Automobiles Keep Men *
and Merchandise Moving
Railroads are strained to their limit today to supply transportation
for man and merchandise*.
The automobile has stepped into the breach, and is the second greatest
factor in meeting the national need for more —more —more transportation.
You must keep your car fulfilling its part of the need,
—keep it ready day or night to do its part in your transportation service,
—keep its “feet” well shod,
—give it the tires that have stood, and are continuing to stand, the
test of mileage,
—the tires that give low mileage cost and high anti-skid service.
Put United States ‘Royal Cord’ i ires on your car —make compar
isons for yourself.
