CADILLAC EIGHT
 SETS BIG RECORD

Repeatedly. in various parts of the country, stock models of the Cadillac eight have set fast road records, rac- ing against time and against railroad trains, over dangerous mountain roads and level plains. One of the early achievements was last June. when one of these cars was driven from Los Angeles to San Francisco in competi tion with the Southern Pacific's fast est train between the two cities, known as the Lark Most of the Cad illac's trip of 492 miles was made in the dark. at an average speed of bet ter than 40 miles per hour over dan gerous mountain roads. The train was beaten by a margin of one hour and 35 minutes.
 Soon afterward came word of the hours the time over the 125 miles from Butte to Missoula, Mont. in the Yell lowstone trail relay run. This distance was made in 3 hours and 52 minutes, at an average speed of 32.3 miles an hour as against the best previous mo- tor car record of hours. 40 min- utes
 In quick succession followed the race from Denver to Cheyenne between g. Union Pacific special train and Cad lilac Eight. the train travelling 112 miles to the Cadillacs 116 miles. Never theless, the car arrived two minutes before the train, having averaged about 50 miles an hour to make the run in hours, 13 minutes.

perfecting the armor of ships that their energies will be.
 The torpedo, they contend, is of no great account in the armament of the capital ship and it is doubtful whether the battleship and battle cruiser of the future will be fitted with torpedo tubes
 Prof. T. B Abell, professor of naval architecture at Liverpool university, de- c,ares emphatically that the experiences of the war have given conclusive argu- ments in favor of the all big gun ship and has fully justified the policy which Admiral Low Fisher initiated in the conception of the dreadnought. Profess sor Abell declares that secondary arma- ment of battleships is now rendered prac- tically useless.
 In the pre-dreadnought era battleships were armored with 12-inch guns as pris mary armament, 9.2 and 6-inch guns as secondary armament and often a large T umber of smaller weapons, The Russo Japanese war. however, demonstrated the uselessness of this so-called secondary armament, and out of the Russo-Japanese war was evolved the dreadnought, a

heavily armed craft mounting ten 12-inch and "A 12-pounder guns.
 While the 6-inch gun was and often is of use in repelling attack of torpedo craft, with the increased armament of de- stroyers and the increased striking range of the torpedo, some cloud is cast upon the wisdom of burdening ship with G. inch guns and the argument is advanced that a range of four miles, which is the effective range of the modern torpedo, the 6-inch weapon would not prove very effective against destroyer.

past three years have seen this car worked out to a state as nearly approach ing perfection as could reasonably be hoped for in a piece of mechanism. The only serious difficulty encountered at the factory thus far has been the matter of obtaining sufficient box cars of the re- quired sizes to make shipments most ad- vantageously.
 There is an automobile shortage for 1916 There is no doubt about that Hi Gear is right, and the shortage is going to become more pronounced as the real spring months arrive. But if there is any Chandler shortage later on, 1t will be because the Chandler factory and Chandler dealers are doing more business than anybody could reasonably have an ticipated.'
