STATE AND MUNICIPAL
OFFICIALS URGE LAW
TO CHECK THEFTS

Automobile stealing has increas-
ed so rapidly in the last three years
and grown to such vast proportions
that the urgent need for federal
regulation of this modern form Of
piracy has become recognized by
state and municipal as well as
federal officials throughout the.
country.
The New York Herald has made
a survey Of the situation. The re-
suit is startling. The theft of the
motor car has developed into one
Of the greatest agencies for crime
breeding.
Not only has the automobile
bandit placed levy of nearly
500, 100000 on the automobile in
dustry-for that is the estimated
value of motors stolen last year
but with this vehicle available for
theft at almost every street cor
ner in congested cities and at
crossways in the rural districts, a
new means of flight and escape
is offered to the crook in what
ever field he practices.
The recoveries last year amount
ed to 40 per cent of the thefts.
! Twenty-one cities show q greater
number of stolen cars in 1921 tlian
in preceding years. The cities in
which there is a decrease are
Cleveland, Portland, Ore, Seattle
Salt Lake City. Columbus, Ohio
York, Pa, and Richmond, Va.

AVERAGE MOTOR CAR

Who is the average motor vehi-
Gle buyer? A hard question to
answer because it very nearly par
allels the query "Who is the aver
age citizen?"
But composite pictures Of the
motor vehicle buyer are not lack
ing. Probably the best statistics
on the buyer in existence are those
gathered by the great acceptance
sales corporations who annually fl
nance millions of dollars worth of
time payment sales and who con-
slider the automobile borrower the
safest risk they ever lent money
upon.
One of these concerns has sup
piled the National Automobile

not over $4,000. The number of
motor fatalities for the country in
1921 was 1850. In the few Sec
lions where non-fatal accidents are
recorded the ratio averaged about
rs persons injured to one killed,
not including grade CROSSING acct
dents where the ratio is arout 3
to |. Massachusetts had 81 injur-
les to every fatality in 1921. New
York city had 25.1 non-fatal ac-
cidents to every mortality APP
plication of the 25 to 1 ratio to
the 1850 gives $4,000.
Why Highways VIII BE Safer,
ut is reasonable to believe that
highways will have better safety
record in 1922, because the public
is increasingly awake to the fact
that individual transportation
brings individual responsibility,
Massachusetts halved its acci-
dent record in one year
'Twenty-eight cities reduced
their motor fatalities in 1921.
"Cities are protecting the dan
gerous traffic spots.
"The railroads are conducting ar
| excellent and constructive cross
crossings cautiously campaign.
More Fairgrounds are being de-
veloped.
"The public is laughing the 'au
to-boob' out of existence.

Gators are training children in pro
per conduct on the highways.

HILL CLIMBING IN
ARIZONA BY MAXWELL
REPORTED BY WOOD

1--WE ares accustomed to hearing
of seemingly impossible hill climbs
made simple by the good Max
WELL" says M. II. Wood, local Max
we'll dealer, but one of the most
remarkable I have ever heard of
in my entire experience with auto
mobiles is reported from small
town and a big hill down in Ari-
Eona.
"Schnebley hill, on the fringe of
the desert, overlooking Sedona,
Ariz., is seven miles long. 1t is
really a sizeable mountain. The
road to its summit is no more than
a wagon track, boulder-strewn
curved and double-curved, almost
impossible. A mighty tough climb
for an automobile, you'll agree, I'M
der the most favorable conditions.
Yet, a good Maxwell touring car
reached the summit of Schnebley
hill, carrying ten passengers plus
100 pounds of water, which had
been added to bring the load up
to 1900 pounds.
''At some points the hill reaches
, 80 per cent grade. In one spot
where there is pitch of this de-
gree the party encountered deep,
sticky clay, placed in the road to
repair dangerous washouts, but the
good Maxwell pressed through II

climb had to be made in low gear

WARNING TOURISTS
TO LEAVE YUCCA
BLOSSOMS ALONE

Motorists from the east enter

ed not to pick the gorgeous yucca
blossoms found along the high

passed an ordinance protecting
these stately desert flowers, which
grow only in Mexico and southern
California. They attain height
of eight to twelve feet.
The law was necessary, accord
ing to a statement by the Los AM

cause the yuccas were in danger

Says President Alvan Macauley:
During May, the last month IN
the third quarter, the company be-
gan for the first time to receive
the benefit from the sales of its
new light six car and from other
products manufactured from ma
terial purchased at current low
price levels. Profits for the month
amounted to about s43o,0o0. The
month Of May, therefore more
nearly represents the company's

that the year as a whole viii be

ing that the newly arrived east

been made misdemeanor to pick
the yucca.

RUSTED TENDERS.

The common cause of tenders
rusting at the fastenings is neglect
in not washing the under side of
the tenders, which are sure to ac-
cumulate a certain amount of dirt
and mud. A rust preventive or an
application of oil, will aid in pre-
venting this condition, but the most
reliable precaution is to prevent
the accumulation of mud.
