LONDON. Aug. 20 Despite the
frank disapproval Of many influential
figures in the government and on the
part Of the majority of Londou's
prominent lawyers. Viscount HaldaHe,
ord High Chancellor of the British
Empire, has sailed on the Lusitania
for New York, enroute to the Ameri-
can Bar Association meeting at Mon
treal.
in the eyes of English barris!ers
the journey OF Viscount HaldaHe to
America is looked upon as the sacri-
ngeous breaking of custom that has
been carefully adhered to for centur-
les with few exceptions The last
Chancellor to break the custom was
Lord Brougham, who held the honor
under King William. He made a trip
to Scotland, and was referred 20 as
gayune disgraced himself and lis pc.
sition. The famous Cardinal Woisey,
IF KING Henry's reign, infringe on
the custom wen he went to Calais,
ana his rash act was made one Of the
chief indictments Of his subsequent
impeachment.

BIG IMPROVEMENTS
Large Additions to the Facilities al
Locust Point viii Soon be
Made

The Baltimore ana Ohio Railroad
will make a large addition to its ia
cilities for handling export and i'm
port shipments at its Locust Point
terminals by providing approximately
$4,000 square feet OF additional pier
space. The specifications which have
been sent to contractors call for the
enlargement Of the present open pier

length Of 800 feet, By 60 feet In width,
and the boat slip on the east side
heightened thus accommodating two
vessels on each side OF the structure.
Bids win be opened by the railroad
on August 30 and II is expected that
the contract wiz be let and the work
started without delay
After its enlargement pier 5 VIII
be one of the largest piers in the
Locust Point terminals and one Of the
most gigantic open piers on the At
lantic seaboard. The plans call for
widening the pier IL feet on the
west side. razing the annex to the
present brick warehouse on the east
side of the pier and lengthenlng the
boat slip 100 feet. Pier will also be
equipped with a raised platform for
the full length of the pier. on the
west side Of the structure. The plat
form will be built on a level with the
car floor. which viii save extra han.

of transferring shipments over the
pier Principally bulk freight is han

ding Of heavy shipments will mean
a substantial saving to the railroad
company The pier win contain four
tracks SO that cars can be run along

Ne " VELIE CARS
ATTAIN ECONOMY
Max |. RoSenfeId, President OF
Auto Sales Co., Speaks
of important Points

The consideration of weight as a
factor in the economical operation OF
a motor car is growing every day."
says Max / Rosenfeld. president of
the Auto. Sales company. who sells
Vene cars in the local territory
The engineering force at the velie
factory Is putting particular stress
on this important point at the present
time. without realizing the fact. the
buying public Is making it harder
every year for the manufacturer TO
put out a car that will be economical
in operation.
This is due in large part to the de-
mand for various heavy accessories
which has become so great that these
accessories are as essential TO the
properly built car as the motor and
other working parts.
The biggest advances have been
made along the lines of using high
grade materials scientifically placed
IN the car to give the necessary
strength without the usual weight.
in g way the process Of tightening
the car helps in getting superior
strength. since the various parts Of
the car are subjected to lesser load,
due to the light weight.
How far Velie engineers have
progressed in this direction is shown
in the new Velie Six which has al
ready become known as the 1000
pounds lighter car. This car weighs,
when ready for the road and loaded
with full passenger capacity. less than
the average six cylinder car weighs
empty.
"On the long run test just completed
the value of this lessened weight
made itself felt in the remarkable
freedom from tire trouble In fact,
there was practically no attention re-
quired in the way Of taking care Of
the tires.
"A rather high gasoline economy
record was also scored on the run.
considering that for more than 1000
miles the route was over the worst
mountain roads that II was possible
TO find.
The average distance covered per
gallon Of gasoline was 10 miles, and
no attempt was made TO run the car
with low gas consumption.
Another factor which is OF supreme
Importance and which is materially
aided by light weight is the securing
Of riding comfort The light weight
car. suspended on properly built
springs, seems to override road shocks
in a surprising manner. and the oc-
cupants feel practically no jolting or
!arring.

Have You Forgotten
Your First Lesson?

You viii never forget your
first day at the wheel of an
automobile. As you viii re-
member, you were driven to
some distant boulevard, where
you would he unmolested by
traffic. Driving up to the side of
the curb, your instructor pro-
ceeded to explain the functions
of the various levers and ped
MS. After a short talk with
him, you were fully convinced
that none other than an auto
mobile engineer could ever hope
TO run an automobile. You are
assured by the driver that 1T is
so simple that even child
could drive ff. Spurred on by
this statement, you change
seats with your insfructorg
through your head are rushing
past instructions regarding the
pushing of pedals and the pull
ing of levers. Taking Arm
hold on the steering wheel, you
proceed 10 push as muny pedals
as are within handy reach of
your two feet. The car gives n
lurch forward like drunken
sailor and, after going a dis
tance of about Is feet. makes
one finnl lurch and the motor
expires. A look of disgust passes
over your Instructors face and
he informs you in no pleasant
terms that you have stalled the
motor. You readily agree with
him that you have done some
thing. Well, anyway, after
what seemed Ike hours of In
bor, you finally master the driv-
ing of the car.

RENST ROM TELLS
|. Of REGAL OUTPUT
Factory Is Planning to Build
10000 Cars Next Year
Plant Covers 7 Acres

"I haven't any rash statement to
make concerning the output for the
season ahead" Frank Renstrom. the
Regal distributor, stated, during a
conversation concerning the future OF
undersIung cars. when we first be-
gan manufacturing Regal cars, we
sold 250 for first season. That was
in 1908 The Regal was the first four
cylinder car to sell for s1.250.
"Regals were overhung at that
time but it was not long until the
factory realized that the underslung
car would become the car Of the
future. And from that time the
efforts of the Regal plant have been
devoted to advancing the scientific
theory of the underslung. Our cars
are known everywhere, not only on
this continent. but in foreign coun-
tries.
we have big distributing points in
Johannesburg. Australia, New Zeal
and. Hongkong, st. Petersburg,
Tokyo, Calcutta, Borneo and many
other out of the way places, as well
as in every one Of the large cities
Of the world.
The growth Of the Regal under
slung is truly remarkable, and re-
gardless Of where you go, you viii
ind our car represented. From 25o
cars built and sold in 1908, we sold
cars annually thereafter as follows:
1903. 1000 cars; 1910. $500 cars; 1911,
500 cars; 1912, $500 cars. and we
expect to sell 1900 cars In 1913.
The factory is planning ahead for
10000 cars to be built in 1914, and
YOU can bank on 1t that they will
sell them. The Regal was never
more popular than It Is now, and the
big manufacturers realize that the
underslung car Will be the great car
of the future
From a small workshop, our fac
tory has expanded to a plant cover
ing seven and q half acres. Our
buildings are all built with an eye &c
the future. and are freproof. We
maintain our own racing or testing
track and thoroughly try out every
car before it leaves the factory. Our
plant is one of the most thoroughly
equipped in the country.

New 1914 Cadillac.

mobile Club of Southern California
He had just returned from two
months inspection of the possibilities
of using not only the present roads
in and through the Yosemite national
park. but also to the feasibleness of
constructing new roads where only
mountain trails now exist.
The Automobile Club OF southern
California Is taking the initiative in
thus exploiting the possibilities OF the
country surrounding Yosemite valley,
knowing that the time is near at hand
when q most insistent demand will be
made on the national government for
the opening OF these roads and the
construction of every road that IL is
feasible to build.
To this end the club has had Its
engineering department making q
thorough reconnaissance of the ex
listing roads and trails all the way
from the San Joaquin valley to the
Nevada state line.
