REAL ESTATE BOARD
FOR BETTER AUTO LAWS.

The Newark Real Estate Board favors
the enactment into law of the measures
introduced to the State Legislature by the
New Jersey Automobile and Motor Club,
realizing that the establishment of recip-
rocal relations between our motorists and
those of the other States will result in ad-
vantage to this State.
New Jerseys laws now make 1t neon
yenient for non-residents to come to our
State.'' says DIR. Charles f. Kraemer, OF
the Real Estate Boards legislative com
mittee, ''and we shall ask the Senate Of
this State to fall in line with the House
of Assembly.
The New Jersey Automobile Club is not
asking for anything unreasonable, and, as
a motorist and as a citizen OF the State
who is Interested in the welfare of the
State, I hope to see our unfair motoring
laws amended.
1--WE are about to institute an advertis-
ing campaign, having for its object the
bringing Of New Workers to New jersey
to settle. II we make it dificut cor the
nonresident who owns a car to enter our
borders in order to look over the real
estate we offer for sale we shall suffer.
"Mauy OF the motorists of our sunarbs
are new omers to the State, and we can
secure more New Workers to visit us and
settle here In addition the manufac-
turing interests are suffering because Of
our short-slghted laws. New Jersey will
be given a big boom if the restrictive
motor laws are removed"

may be d~isarranged, and the car swung

the brakes applied meanwhile, when ii
may be readily seen whether they
come into full operation or not.
Neither the foot lever nor the hand
brake should move to its fullest ex-
tent. When they can be moved TO
come into contact the brakes require
adjustment, because the full breaking
effect could not be applied in case of

MOTOR CAR SMOKING.

For several years, ever since it be-
came generally known that motor cars
do not have to smoke. manufacturers
have endeavored to perfect fabrication
systems and to lessen h inclination
of authorities to legislate against the
so-called nuisance. The engineers of
several important motor car concerns
have adopted methods of construction
which give better fabrication with less
waste of oil than formerly. One of the
most successful in this direction has
been the Premier Motor Manufacturing
Co., which uses a return circulating
system of such design that Premier
motors seldom, if ever smoke.
In both the six and four-cylinder
cars, the oil is poured into the crank
case through an extra large opening
and flows to a reservoir Mt the rear.
The pump is<a centrifugal gear-driven
one, forcing the oil to %transver e
troughs which are moulded into the
lower aluminium half of the crank case,
and of such a shape that the oil level
Is always relatively the same irrespec-
tive of the road grade OIL angu'arity.
When the troughs overflow the oil
drains back to The reservoir at the
rear and is again forced to the troughs,
thus constituting the circulation. The
connecting rods have little spoons on
their lower ends and these dip into the
troughs and splash the oil UP into tn
cylinders and over the bearings. The
size of the spoons has been calculated
by actual experiment so hat they fur
nish Just sufficient fabrication and OBJ
viate any tendency to smoke. In actual
after the cars have been driven
for an extended period 1t has been
found upon removing the cylinders that
the evidence of oil on the top of the
pistons exists only about one-fourth of
an inch from their outer edges.

WILSON MOTOR CAR co.
TAKES HENRY AGENCY.

A new invasion of the local auto
mobile field took place this week when
the Wilson Rotor Car Company, of
Clinton avenue and Twenty-first street,
Newark, announced that they had
taken the distributing and selling
agency for the Henry cars for several
New Jersey counties.
The Henry car, although new to this
territory. has had unprecedented sue
cess In the Western field and has
proved itself to be one of the most
popular and successful cars in the
market. The line includes several open
and fcre-door models, as well as road
STEERS of the most approved types, and
ssanEe In price from 5000 to $4,000, with
ong-stroke motors of IS. 80 and 20
horsepower. The wheel base is excep-
tionalIy long and the spring construc-
ton very powerful, insuring comfort
able and easy riding.
There is no doubt but that the Henry
will find a ready market in Newark
and vicinity. as the several sales al
ready closed proves.
