I How can we make this sweeping promise? Well, just consider the facts : FACT 1 ? Written reports have been secured from over 1500 mo torists picked entirely at random except that all were testing various makes of tires opposite Michelins. 84% said they secured more mileage from their Michelins than from the other tires they were using. FACT 2 ? In Detroit, the home of the automobile, in a vote taken among all of the 984 tire dealers, more dealers voted for Michelin as the best tire than for any other make. FACT 3 ? During the past three years Michelin sales have grown three times as fast as the tire in dustry as a whole. Something more than words did that. FACT 4 ?Records covering over a million miles show that, on an av erage, Michelins give 36% more mileage than other tires. FACT 5? Back in 1895 Michelin was the world's first pneumatic auto tire. Today Michelin is still first, and over 25,000 tire builders are kept busy trying to supply the great world-wide demand for Michelins. o c- ft \ * But in addition to quality there's another factor ?
