The sensational new Sufety-IxxJc Cord Body is the result of a new and revolutionary means of locking greater safety into the cord body of the tires. This is accomplished first, by the use of a new type of tire c^ord called “Safety-Lpck,” in which the cotton fibers are m,ore compactly interwoven to give greater strength. And then the fibers in each individual cord, the cords in each ply and the plies themselves are all securely locked together by a new and advanced Firestone process of Gum-Dipping, which provides amazingly greater strength — and greater strength means greater ^fety. The new Safety>Lock cord construction gives added strength that makes possH:^ tHe use of the new, thicker, tougher, rdeeper Firestone jGear'Grip Tread, which provides remarkably loiter* non>skid mileage.
