Studebaker Plan illustrates the
Manner in Which Change
Has Come About

II the automobile industry soon "

The suggestion would have been
laughed to scOrn Few seasons oeo'
What! Send automobiles direct rom

ing that they will really run hoo
the industry OF Its most romah.is
fgure-ons that has so long STOOD
for the very highest type OF motor
mechanic? Perish the thought!
Nevertheless, the possibility Is a
live topic of discussion In Detroit
right now. Perhaps the tester may
survive for several seasons. even IN
the most scientific and largest plants.
In plants where various units OF con-
struction are bought outside. and as
sembled at one headquarters. he my
last longer. But steadily and surely
his work Is being simplified and MS
scope narrowed. In general pellel, "
ia hut a matter of few years before
he will exist In very modified form,
only.
AS one OF the big Studebaker CO.
terie of expert drivers put 1t. Ihey
cali us testers and we're still testers
on the payroll. But we're fast com
ing to be a bunch OF pleasure-riders.
There's nothing to do now but take q
car round the course, o. X. IT, ana
climb into another one" And the
veteran sighed for the days when
testing was testing and called for
judgment and executive ability.
The man who has 80 narrowed the
duties OF q tester is the individual
who: with micrometer or gauge, &C.
curate to less than a hairs breadth,
passes steadily on the work OF each
man and machine in the shop, en-
surfing accuracy In every operation or
manufacture. In the StudeoaKer
plants he exists to the number OF
more than 800.
His work begins with the raw ma
terial which is tested for accuracy to
specified chemical formula. He fol
lows the material through every step
OF its neutrality-suspicious. In
speeding the same part after each OF
more than q score of operations. He
tests its performance In the assem-
bled unit. removing now and then
part for test on intricate machines,
capable of trying 1t to state Of de-
struction. He inspects the COM
pleted car. scrutinizing finish as well
as mechanical perfection. Last OF
all. he goes carefully owe. each auto
mobile on the shipping platform, as 1t
enters It's box car, and sees to 1t that
It IL complete with every detail OF
equipment.
There are even inspectors who in
spect the work of the other inspect

What chance Is there for the poor
ROAD tester to bring In anything but a
favorable verdict on cars built to

try will gather in Akron. Oct. to

to come. In less than a year, how
ever. another addition was added.
Last summer two more wings were
started-these will be finished early
IN the spring and will nearly double
the output of Firestone tires.
The building Is built OF steel and
concrete and absolutely fireproof. A
universal sprinkler was installed to
guard against fire.

the opportunity of getting to their
Akron factory during the convention

opportunity OF going through the diff
ierent departments and discussing
the problems and difficulties that
they had met during the season Just
past Every man will return to his
work feeling that he Is better pre-.
pared to serve his company. and flied

GOODYEAR HAS NEW
TIRE CONSERVATION PLAN

"The care of tires is essential, II
the expense Of running an automobile
Is to be kept at . minimum" says F.
A. Henderson, manager of the adjust.
ing department. the Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Co., Akron, o.
Premature deterioration is due. to
neglect, therefore educating the con-
sumner Is remedy for short service,
and in addition increases his faith In
the tires he uses.
I'VE have recently put across q plan
whereby the dealer is enabled to see
the advisability and advantage gained
by instructing his customers on the
care Of their tires when the FIRST ad-
justment Is made. 1t IL an education
al campaign that Is being carried on
by the adjusting department through
the dealer. as he Is the logical inter.
mediary between the manufacturer
and the consumer.
From a recent Investigation we
found that large portion of the tires
returned for an adjustment had gone
out OF service through external causes
that could have been avoided.
I'VE knew that there was only one
remedy that could overcome this con-
dition and that was to instruct the
user of automobile tires on their care
When a customer experiences din.
Guilty with his tires, he Is naturally at
the time OF the trouble In q receptive
mood, and will no doubt take ad.
vantage Of any information he might
receive, that would tend to overcome
his trouble In the future. This In the
object Of instructing customers when
making their flrst adjustment"

SHIPBUIIDING ON INCREASE.
Bureau of INV igation Makes Report
for Fiscal Year.

Returns received by the Bureau OF
Navigation, OF the Department of Com
merce, indicate that the current fiscal
year will show an output of American
shipyards greater than for any OF the
past four years. and equal to the aver
age annual output for any series of
active years of construction.
For the nine months ending March 81
the merchant vessels built in the United
States and officially numbered by the
department comprised lila of 26o,26S
gross tons, compared with 1,d61 of 1o1,341
gross tons for the corresponding ninf
months a year ago. AS the spring and
early summer are generally the season
of greatest progress. the output for the
year probably will reach 10000 tons.
Steel steamers built aggregate 151,50
tons, compared with 1901 tons for the
corresponding nine months year ago.
Ship building on the Great Lakes
shows little change but the total, output
on the Atlantic Seaboard has increased
from 64,522 tons to 161,O61 tons. Wood
sailing vessels show a decrease and form
only a small fraction-11,971 tons-of the
total for the United States.
