By GEORGE ". DUNHAM.
Consulting Engineer Of the Chalmers Motor
Company.

The most interesting thing learned on
my recent trip 10 the Paris automobile
show and the principal factories Of Europe
was thar tho American built motor car does
not have TO take back seat for the best
cars produced in Europe. The tendencies
in construction abroad are much the same
as in this country. There are few mechan-
icai changes from last years models. and
there Is a steady effort to give an automo-
bile user more comfort and convenience in
his car
As a member Of the Chalmers organiza-
ton I observed with some pride that the
most popular car in Europe Is the hve-pas-
senger touring car with a comparatively
small motor. usually rating between . and
20 horsepower, and the cars which sell the
hest have the unit power plant. The bodies
are made roomisr than heretofore and the
details Of comfort are looked after better
The doors are large and the seats are deep
and low, and dust gathering features are
quite generally eliminated.
must say. however. that the refnements
which characterize the better American
automobiles are lacking on the European
cars. The American public. for instance.
would not accept a car on which the run
ming board was merely suspended from the
frame without anything 20 keep grease and
dirt from flying into the car and getting on
the passengers; vet one Of the best selling
cars I saw in France has this somewhat
crude construction.
The en- bloc is quite general abroad. For
ward doors are also coming into general
use. In point Of mechanical finish the
European cars are indeed excellent. though
I must say that Standardization OF manu-
fscture. with its resultant interchangeable
ity Of parts. Is not so well known in Europe
as in the hest American factories.
