BEEF BOSSES FAVORED IS SMALL
FELLOWS CHARGE
Charges that government officials
have Disseminated in favor of the
big packers in handling the foot and
mouth disease problem were made by
about 400 smaller commission men
and spectators in live stock at
meeting of protest at the Traders
Exchange this afternoon. .
Representatives of the commission
men and spectators attended the
meeting. Their business is to buy live
stock upon it's arrival in Chicago and
sell it to eastern houses or hold it
for higher prices.
'"The government order that for
bids the shipping of cattle from Chi
cago puts 500 men out of business
and operates for the benefit of the
Chicago packers" said C. H. Martin.
eff cattle comes to Chicago in disin-
fected cars from areas not under
quarantine, why aren't we permitted
to ship the same cattle east in disin-
fected cars
The commission men charged that |
as a result of the government order |
the packers now have supreme con-
troll over market prices. Live stock |
shipped to the Chicago market must |
be sold at the prices offered by the |
packers, they declared, because out
siders were virtually ruled out of the |
bidding, having no market in which
to resell. Shippers who send their
stock to Chicago, they said, must ac-
cept the packers bids or their live
stock will be condemned after being
held here for 36 hours.

LUBRICATION IS
IMPORTANT PART
OF AUTO DRIVING
Engineer Tells of Parts That Re.
quire Attention.
WILL OBVIATE TROUBLE
Failure Means Squeaky Parts
and May Be Cause of
Bad Accident.
~ GEORGE ". DURHAM Chalmers,

| honestly believe that one-half OF the
troubles experienced by drivers OF motor
cars are due to defective fabrication. Not
because the amateur drivers of automo-
biles lack intelligence. but because. as n
general rule. they are people unfamiliar
with machinery. fabrication is the most
neglected phase Of automobile care, and
this in spite of the fact that fabrication
is really the most important item I'm keep
ing motor car in good running order.
Squeaks and rattles are not the only
results Of failure properly TO lubricate
woI king parts. Grease and oil have two
main functions in any piece Of machinery.
First, TO overcome undue friction: second.
TO keep the rapidly moving parts cooled.
II YOU fail to lubricate your car you
will probably get squeaks, but. more i'm
portant. YOU will get loss Of power. and
If you neglect fabrication too greatly the
motor will absolutely cease to perform its
function. At the Chalmers factory we
have one general rule-when in doubt,
lubricate.
lt is not hard to keep car properly
oiled and creased. \ little system will
insure that every part which needs lubri-
cation receives it regularly. Here are the
principal parts of car which require at
tention:
Once each day, or about every one hun
dred miles, the crank case should be ex-
amned to insure that oil comes up TO the
level of the top try cock. Simply add new
motor oil whenever the oil level falls be-
low this point. The steering gear knuckle
grease cups and steering cross rod grease
cups should each receive one complete
/ turn.
Faulty fabrication of the steering gear is
absolutely suicidal, and II requires only
the simple turning of grease cup each
day practically TO insure that you viii
never be placed i'm danger from the failure
OF your steering mechanism TO operate
All spring bolt grease cups should bt
given a couple OF complete turns each
day The springs take the entire joltins
Of the car. Squeaks develop In them yer,
rapidly, so their fabrication is highly i'm
| portant.
; The speedometer driving gears shoult
also receive attention daily. The speed
ometer becomes useless If the drivint
gears bind from undue friction through
| insufficient fabrication. The wheel hubs
which must work hard whenever the ca
is in motion. should receive from at leas
ten to fifteen drops of motor oil day.
About twice week the fan hub SHOULD
be given a few drops Of motor oil AT thu
same time the pump shaft grease cup!
and steering gear grease cups should b'
given two complete turns. During this In
spection see that the steering wheel ant
steering column each receive ten to nj
teen drops Of motor OIL

NEW BODIES ARE GRACEFUL
Meet Taste of Fastidious
BUYER. Saws Hudson Man.

Every automobile buyer is an artist,
asserts &. C. Winninghan. sales and ad-
vertising manager OF the Hudson Motor
Car Company Appreciation OF the
beautiful i'm motor car characterizes 30
per cent Of owners and owners TO be.
That partially explains the great popu-
laritv of the new stream line body de-
signs
People have long been asking why it
vas necessary TO have that abrupt break
A the dash. There seemed no reason for
il. and It certainly was not beautiful or
graceful OF course, it was easier to
build. An6 with many other problems
pressing for solution motor car builders
felt they had their hands full. Our engi-
neers and designers spent a long time in
investigating and experimenting before
We succeeded in setting pattern that
pleased us.
Now. when We hear the expressions or
visitors 10 the exhibit of Hudson cars at
the Palace show we believe we have
satisfied the beauty loving eye of those
who are attracted by grace and SYM
metry. The first thing one sees in an
automobile is the general outline of the
car. Then the eye is attracted by the de-
tails of color finish. upholstering and
other features. Women practically never
consider the motor. They buy that on the
reputation of the manufacturer.

