STUDEBAKER SIX is RATED AS
ONE OF THE BEST CARS MADE

only by the refinement of distinctive
lines, which are permanently beauti-
full and stylish.
II would be equally foreign to
Studebaker policy to make radical
changes in its motor design either
Four or Six merely for the sake OF
advertising and sales value. the
present motor has met every emer-
gency of average service and at aver
age driving speeds 1t is better h any
other design yet developed. In tho
Series 10 refinements hav been made
in the fabrication system, rendering
1t absolutely positive in operation.
Refinements have been made In the
motor mounting and in the aiance
and design OF the reciprocating motor
parts-crankshaft, connecting rods
and pistons-still further cutting
down vibration and adding to the
speed and power range of both NO
tors. The evolution of the Studebak-
err motor and full floating rear axle
system has made the S~tudebaker
chassis one of the finest pieces OF au-
tomobile construction on the market
today.

The Studebaker six is one of the
best automobiles ever made, and 1t
should be, for 1t Is the masterpiece
of one OF the worlds largest makers
and no company in the world in
manufacturing OF engineering expert
ence, resources or organization. Elk
cels ~Studebaker; and the Studehaker
Six is the best work of Studebaker.
1t is a car of masterful power. no
car in the world under $4,000 exceeds
it in this respect-and, in ratio to
weight no a in the world at any
price exceeds a Studebaker Six in
power. yet it is remarkably econom-
ical In gasoline. tires. upkeep N
maintenance expense, because of Its
~unexcelled design. 1t Is as easy rid
ing and as easy driving as cars of
much greater weight and longer
wheelbase, and this because of its
extra long springs, scientifically de-
signed seats and cushions, and perfect
lines. Like the highest priced max
ers, Studebaker has not adopted
temporary fads and fancies in body
design as an advertising or selling
stimulus. 1t changes body design

NEW CADILLAC PHAETON

Well-D Designed Model Inclines

Prominent among the cars which
attracted unusual attention at the
New York show was the new Cadillac

along the popular sport" lines. but
rejecting the conservatism of the
makers in the absence of any tend
ency to be freakish. The sides, some
what lower than the conventional,
the lower seats and the inclined wind
shield accentuate the speedy lines OF
the cars design.
C~ontrasted with the usual car of
the sport type, the Cadillac Phae-
ton has every indication of being a
design not only for seed but one af-
fOrding the comfortable riding quail
tiles which adapt it to the require
ments of the small family.

the traffic was even greater than dur

be in future a will depend upon
provisions made in the way of good
roads.
1t is estimated that between 20 and
80 automobiles daily stopped in Pen

leading the way to greater values and compelling other
manufacturers to increase values and reduce prices.
Studebaker has $13, 000,0 900 invested in the most eff
cient and modern plants in which it manufacturers all of
It's engines, aXles, transmissions, differentials, bodies and
tops. Middlemens profits (paTts makers) included in
the price of assembled cars are almost entirely eliminated
in Studebaker selling prices. 1t is necessary to pay from
500 to 1907 more than Studebaker prices for cars of cor
responding value.

MAINTENANCE COST IS
OF CHIEF

Last year, at the meeting OF the
Society of Automobile Engineers of
Detroit directly following the two ma
tional automobile shows. two pecmi-
nent authorities read papers outlin-
ing their observations on the tread OF
motor car design for 1915.
One OF the points brought u was
this: THE greatest point in which
the present-day automobile fails In its
purpose Is that OF maintenance cost.
II is cheap enough to buy but IL Is
woefully costly to maintain.
I'm reducing maintenance cost,
there are two chief things for which
to work: one, the reduction OF weight;
and the other. the reduction OF fric-
ton loss in transmission"

CADILLAC TO BUILD
100000 FACTORY
safe Purchased FOR New Plant which
WIN Shelter $4,000 Workmen.

Announcement has just been made
by the cadillac Motor Car company
that 1t has acquired in Detroit nearly
fifty acres of land Wherein it will
build a large plant to house all of
its manufacturing activities. While
the present Cadillac factory is rscog-
nized throughout the automobile in
dustry as being the finest equipped
motor "a plants the eompany's bus
mess has outgrown present facilities.
1t is also desired to concentrate all
operations of production in one plant
The site of the proposed new plant,
on which it is expected building OPP

regarded as one of the most advan-
~tageously situated in Detroit. its
western boundary is the junction of
the Michigan Central railroads main
line with the Lake Shore division of
the New York Central.
Good Railroad Facilities.
The former is the southern bound
airy of the property. with the latter as
the northern boundary. with the
tracks of the Grand Trunk a few feet
beyond. The Wabash and the Pere
Marquette are only a short distance
TO the west which assures close prox-
unity to the PENNSYLVANIA also when
hat road enters Detroit over tina
Pere Marquette lines. In the matter
of shipping facilities, the site is said
to be without equal in Detroit
The land is said to have cost an
proximately sT50.o0O. The plant. not
including equipment, will, It is esti-
mated. represent an investment in
the neighborhood of $4,000. 600. It
will probably give employment to To-
600 to 49, 00 persons.
To CentraIizs Operations.
The main advantage to the Cadfi-
lac Motor Car company will be the
acquisition of facilities adequate to
handle its growing business and the
grouping of its various departments
in n great plant. At present its
main plant is at some distance from
its boundaries, its sheet metal divi-
s1ons and its body building plant.

nearly all parts Of its cars. and builds
finishes and trims the bodies, the
Capitalization of its operations will
tend still further to increase the eff
cheney.

To have achieved a position among
the leaders OF the automobile indus

Dodge Brothers have always been
reticent in discussing production. but
I is known that when they celebrated
their second anniversary as car man

San Francisco, March 6-As a re- suit of Tong wars which have been wsged in this city and other cities along the Pacific Coast for the pas several weeks, five Chinese were killed outright, two fatally wounded and three others serious ly wounded in outbreaks which oc- cured simultaneously in San Fran cisco.

 Prior to this fresh outbreak, sev- elal killings had occurred as the result of clashes between Chinese gunmens Of the Hop Sing tong and the Hip Sing tong, and it was be- Iieved that settlement through the courts would be had that would prevent any further shooting, but as Harry Wong, a member of the Hop Sing tong had been killed in front of the Milwaukee hotel in Seattle, it was decreed that there should tc just as many Hip Sing tongmen killed to avenge the death of a Hop Sing tongman, and this has been accomplished. Now the Hip Sing tong will go after their enemies, and it is feared that a great number of killings will fol- low.
