INSURING AUTO OUTPUT
Oldsmobile Official Describes
Most Efficient System.

That there are from 1000 10 $500
parts in the modern automobile, and
that the absence Of any one Of these
parts may delay the manufacturing OF
finished cars, is pointed out By Z. Yer
Linden, production manager Of the
Oldsmobile plants, as illustrating the
importance of business methods IN
motorcar factories.
What is known as the graphic sys-
TEN of tracing the production OF cars
from the procuring of raw materials to
their ultimate completion is credited
by Yer Linden with being particularly
desirable, because of its simplicity and
accuracy. This system, which enables
the factory superintendent 20 deter
mine the condition of stocks and prog
ress Of production in different depart
ments at a glance, consists Of nothing
more than a large sheet Of cardboard
over which a series of pins are moved
about by an operator TO whom the fore
man and stock clerks report.
properly carried out, this system
will not permit of a tie-up In produc-
tion through lack Of materials asserts
Mr. Yer Linden, "and as far as my
knowledge goes IL is the simplest sys-
tenn yet devised. IL requires little labor
TO operate, and accounts correctly for
every piece of material down 20 lock
washers and screws"
The excellence Of this system. Mr..
Yer Linden says, accounts in a large
measure for the promptness with which
Oldsmobile light fours have been sup
piled to dealers and purchasers.

NEW SPEEDWAY RULES
Thirty three Cars Will Be Al.
lowed in Next Big Race.

indianapolis, Nov. 2l.-The 1915 rae
ing campaign of the indianapolis motor
speedway is open, entry blanks for the
next 500-mile race, May 29, having been
distributed among manufacturers and
private owners here and abroad this
week 10 the number of 900. Despite
the war, no scarcity of entries is an
ticipated, Italy alone being counted
on 10 produce at least six foreign nom
nations.
Specifications for the next contest
have been much changed from years
previous, the chief revisions being the
reduction of motor dimensions by one
third, or from 450 TO 800 cubic inches,
and the raising of the speed minimum
20 eighty miles. With smaller machines
better results are expected. This is the
fundamental motive of the racing game
The number of starters has been
raised TO thirty-three, as compared
with thirty of other years. This is the
full capacity allotted the track under
the rulings Of the American Automo-
bile Association, which specify limit
of one car TO every 400 feet of track.
Speed trials 70 determine the final
field will be held ten days ahead of the
race, in the inverse order of entry, the
fastest thirty-three being eligible. In
the event of more than three cars Of
one make 20 enter, the fastest three
will be admitted.
Regulations as TO the physical condi-
tion Of drivers and the mechanical
soundness OF cars will be more rgidly
enforced next year than ever before
The front axles Of all machines must
thus be entirely new two days before
the race. This is to guard against pos
sibility Of accident. due TO crystallza-
tion or other defect. Any car spilling
an excess Of oil on the track will, for
like reasons. be disqualified.

MAKES MILEAGE RECORD
Oakland Car Covers TO
Miles on One Gallon.

Twenty-eight and seven-tenths miles
on gallon of gasolene is the official
accompli shment of an Oakland model
"37" four-cylinder car last week. When
Il is considered that three miles of the
distance were over q country gravel
road and six miles through city traffic
the record becomes even more remark
able.
During the run through Detroit the
car was twice stopped for traffic, and
an extra consumption of gas through
first and intermediate driving naturally
pulled down the final figures, and these
two occasions were the only times the
clutch was slipped. 1t was drive all
the way.
Weather conditions were anything
but favorable. The thermometer reg
istered at an average of 80 degrees,
and the final stage OF the test was after
dusk. when cold and damp atmospheric
conditions were against perfect car
buretion.
Before starting the gas measure Of
one gallon in the auxiliary tank was
certified 10 by the Detroit city sealer.
The specdometer was tested and certi-
fed 10 by the Stewart speedometer eX-
pert. The gas used tested 90 Beaume
and was fed from the one gallon aux
iliary tank on the running board. Tae

register of 1876 degrees with very
slight variation throughout the entire

meets with general approval was quite
evident from the remarks that could
be heard at all times.
In addition 10 the sales that had
been made before even the price or
type of car had been disclosed, the
Colt-Stratton Company during the week
made large number of actual sales
and has booked hundreds Of demon
strations.
The car now on the floor is the only
one that has been received so far, and
the firms members have not cared TO
disappoint visitors by allowing the car
TO be taken out. 1t will be kept on
view for another week Demonstra-
tions will begin on December 1, and IL
is quite possible by that time that
additional cars will have reached here,
so that the latest offering may be seen
both in action and on the floor.
The consensus OF opinion among mo-
torists is that the Dodge car repre-
sents a new standard in values, while
introducing several features of refine
ment not hitherto associated with cars

SUSPENDS GARAGE LAW
State Fire Marshal Asks Auto
Men for Suggestions.

Through the efforts Of the Automo-
bile Trade Association Of New York
State, the State Fire Marshal has con-
sented 10 postpone the enforcement OF
the new garage regulations issued by
his department which were 20 have
gone into effect on December ].
This agreement was made al con-
ference held in Albany on Wednesday,
November IS, between the State Fire
Marshal and q committee from the
Automobile Trade Association headed
by the president, r. n. Johnston. At
this conference those representing the
automobile interests pointed out the
many ways in which the new regula-
tions are unfair, impracticable, and
would result in hardships TO many
hundreds Of garage owners throughout
the state.
The State Fire Marshal evidently
realized the justice Of many OF these
criticisms. as he not only agreed 20
suspend their enforcement but he also
invited the committee 10 suggest new
set Of regulations which would meet
with the approval of the automobile
trade.

EFFECTS OF WAR
ON TIRE INDUSTRY
Goodrich Stock in France
Placed Under RequiSi-
ton by Government.

War and its effect on the tire in
dustry of Europe are graphically de-
scribed by Arthur Lumsden, general
manager of the French and English
auxiliaries Of the B. f. Goodrich Com
pany, Of Akron, Ohio.
"Our men had been paid as usual at
noon on the Saturday France mobilized
her army" Mr.. Lumsden says. "At
4:30 o'clock the notices were issued
putting the nation on a war basis. As
our pay list is made up on Wednesday
evening arrangements we're made for
the cashier 10 be at the Office on Sun
day morning at o'clock in order that
the men who were going to the front
could collect their arrears Of wages. In
this way every man who left our works
TO 90 on active service went away
fully paid.
con Monday morning I was curious
70 see what the conditions would be
at the factory. We found we had
eighty men who were not eligible for
active service. These men included
most of those engaged in the band tire
department According 20 previous
arrangement with the French govern
ment. this department went under
military coitrol automatically as soon
as war was declared, and we were put
under an obligation TO produce certain
ouantitie of tires for army trucks.
"This arrangement, it should be ex-
blamed. is a part of the French army
subsidy scheme. A couple Of years ago
Goodrich tires were admitted as part
of the equipment of army subsidy
trucks. Only the fact that the Good
rich company actually manufactures in
France, and has on its French board
Of directors men who have military re-
sponsibilites under the French law,
enabled this arrangement 70 be made.
practically our entire stock OF tires,
both at the factory and at the Paris
stores, was requisitioned by the gov
ernment."
