CADILLAC COMPANY
VALUABLE DURING WAR
Met Liberty Motor Problem
With Skill and Speed; Invent
ed New instruments and In
creased Production.

Manager G.. o. Goodwin of the Shar.
man Auto company, distributors of
Cadillacs and Oaklands. has just re-
ceived a communication from the Cad
lilac company which recounts the man
ner in which the Cadillac company met
the Liberty motor problem. 1t reads
as follows:
THE Cadillac company not only
manufactured large number of COM
plete Liberty motors. but the services
of the company proved invaluable in
the manufacture of connecting rods.
The Liberty motor connecting rod and
the Cadillac connecting rod are prac-
tically the same except as to size. A
large share of this work was assigned
to Cadillac because of it's dexterity in
handling the tough metal that was re-
CURED. A new plant, with an area of
$4,000 square feet was equipped and
utilized for Liberty motor production.
THE adaptation of the club method
so that it could be practically used for
Celebrating or measuring the power of
Liberty motors, was product of Cad
lilac genius. and 1t proved to be indis-
pensable In accurately determining
horsepower. 1t takes precedence over
the old torque stand and the electric

dynamometer. which were the only
previous methods, the latter being very
expensive to use.
SOLVED BY KAUFMAN.
'The problem of keeping the cylin-,
ders cool when welding on the Shout
ders was uniquely solved by l.. w.
Kaufman, of the Cadillac company, and
was extremely valuable in speeding up
the Liberty engine production at the
time when there was crying need for
them.
EARLY in January, 1918, Howard E.
Coffin. then head of the aircraft board.
appointed a committee consisting of
three eminent engineers to act in an
advisory capacity in regard to the inn
provements to be made in future series
of motor production, instructing them
to make tests for the Liberty engine
and recommendations for changes
which they considered necessary to
overcome existing defects. d. Mccall
White, vice president of the Cadillac
Motor Car company, was named by Mr..
Coffin to serve on this committee"
The Sharman company is receiving
regular shipments of Cadillacs in all
models, and can make immediate de-
liveries.

CHALMERS WORK FINE
Makes Round Trip Between

Averages Twenty Miles to

w.
The record made recently by the new
Chalmers five passenger touring car,
when with five passengers it made the
round trip between Los Angeles and
San Diego. burning nothing but distil-
late. has created a great deal OF inter-
est in coast motoring circles.
1.-THE newspaper men OF the Los
Angeles newspapers who acted as Of
fetal observers on the run were sur
prised that there was absolutely no diff
fculty in starting the engine In the
cool of the morning. The new CHAIN
ers engine is equipped with the Hot
Spot and the RAMS Horn manifold, and
these two devices handle the low-grade
fuel as readily as they do gasoline. And
mind you, without any disadvantageous
results to the engine. We use distiilate

said l.. M. Rash, who drove the car on
the record breaking trip.
1--WE averaged throughout thesentire

times travelled as high as 40 miles an
hour. I drove as ! usually do when on

owner will profit greatly BY tie infor-
nation to be derived from this Aource
alone.
A most mystifying thing shout a
motor is the ignition system. It is with
view to making 1t as plain to the
car owner as possible that firms like
the Edwards Warden Motor Parts
company, lntermountain Electric COM
pany and the Capital Electric company
have set up educational displays cover
ing this subject and delegated experts
to elucidate the theory. This is indeed
a big educational feature and one that
may be enlarged upon each year with
great profit to the show attendants
and also the men who sell ignition
systems and dispense ignition knowl-
edge.
The fact that there is no need to
educate the public to buy cars is sc
evident that it is not worth discussing
but the need for intensive instruction
in the more intricate things of the
motor car is apparent to all. To this
end the Victory auto show has III 9
