Crude Oil From SIlale
Will Solve Fuel Probler,

Don't worry, though at the present
rate of consumption the time is not
far distant when the visible supply
of crude oil will be exhausted" saws
f. E. Moskovics, vice-president of the
Nordyke & Marmon Company. "In a
great measure the world must look
to the supply to be extracted from
shale rock, of which there seems to be
an almost ineXhaustible supply.
"Geologists, who have the ground
we'll mapped, place the visible supply
of crude oil at about $4,000, 900 900
barrels. When I say visible, mean
producing wells and fields that are
subject to more development. One
third of this supply is located in the
Mexico field, and the remaining two
thirds in other parts of the world
Right now this country is using an
nually about 1OOOO,00O barrels in ex-
cess of production. One may almost
count on his fingers when the total
supply will be exhausted.
However, we need have no worry
in regard to the fuel situation. The
Bureau of Mines has found subst-
tute for the crude that we now secure
by drilling, and that is crude extracted
from shale that is found in immense
deposits III Colorado and Utah. SO
far, this cannot be extracted and placed
on the market to retail at less than
fifty cents the gallon. The problem
that faces the automobile engineer is
the evolving Of an engine that will
make this new fuel propel a car two
miles instead of one, on the same
amount of fuel. I may say that the
leading lights in the engineering field
are already at work on this problem"

Warning Given ON
Warming Signals

There is distinct tendency among
manufacturers of motor cars to eouip
with smaller horns or warning signals.
according to +. B. Ruoff, manager of
the motor equipment division of the
klaxon Company, of Detroit
This situation has been developing
slowly for the last two years and is
beginning to leopard the safety of
motorists, according to Mr. Ruoff, who
foresees the second advent of the bulb
horn stage unless manufacturers adopt
new attitude in regard to the warn
ing signal.
'The warning signal situation of to-
day is actually going back to the old
Intellectual bulb horn stage as a result
of the car manufacturer insisting on
considering the warning signal as a
non-vital feature of cars equipment" :"
said Mr. Ruoff.
This state of affairs will soon give
dissatisfaction to the car owner and
cannot help but reflect ultimately on
the car manufacturer, for ADEQUATE
warning signal equipment is essential
for the protection of the motor car and
its occupants.
Car manufacturers, by demanding
warning signals at constantly lower
price, have encouraged the building of
instruments that lack quality, but
which can be sold at a price; instru
ments which cannot perform the func-
tions of warning SIGNAL nronerlv
which cannot last the life of the car
and are not in keeping with the stand
ards adopted for other important equip
ment.
ut is the duty of a warning signal
to warn-a the demand for cheap
horns of small type has resulted in
such lessening of their sound volume
mat they. do not give an effectual
warning signal
"A warning signal is eof the utmost
Importance, and not only the motor
cars safety, but the life of the cars

Guaranteed Repair
Jobs a Service Plan

Satisfactory service or repair sta
tlons are not so many in the experience
OF automobilists, and the slogan auto
repairing with a guarantee" is some
thing that gets the attention of most
motor car owners. There is q company
IN town, the Auto Machinists and En-
glneers. Inc, who have a three-storv
pudding at POS East Forty-seventh
street, where work is done on this svs-
tenn. hen car is brought in. a com

MADE. Then the owner is notified what
ought to be done and is told how lone

The company does all work on a time
card system, so that actual hours of
work are charged against the car on

the custom in some shops. Further

New York and
Chicago in
Motor Contest
lhvee-Cornered Match for
Amateur Drivers Will Be
Held Here in June for
the Rickenbacker Trophy

The New York Athletic Club will
meet the Chicago Athletic Association
and the Chicago Automobile Club in q
three-cornered automobile reliability
team match on June IL and 13. 1t will
be two-day contest, with the start
and finish at Travers Island. The
night stop on the road on the night of
the 18th probably will be at Lenox
Mass.
This will be the first inter-city au-
tomobile team match of any conse-
quence that the motoring world ever
has known, and will be remarkable for
the fact that most of the Chicagoans
viii drive over the road to New York
to start in the match. 1t is expected
the Westerners will start at least
twenty cars.
The match will be for the Ricken-
backer trophy, which has been hung
up by Major E. V. Rickenbacker,
Americas ace of aces, and in all prob
ability the donor of the trophy will
act as referee. Fred j. Wagner will
be starter.
The arranging of this match is due
to the energetic action of William &.
Poertner, the newly appointed CHAIR
man of the automobile committee of
the New York Athletic Club, who is
arranging all the details of the match.
He has appointed W. Irving Fickling
CAPTAIN Of the team, and the latter al
ready is recruiting his aggregation of
motoring talent for the dash with the
Westerners He has plenty of 4vail
able timber, for among the well-known
local drivers who are eligible through

The two Chicago teams already have
been organized and the entries include
Z. C. Patterson. S. Z. Hibben, j. w.

Owners must drive their own cars,
and penalties will be imposed for any
repair work done during the contest
and for being late at the noon and
night stops The losing team will
have to banquet the winners at Trav
ers Island.

Demand for Cars
Seems To Be Country Wide

Probably as accurate barometer
of general trade conditions as any is
to be found in the sales charts which
manufacturers keep to show from week
to week the rise and fall of the de-
mano for motor cars. 1t has been
found that such records are in the
highest degree responsive to financial
or business uncertainty, rejecting it
perhaps more promptly than any other
source.
A series of such comparative re-
cords in the office OF Frederick Gown,
president of the Briscoe Motor Cor
poration, at Jackson. Mich, has what
is called the Zine of norma" to rep
resent fair estimate of what the de-
mand should be.
Starting at point considerably be-
low normal on January l, the Zine of
normal" is almost horizontal for sew
eral weeks, evidencing the uncertainty
rs to the future which still existed
in the public mind at that time. About
February l the demand line begins to
curve upward, and toward the first of
March the upward curve becomes
sharp angle. By the end of March de-
mand had risen TO thirty per cent
above normal, and still going up.

1here Is widespread interest in the

The animals are in fresh condition.
Some farmers use their own trucks

many truck owners who do a big busi-

to which this mode of transportation
has been adopted is shown by the
record of receipts at the Indianapolis
stock yards, where in the past eight
months about 100000 hogs and $4,000
cattle arrived in motor trucks. United
