DEMAND IS GREAT
FOR new HUDSON
Super-s six Awakening I'm
precedented Interest in
the Motor World.

Greater and greater grows the de-
mand for the Hudson Super-Six until
il Is predicted that this summer the
sales rooms where this popular car is
sold will look like a department c.ore

You'd all precedent and record sales
are promised for the year 1918. The
reason? One OF those which can lie
cited is that in its patented motor the
Super-Six offers something no other
motor car in the world can offer to
the buyer. Demonstrating the ae-
celerative powers of this car is another
of the fine points which are always
brought out. In acceIerating from low
speeds up to the point where the car
reaches a out Is miles an hour or
more, the aeceleration la not usually
apparent unless one watches the
speedometer. This is because the
motor is so smooth in action under
heavy loads as to be almost unnat-

AUTO BUSINESS is
CONSIDERED IN HIGH
STATE OF EFFICIENCY

That the auto industry has forced
higher state of efficiency than known
in any other line of business is the
opinion of George Nj. Dickson, manag-
ing director oil the factory building
National cars at indianapolis.
Dickson says the automobile In.
dustry has TO hew its own way through
a wilderness of obstacles, construct
it's own working methods, create its
own manufacturing and selling plans,
and in fact pioneer in everything. The
industry has had a tightening growth,
its business methods have been fast,
condensed and efficient. It has in fact
largely been a telegraphic business. 1t
is nothing unusual for thousands of
dollars worth OF material to be bought
by telegraph. there being no time to
permit letters to do the job. The re-
suit OF all this rapid growth, Dickson
says. has not been chaos but rather
greater efficiency, elimination OF lost
motion. and the creation OF e new type
OF business men who are trained for
instant decisions and dispatch In all
of their dealings.
The same efficiency and advanced
methods so notable in the big auto
mobile factories has been extended to
the retail automobile dealers through
out the country. They are different
than any other type of retail merchants
as evidenced by their better grade of
stores, and their more alert methods.

high ~grade cars using the leather faced
cone clutch. There are also many
high grade cars using the multiple

which is the better. When designed

efficient The dual ignition system Is
to be preferred. Especially Is this true
in starting the motor during cold
weather.

kindly explain what causes the inside
of tire to break or crack? have had
several tires crack inside and the fabric
become loose. took the matter up
with the tire people, but they refuse
20 make any adjustment. stating that
did not pump enough air into the tires
Is this correct? READER.
Insufficient air pressure viii cause
the fabric to break up quickly. When
the tire is not fully inflated the fab
ric works constantly. AS a result the
| tire becomes overheated and very
quicKly deteriorates. Also, when road
distinctions, etc, are encountered
such as cobblestones, etc, the fabric is
unnecessarily contorted and bruised
After very little treatment of this sort
b1ow-outs must be expected.

erland car and have put in micro leak

is closed. have had the gasoline tank
about one-hfth fun, which has not
been used in the last two months
Thanking YOU for any information you
can give me, am, p. r.
The trouble with carburetor is prob
ably due to leaking at check valve.
Perhaps the float has become saturat ID
with gasoline and does not operate
check valve properly. This can be as
certained by removing plug over
check valve. BY pressing down on
check valve the gasoline will be shut
off. If it rises Immediately after pres
sure Is released the trouble is with the
J float. The float should be REM we'd,
dried out and shellacked. If metal
float is used it will probably need
soldering.

you do not draw gas into the cylinders
at all. q. H.
1t depends greatly upon how loose
are the rings. It would not be possible
to operate a motor properly II one
cylinder lost compression entirely. The
gas that leaks past tho piston rings in
to the crank case would be forced out
through breather pipes or oil filler
Iopening, if remaining in yaporized
form. Some Of this would cond nse
and mix with the oil. In time this
would upset the Iubricating system by
