strongly Interested in aviation afralrs,
and tests with the view of proving the
value of the twelVe-cylinder motor Tor
aeroplane use have been in progress
for six months.
In anticipation of the greater use OF
the aeroplane for touring purposes the
field will be made available for the
comfort and convenience of aero tour
lists. and probably will be equipped with
hangers, repair shops, and supply sJa-

Experimental aeroplanes will be ftted

BOOM IS PREDICTED
FOR AMERICAN AUTO
Motor Car Manufacturers Ex-
pect Great Wave of Pros
perity After War.
By JOHN N. WILLYS.

The effect of the European war on
the future of the automobile industry
is question that is being discussed
freely by motor car manufacturers.
have found that the consensus OF opin-
ion among the big producers in this
country is that the end OF the great
struggle will mark the beginning of a
new era of prosperity for American
cars.
The European war already has created
boom in the American motor car mar
ket. 1t has opened entirely new fields
all over the world for American-b built
cars. Much of this territory was for
merly supplied by foreign automobile
makers. But with the outbreak of the
war and the subsequent taking over OF
the foreign factories for building war
supplies. this enormous field was left
wide~open to American manufacturers.
And now that these new buyers have
discovered the great advantages offered
by American cars at any price. they will
never entirely abandon this country 5
trade TO go back to foreign makers at
the close of the war.
The quantity production methods now
in vogue in this country have enabled
manufacturers TO put the maximum OF
quality into their product at a minimum
cost. The motor cars that are being
manufactured in the big American
plants today are better made. give bet
ter service. and sell at approximately
half the price that they did few wears
ago.
On the other hand. the foreign makers
have limited their productions to d
comparatively small number of cars
each year. And it makes no difference
whether the product be motor cars oil
lead pencils. the factory that has The
facilities for manufacturing in large
quantities is the one that turns out the
best and lowest priced article.

FATHER
OF EASY RIDING CAR
CantiIever Spring in Automobile
Modern Application of An
Cient Greeks Discovery.

Archimedes is the father Of easy rid
ing in an automobile.
Archimedes doesn't know IT, and most
people who are enjoying the comforts
of easy riding haven't the least idea
of it. But when ne discovered the prIn-
ciple of the lever he solved the prob
lem, which presented itself to engineers
a couple of thousand years later, of
making IL possible for a heavy vehicle
to travel at a great speed over indif-
ferent roads without any discomfort
to those in the vehicle.
The modern application of the ancient
Greeks discovery is the cantilever
spring.
Now, the cantilever spring in itself is
a good thing. But there are varieties
of ways of making application of this
good thing to automobiles. Fred w.
Haines, president and general manager
of the Regal Motor Car Company, in a
recent interview said:
THE average motor car manufacturer
figures that the ideal point for spring
suspension would be midway between
the two ends. The old idea that this
added strength to the springs has been
largely exploded. AS matter of fact,
the true resiliency OF a spring only
shows itself when the fulcrum point Is
off center. In other words, the power
arm and the weight arm must have a
certain relationship with each other In
order to do their work most effectively.
This relationship is highly important:
1t is often overlooked and often worked
out wrong That is one thing about the
Regal cantiliver which We think makes
it better than any other application OF
this principle. 1t alone, over all other
spring models, makes the use OF shock
absorber unnecessary. One other de-
tail usually overlooked is the angle at
which these springs are set, This angle
makes all the difference between action
and reaction of the springs. 1t IS one
of the distinctive features of the Regal.
We have worked il out with the utmost
care by theory and experiment Maybe
old Archimedes could improve on the
use of the cantilever in the Regal. but

Senate Tries to Cut Military Appro-

Washington, July 23.-More than
thirty-six million dollars for foreign
pay service, maintenance, transporta-
tion and other expenses provided in
anticipation of a Mexican campaign
was voted out of the army appropria-
ton bill in the Senate yesterday.
This action was taken on recon-

Chairman Chamberlain said there now
seemed little likelihood of a conflict
and the possibility of the National
Guard crossing the border seemed re-
mote.
Senator Lee of Maryland opposed
this action, asserting that the danger
of a conflict was not passed. Senators
Lee and Chamberlain differed on the
number of guardsmen on the border.
Senator Lee said there were $1,000
already on the border and $4,000, in
the state mobilization camps. SEN
ator Chamberlain said Senator Lees
figures were not correct, but he de-
clined to give the war Department.
