Prodium Process
Makes Tires Last Longer
discovery of the Produim
Process is the greatest step for-
JL ward in rubber manufacturing:
since the perfecting of vulcanization.
It has given to Republic Tires a tread of
super-toughness that is wear resisting to
a remarkable degree.-
It wears down as evenly as a piece of
tempered steel, and the rubber is so strong
that a strip of it one and one-half inches
square will suspend a weight of more
than three tons.
More than. 100,000 sets of Republic Pro
dium Process Tires have been sold to
tire users.
We know now that the Prodium Process
does make tires last longer and that mil
lions of dollars will be saved to tire buyers.
As the result of an unprecedented de
mand from every part of the country, we
are trebling our production of Republic
Prodium Process Tires.

PROTEST FOOM THE
CAPITAL OVER HAUY
DEPARTMENT RULE
' Tallahassee, May 10. (Specials
Representative citizens of Tallahassee
have petitioned the congressmen and;
senators of Florida to use every means
within their power to oppose the fol-;
lowing provision of the naval appropri
ation bill now pending:
- "That no part of the appropriations
made in this act shall be available forj
me salary or pay ui auy uxxicei, ixiaxx
ager, superintendent, foreman or other
person having charge of the work of
any employee of the United States gov
ernment while making or causing to
be made with a stop-watch or other
time-measuring device a time study of
any job of any such employee wnile
engaged upon such work; nor shall any
part of the appropriations made in this
act be available to pay any premiums
or bonuses or cash reward to any em
ployee in addition to his regular wages
except for suggestions resulting in im
provements or economy in the opera
tion of government plant."
We feel that the United States gov
ernment should be free to take any ac
tion which will speed the work at the
munitions plants, of any and every de
scription; and if it.be necessary to
stimulate production to offer any cash
or other bonuses as rewards of merit
and patriotism, this matter should be
left entirely within the jurisdiction of
the proper officials, who shall act only
under the authority of President Wil
son.
We depreciate any attempt, under
whatever guise, to hamper or cripple
the efforts of our government at this
critical time, and urge you, as true
Americans, to stand by the president in
tnis matter, ana to oppose any bill
which carries within its provisions any!
power whatsoever that can lower the'
efficiency and retard the speed of war
preparations. The honor of our coun
try must be backed by our every dol
lar and our utmost personal support.
