You can if your streets are concrete. Concrete's gritty sur- face grips and holds tires, offers maximum traction in any weather. Its uniform riding surface gives you driving con- fidence-as further safety aid. And at night, concrete's light- gray, highly visible color makes your streets safer for motorist and pedestrian alike. For economy, for good appearance-and for safety-insist on concrete. Plan now to make needed street improve- ments in time to accommodate millions of visitors to New York's 1939 World's Fair.
