THE 1912 AUTOMOBILES.
BY HUGH Chalmers.

With a great many of the standard
cars for 1912 already announced, and
with new manufacturing season well
under way, have no hesitancy in pre-
dieting that 1912 will be most pros
porous year for the automobile in
dustry.
l do not say this as a mere matter
of form, but because l believe it.
Every large manufacturer of motor
cars is vitality interested in the pros
pect for business. l know of many
men in the industry who, after careful
investigation of conditions, have ar
rived at the same opinion as myself.
In my opinion success in the auto
mobile industry depends upon the solu-
ton of a manufacturing problem. The
days of rapid fire manufacturing and
selling, of pyrotechnics and hailfellow-
well-met methods are past We all
know that water will reach its level
1t cannot flow up hill and it is bound
to flow down as soon as some Of it Is
drained away.
The water has been drained out OF

abroad for American-made automo

market. Over-production is the great

building and selling automobiles is a
manufacturing proposition just like
the building and selling of any other,
commodity. 1T
There is a great market for instance
for adding machines. Yet it would be
ridiculous to think that manufacturers
could build two or three hundred thou
sand adding machines every year and
not food the market
| think some manufacturers of auto
mobiles have not yet come to full
realization of the fact that they can
build too many cars. Those manufac-
turers, | surmise, are apt to find 1912
a very hard season before they are
through with it. There are some who
may find themselves in serious difficult
ties in the next couple of years unless
they plan more conservative opera.
tions than they have attempted in the
past
! Every manufacturer must realize
for every thousand of population there
is only certain percentage of men Of
enough means to buy motor cars. The
automobile manufacturer must con
slider his market The percentage Of
people of means in every community
is almost as exact as the mortality
rates. Only trouble can result from
trying to go beyond the fact.
In my opinion the future of tn,
automobile industry lies in the thol
oughly standardized medium price
cars. The higher priced cars have
much more limited market than tn

ton. On the other hand, there are on
the market at this time a number Of
medium priced cars which will give
to the average buyer all the service he
could purchase at any price. For this
class the future possibilities seem to
me to be practically unlimited.
! believe, too, that the market for
the American medium priced car will
extend to all of the automobile centers
of Europe. There can be no question
but that the American manufacturer is
better equipped to build a good med
ium priced car than his European
competitors.
But the medium priced car which Is
to be a continued success must be well
built well finished and we'll equipped.
1t must be able to compete with high
priced cars, without discredit to its
owner. To this end all Of the leading
manufacturers. are working.
In this matter of greater automobile
values one again has purely a manu-.

in an economically conducted factory

there have been opportunities for eS

CADILLAC COVERS 1000
MILES OF AUSTRALIA.

The interesting details of the long
est pleasure tour ever attempted in
Australasia trip of 1000 miles in a
Cadillac car-have just been received
by the Cadillac Motor Car Company.
The trip is considered remarkable in
Australian motoring circles, and is
termed the star performance of the
year.
The tour was made by colin 3. King
of Brisbane, Australia, in 1911 fore
door Cadillac touring car. Mr.. King
started from Brisbane, journeyed via
Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and
Broken Hill to Cunnmula, where the
trip wa concluded. 1t was necessary
to cross a great stretch of desert to
reach Adelaide; and the car passed
within a short distance of the historic
spot on CooL er's Creek where an Aus
tralian expedition of exploration per
ished of thirst and privation.
The entire trip was made in less
than three months time; and MIR
King advises that the car was in as
good condition at the conclusion as at
the outset-fit, in fact, to start right
back over the long route The roads
encountered were very bad as we'll as
very good. 1t is an Interesting fact
that the entire tour was made on one
set Of tires, which remained in gooc
condition when Cunnamulla was
reached.
Thus the Cadillac wins the RECORD
for long distance touring in Australia
in a performance that outstrips any
American pleasure trip known.

Things are going along fine, he says,
Just now the question of advanc-
ing the merits of the Knox chemical
motor fire engine is engaging his at
tention, and he hopes that the super
visors will decide on a trial of one of
these machines. He states that they
have been great favorites wherever
they have been used, and is certain
that they would give satisfaction
here.
The selection of machines at the
Royal Hawaiian Garage is wide one,
embracing every kind of automobile
and electric car.

SPECIFICATIONS
OF NEW CADILLAC

The Won Hamm-Young Company,
local agents of the Cadillac motor car,
have received specifications of the
new 1912 model. During the recent
season of planning for the ensuing
campaign, the Cadillac people designed
several minor improvements to their
car, not the least of which is an cleo
trio starting device, said to be efficient
and reliable. Following are the new
features of the car:
1. Motor, removable from chassis
without removing fan pullry. Improved
and heater valve springs. Larger
bearings for pump gear shaft. Out
board bearing for cam shaft. External
adjustment for distributor, mitre
gears. Valve opening increased from
~ inches to inches. Improved
method of valve operating mechanism,
eliminating push rods. Connecting
rods made of special material increas-
ing strength. Larger intake manifold,
design changed, distributing gas more
uniformly. Larger exhaust manifold.
Front end gears of new material and
wider face. New design of packing
gland on gear cover.
2. Horse Power, Motor, although
of same bore and stroke as 1911, de-
velops much greater horse power.
8. New carbureter of Cadillac de-
sign, developed and perfected in our
own laboratories Most flexible and
most efficient we have ever known.
4. Transmission. Front and rear
bearings of transmission drive shaft
made oil tight Shifter arms for trans
mission gears stronger and of i'm
proved design.
5. Rear Axle. Improvement in some
details, principally the rear huh
clutch is shorter. Front axle l beam
section larger, larger and stronger tie
rod. Front wheel inside bearings
larger.
6. Brakes, drums increased from l.
inches to II inches diameter. Brake
operating mechanism improved. En-

National SRoque Champion Harold Bosworth of New London. who has already been here several times so far this season for daylight practice on the Rockwell street grounds, was at the grounds Tuesday evening for practice by electric light and in his game displayed the fine form which has characterized his play in all his games so far this year. His opponent was National Secretary Frank H. Foss, whom he defeated in one game, and then took on for another in which the champion had lead, but was compelled to leave for his car before the game could be finished. Bosworth is playing his usual cool, sresourceful game, in which he is ready at any time to take advantage of any slip by an opponent and when he once gets the balls there is small chance usually for the other man to see them again. It looks as if Bosworth would be found in top form to defend his title when the national tourney opens here next Tuesday.
 Some of the feature contests of the coming tourney will be between Champion Bosworth and C. c. King of Chicago. for possession of the Van Wickle medal, and it is probable that some of the decisive games in this series will be played at night. King holds the medal now and has been challenged to play by Bosworth.
 In preparation for the tourney, the executive committee of the Norwich Roque and Tennis club has appointed the following arrangement committee:
