90 REPUBLIC TRUCKS
IS DAILY OUTPUT
Vice President Markle Sees No
Reason for Pessimism. !

In these days of foolish down-in- the
mouth pessimism in some quarters,
the story of Republic Truck develop
ment comes as a refreshing piece of
news. Not only do their records
show business as usual" but sales
and deliveries twice as good as usual
During the nine months ending
April !, 1918, there were 11,4OO Re
public Trucks built and delivered, as
opposed to $500 trucks during the
same period, ending April !, 1917. The
cash receipts for the nine months
ending April 1, 1918. were $l2,OOe, coo as
opposed to about s6,O0O.OOO in. the same
period of the preceding year.
One of the n. 1st encouraging fea-
lures of this Unprecedented increase
is the fact that this is regular busi-
ness and does not include so-termed
war orders. That these figures would
have been far surpassed except for
the known shortage of raw material
and shipping facilities, not to mem
tion bad roads and. consequent in
ability TO drive away, is a foregone
conclusion.
Vice President lafayette Markle. of
the Republic Truck Company, states
their schedule of production at pres
ent is sixty trucks per day, OF an
approximate output of 1900 trucks pei
month. This schedule. he has reason
to believe, win be materially boosted
n q few months.

MOTOR TRUCK BITS.

Philadelphia to Oxford and return, a
distance of loo miles made daily.
In interCity motor-truck transporta-
ton the successful operation of any
line depends largely Jpn securing a
return load. Quite a number of pri-
vately owned lines would be in
augurated Immediately were It not for
the difficulty in securing return loads
regularly. The Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Company. of Akron, Ohio,
which operates a motortruck line
from that city to Boston. Mass, is not
confronted by this problem. as the
company has a large cotton fabric
mill at Goodyear. Conn. from which
the trucks bring back cargoes of cot
ton fabric for use in manufacturing
tires and other rubber products.
"History's Lesson TO the Motor
truck" is the subject of new book
let by P. w. Litchfield of Akron,
Ohio. This booklet is an important
addition to motortruck trade litera-
ture.
The A. W. Shaw Company. Of Chi
cago. publishers of System Magazine,
will soon issue a book on THE Motor
truck as an Aid to Business Profits" -
The book will contain 500 pages. fully
illustrated and will treat exhaustively
of the uses to which the commercial
vehicle can be put today, the means
of getting the most from it and the
agencies which increase its efficiency!
The author is S. V. Norton.

PEERLESS CHASSIS
IMPROVED FURTHER
Joe Trew Tells How This Car Has
Been Developed.

Listen to Joe Trew. of the Trew
Mortor Company. distributors of the
Peerless motor cars ''crack' about
these cars:
Although the late Peerless models
are practically the same in all es-
sential features that have char
acterized their general makeup and
are entering their third season, there
have been many improvements on the
chassis which makes it more con-
venient and efficient.
When this twO-power range eight
was first shown at the New York
show at the beginning of the 1916
season, the public was so strongly
impressed with its possibilities that
during the following seasons there
has been no necessity for making any
marked changes in either chassis or
design. The engineering department
has been at work during the sue
Ceeding seasons adding every inn
provement that would tend to in
crease comfort and economy Of opera
ton.
To provide for the better carbure-
tion of low grade fuel now in use
the gas mixture is heated by pass
ing it through the exhaust mani
fold. This heating process quick
ly vaporizes the gasoline as it pass
es into the intake manifold and re-
suits in getting the full force of
the explosive mixture even with
the lower grade gasoline.
AoOking at the purely technical
nges which have been made in
sAe last season, the most note
worthy is the elimination of the
rocker arms in the valve operation
and the substitution of straight line
valves and push rods. This mini
mizes wear. gives greater clearance
and makes the action practically
noiseless. Nlother Improvement has
been the tlanGe in the camshaft
and cam d@ign. This change pro-
duCes a sloH and constant speed lift
at the time of contact. This makes
the valve adjustment an easier sat
ter 1t also adds greatly to the
power.

AUTOS Value LIES
IN SERVICE GIVEN
Carmody Says Cars Give More for
! Money Than Ever.

F. S. Carmody. president of Hen
derson' Motor Company, distributors
for the Saxon car, believes that the
motor car of today offers a bigger
value to the purchaser than ever be-
fore in its history.
For motor car values are not
measured in terms of the selling
price, but in terms of the service
given" says Mr.. CarmOdy. while
the retail price of automobiles gen.
orally is higher than it was two years
ago, there is no question but that the
value to the purchaser is greater.
When it is considered what the motor
car will do today in the business and
private life of any citizen a part of
its new value becomes apparent at
once.
''As business has sped up more and
more. the motor car has become more
valuable to every business man, those
who heretofore have felt that their
purse would not afford a motor car
now see where they can save money
by using one. Price does not figure
into such a scheme particularly.
Then there is another direct value
of the motor car of 1ylS-especiaIly of
one such as the Saxon, which has a
firmly established reputation for
economy in operation and upkeep.
The increased cost of fuel and other
sundries is more than Offset by the
reduction in those items which a tru-
ly economy car like the Saxon has
brought to its owners. The higher
initial cost is more than worth while
IN the long run when operating econ
omy and unfailing service can be pur-
chased
This may sound like theory, but it
resolves itself into hard facts with a
little figuring. Motorists today all are
considering not so much the first cost
as the running expenses-the driblets
that go out daily for fuel, oil and
tires. They are selecting the car
which shows the smallest expendi-
lures Of this kind and forgetting the
cost at the start. And these motor
lists are selecting Saxon in a large
number of instances

RETURN-LOAD BUREAU
SYSTEM NOW Set UP
Connecticut Aims at Reducing
Empty Truck Journeys.

A system of return-Ioad bureaus
has been established in all the
larger cities in Connecticut by the
State Council of Defense and is in
successful operation. The Motor
Truck Club of New Jersey has es-
tablished such a bureau in Newark
and one has been started in New
Brunswick. N J.
The highways transport commit
tee of the Council of National De-
fense. Munsey- Building, Washing
ton. which inaugurated the move
ment TO relieve freight congestion,
is interested in getting similar bu-
reaus established in cities all along
the seaboard from Boston to Wash
ington. and is sending men to pre-
sent details regarding the plan to
chambers of commerce and other in
terested organizations in the diff
ferent cities.
All that is required is to put one
employe in charge of a cal rd index
system and telephone service, to
list truck operators who give no.

and shippers who advise that they
have loads to be delivered in Vari-
Gus cities. The Return Loads Bu
