NEW KIND OF TIRE STOPS QUICKER IS SAFER ON WET SLIPPERY ROADS

Here's a new Goodrich tire with a tread that gives you the greatest

protection against skid-

ding that you're over had

on your car.

This now Lifessver

Tread is actually

a road dryer. Its never ending spiral bars, acting like

a battery of windshield

wipera sweep water right

and loft, force it 'vat

through the deep grooves. The rubber grips a dryer,

safer surface, stops your

car quicker than you've ever stopped before.

The new Goodrich SAFETY Silvertowr.
