Overland FIyWheeIS Are
Balanced by Simple Device

An operation which is simplicity it
self, yet which is very important in
the building OF an automobile motor,
is the balancing of fywheels, clutch
cones and other parts of motor car
requiring an even distribution Of
weight.
One of the very interesting fea-
lures of automobile construction at
the WHY'S Overland factories is this
operation. The fywheel is mounted
on a shaft and is suspended on pair
of rollers. Naturally the heavier por-
ton of it swings Immediately to the
bottom. This point is accurately
acted by the workmen.
Weights are then mounted on the
gears to determine how much over
weight is the marked point After
sufficient weight has been added to
he lighter side to properly balance
he wheel a drill, exactly the size
VI the weights, takes out the required
mount to properly balance the fly
wheel. Thus, if two weights have
oeen used to equalize the weight of
the wheel, two holes are drilled on
the heavier side; if three weights,
hree holes, and so on.
Clutch cones, however, are balanced
by plugging the lighter side with lead
n a manner similar to the balancing
II fywheels.

Work Being Rushed on New
Body Plant for Allen Car

The confidence with which many
of the large automobile manufactur-
ers look to continued good business,
despite the f,ct that this country is
now at war, is well evidenced by the
announcement of the WON Motor
company that work has been started
on the Dale Body ,company's new
plant, the first building to be erected
in "Allendale addition" the new au-
tomobile community founded by the
Aliens at Fostoria, o.
The Dale Body company will de-
vote itself exclusively to the produc-
ton of high srade bodies for Allen
cars. The main building will be 500
feet long and will afford upwards
of 10000 square feet of floor space.
The walls will be mainly of glass,
which will cause the interior to be
flooded with light. Protection from
fire will be insured by use of the
sprinkler system. Throughout the
latest body machinery will be in
stalled, and when running at capa-
city the plant will deliver .vO bodies

Work on the Aliens new. body
plant is being rushed and it is ex-

points out.
With the country in a state OF

nihcant," says Mr., Williams. THE
highest state OF war preparedness
cannot be achieved until our highways
are in a fit state for motor vehicle
transportation of great quantities Of
munitions and materials ''hich must
often be transported long distances,
II is certain that the railroads alone
cannot take care of the situation.

MOTOR OF FUTURE
MUST Be LIGHTER
War Will Necessitate Greater
Economy of Both Gasoline
and Tires.
BRITISH LEARN A LESSON

just what influence war conditions
will have on the makeup of Amer
lean motor cars is, Of course, not very
plainly defined at this early date. but
that certain tendencies are likely to
de, cop is strongly apparent in auto
mobile circles.
Automobile men who are familiar
with the probable demand upon our
supply of gasoline and rubber during
war time predict that the type of au-
tomobile that does its share in con-
serving these resources will demand
great deal of attention.
That there is the opportunity for
the checking OF waste in these two
vital essentials of automobile opera
ton is borne out by the statement Of
the Franklin Automobile company to
the effect that if all automobiles in
use were as economical of gasoline as
Franklin cars America would save
400,000,000 gallons of gasoline, and if
all cars were as economical of tires
as the Franklin the country's tire bill
would be cut $lo2,000000.
What England has already expe-
rienced, through the lessons of the
war, is indicated in an address to the
Coventry Engineering society a short
time ago by Major Green, a promi-
nent British army officer, in which he
asserts: "We are convinced that the
car of the future must be great deal
lighter than the car of the present
time. The weights have been great
ly piling up and in many respects
crude systems of construction have
been perpetrated. Heavy water
jackets have been typical of the kind
of construction that has become too
prevalent in the motor car and which
appears likely to be rudely upset by
the experience gained by motor car
manufacturers in the making of aero
plane engines"
