READY FOR MOTOR SHOW"
Movie" Performance at Columbia
Theater Today and Tonight.

All arrangements have been COM
pleted for the motor show, under the
auspices of the National Capital Motor
Cycle Club, to be given today at the
Columbia Theater at 3 and pm. A
slight change will be made in the pro-
gram at the evening performance.
The program includes films of mill
tary motor trucks, military aeroplanes
and dirigibles in operation in the field.
The latest addition to the United States
Army, the Jeffery-four- drive,
will be shown in army tests and ma
neuvers. A large number of military
men have been invited to witness the
film exhibition.
There will also be shown several
thousand feet of films, taken at the
Ford, Jeffery. Studebaker and Maxwell
pants of the various processes in the
construction of an automobile from the
raw material to the finished car. A mo-
tor cycle section has also been ar
ranged showing the manufacture OF the
Indian motor cycle and the method OF
testing on a circular track.
Another section of the show will
show thrilling motor contests held dur
ing the past year. Including the hill
climb of the National Capital Motor
Cycle Club on the Nichols avenue hill
this city, Thanksgiving day, and the
7O0-mile San Diego-to-Phoenix endur-
ance run, won by Barney Oldheld.

UNUSUAL MAXWELL DISPLAY.
Motor Will Be Torn Down and Built
Up by Mechanic.

AS an evidence of the confidence
which the Maxwell Motor Company has
in it's product, arrangements are now
being completed for giving a unique
window display at the salesroom of
H. B. Leary, jr, 1921 14th street north
west, the local Maxwell representative.
Representatives will come on here
from the factory to participate in the
demonstration.
The demonstration consists of
transfer of simply one unit of motor
car construction from the factory to
a public show window. where every
step in the operation of tearing down
and building UP an automobile motor
is shown right before observers. To
make the test still more impressive
and valuable the motor is taken out of
the car. privately owned, and which
has been run 10000 miles or more, and
is placed on a work bench in the show
window. in full view of the street.
A factory mechanic in overalls and
merely equipped with the same kit of
tools that come with Maxwell cars as
regular equipment, begins with the
outside of the motor to tear it down.
He knows absolutely nothing about the
condition of the inside of the motor
until he reaches it. After the motor
is torn entirely down and every op-
portunity has been given the specta-
tors to ask the mechanic questions
about the different steps of the work,
the mechanic reverses his work and
starts to build the motor up again.

Secretary Of State of New
York Defends Motor Vehicles
Against Criticism.
ONE DEATH TO EVERY
$500, ,0O0-MILE RUN
Common Delusion, He Declares, That
They Are the Most Dangerous
Form of Traffic.

For some time past there has exist
ed certain agitation against motor
vehicles on the ground that they cause
more accidents than other vehicles.
said Francis NJ. Hugo, secretary of
state for New York. Every one de-
sires to lessen the number of accidents
caused by all forms of locomotion, but
prejudiced statements have been made,
and many people are still inclined to
place them on the same basis if they
were tested evidence. While 1T is. of
course, impossible to contradict every
misstatement, nevertheless some sta
tistics may be presented for comment
and criticism.
First of all attention is drawn to
the common delusion, often misquoted
as fact, that motor cars are the most
dangerous form of traffic because they
kill and injure more persons per
vehicle. 1t is obvious that on any COM
parison everything depends not upon
the number of vehicles, but upon
the distance run by different vehicles
in the day. week, month or year For
instance. a four-wheeled cab which
runs say, for twelve miles day 1ncurs,
apart from other consideration, less
risk than notorious which is driven
125 miles a day.
Other Considerations, He Says.
There are other considerations, such
as congested traffic points where risk
of accidents is great as compared with
districts where the streets are wide.
with little traffic. 1t is. therefore, falla
cious to compare statistics of accidents
upon the number of vehicles only with
out taking other circumstances into
consideration. When it is stated, as 1t
frequently has been, that motor We
deadly than any other forms of loco
motion, such assertion must be dis
counted.
Again. common statement has
been that the number of accidents
caused by motor vehicles has lately in
creased out of all due proportion to the
increase in their number, and with
reference to this it may be pointed out
that about seven years ago. when 25
per cent of the traffic was mechanical
and IS per cent horse drawn, it was
natural that the proportion of acci-
dents attributable to motor cars
should be in about the same ratio.
Now, however. the proportion is en-
tirely reversed, and motor cars form
over 20 per cent of the total traffic.
The number of accidents caused by
motor vehicles has, therefore, increased
every year. and soon they will reach
100 per cent, for there will be no other
kind of vehicle left. Already, in Ger
tain thoroughfares in the larger cities,
the motor traffic forms over 80 per
cent of the total
