Tires That Stand Up
i The average car is called upon this year
to do more work and harder work than ever
before. ' '■ •• ■ •'*'. ’
Loads are bigger.' Trips more frequent.
More cccstant service is demanded. Tune

Now if ever, the car owner must select tire
* equipment wisely to get the greatest use of
Ids' car.
United States Tires are built up to the job.
They have reserve strength and endurance...
They have the stuff and workmanship in
them to stand up long after they have paid
for themselves in faithful service.
Whether your car is heavy or light, passen
ger car or truck, there is a type of United
States Tire scientifically made to fit your
needs, ' r ■ ‘
—to give you greater freedom from tire /
delays, */.. / ’
—to give extreme mileage at minimum
