Good business conditions and the increased pro

go hand in hand.
A dollar spent and put in circulation is much
nore potent for good than a dollar idle, hoarded and

Your funds in this bank will be made to work

COMMERCE Trucks are specially designed
for Pneumatic Cord Tire equipment
Trucks designed for solid tire equipment
can be run on Pneumatic Cord Tires, but
the same efficiency is not obtained, unless the
truck wu originally designed for Pneumatic
Cord Tires instead of Solid Tires.
Can you imagine the results to your touring car
if equipped with solid tires Shocks and vibra
tory stresses would wreck it in a month.
The chaui. of all Commerce Truck incorporate ninr
