SHORTAGE OF
 BUCKS EXPECTED Local Dealer Receives Less Than Half of 1919
 Allotment.

Don Drennen, president of the Birming- ham Motor company. stated~ that their allotment for Buick cars in the month Of January was 90 cars, and received only nine, and the announcement came from the factory yesterday that out of 70 cars in the February allotment there will not be possibly more than six cars shipped. This is due to the shortage of materials and the manner in which the Buick factory is conducted They must have 10J per cent of all the materials before cars are shipped and there is such big demand for materials today that orders cannot be filed
 The Buick factory expected to be build ing about 1000 cars a day by April 15 but with the present outlook it seems that their production win be held down. There is wild rush for Buick cars all over the country and this anticipated shortage of deliveries will make these popular cars impossible to get. says MT Drennen.
 There will be only few cars received in Birmingham this month and Mir. Dren- nen says that he could fill orders now for over 15 cars should they be received

Choose Your HudSOnNOW
Normal Production Of the Super Six Can
 Not Be Restored Before Next June

There are so few Hudsons of any model to be had just now and it will be so long before full factory production is attained that buyers will do we'll to se- lect their car without delay.
 Super-Six production was to have ceased January 1st
 In anticipation of the months that new cars would not be available, we took all we could secure. But the de- mand for the Super-Six made it impos- slble for us to accumulate stocks. De- liveries of Hudsons every month since the Super-Six was introduced have practically equaled the output. More than 100000 Hudsons are already in service.
 Thus is again shown the popularity of the Super-Six. Its. white triangle has become the symbol of super-quality and super-performance throughout the world.
 Hudson production will be resumed as rapidly as possible. But it will be months before the factory can meet the usual demand. An interruption of at least three months in the output of open models is inevitable.

They Are Pattern Cars

Every Hudson model has been ad- mired, envied and copied by other mak- CTS. But under the Hudson plan there is constant development and so any Super-Six you get today is months ahead of similar types of other makes.
 In view of the situation, don't you think it best to see us about your Hud- son? There is no certainty as to what you can get next spring.
 Need you be reminded of Super-Six value? It is the recognized standard of motordom. For three years it's leader ship has been undisputed. Today i. carries the added indorsement of thou sands who have learned to know its ab- solute reliability through all the months when automobile service attention was so hard to obtain.

Everyone knows the completeness of the Hudson Super-Six line. There were nine different types. Recently we ad- ded the Coupe, beautiful four ger model, and a new series of the Tour ing Limousine.

A PEACE TIME PROBLEM

Peace problems are no less pressing
than those of war. Every communi-
ty has them. They are not less i'm
portant or urgent than war tasks be-
cause they are problems of peace.
San Juan has her peculiar problems
just as New York or New Orleans or
Oshkosh.
One of them is transportation.
Proper preparedness, would have
prevented the necessity of facing this
problem just as preparedness would
have made Allied Victory come sooner.
Little attention has been paid to
the city's transportation needs since
1912. Then the Legislature and the
City jointly studied the City's trans
portation problem and decided that
double-tracking was necessary.
The solution then considered I'M
perative has not yet been brought
about because of terms which made
double tracking impossible.
Since that time San Juan has gain

Condition of the distribution lines sup.
plying electric lighting to San Juan

within the urban zone at these
voltages, has been accepted every
where and in Porto Rico we have
the Irrigation Service Plant at Ca
ribe, which has 2,200 and 1000
volt lines in Guayama, Arroyo,
Salinas and Santa Isabel; the Mu-
nicipality of Arecibo which dis
tributes at 2,200 volts and the
plants at Mayagiiez, Ponce and
San German, which use this same
voltage. The distribution system
at these voltages has been uni
versally approved owing to it's
flexibility and economy of copper
in the lines. This tension is aga
in reduced by transformers to
10 and 220 volts to be used by
consumers for lighting, heating
anu pONCI.
The National Electric Code con-
tains the rulings adopted in the
United States for all classes of
installations and following is a
list of those pertaining to exterior
lines and the installation of San
Juan is discussed in respect to
these rules:
"12-a-WIRE. The line wires
should have an approved cover,

The lines of San Juan are of

In. accordance with your ms

investigation of the distribution

The electric current used in San

volts, to the substation at the Con
dado, where it is transformed to
2.200 voltiOn, which is the high
