when turning, follow the driving force
exerted through the spindles. This is
always straight ahead.
The boys who drove Cadillacs in
France found that this steadiness of
steering helped wonderfully to relieve
fatigue and thus made possible greater
comfort and faster travel than could
otherwise have been maintained.
No doubt Cadillac ease of control
has been sold to lot of motoring en-
thusiasts. 1t is interesting to know
there is a unique and carefully thought
out reason for 1t. The right amount
OF caster principle in steering Is one
of the things that makes Cadillac diff
ferent from a good many other auto
mobiles.

Vast Expenditure Charged
Against Mud Is Because the

ways.

Interesting statistics were cited 70.
Gently in the United States senate
which showed that this nation pays
an annual mud tax of $700,000.000.
This vast expenditure charged against
mud is because the country lacks
nation wide system of well built pub
lie roads and highways.
In the United States an average Of
23 cents a mile is paid for the privi-
lege of hauling over the roads, while
in France the average is but cents a
mile. The difference in cost is due
to the difference in the roads. In Eng
land this same cost is about IL cents
mile, per ton. In this country last
year farmers were obliged to move
more than 4,000,OOO,oOO pounds of food
over the highways, and were handi-
capped by isolation from markets due
to shipping points being inaccessible.

Famous French Speed Creation

May 81 in Automobile Clas-
sic-Jules Goux to Drive.

Jules Goux, the latest entry for the
SoO,ooo Liberty sweepstakes of SOC
miles on the indianapolis speedway
May 81, will drive a Peugeot, famous
In two continents. The car that GouS
VIII face the starter with is the same
that Georges Boillot drove in the last
French grand prix in 1914 and with
which he gave the German Lauten-
schlager the battle of his life on the
tortuous course near Amiens, France
In France, Boillot who fell in the Sec
ond year of the war, was an idol as an
aviator, as well as having been un-
usually successful with the Peugeot.
Goux was a bosom friend of the late
Johnny Aitken and when the two Peu-
geot cars were purchased by Messrs.
Fisher, Allison and Newly, owners of
the speedway, in 1915, GouX wrote
from the trenches to Aitken and adj

Jules, who was the first foreign driv-

trophies to France. One of the Incl
dents of Goux's career was that while
he won the 1913 race he broke one of
the first rules of the A. A. A. to do it.
Goux, who has withstood many a CRU

tire after 400 miles over the brick
track, and when he pulled up to the
pits for tire change he called for
champagne. He drank the wine that
all Frenchmen love and with its brac-

race. The A. A. A. rules prohibit in

There is no country of consequence
in the world that has not bought
American automobiles. They are

Tasmania near the Antarctic circle
Eighty different countries are shown
on the list of the bureau of foreign

mobiles and motor trucks were de-
clared for export from the United
States during the last year. They in

as the Barbados islands, Trinidad and

small islands designated as "Other
