Big Financiers Favor
... American Motor Cars

That big men in commercial life find
that the demands of twentieth CEN
tury business methods make the en-
ployment of several automobiles alb
solutely necessary is indicated by the
number of such men who own and op-
crate machines. AS an instance, j. P.
Morgan, jr., Is using an American
made car between his country place
and New York city. He drives the car
much of the time himself, although
he employs chauffeurs. He has three
other motor cars in his garage An
other well-known figure in American
business life who operat. a. number
of cars is President Underwood. of the
Erie railroad, who has eight automo-
biles.
Many other we'll known financiers
and big men in the country's CONNER
cial life own and operate several dix
ferent cars. Some they use in the per-
formance of business duties and others
in social life. One notable point in this
connection is that scores OF big figures
in business, who own several high
priced American and foreign cars
men with whom price cuts no figure
have become owners of medium-prtced
cars.
The Washington times., 1912-05-25
Why Some Motorists
Get Big Tire Mileage

With the modern automobile so prac-
ticafly perfect that trip of fifty. 100
or 1000 miles is now made with scarcely
a thought of any possible trouble with
the car itself tire troubles become
particularly exasperating-and appear
even more frequent than ever before.
Owners are frequently puzzled to un-
derstand why one man can get long
mileage and have very little trouble,
while another having the same car and
same tires does not get half the service.
a very small part OF 1t is luck-the chief
reason generally being that the first
man really understands his tires and
handles them accordingly, while the
second. through lack Of this understand
ing, is constantly ioinS things OF falling
to do things which make a big differ
ence in tire satisfaction and durability.
The Washington times., 1912-05-25
The Automobile a
Factor In Politics

Col. ]. VOTERS. candidate for the
United States Senate to succeed Senator
]. w. Bailey. is making a notable rec
ord of automobile mileage, in Texas. In
the first thirty-five days OF his can
vass of that State he travelled 2,40O miles
in his car and 400 miles by rail. On his
long automobile trips through the
western part cf the State he met with
some interesting experience. He expects
to travel not less than 5000 miles by au-
tomobile before he winds up his cam
paign. Gov. o. B. Colquitt, who is
seeking denomination, and his opponent,
w. F. Ramsey, are both making a mo-
tor car canvass Of Texas.
