low temperatures, but in the very thin
film which is on the cylinder wall there
Is very little difference between the
rates of absorption.
Our suggestion would be that to
demonstrate the claims made by the
company You referred to you drain the
crankcase of your car. washing it out
carefully with the new oil (not kero-
sene)and refill it with fresh oil. then
start your car as the average driver does.
using the chokcr in excess and running
with rich mixture. A dozen starts
made in this manner will usually dilute
the lubricating oil in the crankcase
sufficiently to be noticeable without
chemical analysis.
If you have any question in regard
10 this we will be very glad to show YOU
the results of some tests which we made
some time ago in regard to the amount
OF dllution as a result of the use of the
chokcr when starting.
We believe that in connection with an
article of this kind it would have been
better to have told the motorist to keep
his radiator properly covered in cold
weather and to minimize the use of the
choker when starting. Doing this will
go further toward overcoming dilution
troubles than will any change in the
brand of lubricants used

The following letter il from one Of
ihe leading oil companies:
To the Automobile Editor of The Trib-

Sir: For some time we have been
following your articles on the proper
care and operation Of motor vehicles.
These nave all contained information
which would be Of great value to the
motorisi If me would follow the sugges-
tons made
In & recent article entitled Engines

made whiea we feel were not strictly
correct
in the last paragraph Of this article
you state that by u special process
one company has produced an oil which

engine is mechanically dehcient) and
prevents contamination. The train of
winter troubles is thus almost entirely
eliminated"

Inclined 20 feel that such claim can
not be substautlated.

Cord Tires Surely
Pile Up Big Mileages

One Of the noteworthy features re-
garding the manufacture Of autom obile
tires in this country is the fact that
during the last five years tires have
improved 80 greatly in quality that
tho average number Of tires used on
an automobile during . year has
dropped from fve to considerably un
der four.
This drop has come, too, in the face
Of an increase in winter driving so
large as to be vital element in the
calculation. Many cars now operate
twelve months in the year, but in spite
Of this increased period Of service the
average annual consumption Of tires
per car has rapidly and speedily fallen
Not only has the length of life Of
tires become greater, but the quality
Of service rendered by them has i'm
proved to such an extent that tire
trouble is now the exception rather
than the rule. Motorists Of decade
ago considered themselves lucky if
they could finish a journey Of q few
tire trouble. To-day it is no uncom-
mon thing to drive across tho CONT
nent and back with no other tire mis-
haps than those caused by punctures,
class Of misfortune for which the
tire manufacturer can be held in no
way to blame.
The return to normal times is likely
to see the average consumption Of tires
go TO still lower levels. The war
period was manfestly An era Of cK-
travagance. Every one had plenty Of
money and such small item of ex-
pense as new tire was hardly suf-
ficient to get many motorists to show
proper respect to their tires. Many
castings which gave only good mile
age would have returned record break
ing performances had they been prop
erly treated.
With the return to normal times and
with money less plentiful, car owners
are certain to watch their expense bills
more closely. Tho exercise Of only q
moderate degree of care by the car
owners will lift the average mileage Sc
cured from tires to point many thou
sands Of miles above any hitherto
reached.
So far aa known, the best record ever
made on set Of four tires was that
Of Boston merchant who got 99,152
miles on set Of United States Royal
Cords. He attributed this phenome nal
record to tho care given to the tires
by MS chauffeur.
Dr. Rice, OF Northampton, Mass, has
recently reported two Royal Cords, one
of which gave 26,5o0 miles and the
other 34,60O miles. The third ono is
still on the car, with $4,000 miles to its
credit and looks to be capable Of many
miles more

Good Product, Sincere
Service, Is Formula

"There is no question that a good
product backed by a service policy that
is sincere will fnd! its reward in the
permanency and steady growth Of any
business" says George C. Lewis, pres
dent of tho L. A. D. Motor Corpora
ton, Brooklyn distributor for Nash
products. "Ths Is true no matter
what line Of merchandise man may
handle. The success of any business
is measured by the confidence the pub
lie reposes in it.
Looking at the matter of service
from the standpoint Of good business,
we know that a man whose require
ments are properly and promptly cared
for will be very much inclined to come
to US again when he is in the market
for another car, and that he will ear
nestly advise his friends to come to US.
This applies also to purchasers of used
cars, for our service policy on these is
exactly in keeping with that on new
cars.

Basis for Optimism

George ". Garland, who handles the
Velie. reports that when some weeks
ago the Nelie company announced an
increase in prices within short time.
he took the opportunity to tell his deal
ers and urge them to get as much Of
their allotment as they could before
the price increase went into effect
They responded, with a result that the
demand could not be fully supplied
Some of the dealers did not get all the
cars they wanted at the old price, but
without exception they continued their
orders at the new price. That is an
expression of confidence in the future
Of business in concrete form.

V-Shaped Front Has
Wide Vogue in London

"Out Of twenty-five all-inclosed cars
selected by The London Autocar gor spe-
cal mention az to excellent coach work
at the Olympic show, fifteen had V
fronts" says Glenn A. Tisdale, presi-
dent of the Franklin Motor Car Com
pany of New York. "No one will deny
the tremendous influence which the
English Rolls-Royce exerts on motor
ing circles on both sides Of the Allan
tic; SO the fact that the December IL
issue of The Autocar SHOWS the kolis-
Royce sedan with V-front on wide
one American designer and motor fan
as indicative Of the most advanced
thought in motor design.
'Indications are multiplying that the
V-front is rapidly meeting with favor
in this country also. This is d typical

Switching OFF Lights
Reaches English Drivers

Stcnson Cooke, secretary of the An
tomobile Association and Motor Union
Of London, has issued letter to the
members suggesting that they employ
the system of switching off their cleo
trio headlights when passing other
traffic after sundown. This is a Gus
tom that has been followed long time
to England. It is all right and cour-
teous thing to do, but if motorists gen.
orally will equip their cars with real
glare-preventing headlight glasses they
won't have to do this sort OF thing and
their own safety and the interests OF
others would be better served.
