STEERING AN AUTO
ACCORDING TO RULE
Suggestions of Expert Outlining
Best Devices and Plans
for Autoists.

Each car is a law unto itself as far
as steering is concerned, according to
the Scotsman. but there are several
general principles which govern the
matter.
The wheels must be distinctly dished
inward it says. This not only makes
it easier for the driver to turn the
wheels. but makes it more difficult for
road distractions to communicate any
movement of them. Dishing the wheels
is in a way equivalent to making them
revolve on common central pivot. The
finer the point of the pivot the easier it
is to turn by means of the lever at
turn by pressure applied to the pivot
itself. The bearings of the stub-axles
must be of generous proportions-big
enough to give stability to the move
ment of the wheels without causing
friction. Small bearings soon become
slack on account of excessive wear
IF worm and sector are used they
must be a sufficiently good fit to OBJ
Viate backlaSh. AS matter of fact the
worm and sector type of steering gen
crates backlaSh by wear so rapidly that
1t Is time it was replaced by another
steering. Even the humble rack and
pinion type of steering gives better re-
suits so far as wear and freedom from
trouble are concerned. The actual po-
Sition of the road wheels on the chassis
must also be studied. Correct distri-
button of weight between front and
back wheels has a good deal to do with
stability of running. The best positions
can be ascertained only by experiment

HEAVY DEMAND FOR AUTOS.
Shipments for Month Of July Easily
Establish New High Record.

Continued heavy demand for auto
mobiles is reflected in the traffic Stats
tics of the National Automobile Cham
Der of Commerce. The figures indicate
shipments Of 1855 carloads in July,
compared with 1870 carloads in July
last year. These figures easily estab-
lish a new high record for automobile
shipments at this season. and the rail-
road earnings on this traffic are now
well over 100000 month.
During June Alb motor vehicles.
valued at $s.747.5oS. were exported
from the port of New York. according
to a report of the bureau of statistics
of the United States customs service.
This is nearly seven and half times
the exports for June. 1914, in which
only $50 automobiles, worth $1.15S, 101,
were shipped to foreign countries from
the same port. Shipments in June this
year were equal in value to the exports
in the best three months Of any pre-
vious year.

MOTOR CAR MAKERS HERE
HOPE TO Benefit BY WAR
Association Will Aim to Collate Re

For the first time since the war in
Europe started an association of man

fort to give to American motor car
makers the benefits of the experience
the warning nations are having in
solving their transportation problems.
The work of collecting and giving out
this information is in the hands of the

Some little time ago the association
began to collect statistics on the use in
Europe of the internal gear drive type
of rear aXleS for motor trucks for the
benefit of it's members in this country

Tests of Motor Trucks.

Realizing the unusual conditions
these men have, almost without excep-
ton, taken great pains to assist in the
securing of accurate data. AS an in
stance of the value of the information
received it may be said that one of the
reports was received from the member
of the general staff of European ma
ton whose particular duty it is to over
see the automobile and motor truck
branch of the military transport serv
ice. He has given detailed reports on
the various classes of trucks tested and
the results obtained
1t was intended at first to use these
reports for the benefit of the members
of the association. but when their
value was fully realized the manufac-
turers who comprise the organization
took the broad view that the Informal
ton should be placed at the disposal
of any American truck maker. Ger
tain parts of the reports which deal
with new Developments in internal
gear-drive axles are reserved for mem
bers of the association alone. but the
greater part is open to the truck
makers of the country.
