expended despite the fact that roads
are of benefit to all and should be
paid for by all.
Summing up these facts, it is the
belief of those IN the American
Automobile Association that an un-
just burden would be added to the
owner by the imposition of further
taxes, a burden which would in fact
add measurably to the cost of trans
portation and which could have the
same influence as high rates have
had in the railroad neld-a gradual
drying up of revenue which in time
must perceptibly affect the national
income.
The average assessed value of
automobiles in the District of Co
lumbia is about $500. Assuming
that all cars in the United States
are assessed at $500 each. the total
assessed value of the 100000 cars
would be about $4,000. 900. 900.
Taxed 8 Per Cent Now.
The present tax of s349,0 900. 900,
therefore means that the average
motorist is now taxed on his car
S.65 per cent
When ii is realized that the aver
age property owner in the District
OF Columbia pays only 1875 per cent
and that the figure is not much
greater than this throughout the
country, II will be readily seen that
the burden TO the motorist is al
ready excessive.

RIDE FOR EVERYONE
in MARMON WEEK
Auto Company Will Repeat
Demonstration Idea to
Boost Car.

Preliminary plans have been
practically completed for the coun-
try-wide demonstration week to be
held during the week of August
15-2O by Nordyke and Marmon
Company and its representatives.
When the demonstration week
was introduced last October its
unusual features caught the fancy
of the public to such an extent
that it was felt that it should be
an annual institution. The idea
back Of such a week is to make a
ride in the "Marmon "a" an actual
experience for every one. In con-
junction with this ride. there was
introduced last year the Marmon
scorecard, on which the passenger
was asked to make his own COM
PARSONS OF the Marmon and other
cars on twelve basic points. II
was the beginning of selective
buying in the motor car field. Nc
broad claims were made, the COM
parisons were left entirely to the
judgment of the purchaser, the
case was in his hands.
The same general scheme will
be followed this year. Throughout
the entire country Marmon dis.
tributOrs and dealers will be CO.

the end that during the week the

MOVING SIMPLE
JOB WITH TRUCK,
COUPLE LEARNS
Jump From Cleveland to
Detroit at Lower Rate
Than by Rail.

When an elderly couple. living on
whitethorn Avenue. Cleveland, were
told by their 1son-in-law that they
could move to Detroit without los
ing a single night under their own
roof, they merely looked at each
other and smiled
They had never heard OF such q
thing before. Breakfast at 6 o'clock
and asleep at 10 o'clock that night
in a new home 203 miles distant
was something which they were in
clined to take with the proverbiai
grain of salt.
Forgot improvements
Within the family circle the mat
ter Of moving had been up for dis
cussion frequently. only to be cas-;
aside each time at the thought Of
Grating and packing. shipping de-
lays and tie inconvenience and ex-
pense of living in temporary quar-
ters The same disagreeable feat
ures that worried their grand
parents worried this present-day
couple. for they took no account
of the improvements that motorized
transportation had brought about.
What they finally learned through
the use of a pneumatic-tired Pack
ard moving van operated py the
Wayne Furniture and Packing Com
pany Of Detroit, was that the Job of
moving had lost practically all OF
It's terrors, real or fancied. Within
a maximum Of twelve hours they
found that every piece of furniture
in their possession could be moved
from Whitethorn avenue, Cleveland
to Clairmont avenue. Detroit, with
no Grating or packing in the ordi'
nary sense of the word, and with
excellent assurance Of the prompt
and safe arrival of the load.
In addition to all of this they dis
covered the cost Of the job to be SAL
less than it would have been By
rail. The trip was made under very
poor road conditions. which neces

Another recent innovation in our
manufacturing policy is the hon
ing of cylinders. Every cylinder is
honed by a special process until it
is as smooth as glass. 1t is. in
reality, the old hand honing process
adapted to a machine operation. A
series of honing stones are mounted
on the outside of a cylindrical fix
ture and held against the surface
Of the cylinder by individual
springs. This gives a floating con-
struction in which the stones are in
a flexible position so that they do
not force themselves roughly
against the cylinder wall. A smooth
surface is gained and the cylinder
bore is held within very close
limits.
