Enger Auto Go. to
Put Out Thousand
Dollar TWin-Six Car

Another big sensation OF the year In the
automobile industry is news that the
Enger Motor Car company has placed a
twelve-cylinder car on the market to
sell for the revolutionary price OF S1,095
Shipment OF demonstrators already has
been started and the company officials de-
clare that they are now prepared to make
deliveries to purchasers in a short time
The Enger company is widely known
as a successful manufacturer OF motor
cars. having developed a six-cyllnder car
which last season met with most fav-
orable reception from the public. The new
twelve-cylinder car will be built in its
entirety in the large Enger factory at
Cincinnati, where the experiments and
tests have been diligently conducted for
months.
The absolute secrecy which shrouded the
company's plans causes the announce
ment of the car TO come as a complete
surprise even to those closely connected
with the industry.
In appearance, the car is striking. with
long, low, racy lines. The wheebase Of
lis inches has given the designers ample
leeway for a roomy attractive body.
Painstaking care in the construction OF
the body is obvious to the observer
The predominating feature OF the motor
is its perfect smoothness and lack Of VI
brAtion at all engine speeds. This is due
largely to the small bore of the pistons
as well as to the fact that the reciprocal
ing parts are extremely light, being
about one-half the eight of those used
In other twelve-cylinder motors The
small piston weight and small explosions
give the car an unusually wide range of
nigh gear activity. Those who have rid
den In the Enger twin six" say that It
is remarkably flexible. running from high
speed TO one mile Der hour without a
change OF gear.

MILLIONS WASTED
In TIRE LOADING
Goodyear Expert Declares $57 600,
600 Squandered Through Fail
ure to Observe Precautions.
DEGREE VARIES WITH LOAD


The number OF automobiles IN this
country has now passed the two-million
mark. which indicates a tire output of
about 100000 for this year. Figured at
SIS each which is conservative average,
value of S9&OOO,OOO will represent the
years output.
Statistics which have just been COM
piled by the experimental department of
the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company
show that 80 per cent of this enormous
sum is being squandered by ill-advised
loading of tires. In other words, SS1,-
10000 will be wasted this year through
failure to observe proper precaution in
the matter. of loading tires.
Mr.. p. w. Litchfield, factory manager
of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber COM
pany, in his paper presented before the
Society of Automobile Engineers at the
summer conference, suggested a remedy
for this waste by the adoption of a slid
ing scale of carrying capacities and In
flation pressures. This is essentially the
adoption of the air pressure to the load
imposed on the tires.
Long experience has shown that these
loads and air pressures are the most
service and effective cushioning." says
Mr.. Lftchfield. THE quantities of COM
fort and easy riding must be recognized
as vital points, equally as important as
tire durability. Why are pneumatic tires
used at all If not for easy riding quail
tiles!
The degree to which a tire is flat
tened against the ground varies with the
n
definite percentage of tire dcflection
which bears direct relation to the in
flation pressure. Obviously, then,
scale Of relative carrying capacities and
initiation pressures, IL properly observed,
will tend to eliminate the enormous waste
now caused by haphazard methods of
loading and initiating.
Weigh Front and Rear. S
1.-The load properly assigned to tire
should be the actual load on the tire
with the car fully loaded. The actual
load on each tire can be ascertained by
weighing first the front of the fully
loaded car then the rear, dividing each
figure, by two to get the, load per tire.
j can then be inflated to the proper
pressure for that particular weight. as
indicated by the scale OF carrying ca
pacities and initiation pressures. A GER
tain tolerance in pressure should be al
lowed for leakage, but before the pres
sure drops 20 per cent the tire should be
pumped up again.
Realizing, of course. that every con-
sumner has a right to his own ideas as
TO what constitutes good service, and
that no practical initiation schedule will
cover all possible conditions of service.
the following schedule is offered and
recommended as a guide under normal
conditions:

HIGH GRADE GRAIN IN ELEvA-
TORS FROM FORT WILLIAM TO
ATLANTIC COAST SEIZED.
MUCH OWNED BY AMERICANS
Grain Taken Under Special War Act
Is Estimated at 100000 Bushels
TO Be Shipped to England,
France and Italy.

Ottawa, Ont, Nov. 30.--The Cana
dian government has Communicated
all high grade wheat In elevators from
Fort William on Lake Superior to the
Atlantic coast
The action was taken under the
special war act by the Canadian grain
commission. The wheat seized was
of grades No. l hard and Nos. /, 2 and
northern. 1t was the property of
grain shippers and millers. That
taken is all which on Saturday night
was in public elevators at Fort Will
liam, Port Arthur. Midland, Tifin.
Port McNichol, Collingwood, Goder-
ich. Kingston. Port Colborne, Pres.
colt, Quebec, st. John, Montreal and
Halifax.
Much Owned by Americans.
A revised estimate places the amount
at about 100000 bushels. A con.
siderable amount is the property of
American grain dealers.
The grain was taken so that grain
exchanges should be affected as little
as possible. II Is officially stated that
the price will be fairly adjusted and
the grain owners promptly paid by
the Canadian government.
1t Is estimated that there Is still
in Canada in the hands of farmers
and dealers west of Fort William
l50,oo0,0o0 bushels surplus of wheat
available for export.
II is expected that most of this
will be taken in the future for the
use of Great Britain, France and
Italy. The domestic supply of Rus
STA Is more than sufficient to meet
the needs of that country. Had the
Dardanelles been forced the surplus
of Russian wheat would have made
the present action unnecessary.

Washington, Dec. /. Assertions

ed by the administration.
The British government is scrutiniz-

eating the ownership of the Zealan-
dria, registered at the department of
commerce as the property of the
Fiske Trading company, a New York
corporation, Of which Julian v. Dicks
is president.
Called Dummy Corporation.
According to the treasury depart
ment, G. +. Lamb. deputy surveyor Of
customs at New York, reported after
an investigation that the money for
the purchase of the vessel was sup
piled by Imperial Privy Counselor
Heinrich Albert, commercial attache
to the German embassy, who main
tains headquarters in New York. The
New York customs official also report
ed to the treasury department that
the Fiske Trading company is a dunn
my corporation.
The movements of the Zealandia
have been mysterious for several
months. 1t came into public notice
when 1t sailed suddenly from Pensa-
cola, Fla, several weeks ago. 1t was
reported that it's sudden departure
was to pick up the interned German
navy officers who escaped from New
port News on the yacht Eclipse. The
Zealandia turned up a few days later
at Progreso, Yucatan, where it took
aboard cargo of hemp and hides.
ZeaIandia Escapes Warship.
A British cruiser searched the Zea-
tandfa off Progreso and compelled the
master to unload the hides. After
dark the Zealandia slipped past the
warship and escaped, arriving in New
York last Saturday.
The state department has asked the
British government to explain the
search of the Zealandia, which, &C
coriing to the Mexican authorities
took place within the three-mile limit.
German embassy officials say they
do not believe Doctor Albert furnished
the money for the purchase of the
ship.
