dicted that the government will es-
innate the yield in tho neighborhood

shrinkage OF 100000 bales within a

Numerous DeUices,
Original and Useful,
Seen in accessories

Visitors to the third and fourth floors
of the Grand Central Palace, where
New York's annual automobile show
is in full swing, are being introduced
to the intricacies Of the automobile &C.
cessory lines. The 300 accessory as
sortsments contain many new features
designed to give greater motoring eff
cheney, comfort and protection to pas
senger cars.
A bumper that compels the car
owners interest because of its
broad face, which prevents another car
from ramming the machine below or
above the bumper of usual width, Is
one of the new devices. This appliance
is made for front as we'll as rear at
tachment, and is one of the improve
ments that have distinct accident pre-
vention value.
A four-color glare absorber, invented
bv a physician, for the protection of
the drivers eyes and which fits on the
windshield, is another accident pre-
vention device on display.
A device which represents to the
automobile in cold weather what an
overcoat is to the driver, is an auto
matte radiator shutter. While improv-
ing the appearance Of the radiator, this
accessory completely covers and pro-
tects the radiator while cold and opens
after the radiator temperature has
passed 1870 degrees Fahrenheit. An ad-
vantage claimed for it is increased
mileage by enabling the driver to op-
crate the car on summer adjustment
Of the carburetor.
Pads which prevent the foot slipping
from the pedals are designed by an
other exhibitor for every make Of car.
For the person who would clean his
Windshield without loss Of time and
while using his car, an automatic
cleaner which operates like pendulum
and needs only to be pushed along the
top of the shield, is clever labor
saving device. Installed in few min
utes, and requiring no attention, it
costs nothing to operate.
Punctures and blowouts are practi-
cally eliminated by tire protector
which is being shown at the exposition
or the first time. Shaped like tire,
it fits between the inner tube and the
casing and, according to affidavits of
carowners who have used the protector,
tire punctures and blowouts are sell
dom possible with its use.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-12

says G. H. Larson, president of the
New York Oldsmobile Company. 5.
1T is, Of course, to be expected that
metropolitan newspapers, particularly.
should be reticent on the subject OF
their role in aiding tremendously an
almost incredible growth of our mira
Gle industry" Mr.. Larson saws. ut is
a tradition Of journalism that news
paper writer's and executives, snd the
publication themselves as institutions,
should not indulge in self-praise.
but every one associated in intimate
manner with the world of the auto
mobile is deeply sensible of the truth
that the press Of the country-openly
hostile at the dawn of the industry
twenty-odd years ago, it must be con-
fessed-has been one Of the most i'm
portant of all the factors that have
contributed to make that industry what
it is.
Newspapers have done this because
they have been willing to recognize the
automobile and it's activities as news.
The printed word that chronicled the
achievements of the motor car in en-
durance, gasoline, hill-climbing, speed
and other contests; that told of the in
creasing utility. economy and simpli-
tication, Of mechanical features of the
automobile, and that recorded the
steadily growing confidence of the pub
lie in its new-found means of transpor-
tation, has been invaluable.
