George ]. Muley, Of Philadelphia, who
was formerly in the tire business In
Washington, was in the city for few
hours yesterday.
The high price of gasoline is not the
only thing which is worrying automo-
bile manufacturers today. and which will
soon come close to the automobile dealer
and owner
1t is beginning to be understood that
the shortage of material this year will
interfere seriously with production on the
very large orders which most sutomo-
bile and accessory manufacturers have
received, unless they have made special
preparations to be assured of their raw
material
The Ffndeisen & Kropf Manufacturing
Company, makers of the Rayheld car
bureter, have been experiencing record
breaking sales within the last few
months, which they ascribe not only to
the well-known merits OF their carbure-
ter, but also to the rise in the prise OF
gasoline. The high price of gasoline has
pushed sales to the limit, but the Ray
field people say that, owning their own
smelter and foundry, with their own
tool and pattern departments. they are
well fortified against shortage of ma
terials, and that their customers can be
sure Of getting their csrbureters on time.
Another speed record has fallen before
the Cadillac Eight. this being for the
Los Angeles Bakersfield round trip. 126
miles each way. The new mark for the
distance, FIVE hours and forty minutes, is
one hour and. twenty-four minutes under
the best previous motor car record for
this run, recently made by a twelve
cylinder car. .ssr. ~
The car was driven by Ted Beaudet
Thick fog obscured the mountain road
way, which was slippery to the point Of
being dangerous. In spite of these diff
culties, and the loss of seven minutes on
account of tire trouble the run to
Bakersfield was completed In two hours
and forty-nine minutes. The time for
the return was two hours and f1fty-one
minutes, only two minutes longer-evi-
dence Of consistent driving under .ad-
verse conditions. The twelve-cyiinder car
had made the trip from Los Angeles to
Bakersfield and return in Eseven hours
and four minutes, which was the best
previous record up to the time of the
Cadfllao's performance. &
1t Is less than a year since a Cadillac
Eight, with the same driver, made the
run from Los Angeles to San Francisco
In twelve hours and ten minutes, beating
by one hour and thfrty-five minutes the
train known as the Lark. the fastest on
