omobile influence within recent years. OF
prime importance comes the zest for tour
ing, then a growing appreciation for good
roads. As extensive touring means travel
ing from one state to another, there nat
urally arises the demand for reasonable
municipal ordinances and uniform. state
legislation to protect the rights not only
OF the motorists, but other users Of the
highway; allied with these arises the ne
cessity for proper ~signboards marking the
distance from place to place as we'll as
dangerous curves, railroad crossings and
hills, and further, proper maps and route
cards. In all these the automobile has
scored victories, not always accomplished
without battling against prejudice, but how
readily this has been disarmed when the
ability Of the motor car for various uses
has been discovered and when the owners
Of machines have been careful to exercise
courtesy and discrimination for the rights
Of others.
No longer does the farmer menace The
motor car as in former days. The farmer
in many parts Of the country is now one
Of the most ardent advocates Of automobile
use and no longer decries the movement
for good roads. Indeed, the National
Grange and farmers, clubs are now The
strongest allies of automobiiists toward Sc
curing beneficial measures.
strength In Organization.
Stil another point, and perhaps the most
prominent Of all that has been accom-
plished year by year by the steadily In
creasing demand for more cars, thereby
meaning new owners, new users and a
wider distribution OF service every season,
is the organized strength that has devel-
oped. The governing body OF the United
States. the American Automobile associa-
ton, depends upon the users OF
the country for the ability to secure these
very benefits as have been enumerated.
This national organization IS the represen-
tative OF the automobllists Of the country
through their hundreds Of clubs.
That the national idea is being well
worked out is amply shown by the fact
that the national association showed an
increase Of approximately 70 per cent in
membership during the last year. its pres
ent membership being close to 1900. There
are thirty state associations, including
those OF Hawaii and the District OF Column
hia. These associations have a member
ship Of about 25 clubs, and there ia In adj
dition q score OF unfederated clubs in states
where state associations have not as vet
been formed.

During cold weather it is often possible
TO economize gasoline by removing the
belt from the radiator or by shielding a
portion of the radiator from the air by
means of a covering of some sort. This
prevents the circulating water from being
maintained at as low a temperature as it
otherwise would be and reduces the losses
through the cylinder walls, thus increasing
motor efficiency.

TO DEAUTIFY AUTO SHOW
Expensive Madison Square Garden
Decorations for Auditorium.
CROWDED FOR EXHIBIT SPACE
Management May Decide 10 Replace
Second Floor In Big Display Hall
Forty Dealers Are TO
Be Represented.

Automobile dealers of Omaha have de-
cided to make the coming show at the
Auditorium, February p. p, not only a
big show shop for the display OF all the
latest designs in automobiles. but also
to make IL a veritable bower OF beauty.
Clark G. Powell. who has been in the
east for the last month has arranged with
the promoters of the Madison Square
Garden Automobile show to secure some
of the splendid s~tatuary which is to be
used in New York in January for the
Omaha show. The promoters OF the
Garden show will spend $4,000 in decora-
tions and Omaha will be able to secure
the best OF this at a greatly reduced cost.
The Omaha show looms up bigger and
bigger each week for The list Of dealers
in Omaha is weekly growing larger and
each Of these will be ommoda with
with space as long as there is a little
room left. The show committee, consist
ing of Clark Powell and Nj. G. Hosford.
makes daily visits to the auditorium to
figure out where additional space may be
secured. The question now confronting
the committee is whether the additional
floor which was used for the Corn show
will have TO be put back for the automobile
show.
Growth in Five Years.
Five years ago there were ABOUT five
dealers in Omaha and when the first show
was held that was about the number OF
Omaha dealers to show. Now there are
nearer forty dealers and all carry large
stocks OF cars and accessories.
Implement dealers are doing an immense
jobbing business in Omaha in automobiles.

is to, their profit to handle automobiles
and besides they were practically forced
to do SO in order to hold their country
connections.
An instance Of the way the
business is being pushed was shown by
one OF the large Jobbers last week. The
Raoine-Sattley cImpany decided to put in
a line Of automobiles. hoy Coffeen, the
local manage OF the company, received
his model car, a Firsstone Columbus, made
by the Columbus Buggy company, last
week, and during the first week twenty
one cars have been jobbed out OF the
Omaha office.
The automobile accessory business in
Omaha has kept pace with the growth Of
the auton obile business. When the show
closed last year the Powell Automobile
company was practically the only concern
engaged in the accessory BUSH
ness. Mr.. Powell did a business amount
ing to about 10000 on the year. This
year the accessory business Of the four
concerns doing business in Omaha has
reached the enormous sum OF over $1,000
600 and the business is considered as stIlI
in its infancy. AS the automobile business
Increases so will the accessory and the
more machines sold the more tires, the
difference being that a machine will wear
out many tires.

East ~OverstOcked.

1t is true, too, that some vehicle man
ufacturers in the extreme eastern portion
Of the country have been compelled to run
on short time and to take up other lines
than vehicles. but there is a reason for
that. The eastern dealers were overstocked
with work a couple Of years ago, and have
only just begun to see their heads above
the big stocks OF vehicles which were
unloaded upon them then. 1t is generally
believed that more vehicles will be sold
to dealers in the Atlantic coast states and
nearby localities next season than during
the last two or three seasons.
In the middle west there has been a
general tendency TO enlarge the factory
capacity Of vehicle manufacturers, and the
output Of most concerns has been larger
since January / last than ever before.
Some factories in this section have been
transferred into automobile plants or to
the manufacture Of bodies or
parts. This has given other manufacturer
an opportunity to build and market their
goods, and has relieved to a considerable
extent the possibilities OF over-production
and lessened competition.
1t is noticeable that manufacturers OF
moderate priced vehicles for city and farm
use, such as buggies, Surveys and other
pleasure vehicles, are having demands for
all the work they can produce at this time
Some concerns are even nov compelled to
operate their plants long hours to keep up
with the sales which are being made by
travellers and by mail. Additions are being
built to factories, disproving the oft-made
assertion that the vehicle industry has gone
to the dogs.
Demand for Skilled Men.
One thing which is troubling vehicle
manufacturers is the tendency Of auto
mobile manufacturers to take their best
skilled help at higher wages than they
can afford 10 pay. Many a factory has
recently lost many Of their best men. lured
TO the auto manufacturers by the guaran-
tee Of big pay, which the vehicle men
could not meet without largely increasing
their selling prices. This has necessitated
promoting mechanics who were really not
ready to take the step, and placing in sub
ordinate positions men with little or no
training.
Some prominent carriage builders. at the
recent convention Of the Carriage Builders
National association. asserted that they
had been compelled 70 turn their attention
to the manufacture Of automobiles. or ac-
cessories and parts. or else quit business.
They advised their brother manufacturer
