BIII ho IIIIIIIII IIiII IIII.I I have no laboratory data on the stepping distances for cars equi ped with brakes on all wheels, 'but I ave had this experienceâ€"a demonstra- tion. The car was speeded u to 30 miles an hour. As we crosse a line at that speed the brakes were. ap- plied. We came to a dead stOp in 18 fact according to the measurement of the local traffic officer who was witnessing the test. I think he was a little enthusiastic. I should be in- clined to think he hunched a ’little, and that it probably took us a dist- ance of '2?) feet to stop. l"erhaps,.als0 we were not quite touching thirty miles an hour--well. call it 25 miles an hour and we stopped in 2;") feet. Now look at the figures. A car properly braked on two wheels should llt‘ able to stop at 25') miles an hour in 58 feet. We have still. trying to be consmwative, gained an ad- .vautage of half the distance. ' No one could possibly calculate how much this new stopping ability will mean to the motorist and his pedestrian victim. It has been fig- ured out that the great majorityâ€"62 per Ct'lll,â€"-â€"Jt)f ail automobile acci- dents is caused by faulty brakes. It seems reasonahh’i to hope that if we. could suddenly equip the cars of the nation with more than twice the braking power they now have. we might reduce our accident rate (in- cidentally our insurance. rates. of course; by an amazing percentage. Not A Luxury. it does not make much ditl‘erence to any one who can afford it how much a luxury costs. But the au- tomobile has long passed out of the luxury class. A great architect re marked to me the other day that of course a house cannot be designed any more without a garage: “It’s just. as inlpOl'lillll. as a bathroom.” he said. And so we have come to see that perhaps the greatest cost of owning: a car is the cost of deprecia- tion. The first year it may go off 50 per cent. 11' you are not regarding your ca' as a lukury youmust take, ‘_ ___ -Vv u“--‘~-' a husinoss-liko attihfilo tnward it and Mmrgv 011' that (inprnciation and add it t0 your cast of transportation Via maul.

THE DURHAM CHRONICLE So picture the car with great tires on it, each tire soft enough to look almost like a puncture. Now get in to ride. Hit that curbstone at 30 miles an hour. 0n ordinary shoes your car would bounce like a tennis ball. The whole structure would he, strained and one of you passengers would probahy poke his head through the roof on the up journey and break his spine on the return trip, sutfering minor damages on the remaining up and down trips. But nothing like that happens with hal- loons on all four wheels. As a matter of fact the tires wrap them- selves around the rurhstone or the log: or the big rock you hit and at). sorh within themselves the energy that would otherwise throw you about. You can drive over the 01)- strurtion and actually not know you drove over it. It saVes the. passen- gers. It saves the car. The new tires need not cost much if any more than the old type, when nrass protlurtion starts. Tires are really sold by weight herause you are. buying a i'ahrieated set of raw materials. The makint.r rests no more, probably; the tires are larger hut no heavier. They have no more rotten and ranvas in them than the small tires we have been using for that weight of car. They will he very little it any more liable to The balloon tiro is first much lar- gm in soctin11..\ car using thr1111- i111l1 tires of the ordinary kind is 11quippcd with perhaps four and a half inch tires.

But the tire wears out very quickly if you do not pump it up hard. It still absorbs shocks but on the other “‘19.“ i! ign’t what .it {night be_. _ After all, with most of us, comfort seems all important, even in these days of regarding the automobile more and more as a necessity and less and less as a luxury. The third big step, which may or may not be featured at the 1924 shows, but a step which has nevertheless been taken. is of course the balloon tires. As has already been stated you can buy these tires from their makers lo-day. They are still a little bit experimental, but they are in daily use right now by hundreds of per- sons. I'll...
