Obtain The Services
OF Harry FosdicR

Having adopted a plan OF intensi-
fled selling cooperation for the bene-
fit of its dealer organization, the Nor
dyke d Marmon company announces
that It has obtained the services of
Harry Fosdick Of Boston, who will
act as 2 special representative OF the
sales department for this and other
field work Of the organization. Mr..
FOsdick's wide knowledge OF dealers
and sales conditions makes his ap-
pOIutment q logical one, for he knows
the dealer problem from personal eE-
perience and has long been identified
with the wholesale as well as retail
selling OF American and foreign cars
Of note. Known everywhere as a
cheerful and loyal organization man,
he is probably the originator of the
idea that every factory sales repre-
sentative should also consider him
self special ambassador of the deal
ers and should never neglect to rep
resent their cause 10 the factory.

BOOTH TELLS OF
TEST ON U. S. TIRES

There are many different tires on
the market said D. c.. Booth one day
this week. -l-C we feel sure that
there are 20 tires that are so con-
tiuuousl- making the records that are
being made by United states tires.
Only the other day one of these late
performances of the United States
Royal Cord tire came TO my atten-
ton This performance was in Cali
fornia, and has attracted wide atteu-
ton.
The Kent brothers. who operate
the motor stage between san Pedro
and Eel1ud0. have their car equipped
with United States Royal CorG tires.
When one OF these tires had run
20.4I1 miles and was brought in to be
reuread the local press set Up and
took notice and an intense interest in
this wonder fire. and or November

just the same as the automobile
figures include the weight o. the en-
tire car.
1T is evident that in both cases
the weight per passenger requires
power in proportion TO move fl, and
power means fuel In these days OF
conservation, when the saving OF fuel
IS such an important item. weight re-
duction as worked out in the auto
mobile. is apparently a key to the
solution that our railroads viii some
time have to consider.
THAT the average automobile de-
sign also has room for development
along this same line. is shown in the
latest achievement Of the Franklin
Automobile company in building 4
fun size five passenger car Weighing
22S0 pounds. much under the average
five passenger car weight When
loaded TO q passenger capacity OF 1000
pounds, this particular car carries
not over 65f pounds per passenger
The wei known company records
Of the Franklin serve to show how
weight influences gasoline and tire
consumption"

mans around the city of Lens is
something more than a mere British
attempt 10 push Hindenburg's famous

thing more than an effort to force
the enemy off French soil. If Gen.
Haig's brave Britons and Canadians
succeed in capturing Lens, they will
have achieved a victory far mora i'm
portant than the sinking o. 100 Ger
man submarines.
What France and Italy greatly
need, in addition to food, munitions
and clothing, is coal. England has
been trying to supply the coal her
allies so urgently require and Ger
many with her submarines has en-
dangered and cut short the supply.
Lens is the key to this situation
