Harry $. Houpt. the New York dis
tributor OF Hudson and Essex cars. in
discussing the new car. said
while there are many improvements
and refinements. there are no radical
changes IN the car. 1t is simply a
greater Hudson Super-Six that should
be seen by every one interested in
motor car construction and design.
"Since the advent of the Super-Six
over five years ago over 10000 Hud
cons have been sold, and for many
years this car with its wonderful
patented motor and compensated crank
shaft has been one Of the acknowledged
leaders in the medium priced car field
such changes as have been made
have had to do very largely with inn
proving its appearance, appointments
and riding qualities, together with GER
tain mechanical refinements that adj
greatly TO the comfort OF the driver and
passengers.
The most important changes from
the owners viewpoint have been effected
in the drivers compartment, where GER
tain construction changes in connection
with the steering wheel, pedal and con-
troll lever action give Operation with
out effort which should appeal par
ticularly to women drivers.
'"rhe operation OF the steering wheel
Is exceptionally easy, while the clutch
and service brake action respond TO a
slight pressure of the foot. The accel-
orator pedal Is now placed to the right
of the brake pedal, which allows q
restful foot position. A ball and cone
type of gear shift control arrangement
replaces the old III" plate type and the
lever location greatly facilitates the
speed changing operation. A gear shift
lock is also standard equipment.
'The clutch thrust bearing grease cup
used in previous models has been elimi-
mated by redesgning the clutch and In
cooperating a large annular ball throw

front seat occupants has been assured

giving more knee room. Appearance has
been enhanced by grouping the instru-
ments In the centre. and the dash light.
being placed at the top OF the group,
makes night reading more discernible
THE exterior appearance of the new
Hudson emphasizes still further advance
+ ment In beauty Of line. Deep crown
tenders that are really mud guards have
replaced the previous type. The front
tenders have aprons that extend to tire
extreme front end OF the spring hangers.
There is a splash apron placed between,
the front spring horns which not only
adds to the appearance of the car but
also affords further protection. @
Then too. we have a surprise in store
for the man who Is looking for medium
priced enclosed car. His needs will bc
met in the latest ESSEX. "the coach"
This is new type for all seasons, five
passenger capacity. and il fulfils all the
requirements of business and profes-
sional men with economy and satisfac-
ton. 1t is also amply large to meet the
family need In both city and country
service" -
