WHAT THE TWO SPEED AXLE
SAVES.
NJ Il. r. DRYsDALE,
Cadillac Motor Car ompany.

TN DRIVING a motor car with SO inch
wheels and a 1856 to gear ratio
= distance OF say 5000 miles the revo-
luiions OF the engine reach the enormous
total OF approximately 10. 900. 0oo. In the
same car driven the same distance. hut
with a rs TO 1 gear ratio. the engine
revolutions VIII be approximately -
000,0 900. In other words, In u car equipped
with two speed axle, provided II be
driven on the rs to | gear. there will be
clear saving OF approximately 3.00o.ooO
revolutions in the engine.
Suppose that car he driven say 1000
miles per annum--and this Is perhaps
far nverage---it Is not unreasonable to
assume that the !? to I gear can he
utilized during about 5000 OF the 1000
miles travelled. This means ne before
stated. - saving OF 100000 engine revo-
lutlons II can readily be seen what this
means In the saving In wear on the crank
shaft bearings
Now let us see what else Il means In
travelling the 5000 miles on the rs to |
gear. IL means a saving OF 100000 ex-
plosions in each cylinder. or total OF
5000 900 in four cylinder engine. 1t
means a saving OF 100000 revolutions
Of the camshaft II means saving OF
100000 openings and closngs OF each
exhaust valves. or a total OF 100000
openings and closings of the inlet and ex
haust valves.
There arc four strokes Tor each piston
for each explosion. and as there Is
saving OF 5000. 900 explosions. il means a
saving OF a total OF 2i,OOO.0O0 piston
strokes. In the Cadillac. for example. the
piston stroke il "a inches. or a total
piston travel for each explosion ~ 20
inches As there Is a saving OF 5000 0O0
explosions II means a total tavins OF 1885,
100000 inches OF piston travel or 81
500, 900 inches for each piston. This IL
saving Of 5ii miles OF travel fOg racH
piston or 2.l76 miles OF piston travel
saved on all four. IL means a saving Of
S.G00.0uO revolutions OF the electric
gene rator and an equal number of saw
!ngs of the distributor II means a saving
OF 5000. 900 sparkings at the spark plugs.
One might go ON almost indefinitely
were he to specifically point out every
movement that IL saved, as the saving is
effected on every moving part which has
to do with the generating and transmits
sion OF the power. from the engine back
to the rear axle. The examples given,
however. will suffice to illustrate The
wearing OF parts is caused by friction In
their movements in contact with each
other. hence Il naturally follows that the
fewer movements there are. the less will
be the wear. And as the reduction Of
movements runs into the millions. IL can
re IDLY be realized what this means In the
saving ~ wear on those parts
The saving OF wear and tear" how

vantages Of the two speed axle lie in the
fact that with the high direct gear In
use, tho speed Of the car !s maintained

der cars has reached Its crest and In now
on its decline. At the Paris Salon only
one French manufacturer showed a six
and this n six OF very small power At
the Olympia show in London there was
no increase in the number of skies shown
over those of last year. but many new
types OF fours indicated an advance In
this field.
America will undoubtedly offer n much
more fertile field for six cylinder cars
than Europe, owing to the big contrast
between American roads and European
roads. In Europe n car of medium power
IN able to accomplish as much as car
Of big power can on the average Ameri-
can roads. But road conditions here
are steadily improving and tho same con-
ditions regarding travel will soon pre-
vail here as prevail in Europe.
Big power does not mean so much 10
the automobile owners now as II did
few years ago. The craze for speed has
dropped off IN n straight line. Now the
automobilist wants comfort, plenty of
ability without excess power. and lie
wants low operating cost.
II IL "A fact that one American manu-
facturer OF high grade four cylinder ears
is building ~ many fours as all manu-
facturcrs Of skies are binding combined.
And IL is also true that one prominent
manufacturer who for the last five years
has been combining his production TO skies
exclusively has now brought out a new
-four.
The six ylinher demand here will not
foil off as rapidly az II has done IN Eu-
rope. owing TO y large number Of roa-
sons. and tho manufacturer who IS build
ing skies now is playing safe II he is at
the same time building tours. Tho ratio
which we are following at the Ncle fac
tory In FIVE fours to every six. and we
/ feel that this scale Is n measure of the
actual demand, especially among cars Of
medium price.
Tho highly developed methods OF bal

grade -four cylinder cars makes II almost
! impossible for the average owner to tell
whether or not he IS riding IN n six cyliu-

T@ROM Information culled from the
~ various automobile announcements
most of which were made several
months ago. manufacturers have
devoted all their energies toward i'm
provements that make for convenience,
comfort and luxurious appointments
Certainly In view of these improvements
the buyer of a motor car cannot main
tain that the commercial success OF the
automobile business has made the manu-
facturcrs Indifferent toward customers
Most OF the important additions on this

forts OF the engineers, designers and
builders 20 increase the comfort OF the
user. and yet every improvement costs
money and snbtracts from the margin of
profit TO the maker and seller.
That tho manufacturers have disre-
garded this additional manufacturing cost
and to further prove that this years
product has little less than body construc-
ton upon which to bid for favor. II is
only necessary to pick up a newspaper or

Features that were new then and at that

As recently as two years ago engineers
were still experimenting with the me-
chancal design, materials and even with

ply in a report to the United States

Discussing the physical attributes
of the thousands OF men and boys
who apply for enlistment in the
army, navy and marine corps, he
says that many are strong, but
through excess Of weight (fat usu-
ally) prove relatively weak. Many
of the strong also are awkward, un-
responsive, ponderous and through
stiffening Of joints and contractures
of muscles, lack speed and agility.