A DRAWING ROOM CAR
Peerless Sedan One of the Most
Striking at Show.

The salon sedan. a car with an interior
resembling a cosey and luxuriousiy fur
nished drawing room. is the feature Of
the Peerless exhibit at the Palace show.
The car is fit successor TO the famous
colonial brougham OF last season.
In the body there are no seats of the
ordinary motor car type. but chairs are
used instead. These are adapted from the
Georgian period and were designed and
built by the RorheImer- Brooks Art
Studios They have mahogany frames and
are upholstered with heavy figured wool
tapestry and have extra cushions of Eng
fish down.
In fact, the carefully harmonized and
tasteful fittings of the tiny salon" into
which the interior has been made have
all been imported from the leading work
shops Of Europe They have been ar
ranged with striking originality to produce
a motor car that is wholly novel.

STREAM LINE EXPLAINED
Oakland Official Comments on
Latest Body Type.

George T.. Daniels, vlce-president OF the
Oakland Company. comes forward WIN
the first plain definition OF the term
STREAM line" and inasmuch az TINS
STYLE of body is being brought out by a
number Of manufacturers, the explana-
ton will not only be of interest TO pros
nactive purchasers but TO automobile own
ers in general. Mr. Daniels says:
Tine term stream line was originally
used by ship builders and designers Oh
turbines and signifed the path OF least
resistance, which Is followed by water
particle when it is forced or detected by
an object. A stream line automooile
body is so shaped as-to cause the least
resistance Of the air when car travels

SMALL CARS IN FAVOR
Little Maxwell a Popular IA
yorite at the Show.

For many years il has been predicted
that the lower priced automooiies were
what the American public wanted ana
Tint thousands OF these automobiles
would be sold. Smaller cars OF various
experimental types were built put ie"
have ever made much progress ana SOON
or or later have disappeared from the
market.
This wear. however, it seems TO be dill
ferent, and there is great interest mani
tested in the exhibits of small cars
Ahout each booth where there is small
car selling UP to $3.50 the crowd gathers
and at times IT is difficult TO get look al
the new productions
There are a number OF cars Of the
smaller type which are being SHOWN TINS
wear for the first time. They are divldeo
into two distinct classes-smaller sized
automobiles and cycle cars. The cycle
cars are built with narrow tread. low
wheels and are mostly an enlarged edl-
ton of a motorcycle. The small automo-
biles are Just like the big touring cars
but are lighter in weight, carry from TWO
10 five people comfortably and can be
driven anywhere any automobile can 60
Probably the largest exhibit of these
small automobiles is that Of the Maxweii
Motor Company, which is utilizing a large
space for the display OF these cars alone
The car is made in several types, but the
touring car is the one that is attracting
the most attention.
Charles Redden, general sales manager
OF the company, was very optimistic at
the show yesterday. He says that from
all indications il will be necessary TO
make a shipment of at least two train
loads into the Eastern territory 10 take
care OF the cars sold during the present
show.

SPRING OILS ITSELF
Detroit Concern Uvercomes
Wear in Simple Manner.

Visitors to the automobile show have
shown much interest In the self-ubricat-
inc feature Of the Detroit springs II IL
q point entirely new In automobile spring
manufacture and represents the applica-
ton Of new idea TO an established
product. Mason = Rumnoy, spring engi-
neer Of the Detroit Steel Products COM
pany. gives an explanation Of the reason
Tor his solf-lubricating spring and the
manner IN which IL is constructed. he
says
An ordinary spring after Few
months usage begins to squeak. TINS
squeaking is the result Of lack OF lubrica-
ton between the leaves The direct
consequence is great increase Of friction
between the leaves. which adds to the
stiffness of the spring and. therefore. de-
stroys much OF its resiliency. The spring
is hard and jolly.
There is nothing more unpleasant than
to ride along n road and hear squeak
for every stone. bump or crossNalk, or
every slight vibration OF the car All
automobile manufacturers want spring
silence We have overcome the noise
and friction difficulty in the Detroit steer
spring by placing n small cup or cavity
al the ends Of the leaves. These, being
filed with grease. form reservoirs which
constantly lubricate the leaves and so re-
move the Objectionable noise.
The fact that show visitors are giving
more attention &c the question OF springs
than they ever did before Is interesting
and significant The spring was long
neglected It's importance not only III
increasing the comfort Of passengers ana
promoting economy OF car upkeep. but
also in lengthening the life Of the car
was formerly overlooked Now II Is
generally recognized fact that an otner-
wise good car cannot long remain good
unless IL is mounted on good springs.
