MUNICIPAL PAVING PLANT
AGITATED AT PORTLAND

Portland, Ore.-Agitation has been
started here for a municipal paving
plant. East Side Improvement clubs
have proposed that a measure be sub
mitted to the voters at the next cleo
ton authorizing a bond issue of ST.
100000 to establish such a plant.
The object of the move is to secure
cheaper paving. 1t is contended by
those behind the project that streets
can be improved under the new sys-
TEN at practically the cost of mate
rials and work, doing away with the
profits paid the paving companies.
Initiative petitions will be prepared
at once and circulated for signatures
sufficient to have the proposed chart
er amendment placed on the ballot
at the next election.

MARMON PERFORMS
WELL ON HARD TEST

The Colorado Springs to Denver
record was taken by the speedy Mar
mon car last week after a sensational
performance by Paul Tobin, Denver
agent for Nordyke and Marmon Com.
pany. The latest Marmon record was
made on the winding torturous noun
tain road between Colorado Springs
and Denver, covering II miles that tax
every resource Of the mortorist.
For two years the Thomas six
has held the coveted record of 1 hour
and So minutes for the distance. Thurs
day, March 3Oth, Lozier racing car
with Fred Hall at the wheel succeed
ed in lowering the record IA" minutes,
negotiating the route in 1:4O:3O.
On April 6, Tobin, in Marmon "32''
stripped touring car equipped with
racing seats was checked out at the
Gazette office in Colorado Springs at
9:30:15. and after whirlwind burst
OF speed during which sthe Marmon
was hurled around the treacherous
mountain curves at 40 miles an hour
and making better than 60 miles pei
hour against piercing wind storm. he
was checked In by E. w. Swanbrough
and other members OF the Denver Mo
tor club in the remarkable time OF
1:34:15. clipping 6A minutes from the
record.

GARAGE SYSTEM OF
AUTOMOBILE CLUB
Members of A. C. AS Get
More Than Usual Atten-
ton on Their Cars.

New York, April 29.-The Automo-
bile Club of America has garage side
to it which is rather complete Auto
mobiles that are put in there receive
an amount of attention which is not
duplicated in the ordinary garage and
which in fact would be impossible un-
der any other organization. When
a man is elected member of the club
and brings a car there for storage
purposes it is inspected first by
man who is superintendent of the re-
ceiving floor.
There careful survey is made of
the automobile and the condition of
every accessory and also of the body
is looked at carefully. The condition
of the paint on the body and whether
there are any scratches on the frame
or tenders, also what kind of lamps
and how many and whether bent or
untouched and every accessory there
may be is carefully noted down on a
form sheet used for the purpose.
When this inspection has been COM
pleted the car is allowed to ascend by
the elevator and is put in it's assigned
place.
| The equipment of the building for
the washing of cars is good and the
automobiles are thoroughly washed ev-
cry day. There is one man to do the
washing, another one to do the dry
ing and still another for polishing
brass work and such like on the car.
and SO on through. Every step as
completed is recorded on a card
which is countersigned again by the
floor superintendent, who turns it into
the general garage superintendent
Here is multiplicity of detail which
naturally could not be attempted OF
attained in any other garage.
In the matter of gasoline the filters
have been instructed to be rather
more liberal than under it, SO that the
members get an extra good supply OF
gasoline for the gallon. Gasoline, by
the way, is the only thing on which the
club attempts to make any money ex
cept of course in the case of some &C.
cessOries of very low price which il
sold at their cost would naturally re
suit in number of them being pur'
chased by chaffeurs under one pretext
or another and retailed outside.
The aim of the Automobile club Of
America is to give supplies to it's mem
bers at cost price, not making any
money at all on them. In fact, when
Charles E. Forsdick, secretary of the
club notices that there has been q
profit on the management of the gar
ege for a month that is in excess o.
probably an extremely small per cent
he at once begins chopping prices or
goods. in order that the garage sur
plus may be reduced.
Careful watch of course is kept or
the goings out and comings in of al
cars. There are rooms for the chat
Ifeurs where they may eat and where
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1911-04-30

they may wait around for orders from
their employers.
The whole garage is on a very vast
scale. There being about seven hun
dred cars in 1t, it is easy to see how
completely the thing has to be done.
The feature involved in the garage
system is to give the members the
best for the money that can be got
and at the same time to make it less
expensive for them to keep up their
cars. The rates charged for storage
are about the prices that would be
charged in good garage anywhere in

turned therefor are far better.

complain that his car had been
scratched or damaged In way that
it was not when he brought 1t in the
Identification sheets which are filled
when the car enters the building for
the first time help to determine wheth-
er that is true. For instance an own.

painted when it entered the place and
that the paint had been dulled through
the washing processes. The identifi
