an intersection.
