United States Rubber Company Cele¬
brates Tenth Anniversary of a
Pioneering Advertising
Program
In 1915 therd were 2,445,666 auto¬
mobiles in this country.
It seemed a tremendous number.
Some people were already talking i
about “the saturation point” being not j
far ahead. j
Hut u there were some men who
couldn’t see the woods for the trees,
there were others whose faith never .
faltered.
It took lot of vision for them to '
a
see tomobile that the had true hardly market been for touched. the au- j
It took a lot of courage for them i
to bank on the ultimate success of,
the automobile in that market.
They had both.
Back in 1915, the United States
Rubber Company said “The real fu- 1
ture of the automobile is not in the
big cities but away from them. • *
It is not in short runs on city
streets, but in mile after mile on
country roads.”
So back in 1915 the United States
Rubber Company began to pre pare
for this movement—and to help
In 1915—ten years ago—the first
U. S. Tire advertising began to ap¬
pear in the “home town” papers.
Few people saw these papers in
their true dimension.
Few realized the influence they had
on what the people thought and did
and wore and bought. Because few
people realized the place they filled
in the minds and lives of their read¬
ers.
The United States Rubber Com¬
pany saw.
As clearly as it saw that the devel¬
opment of the automobile would be
in the smaller people communities, it saw
that the in these communities
would have to have tires to measure
up to the service and tire merchants
to sell them.
And it saw that in the “home
town” newspapers it had, ready to
! hand, the medium to help it put tire
I merchandising where it would have
to be in the new era of the automo
j bile.
] So ten years ago people began to
read the first U. S. Tire Advertis¬
ing in their “home town” paper—
over the name of their “home town”
dealer.
They have been reading it ever
since.
They have seen these home dealers
develop their little “side line of
tires” into real business- always
with the support of “U. S.” Adver¬
tising in these local papers.
Co-incident with the tenth anni¬
versary of “home town” advertising
by the United States Rubber Com¬
pany, this company announces an¬
other long step forward in the per¬
fection of automobile tires—the
greatest since the introduction of the
cord itself—in its perfected latex

Today there are 16,000,000 auto¬
mobiles in this country.
Eighty percent of them are owned
by men and women of the farms and
in the smaller communities.
