AS general sales manager and vice
president OF the Semmes Motor
Company, Mr.. Semmes appeared at
police headquarters one afternoon
during the past week and asked In
spector Grant. chief Of detectives. to
step outside the District Building for

AUTO SOCIETY
EXECUTIVE NOW
W|THHUDSONCO
H. G. Mock Will Direct Mer-
chandizing for Big Detroit
Manufacturers.

After four years as general man
ager of the National Automobile
Dealers Association. Harry G. Mooch
has resigned to become the director
of the department o. merchandis-
ing with the Hudson Motor Car
Company and the Essex Motors Com
pany OF Detroit. The department Is
newly created and Mooch's work
largely will be in assisting the Hud-
SON Essex dealers and distributors
with their merchandising problems.
Mooch has been in the automobiie
business ten years, five OF Which
were spent as a dealer automobile
salesman, and the remainder in as
ISOLATION activity. He helped organ
ize and became manager OF the
Rocky Mountain Automobile Trade
Association, the first Interstate au-
tomobile trade association in the
United States. When the National
organization was formed his record
of accomplishments with the Rocky
Mountain Association drew imme-
date attention to him as the local
head of the new national organiza-
ton and he was placed in charge
in 1918 when the headquarters were
opened in st. Louis.
Prior to his entry in the autoVobile
business Mooch was a bond and in
surance salesman. He is thoroughly
familiar with selling methods from
his many years on the firing line
and will take with him in his new
work adequate equipment to meet
the many problems now confronting
the motor car industry.
His record in association work Is
an outstanding feature Of the great
success OF the National Automobile
Dealers Association.

Excessive Gasoline Consumption.

Excessive use OF gasoline is due
to a faulty Carburetor adjustment

the manufacture of his own product
aroused widespread interest. Futh-
ermore, his idea OF laying out and
building a model Industrial center
for contented workers at Marysville,
Michigan, on the st. Claire River,
was an innovation that Immediately
characterized his project as q most
unusual undertaking.
The new town of Marysville 10
now about two years old and the
Wills Stainte Claire cars are about
one year old. The five passenger
touring car was the first job to
reach the public and this was
quickly followed by a roadster. a
coupe and a sedan. A limousine
and a town car complete the line.
The standard color Of the touring
car is a rich Huron blue. For the
roadster the colors the Lady Mary
green, and for the enclosed jobs
the choice Of colors Is Wills Sainte
Claire blue, Princess Mary lake or
Brewster green. The roadster mas a
rumble seat, accommodating two
persons in comfort. When not in
use it folds under the rear deck
All models have steel disc wheels
Of special Wills design and cord
as standard equipment.
8-Cylinder Engine.
All Wills Sainte Claire cars are
built on a standard chassis. powered
with an enight cylinder engine OF inc
twin-four type, V shaped and set
at an angle OF sixty degrees IN order
to eliminate the usual period OF VI
brations. The power plant is OF over
head valve and camshaft construc-
ton and is credited with being
striking example Of simplification 81
design, as Mr.. Wills has succeeded In
eliminating chains, belts ana other
practices which he considers Obsolete.
Another feature OF the car that
makes II unique is the fact that II ID
the first automobile of molybdenum
construction to reach the market.
1t was c. Howard Wills that applied
yanadium steel TO motor car pur-
poses. Realizing, however, the need
of a steel that would combine Q
superlative degree of strength and
durability to effect his ideals, he
developed molybdenum steel, q new
alloy, which enables him to secure
strength and durability to the degree
desired and yet to keep the weight
of the car remarkably low.
There are almost a score OF new
and basic features embodied In the
Wills Sainte Claire car and they
undoubtedly account in large meas
ure for the records made by the
Marysville product in its various
sensational cross country runs and
the reliability and ease OF riding
which 1t makers claim.
