Cady Says Owner Need MOI

The owner of a PicrceArrow pas

is amply demonstrated by the eXhibi-

susceptible of decided changes which

Motor Car Prices
Hardly Tend TO
Fall, Says Toner
Limited Production Will
Make for Shortage in 1919
He Estimates There
Will Be 100000 Shy
By T. J. Toner
ice-President Maxwell Motor Co.

NiCe-PreSldent Maxwell MOtOr ".
Regardless of what other manufact-
urers may be forced to do and no mat
ter what the trend Of the automobile
world this coming spring, the prices
on Maxwell and Chalmers cars will not
be reduced one penny before June l,
1919-if, indeed, then.
Since the day the armistice was
signed there has been the wall of tum
bling prices. For some weeks we have
heard Of prospective purchasers who,
because of their reliance on such gos-
sip, have put off buying.
The Chicago automobile show con-
frmed the soundness Of the doctrine
have consistently adhered to. The tone
and demeanor of the Coliseum crowds
convinced me that the people in the
great majority of cases do not intend
sitting quietly by awaiting that myth
cal avalanche of prices. Interest at
both our Maxwell and Chalmers exhib-
it's here in New York surpassed any
thing of the last four years, Sand we
have opened more negotiations than
dication, | am informed, has been re-
ported by all exhibitors, from the
cheapest to the most luxurious cars.
1t takes little reflection to under
stand why there can be no thought of
universal cut in prices for some
time to come. The first reason is be-
cause it is estimated there will be a
shortage Of 100000 cars in the 1919
output. AS quantity production Is the
only thing in the world that can make
any merchandise sell for less, it is
/ easy to sec why automobile prices Tor
the immediate future must as~y up.
he other reason embraces many OBJ
vious considerations. Take the matter
Of living expense. 1t is true that with
the coming Of peace foodstuffs are
more easily acquired; but for the i'm
mediate future, until the markets and
transportation arc rcsdjusted there
can be no relief from the conditions
that existed in the war period.
Hostiljtics have been at an end for
nearly two months, and yet there re-
mains still in Europe an American

Albert Champion
Pays Tribute to
Vincent of Packard
Says Engineer Is Responsible
for Americas Progress in
Details of Manufacture of
Aircraft Long Before War

Nothing but the greatest praise
should be accorded to Jesse g. Vim
cent for his epochal contribution to the
American triumph OIL overseas battle
fields" is the tribute paid by Albert
Champion, creator of the AC spark plug,
10 the chief engineer OF the Packard
Motor Car Company, who on Americas
entrance into the world war was bre
vcted major and intrusted with the
design ard development of an aviation
engine with parts SO standardized that
they could be readily duplicated and
manufactured in unprecedented guam
titles for the pressing emergency.
But for Jesse G. Vincent and his
foresight and skill America to-day
might be chactically employed in the
tedious development of an airplane
motor" said Champion st the Auto
lnible Show yesterday. because Vim
cent was ready to meet the wartime
needs of the government we have the
Liberty motor and can boast with both
spridc and justice CT It's record accom-
piishments.
f"Vincent was, indeed, The man of the
hour SO far as our aviation programme
was concerned When war was de-
clared on Germany he already had per-
fected TIE twelvec cylinder motor, and in
TWO yeas Of repeated tests had adapted
this motor to aviation. He had inter
ested tie gnanufacturers Of motor parts
in The airniane engine. AS result, he
knew positively how the several COM
ponent parts would function.
The question of spark plugs, for
example, rave Vincent no cause for
worry, despite the fact that the author
ties at Washington and the Allied
aviation experts gave many hours Of
troubled thought to ignition, knowing
that fron, seventy to ninety plugs Of
foreign manufacture we're required to
run an airplane motor for fifty hours.
Vincent, however, knew that he
could get in this country spark plug
that would stand I'D in the high speed,
high-compressio Liberty motor. He
had given us an opportunity to test
&C spark plugs in the aviation engines
that he developed at the Packard fac
cory in 1916 and 1917. AS a result of
these experimental tests, we were able
to develop plug that would run for
nifty hours on the dynamometer with
out change
But for Vincent, our aviation plug,
which was adopted as standard eouin-
ment on all Liberty and Hispano-S Suiza
@'rplane motors, would not have been
developed and perfected, since there
was no need in this country for such
plug prior to the declaration Of war
in the spring Of 1917.
ut was Vincent only who anticipated
the need for an airplane motor. 1t
was Vincent that encouraged ON. com
pany and other parts makers to take
up experimental aviation work. AS
consequence, a precious year, at least.
was saved that might have beer spent
at a cost of thousands of lives in the
Development of satisfactory aviation
engine and its satisfactory equipment.v
