Four or five years ago, by an error, many thousand cars of a certain make were put in the hands of drivers before a rear axle defect was discovered These drivers were reached regardless of cost, and each received not only a new rear axle, but it's free assembly into the car.

ROAD MILEAGE OF q SHOULD
 DOUBLE 1920

Five parallel trans continental high ways-duplicates of the Lincoln high way-would represent the highway construction completed in the various states during 1920.
 Approximately 10000 miles of new improved roads were finished, accord ing to reports sent in to the travel and transport bureau of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber company. Estimates from state highway engineers say thS~ half again and possibly double ths mileage will be completed during 1921
 Nebraska. Texas and Minnesota were among the leaders in total mile age Of new construction Nebraska built 1307.5 miles; Texas, 976.59; and Minnesota, 911.06. Nearly every state reports mileage under construction all most equal to the total actually fin ished. Many of the states were unable to submit figures on highway con- struction.
 1921 is expected to be the greatest road building year in the history of the country. Handicaps such as scarce and high priced materials and labor short ages will be absent this year. A mild winter, which tended to lessen the de- struction of roads, and an early. spring are favorable to the road building pro gram for 1921
 The states able to furnish reports and their mi1eages of complete high way follow.

These pictures show the unusual feat of four Fageol S1a ton trucks crossing the Pacific highway north of Oregon City which was recently un- der five feet of water for a quarter of mile
 The pictures were just received by the Ferguson -Keeler company. The fence on either side of the road was under about six inches of water, mak- ing it difficult to determine the exact location of the roadbed.
 When the trucks reached this flooded area the drivers found it impossible to go through the water without killing the engine, so they conceived the in genious idea of driving a truck up or the rear end of another, thereby keep ing the engine of the second truck above the level of the water. In this position the rear truck pushed thc front unit until by going too far to the right they ran off the pavement and became hopelessly mired in the mud and entangled with the fence. Two more trucks were then coupled in the same manner and driven past the stalled trucks and a chain fastened tc the front bumper of the first truck

, In compound low gear the rear truck
 of the front pair pushed the front truck and pulled the stalled trucks up onto the pavement through to their desti-
 nation. It is estimated that the one truck, besides carrying a 3-ton load pushed ahead 10 tons and drew about | 23 tons.
 The large crowd watching this all
 most impossible feat were of the opin- ion that there was no truck built that had sufficient power to move this
 enormous load, but after witnessing

ENGLISH HARDLY
 FANCY DUR CARS

Over in Merrie England they build motor cars that hug the road. The passenger sinks back in a luxurious davenport on wheels and starts up in astonishment and dismay if a reck- less chauffeur happens to vary from the straight and narrow path and happens over a bump or two. English cars are not constructed to stand the strenuous performance of the Ameri- can car, for English roads are ancient boulevards that have been ironed out by centuries of travel and chuckholes are a horror and an abomination-
 An English writer short time ago criticised the American car declaring that in Great Britain they sit in the car and not on it as we do in America; that there is more of the luxuriance of motoring according to the English mode and so on.
 Right back at this attack on the American made car came an American engineer with the statement that American cars are made for Ameri- can roads designed to meet American road conditions, which, unfortunately are not at all what is to be desired And he follows with a challenge to bring the English made car with its l English passenger over here and try them out on some of our rough stretches.

Public Appreciates Flexibility Of
 8-Cylinder Car

'sThe motoring public appreciates the flexibility of the eight cylinder motor" " says T. E. Jarrard, vice president Of Apperson Bros. Automobile company of Kokomo. Ind. ''But when it comes to getting economy, many people as- sume they have got to have a four cylinder car"
 'Tn engineering mechanics, it IS sometimes possible to design machine which combines the virtues of two distinct types of machine We have done just that with the Apperson Eight motor. We have given this motor the full f1exibility of the eight and the tight economy of the four. The design diea expressed by the eight with 80 less parts cuts a big figure in this motors thrifty operation. Everyone knows that when you eliminate movin,
 parts, you cut down friction, inertia and lost motion You take just so much sluggishness out of your motor. You make it possible to get the re- quired action-the necessary revolu- tions per minute-with lower gas ex- | penditure-
 Look all over the Apperson motor and you will be surprised to find how | few moving parts it actually has. It | is a. case of clean-cut, actual simplicity. l You won't. find lot of mechanism l concealed beneath a neat cover. This
 motor is just two very small, simplest possible fours highly refined and

The compound seven speed transmits sion, as originated by this company, and with which its trucks are equipped, embodies new principles in transmits sion design which, by it's performance during the three years of its use has been proven to be one of the most important and valuable improvements yet made in motor truck construction With no more gears than in an ordi- nary four-speed transmission, the Fageol compound gives five forward and two reverse speeds by the use of variable speed countershaft which is controlled by a separate lever.

Paige Capability ShoUn By Hard
 Demonstrations

Tt is easy for the boys to grasp quickly the points of excellence in a cars design and general outward ap- pcarance" says President Harry M. levitt of the Paige Detroit Motor Car company. "A cursory examination will also be sufficient to size up a car s fittings and equipment.
 NO amount of close inspection, how ever, will ever suffice to get at car s actual capabilities to deliver service on the road There is just one way to
 find out what car is good for and
 that is to drive tito demonstrate its capabilities by actual tests in every
 kind of traffic and over as many diff forent kinds of roads and grades as possible.
 "Paigo has recently enjoyed some public demonstrations which have con- firmed in rather dramatic fashion our faith in our new power plants. The demonstrations I refer to were made by Ralph Mulford, who piloted our new 6 66-a stock modelEup Pike's Peak over the cog railroad. the first t1mc any vehicle, other than an especially built cog locomotive, had ever made the ascent by that route A few days later MT.

FAMINE IN FUEL FEARED.
Experts Say the Production is
100000 Tons Weekly
Under Safety Mark.

Washington, April 26.-Genuine alarm
is felt in governmental, In transporta-
ton and In coal circles over the possi-
bility of fuel famine conditions existing
again the coming winter. This has been
reflected by President Harding himself,
by officials of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and the American Railway
Association and. lastly, by the more i'm
portant coal associations.
There simply is no market for coal
at this time-a time, IL is explained,
when heavy tonnage ought to he moving
from the mines to those consumers who
In ordinary times take advantage Of
spring prices and favorable transporta-
ton conditions to lay in their stocks.
The people are not buying any more
coal. it is stated, than is necessary for
their immediate needs. This does not
mean small consumers altogether. for
thousands of them have gone into the
market, as usual. but theirs is not the
big orders that count. Industries and
public utilities which usually buy in
large quantities in the spring and sum
mer are holding back. for the most part.
and are causing tho deepest concern on
the part of the Government
IL they continue their buying strike
through the spring and summer, it is
pointed out, they will create such IA sud
den demand for coal when coal weather
returns, it is insisted. as cannot be met
adequately.
Two reasons are given for the failure
OF the country to lay in its normal coal
supply at this tme-the business de-
preston, which has limited the demand
