tremendous amoun of attention being
paid to the discussion of political con-
ventions before h time for holding
them came. The optimistic attitude
reflected itself throughout the country
in the pleas for larger allotments of
Ears for new territories. for the reason
thai dealers and distributors have al
ready begun to report a scarcity. The
extraordinary popularity of the new
Self-Starting Hudson 49, in addition
to the feeling of optimism which is pre-
ceding the prosperity wave, was crys-
tallized in the reports that within a
very few days it would be practically
impossible to secure Hudson cars Of
dealers in various sections of the coun-
try, so speedily nave motorists snapped
up the factory's production. Already
distributors and dealers have specified
more cars than the Hudson factory's
output, and in consequence il has been
necessary to turn down orders from
some sections of the United States in
the face of the wave of prosperity.

AaitI Il III
France, the nation that nursed the
sport in it's infant days, will again en-
gage in speed contests with Italy and
in 1912. The Grand Prix,
over the Dieppe course, will see this
trio of speed motor producing coun-
tries lighting for supremacy and will
mark the reentry of the French Oar
racq and Lorraine-D DIETRICH in the
speed arena.
Worlds records will probably with
stand the assault on them in this race
owing to the distance being 1,2OO miles,
but these two French cars are going
to make the famed Italian and Ger
mar teams exert every energy to win
the greatest of the old world classics.
The Dieppe curse will hardly admit
of the setting of a new worlds road
race record, as it is full of short hills,
abounds in winding turns and is not as
fast as the Santa Monica. where Har-
vey Herrick, in the National, averaged
1853 miles an hour. when he made the
worlds new road race record last Octo-
her a., or the Boessia circuit, where
Navarro, in a Fiat, made the record
that stood so long. This will work to-
gether to cut out higher speed than
the present mark.
The Fiat makers have planned to win
the race at any cost and the makeup
of their team bespeaks victory. The

brought out at the convention was the
scarcity of Hudson cars. which has al
ready been felt though spring has
hardly begun in many sections of the

get them was a significant indication.
