GREAT SUCCESS
AS A RELIABILITY TEST
After 300 Miles Of Roads Of Every Description, Con-
testing Cars Make Great Showing in Outdoor Ex-
amination-Committee Completes Work.
BY HARRY WARD.

As a demonstration OF the reliability
and durability Of motor cars. the Frank
A. Munsey reliability contest was a
pronounced success. When eighteen cars
checked in at the Munsey building yes
terday afternoon, followed by two others
long after the checking station was
closed. after travelling 1.2S2 miles over
roads that were ranged from fine
macadam to the toughest country trails,
their drivers had been through expert
ences that seldom fall 10 the lot Of re-
liability contest pilots.
While the computations Of the tech
nical committee will not be completed
until late in the day. 1t is generally be-
lieved that every car has been elimi-
mated from the perfect score class. This
is rot a reflection on those that we're
perfect up to the time Boston was
reached. for that portion of the route
from the Hub city TO the National
Capital was about as trying a piece Of
going as was ever encountered.
What Is Proved.
The Munsey tour has demonstrated be-
You'd a doubt that the motor car can
accomplish what no other vehicle Of
locomotion can. Many OF the cars made
the entire trip without an adjustment Of
any nature. This meant that the mo-
tors, transmissions, axles, driving parts
and running gears made the entire dis
lance without A wrench or hammer of
any nature being used upon them. What
other vehicle of locomotion at the pres
ent day has a record that can in any
wise compare with thisT
Immediately after the cars checked in
at he Munsey building they were driven
10 The Warner Garage, where, on the
broad pavement at the junction of New
Hampshire avenue and NJ street the
cars were put through the outdoor tests.
These tests are one of the most inter-
esting features OF the tour, for they
serve TO show the condition OF the motor
and the brakes and clutch.
Brake Test.
In giving the brake test, the car IN

roadway az its competing speed; one
set Of brakes Is applied and the dis

TO a stop. The other set OF brakes is
similarly tested. A car travelling 19}
