RACE CARS PUT
TIRES TO TEST
—•—. . |i
Drivers Choose Tires With
Greatest Care Before
Indianapolis Race
-•- l
“There is not an engineer in a |
thousand that will believe that tires
smoke at modern racing speeds—un
less he has seen it,’’ says E. Waldo
Stein, veteran Firestone racing tire
expert, who has devoted his time to 1
the speedways since the early clays, |
when he rode at Indianapolis. “Yet
I can take the engineers around and j
show them tires smoking almost any 1
time, from tire tread grinding on the I
track."
The spectators at the great Indian- ,
apolis race, May 30, will see the usual
haze of smoke hovering above the
track, and few will stop to consider
that any part of the smoke might be
due to any other cause than exhaust
fumes however, if they were to look
closely as the cars negotiate the turns
they would no doubt see smoke rising
from the brick track in back of the
whirling right rear tire of some of
the fastest cars. Traveling 140 miles
per hour, or faster, on the straight
aways, the cars go into the turns with
a terrific thrust on the tires. This
continues mile after mile over the
hot brick.
Mr. Stein has a keen eye and is al
ways on the look-out. He seems to
have every car, every driver, and ev
ery tire in his mind’s eye. The driv
ers constantly consult him with their
problems. He is a great lover of
racing and is a member of the AAA
•contest boards.
He has in his collection of racing
pictures a recent photograph with a
cloud of smoke rising from the tires,
to illustrate his point.
“I have had racing drivers come to
me many times the first time they
noticed their tires smoking. No less
a racing driver than Bob McDonough,
known for his daring on the speed
vays, stopped one of his practice n;
minds and hurried to me, badly wor- I
ied by the smoking of his rear tires. I*j
miglit add that it takes heat to pro- yi
luce smoke, and it takes real tread tl
itock nad real tire construction to I b
itand that kind of treatment.” |
The drivers choose their tires with 0
•xtreme care and for the Indianapolis ;r
race practically every driver insists tl
upon Firestone Tires. Likewise, in |
other championship races throughout J
the country, on dirt tracks as well as (]
urick, Firestone Tires are on the win- j F
(ling cars. v
Cantaloupes, Cucumbers, jo
Etc. Do Not Mix in Field !'t'
-i a
Cantaloupes, cucumbers, squash and j
and other crops of like nature may i J
be planted side by side in the same
field without danger of mixing. The I f
only crop that will mix is the pump- c
kin and that will mix only with the j
summer squash, which is really a true j
pumpkin. Different varieites of these
crops, however, will cross and, if seed
is to be saved for future plantings, it
is best to grow only one variety in ^
any one field. I

Notice to
Voters
I wish to thank the voters of Washington County for their loyal
support of me in the Democratic primary June 2.
My plu ality over Mr. E. L. Owens in our contest for represen
tative to the General Assembly was 167. Mr. Owens, Mr. J. C. Gat
lin, and myself had a mutual agreement whereby the high man would
be the nominee. Contrary to this agreement, he (Mr. Owens) has
asked for a second primary.
This second primary will be held on June 30, and I will appre
ciate again the loyal support of the voters.
Also I would like to take this occasion to refute the rumor that
has been maliciously circulated in this county that I was against the
welfare of the farmer. 1 positively deny it. And moreover, I pledge
to do all I can to help the farmer, if nominated and elected.

hiVERY winner in the 500-Mile Indianapolis Race — tlie most
gruelling tire test in the world — drove to victory on Firestone High
Speed Tires. What a tribute to the Extra Strength, Extra Safety, and
Blowout Protection of Firestone Tires!
Race drivers know tire construction. They know that heat generated
by friction inside the cotton cords that make up the body of the tire,
is the greatest enemy of tire life. These men will not risk their lives
and chance of victory on any but Firestone Tires, because they know
the high stretch cords in every Firestone Tire are protected from
friction and heat by the Firestone patented process of Gum-Dipping.
Gum-Dipping is the exclusive Firestone Process which soaks the high
stretch cords in liquid rubber and saturates and coats the millions of I
fibers inside the cords, counteracting destructive friction and heat. *
Gum-Dipping provides greater adhesion not only between the plies jj
that compose the body of the tire, but between the Gum-Dipped cord I
body and the tread.
Just as automobile manufacturers have used the Indianapolis |
Speedway — the greatest testing laboratory in the world — for the i
development of greater power and speed in automobiles, so have k
Firestone chemists and engineers kept pace with these improvements ]
by building stronger, safer tires to meet these exacting demands. If
your tires are thin and smooth — drive in today and equip your car
with new Firestone High Speed Tires for 1934, with deeper, thicker,
flatter, and wider non-skid tread, more and tougher rubber, more
traction, giving you more than 50% longer non-skid mileage.
Remember, the racing speeds of yesterday are becoming the road
speeds of today, and in Firestone High Speed Tires there is Greater
Strength—Greater Safety—and Greater Blowout Protection than in
anv tire made.

Note how the rubber in a Firestone Tire
clings to the high stretch Gum-Dipped cords.
This greater adhesion and strength is made
possible by the Firestone patented process
o£ Gum-Dipping.
Note how the rubber in an ordinary tire
pulls away from the cords that have not
been soaked and insulated with rubber.
This causes friction and heat within the
cords, resulting in separation.
