CLARK, Times Bultding, New York | We Built and Sold 100,000 Double- Cable - Base Tires Before We Told You acted fer, About Them E BUILT and sold 40,000 before we told the trade about them. We felt sure this new construction was better than anything that had been done before, and we wanted to know just how much better it was. Last May the first Double-Cable-Base tires were shipped from the Federal factory. Thousands were sold during the summer. By August we began receiving the most favorable comments from Federal users and Federal dealers. Just voluntary comments on the splendid service Federal Tires were giving. They said Federal Tires showed no rim- cutting, no side-wall blow-outs just above the rim, no tube-pinching, no slipping from the rim. Federal users were experiencing none of these common, costly and dangerous tire troubles, but they didn't know why, Well this was why, They were using Double-Cable-Base tires, the new construction that makes impossible these tire troubles. By winter it had been shown as a certainty that our exclusive Double-Cable-Base construction was the biggest improvement in the history of pneumatic tires. From our very first announcement to the public the car owners of America—there has been a tremen- dous demand for this new type of tire.
