INDIANAPOLIS IS
 THE MOTOR CAR NOW

From unique crea tion for pleasure the motor car has assumed the position of one of the great indispensable fac tors in human life
 More autos are purchased now to serve some actual need than to satisfy the demands of pleasure. Many men who would hesitate to buy an automo- bile for pleasure are purchasing motor cars because they find in the automo- bile a means of increasing their earn ing capacity far beyond the cost of it's maintenance.
 But the car used for pleasure or for business or both, everything depends upon performance. Cole Aero Eighta. because of their perfect balance and that in-built service that reduces to the minimum service requirements, is proving immensely popular with motor car buyers.
 It has been proved that the original tire equipment on the Cole Aero Eight Is s-giving 15,00e miles and better Tn addition to this is a gas mileage of 12 to II miles per gallon, which, in an so horsepower eight-cylinder mo- tor is an achievement almost without parallel. engineers say. The Cole Aero Eight weighs only $500 pounds It is capable of high speeds. quick acceleration and it's shock absorbing frame not only pro tects driver and passenger from road shocks and bumps, but, by protecting delicate machinery adds years to the life of the car.
 Distinctive bodX lines made possible aero-type construction have satisfied all of the demands for the last word on correct motor car style. Cole Is playing a vital part in the elevation of the automobile to a high place in human existence.

DRIVING MOTORS FROM r FACTORY E
 POPULAR PASTIME
51,140 Automobiles Were Taken Over Roads of the West During the Month
 of April

total of 51, 40 automobiles were driven over the roads from western factories to their distribution centers in the east and other parts of the country in the month of April. That established a new high record in the motor car industry for over land drives. It exceeded the March rec ord by about 5000, for the number driven over the highways in that month was trifle more than 46000.
 These cars went to localities as far distant from the factory as 1000 miles, It furnishes another striking illustration of the inability of the railroads to take care of the motor car shipment business, and the manufacturers are recognizing that the greater part of their deliveries of new cars for the summer months, at least must be over the public highways.
 Alfred Reeves, general manager of the National Automobile Chamber of Com nerce spent two weeks visiting the fac tories of the middle west.
 Owing to the railroad difficulties and lack of freight cars the automobile in dustry at present is working on a basis of 6 per cent of normal" said Mir Reeves. "As a result of the bad railroad situation it is extremely difficult for the factories to get many necessary ma terials and curtailed production is con- pulsory on this account. So far as the home demand for cars is concerned there has been practically no falling off all though it is true that in some localities there has been a very slight decrease. On the other hand, from foreign countries the demand is steadily increasing. The basis for the continuA big demand in this country IS due to the fact that the motor car industry, when it began to readjust itself to peace-time conditions. faced a situation of 1000,00o cars short of the de- nand, and it has not vet caught up Sta tistics show that of the cars in use there are about one-sixth renewals each year. As there are g little less than 7oo0,00o passenger cars in the country more than GOO cars would be required to meet these renewals
 ''Regardine the financial situation. the motor car industry views with satisfae- tion the deflation of credits and is thor ouehly agreeable to join with other in dustries in curtailing exransion. In an swer to the criticism still made in some circles that automobiles are a luxury the officials of the national chamber have told Governor Cox of Ohio and other state and national authorities that the in- dustry will be willing to agree to a ten day prohibition of the use of motor ye- hicles throughout the country to test the question whether the motor vehicle is more of a luxury than a necessity. I am willing to admit that perhaps 20 per cent of the automobiles in use may be ciassed as pleasure cars being used for nothing else but of the other so per ceft the great majority of which are passenger cars it is quite true that they fulfill real and essential need to their owners and the community at large. They may at times be used for pleasure touring. and that is quite right. but their funda- mental use is essential

WHAT TAXES UP A DRIVING STRAIN?
Force Between Driving Axle and Rest of Car Must Be
 Taken Up Some Way

What takes up the driving strain of your car when you stop and start your automobile?
 You, no doubt, have thought of your motor car as just moving along without any particular force being exerted be- tween the driving axle and the rest of the car. The fact is that the power necessary in driving an automobile must be transmitted in some manner or form from the rear axle to the bulk of the car. When you consider the rear axle as a unit and that it generates two power forces then it is instantly appre- ciated that provision must be made for them," says H. K. Burns, local Cleve- land Six distributor.
 The drive thrust, or pushing force, is the first of these forces; the other is the twisting of the car upon the center O. it's drive shafts which has a tendency to make the front of the axle drop and the rear rise when the car makes quick start. In event that the brakes are applied suddenly, the opposite ac- tion takes place This reaction is called the torque
 This twisting action of the driving axle can be counteracted by three sys- tems. The first is by using a torque tube housing for the propeller shaft, or a special tordue arm. Then there is another method by which the springs ab- sorb it, in addition to taking up the driving thrust which pushes the ear along.
 The latter of these systems is known as the Hotchkiss drive. You no doubt have heard of it, but do you really un- derstand how it functions?
 With the first system mentioned, the propeller shaft tubular housing is bolted to the forward part of the axle hous- ing, and extends to the rear of the gear
  fastens to the driving shaft extending from the latter part of the propeller shaft. A slip joint is used to allow for the end-wise movement for the follow ing reason: When the rear axle moves up and down, under the action of road irregularities, it moves in the arc of circle. The center of the circle is the front end of the spring.
 Now, take the second method. that of using a torque arm. Two universal joints are used on the propeller shaft, and the forward end of the torque arm is supported and made secure to a cross member of the frame. In this case, too, provision must also be made to allow for slight endwise movement of the torque arm. the movement being regulated ac- cording to the distance from the front end of the arm to the forward end of the rear springs.
 ''The last of these methods is known as the HotchlNss drive. It is not men, tioned last because it is the least popu- lar. for it is found on many of the best cars today. In the Hotchkiss drive the springs not only push the car, but also absorb the torque reaction Two univer- sal joints are used, which counteract any tendency to bend or strain. The system is indeed simple, having fewer parts, thus eliminating rattles, and at the same time insuring a yerey flexible drive"

LOOSE FAN BELTS

Sometimes an engine will overheat for no apparent reason. We knew of man who fussed with his power plant for week trying to find out why he couldn't take moderately long run without having the engine excessively hot. Finally he discovered that the fan belt was loose and was not being driven at the right speed due to the slipping. If you can't do good job of tighten ing the belt, better take it to a harness man and get him to shorten it slightly so as to give you an efficient fan drive. Motor Life
