PLANS NOVEL AUTO
TESTS NEXT MONTH
Trials to Show Dust-raising.
Smokeless Exhaust, and
Brake Tests.

NEW YORK, Aug. H.-At a meeting
OF the New York Automobile Trade
Association yesterday il was decided 10
hold a two-day efficiency motor car
test to Montauk Point. and return on
Wednesday and Thursday. September
Is and II. II ives also announced that
a week later, Sc gtember . and a, the
association would hold dust trials.
smokeless exhaust trials, and brake
trials
II is a singular thing that although
abroad these three kinds Of trials have
been very popular and interesting not
only 10 the motoring but TO the general
public and public officials, no one has
ever suggested having one here, and
hence some very interesting and novel
results are predicted.
Arrangements for holding the trials
are simple a 200-yard course IS first
measured Of alongside the road. and
an electric motor drives an elevated
endless belt over the course, which car
ries a flag, at a predetermined rate
OF speed OF miles an hour. The surface
of the road IN the dust trial is covered
with fine crushed limestone and dried
leaves. and then the cars are sent over
the course. The JUICES are governed
in their decisions not only by what they
see. but from the reproductions Of in
Simultaneous Photographic films which
are taken al the time. Another feature
OF the dust trials consists in having
powdered limestone not only between
the wheels, bat under the tracks Of the
wheels. TO show what the rubber tires

The machine which made the run TO

Although the little car came through
the grueling trip intact and with no
mechanical troubles, It showed the eff

efficiency and endurance are well
founded.
In speaking Of the run, Mr.. Bussey
said:
Mr.. Doran and myself are more than
pleased with the record our machine
has made, We have encountered all
sorts OF unfavorable weather and roads.
From the time we left Newark, Ohio,
until we reached Wheeling, W. Va, we
were compelled 20 ride through a blind
ing rainstorm. md not once were we
obliged to stop for repairs or adjust
ments Of any kind. Again at Steuben-
vile we had a mountain over a thou
sand feet high and only about seven
tenths OF d mile road approach.
we were told that it had been the
Waterloo OF more than one big car. but
we experienced no difficulty whatever In
climbing H. We have travelled on an
average of from five to eight hours n
day covering a distance Of from seven
ty-five TO one hundred miles, I received

Perhaps no competition more inter
esting TO the general user of automo-
biles has occurred this season than the
removable rim contest recently held in
Chicago, when il was shown J-Iat the
danger OF punctare need no longer be
a bugbear even to a man going 10
catch train.
The rules required road conditions
for the changes and yet eight times the
Fisk removable rim. with inflated tire
which scored the best time was chang
ed in less than ninety seconds and five
of the eight times the change was made
in less than sixty seconds. Generally
the motorist on the road would not care
about a few seconds, but the value of
such a contest lies in the fact OF it's
demonstrating the facility OF these de-
vices and their relative merit.
It is OF greatest importance TO the
user that this marvellous quick chang
ing means the. replacing of a fat tire
with one fully inflated.
