Gates Of the clean up movement
Several Of the larger makers have
taken a step in this direction by plac-
ing the tires in special holders at the
rear Of the car and by removing the
tool box from the running board.
With these cars compartments have
been constructed in the apron directly
alongside the running board for tool
carving purposes. The tool cOmpart-
ments when closed cannot be distiu-
gufshed at a distance Of a few feet
from the car and are in equally as
