NEW YORK. July 9.-Rumors had

Cadillac Eight Always
Responds to Throttle

If. when you step suddenly and hard
on your foot throttle and the speed of
the car does not instantly increase, it
may mean that your carburetor cannot
supply at once enough gasoline to COM
pensate the inrush of extra air to the
motor. This is a fault more or less
common to carburetors; and the way in
which Cadillac engineers have over
come 1t is highly ingenious.
When the throttle is opened quick
ly the tendency is for the mixture to
become lean. for the reason that the
gasoline because of it's greater den
sity, is not drawn into the mixing
chamber as easily and as rapidly as
the air. This disproportion of gasoline
and air is seldom of more than momen-
tary duration, but even that is suffici-
ent to cause a skip or two or a choking
of the motor and keep it from develop
ing the power needed for rapid ac-
celeration.
The device evolved by the Cadillac
engineers is a skillful application of
the plunger pump principle. In this
case, however. the action is confined
to only one stroke of the plunger. When
the throttle is suddenly opened the
plunger automatically accelerates the
supply of gasoline through the spray
nozzle, thereby providing a correct ex-
plosive mixture for quick acceleration
and the getaway is instantaneous.

All-SeasOn Car Is
Economical to Own

George c. Hubbs, assistant general
salesmanager of Dodge Brothers, points
out that If a person uses his car all
the year around that he automatically
reduces the overhead on his investment
and that the car is therefor much
cheaper than when it is only used for
the summer months.
81 have often expressed the thought
that motorcar should be considered
from its utlitarian value rather than
as pleasure vehicle" says Mr.. Hubbs.
And in imDressing this point l have
tried TO show the real economy of buy
ing car which can be driven all the
year around. While the initial cost of
a car equipped with a top for CON
verting it into closed car for winter
driving is slightly higher, when you
figure the cost of all the year driving
compared with summer driving only.
the advantages of purchasing the car
with the closed top is very apparent"
Dodge Brothers closed car is the
ideal car for driving all the year
around. In winter you have a hand
somely fitted up closed car. When the
first warm days come the side panels
can be removed and it is a seml-open
car With the coming of real summer
the top can be taken off and the reg
ular open top substituted"

Demand For Cars
Is Countrywide

'what impresses me particularly in
connection with our shipments during
the winter months is not so much the
quantity of cars shipped. though we
have shipped every day to the limit
of our liberal production. as the uni
form distribution of shipments
throughout the United States" says
George S. Waite. Secretary of the
Grant Motor Company. I'm previous
years I have observed more or less
variation in shipments. Certain por-
tions of the country have absorbed
winter shipments to a larger extent
than others. but this winter. irrespec-
tive of climate or other conditions,
Grant cars have been distributed to
all points of the compass. There are
no holes or soft spots - just a strong
ly increasing demand from everywhere
as day succeeds day.

For three quarters of a century
Henry Spicer, of Dexter. n. Y, rode be-
hind the fastest horses he could buy
or raise. Now Mr.. Spicer owns a Jeffery
touring car and recently had the honor
of being the oldest citizen Of the State
of New York to take out an automobile
license. This is Mr.. Spicer's second
year as a motorist with 5000 miles to
his credit last season.
In his own words Mr. Spicer selected
the Jeffrv because "he liked the looks,
like the riding qualities and what he
heard about the stand-up-to -to-itiveness"
of the Jeffery. Some years ago, Mr..
Spicer owned Gold Dust, a Grand Cir

that "a man who had any business at

Dealers Approve of Paige
Plan For Credit Sales

Paige dealers throughout the coun-
try are now in receipt OF the prellm-
mary instruction for the plan where
by they will be enabled to sell Paige
cars on a partial payment and credit
basis to those buyers who wish to take
advantage of accommodations of this
nature.
President Jewett of the Paige Com
pany has already received a large num-
Der of letter from dealers who express
their delight and satisfaction with the
stTuctive and conservative nature in
keeping with the dignity of the prod
uct and the nature of the business
which IL is intended to serve.
The dealers also say they believe the

Jewett, why Paige buyers should not

Many of these dealers declare they

The plan. however, cannot be put
underway until the dealer is supplied
with various forms and documents
necessary for such an undertaking.
Each state has different laws govern

has to be supplied with blanks and
documents in conformity with the laws
peculiar to his locality.

Some Motors Use Less
Gasoline Than Others

With gasoline constantly ascending
in price and descending in quolity, 1t
has become necessary for motorists to
take steps to offset the disadvantages
of expensive and inefficient fuel.
George B. Zech, Buick dealer at Har-
risburg. Pa, said yesterday, with gas
oline at it's present high price. the ad-
vantage of the Valve-in- Head type of
motor is more pronounced. This motor,
as is we'll known, conserves and uses
n higher percentage of the energy con-
tanned in fuel than any other type of
gasoline motor. The absence of valve
pockets in this motor means that there
is less heat to escape into the water
iacketed area surrounding the cylin-
ders, and as heat and power are one
and the same thing In motorcar oper-
alton 1T can very readily be seen that
the Valve-in- Head motor bears a very
direct relation to the pocketbook of the
automobile user. And as the price of
gasoline goes up this advantage of the
e-in-Head type of motor becomes
increasingly apparent
I'm all types of motors except the
Valve i'm Head there is an absolute
waste of power, which means a waste
of fuel, and this waste has been care
fully computed by Buick engineers to
be in the neighborhood of fifteen to
twenty per cent. of the entire energy

Hundreds of users of the five-pas-
senger Buick touring car have report
ed gasoline mileage averaging ali the
way from seventeen to twenty-three
miles per gallon. This is exceptional
iy high 1t is plain therefore, that
while little can be done toward keep
ing the price of gasoline down, these
high prices can be offset, in very
large measure. by using the type of car
which makes the utmost use of the fuel
supplied. The higher gasoline is in

as much power be derived from it as

HOW LONG, o LORD,
HOW LONGi

The American Federation of Labor,
like all other organizations of large
membership in this country, is made
up of men of all political parties. It's
president, however, Samuel Gompers,
is a ~naturalized citizen, of English
origin and of very pronounced DEM
ocratic procliyities and activities.
Barring one year, he has been presi-
dent of the Federation since 1882;
and in that capacity he is reputed to
draw a salary of $500 a year-to
which all members of the Federation,
Republican, Democratic, Socialist or
what-not, contribute.
Yet Mr.. Gompers, in his capacity
as president of the Federation-for
he never d~ifferentiates between his
personal and his official quality
claims the right to mount the Demo
cratic stump, to assail Republican
candidates for office and to demand
that members of the Federation vote
en- masse for Democratic candidates.
1t is to the credit of the Federation
that the partisan efforts of their
president have so slight an effect.
But we wonder how long the anti
Democratic members Of the organiza-
ton, whose number cannot be negli-
gible, intend to permit their organi-
zation to be made a party football
for the benefit Of their president and
for that of the political party which
he finds it most e~xpedient to support.
Mr.. Gompers is paid a salary large
enough to warrant his full time be-
ing given to the American Federation
of Labor and to its affairs. If he
does not find his days full of these
matters, then his salary should be
reduced.
We have heard a good deal of late
about the hyphenates-a class which
is more easily named than described,
we imagine-and earnest efforts have
been made to destroy the hyphen in
u political life. How long will the
American Federation of Labor en-
dure the hyphen which connects
their president with the Democratic
party? Will they destroy that hyphen
or the one which connects Mr.. Com
pers to his snug salary of $500 a
year?
