The Yeliow Cab Company of Chicago uses Firestone Tubes exclusively on its 800 taxi cabs. The service of these tubes is checked constantly improvements and developments are arrived at. By dose watching of a large number of tubes in service not confined to isolated instances, the conclusions are accurate and definite.
