$50 CARS AT COMIN6 SHOW.
Exhibition in January
VIII Beat All Records.

American made cars only will be on
exhibition at the twenty-first National
Automobile Show. which will be held in
Grand Central Palace January t o
January is. With eighty-seven differ
ent manufacturers allotted space, the
exposition will be the biggest that has
ever been seen in this country. Several
new cars will be on the floor for the
first time and in all about $50 of the
latest models in the motor car world
VIII be exhibited
There will be improvements noticed In
the cars at the coming show, but for the
most part these will be of a conservative
character. The betterments tend toward
efficiency and economy. No radical
changes are expected in body lines. FOR
the basic principles of last year proved
so popular that they are for the most
part being retained. Here and there
will be found improved hood and wind
shield designs.
Automobile men are greatly impressed
with reports from throughout the coun-
try regarding improved conditions in the
trade. That these have not been ex-
aggerated is shown by the tendency in
the East Last week the dealers OF
Jersey City held the first show ever
housed in that city. This proved the
automobile buying public had again en-
tered the market. for in one day at the
display more than a dozen cars were
sold, and every sale was bona fide one.

are all crowned. that is. they are con-
sderably higher in the centre than on

will run off instead of forming pools,
which disintegrate the pavement. But

JERSEY CITY WANTS NEW ROAD
Chamber of Commerce Campaigns
for state Highway to Tunnel.

A campaign for the construction by
the State of a highway from the Jersey
entrance of the proposed Hudson River
vehicular tunnel through Jersey City
has been inaugurated by the Jersey City
Chamber of Commerce.
The chamber is distributing thousands
of copies OF pamphlet urging the eX-
tension of the state highway system, so
that road may extend from the tunnel
mouth through Jersey City and down
TO Camden to the plaza of the proposed
bridge to Philadelphia. The voters of
the State have already approved the
bond Issue for financing the construc-
ton of the tunnel under the Hudson
and the bridge over the Delaware TO
Philadelphia.
out of courtesy TO the international
Rotary, whose Jersey clubs have been
most enthusiastic in urgine the con-
struction of the tunnel and bridge. the
new route has been christened THE
Rotary Highway" by the City Develop
ment Plan Board of Engineers of Jersey
City
The new Rotary Highway. as it is de-
scribed in the pamphlet, will tap all the
main arteries up to the interior dis
tricts of Jersey City. the Lincoln High
way the BelleVille Turnpike, the New
ark Turnpike and the proposed new
vehicular bridge from Fifty-ninth street,
Bayonne to Port Newark. The cost OF
construction of the Rotary Highway
through Jersey City alone will be be-
tween 100000 and s5,0O0,0oo. 1t Is the
intention OF the Jersey City Chamber TO
campaign for an amendment to the
State Highway law making possible he
construction of the entire route by the
State. The present law does not permit
the highway commission to construct
roads within the limits of city.

TRUCK SHOW PLANS COMPLETE.
VIII BE Held In Two Big ArmOries
Early In January.

Plans for the holding of n highway
transportation show have been COM
pleted by the Motor Truck Association
OF America, Inc. and drawings for
space by exhibitors We're made last
week The exposition will be held from
January 3 to 8.
The show will be held at the Twelfth
Regiment Armory at Sixty-second street
and Columbus avenue. and at the First
Field Artillery Armory. SiXty-eighth
street and Broadway. T. ID. Pratt is
general manager The exhibits will in

of Economics and others.
The purposes of the show are to dem
onstrate both through discussion and
display the necessity of national high
way system to support the general ana
economic use of the motor truck and to
educate the public in the advantages OF
the truck as a means of transport.

gets in the way too soon there will be
a smash up.
1t ought to be said to the credit of
present day drivers. that disa strous
skids are not so frequent as formerly.
This Is in part due to the increasing
weight of cars. for while added weight
adds momentum. and would seem to
make the danger greater, in fact. be-
cause of the weight. the film of water Is
squeezed from under the tire so that It
has somewhat better traction even under
adverse conditions This cannot be pre-
sumed upon. however for 1t is true that
very heavily laden trucks skid very
badly.
The worst time for sl1idding has now
come. Water does not evaporate so
quickly. now that the cooler days are
here and occasionally there may be a lit
tie ice. 1t Is true that all seasons of the
year are favorable for skidd.ng. since
all that is needed is a wet smooth pave
ment to produce it. but when the frosty
days come. with ice and a little later
slush or snow, the necessity for caution
increases.
Then, too, 1 suppose, the very cold
makes the driver and his passengers
eager 10 go faster-to get there out of
the cold-and so caution Is cast TO the
winds The car runs UP close behind
another vehicle. brakes are damned on
hard and the car sl<ids straight ahead.
or it may be that at an intersection an
other car comes out of the side street.
and to avoid an accident the driver turns
his wheel, swerves quickly TO one side,
and the car gets away from him by a
skid
The skid turning the corner is the
most frequent one, and very often In
such a case all four wheels skid. Apply
ing the brake usually will overcome
front wheel skid When the rear wheels
start to skid. if there Is room enough to
let the car coast, turn the front wheels
in the direction in which the car Is
skidding Then, as the wheels begin to
take hold, apply the brake gently, with
the clutch engaged. This will prevent
locking the wheels, which. revolving
slowly, give some traction.
The average driver laughs at a skid
until he has experienced a real one.
Then he fears It, Wise is he who learns
to know the cause and how to overcome
it wiser STILL If he applies his knowl-
edge to prevent 1t, for this is a case
where a fractional part of an ounce of
prevention is worth several tons of cure.
