BEAUTY IS KEYNOTE
!. OF. NEW. HUDSON 4SK'''''
Pure STREAMING Body@a Fea-
.ture of, the 1914
II +. Model.

Beauty is the keynote Of the new 1914
Hudson six" 81, seven passenger tour
ing car. which was placed on exhibition
yesterday at the salesroom of the Hudson
Automobile Company. 1136 Connecticut
avenue The most prominent feature 90
the new model is the pure streamline
body. No. angles appear at the dash.
while the running boards are clear 1t
conforms to the latest European prac-
tees. Germany originated the stream
line body, 1t being known by some as
the Prince Henry type.
Reliable information from factories of
Europe indicates that at the Paris show
in October practically every European
manufacturer will. exhibit bodies of this
type. This has been adapted by Hudson
DESIGNERS to American use and modified
to suit American ideas. The long, sloping
hood merges into the lines Of the dash.
The graceful sweep and smoothness is un-
broken from radiator cap to tail-light.
The steering wheel is at the left, with
control levers in center at drivers right,
and tires are carried in advance of the
left fore door. Thus access is obtained
from either door.
Springs Beneath Axle.
The motor has been improved by max
ing the crank-shaft heavier and the fly
wheel lighter. The pistons and connect
ing rods are made extremely light. This
adds to the liveliness of the motor and it
increases its power. Having the parts SO
much lighter decreases the inertia that
must be overcome before maxirlum speed
can be obtained.
There are four forward speeds, direct
drive being on third. Fourth speed Is for
use on level roads when the car is driven
more than thirty miles per hour. 1t de-
creases gasoline consumption. The start
ing device is much faster In its operation
than that used last year. 1t turns the
motor over almost 100 revolutions per
minute. This assures more prompt start
ing in cold weather. The lighting ar
rangement is simpler. By doing away
with side lights the headlights are used
to serve for both city and country driv-
ing.
The car Is said to be splendidly ventilat-
ed. The ventilators are in the dash. The
doors to forward compartment are stag
gered and may be hooked open. In per-
lection of mechanical detail. no less than
In its beauty and gracefulness, the 1914
Hudson Six "a is said to be a notable
advance in automobile construction.
The gasoline tank Is in the dash. All
control switches, speedometer, lighting
switch. gasoline indicator and oil pres
sure gauge are on the dash apron imme-
diately before driver.
The rear springs are placed beneath
the axle instead of above. This lowers
the body OF the car. 1t fnsures steadier
running, and, 1T is claimed. avoids a ten
dency to side-slip or skidding. Thinker
roller bearings are used In all wheels. in
rear axle and In steering knuckle. thus
providing much easier steering. A mere
touch OF finger controls the steering
wheel
