talked about automobile of the year
More than 10000 cars, valued at
over $35,O00,000, were sold in less
than II months, the greatest success
ever achieved by any fine car in its
first year on the market. It's feats
have established new motoring stand
ards for economy, endurance and re-

chassis, for instance, that set new
worlds mark for long distance endur-
ance on the Cincinnati speedway,
covering 3037 miles in so hours.
"In accomplishing this feat the
Essex actually travelled $3.50 miles in
"a hours ana % minutes, driving
time, as the American Automobile
Association officials stopped it twice
before the fifty hour period could be
completed beause rain and sleet made
the track too dangerous to continue
the run. In the first test the car
covered 1890 miles and in the sec
ond 1912 On the third it ran for the
full fifty-hour period.
another new mark was set by a
standard Essex touring car in Iowa
when it covered 1861 miles in "a
hours over frozen dirt roads. At
Grand Rapids, Mich, another Essex
established a new record for the run
to Mackinaw City when it made the
round trip, 521 miles in 81 hours
without stopping the engine.

why does not Hudson claim it, they
asked.
"The answer came in the an

that the builders of the Essex were
