% to u, Promises More Than
Technical Interest.

While automobile manufacturers are
busy paving the way for 1915 designs,
their engineers are already beginning to
consider features that may be developed
for the products OF 1916. and in some in
stances experimental work Is already un-
der way that Is not expected to bear d.
rect fruit for at least two years. For this
reason the program of the summer meet
ing OF the Society of Automobile Engi-
neers, which Is to be held at Cape May,
y. J.. June . TO q. promises more than
usual technical interest. while such of
the papers and discussions as find their
way into print will doubtless contain
much of suggestive value to the shnrp-
eyed reader.
Among the subjects which have Just
been disclosed by Chairman Arthur B.
Gunner of tho general committee on ar
are. Suggested Specihca-
tons for Highest Possible Quality Six
cylinder Classics fo- America, by \.
Ludlow Clayden. editor of the Automo-
bile Engineer. Of London, and Modern
European Tendencies" by Robert W. \.
Brewer. the well-knovn British consult
ing engineer. Both OF these papers are
Of remarkable value because American
automobile makers are still disposed 10
keep their products in tune with foreign
for the reason that in considering export
possibilities the expectations of foreign
buyers must be clearly understood.
Messrs. Clayden and Brewer are men,
bers of the S. a. f. as well as the 1nsti-
tuition of Automobile Engineers of Eng
land. Both are keen-sighted and able OBJ
servers OF conditions and requirements.
and their views are certain to be regard
ed with deepest interest.

of any Kansans succumbing to 1t. The
