Mr.. Seiberling, upon arriving at Salt

he laughingly termed it. In comment
ing upon the proposed project of build
ing a connecting link of the Lincoln
highway across this desert strip, he
said, Il believe that it is feasible to
construct a first elias shighway across
this region within reasonable figures.
There is an abundant supply of gravel
of suitable quality, near Black Point,
and | am confident that the whole pro-
ject can be worked out without trou-
BILE.
Eastern good roads enthusiasts have
already pledged s125,000 for this work,
and it only remains for us to secure a
contractor to go ahead with the con-
structiOn. With this desert link COM
pleted, travel on the western leg of the
Lincoln highway will increase enor-

NEW PRODUCT
Of FORD CO.
IS HERE NOW

For the next few days Ed Rudolph,
the local Ford agent will have on eX-
hibition the latest product of Henry
Ford, the coupelet, a car which has
been looked forward to with interest
by the careful buyer who wants. some
thing better than the well known tour
ing and runabout.
Mr.. Rudolph states that this is the
car best adapted for AriZona's climate,
and is an ideal car for a woman. For
winter it is warm and coy for town
use-for business, calling, shopping.
For summer with its heat proof top
and ample ventilation. it is decidedly
cooler than an open car, free from dust,
clean, sociable, exclusive. 1t has COM
pletely removable windows and panels.
and the quality goes clean through.
This car and the sedan are Henry
Ford's only deviation from the princi-
pal laid down at the time his first car
was built-"a car for the masses.,' and
its addition of about 5000 to the well
known cost of the touring and run
about gives product that is compar-
able in value with cars in the $1,000
class

eytric@te 2 big touring car which had
settled into a treacherous subsurface
hole President F. A. Soldering, of the
Goodyear Tire & Rubber company, and
director of the Lincoln highway, re-
ports one of the most thrilling motor
experiences of lifetime according to
information received by D. w. San
ford local Goodyear branch manager.
Director Soldering, in company with
three other Lincoln highway officials,
set out on tour of inspection of a
seventeen mile strip of proposed high

sary equipment for roughing it in an
uninhabited region.
Camp for the night was pitched on
the rim of the desert and it was well
/ that sleeping bags and blankets had
been provided, for the temperature
| dropped 40 degrees by morning. By
noon. however. it had mounted up to
100. and the sun blazed down in a
binding glare
A preliminary inspection had been
made by two of the other members of
the party, with the report that the
route was passable All went well at
first but before long the big camp car.

touring car. broke through the hard
crust and sank in the soft material be-
low. On account of the danger of sink
ing through the sandy surface if an
attempt were made to turn around, the
touring car was forced to back in its
tracks for the two miles.
The camp car was soon towed out of
difficulty. but mired again when half
way across the desert, and in the effort
to extricate it, the touring car broke
through also. So the camp car was
abandoned and the attention of the
party given to retaining the other
car. In the meantime one of the men
started out on a twelve mile hike to
the nearest ranch for help, while the
others tugged steadily at the marooned
car.
After siX-hOur struggle, which net

hands and redeemed faces, the big
Packard was finally coaxed out onto

present time have d far more serious
and far reaching effect than simply
advance of price. These conditions
have already been decreasing the out
put of several of the largest and best
known factories while some manufac-
turers are unable to construct future
deliveries at any price.
During my recent trip to the WHY'S
Overland factory the result of these
conditions We're brought so forcibly to
my attention, that, knowing rs do the
demand for Overland cars in Arizona,
and fully approaching the scarcity of
automobiles which is bound TO come

Overland cars from now until late in
the spring.
Conditions in the Salt River valley
have, as we all know, been better dur
ing the past year than for some time
past, where local conditions are good,
automobile sales are good, for this rea-
son the Overland Arizona company has
already placed a large number of cars
over their this years allotment; and
were it not for conditions as above
mentioned new Overlands would be

new OYerlands on hand and While We

ON AUTO ROW

quarters of the new agency Will be To-
Gated in the Bennett & Wells garage,
on the corner of Second avenue and
Madison street.
benjamin Briscoe relates as follows
the story of designing his ideal car:
1T is safe to say that down in their
hearts everybody has desire to own
a real motor car-fully equipped and
with every possible built-in refine
ment They want beauty of line, gem
uine efficiency and sturdy, lasting
qualities. They want n car that can be
run economically, and that can be kept
out of the repair shop. They want this
car to carry pride of ownership, hap
piness of possession The chief rea-
son that people of moderate means
don't own this kind of a car is because
hey haven't been able to buy one at Il
price the average person can pay.
For a number of years it has been
my desire to give the men and women,
the families of the United States, just
such a car as this. I wanted to build
that car so we'll to make it so beau
tiful, so strong, yet light, so powerful
and so economical of upfeep that
every obstacle in the way Of the motor
ear enjoyment of the great army OF
American people would be overcome.
THE accomplishment of this pur-
pose presented a tremendous problem
10 me- but that problem has been
solved. When | started | would not
have believed that the car of my
dreams would be built around half
million dollar motor. To carry out my
plan | must live and work in an at
mosphere of leisurely thoroughness.
There was only one place that would
suit my requirements. That place was
Paris. So. in the spring of 1912, ac
companied by a number of my former
associates. ! sailed for the French
capital and after much research was

themselves with the automobiles and

entire nation, when road conditions are

STUDENT KILLED

Newport News, Va.-victor Carl.
strom, aviator instructor at the At.
lantic coast aeronautical station
here, and Carey B. Epes, of New
port News, an army student aviator
were almost instantly killed Thurs
day when their machine collapsed
at an altitude of about $500 feet.
The machine was smashed and
the bodies of the aviators mangled
almost beyond recognition. Hun
dreds of persons in various sections
of the city saw the accident and
children at one of the public schools,
watching the filters during their
noon recess, we're anic-stricken.
Carlstrom was giving Epes his
first lesson. They rapidly rose
about $500 feet and were flying
smoothly, when the machine sudden
denly crumpled up and plunged
downward. AS it fell observers saw
the right wing sailing after it. 1t
had given way and caused the re-
mainder of the plane to collapse.
Carlstrom reached the zenith of
his fame when he flew from Chicago
to New York several months ago.
Before that he had flown from New
port News to New York without
stop, setting a record for cross
country flying. Carlstrom also held
the American record for altitude
with pilot and one passenger, hav-
ing assembled to a height of 5000
'eet here a year ago.
Several weeks ago Carlstrom re-
,eived an appointment as First Lieu
enant in the army aviation reserve
'orps. He was considered one of
he best instructors and had a large
lass of army students at the local
chool.
Epes resigned his position as tel
er in a local bank last Saturday,
nd had arranged to take the avia-
ion course as a civilian until his ap-
lication had been acten upon by
he army authorities.
