ported that their difficulty was
keeping enough cars in their
show rooms to make proper
exhibit during the presentation
week.
In Waterloo, Ia, there was a
big cattlemen's convention on and
the Morris Motor Car company
kept two shifts of four men each
busy demonstrating the Type 81.
In Youngstown, o., more than
twice as many people as had
been formally invited attended
the opening showing of Type 81.
The Mabbett Motor Car company,
of Rochester, N. Y, was promptly
to bat a few days after the
showing started with a plea for
an increase in their quota of
cars.
In San Francisco and Los An
geles, Don Lee had such a jam
of people at his opening that the
crowds could not be handled at
all, and the same was true Of
number of other cities.

CADILLAC TYPE 81
SCORES BIG SUCCESS
EVERYWHERE SEEN

With both public and the deal
ers acclaiming the new Cadillac
cars Type 81, and with this ac-
claim reflected in orders which
have forced the factory into big
production, the new Cadillac can
be genuinely put down as a tre-
mendous success.
Since the car was first shown
to the public, the factory has
been overwhelmed with congratu-
lations. The reception given
Type 61 has been unanimous
throughout the country.
In the New York metropolitan
area, where Cadillac has long
been a leader, 1t has been given
marked approval.
Out on the Pacific coast It
even surpassed the mark of good
esteem in which 1t has always
been held, and the same condi-
ton exists throughout the coun-
try.
Comments from distributors
run along the following lines:
During the writer's 16 years
of handling the Cadillac auto
mobile. there has never been
such enthusiasm over a new type
as over the Type 61," says Ed
ward P. Clark, president of the
Western Massachusetts Cadillac
company, of Springfield, Mass.
"Type 81 Cadillac is the hand
soonest and finest car built in
America" is the comment of the

NASH SIX BREAKS
PAL0MAR HILL CLIMB
TEN YEAR RECORD
FEB. 20, "a, rs

The Nash Six holds the famous
Palomar hill climbing record
Word comes from California that
a stock sport model, previously
driven $500 miles in four weeks,
has broken the record of ten years
standing from the foot of Palomar
mountain to Baily hotel, a distance
! Of 1871 miles. The time was "a
minutes 40 seconds on raise Of
nearly 5000 feet; in one stretch Of
eight miles there are eighty sharp
turns.
The former record. established
in 1912. by a car stripped to the
chassis, was 35 minutes flat. TWEEN
ty cars since have attempted un-
successfully to lower that record.
1t had come to be regarded as un-
beatable until last week when Will
liam Halbritter, owner OF a Nash
sport model, expressed firm con-
viction that Nash Six would "out-
strip anything on four wheels on
any hill in the country"
'Then climb Palomar hill" he
was told. So the climb was ar
ranged. Mr.. Halbritter placed
Walter Folcke at the wheel, his
only instruction being to "break
the record"
The official report Of the run
relates that although the roads
were bad, after seven inches of rain
on the mountain, the start was
made and the record established.
The car had its top up and carried
three passengers.

WATCH YOUR OVERHEAD,
SAYS C. w. NASH TO
AUTOMOBILE DEALERS

Less extravaganza, more en-
ergy of the "old fashioned" kind
and closer watching of overhead
expense was the prescription
written by G. w. Nash for the
automobile industry just before
the opening of the Chicago show.
The advice was given by the
president of the Nash Motors
company at a meeting of Nash
dealers in Milwaukee.
G. B. Voorhis, vice president
and general sales manager of
the company, declared that indi-
cations point strongly to the first
peep of the sun over the hill and
that business generally this year
will show improvement.
"The day Of reckless extrava-
gance on the part Of the auto
mobile manufacturer and dealer
has come to an abrupt and defi-
mite end" said Mr.. Nash. Every
man in this industry who wishes
to survive must conduct his BUSH
ness as other lines of business
are conducted. Above all he must
eliminate waste; he must watch
his overhead as he never watch
ed 1t before.
"There never was an industry
so brutally murdered by unsound
business methods as the motor
car industry. That is why I adj
wise you dealers to get your house
in order and keep it in order.
The Nash Motors company has
passed through a sound year due
entirely to the fact that we have
been in a position to buy ma
terials as low as anybody and
our product priced accordingly
to the further fact that we con
stantly and everlastingly watch
our overhead expense"

Direct results-sales," is the
keynote in the kilograms receiv-
ed from dealers, who join in as
sorting that the reduction is
''highly stimulating" Indirect
results, in the form of prospec-
tive purchasers are announced
everywhere, for at is generally
admitted that the Cadillac at the
new price is a very extraordi-
nary value" as the situation is
summed up by the Cadillac deal
er in New Orleans, La.
Prospects for a bumper Cadil-
lac year are bright indeed, ac-
cording to the spirit reflected in
the messages. 1--WE shall sell at
least 100 per cent more cars than
we sold this year" comes a wire
from South Carolina, and the At
lanta, Ga. Cadillac company
adds:
1.-The reduction in price is the
most wonderful stimulant we
have ever known"

PUBLIC RESPONSE
PROMPT TO CADILLAC'S
RECENT PRICE CUT

Since the announcement Of a
substantial reduction by the Cad
lilac Motor Car company of De-
troit, Mich, in the price Of all
ten models of the Type 81 Cadil-
lac motor cars, messages have
swept by hundreds into the gem
eral offices reporting that the
buying public has responded i'm
mediately to the new standard
in automobile values set by the
lowered prices.
Embodying the same sterling
qualities which drew nation
wide ovation when 1t was intro
duced, the Type 81 Cadillac mo-
tor car is being accepted at the
new price as a purchase of sound
financial merit, the reports say,
adding that "live prospects" by
the score are appearing at the

in San Francisco, telegraphed:
1--WE expect this season to produce
the biggest trade we have ever
enjoyed, as the price has been
sufficiently cut to insure In the
minds OF the buying public a
stability of price for a lengthy
period"
How the nation has met the
reduction, and how the reduc-
ton has been accepted is touch
ed on in all kilograms and let
ters received at the general Of
fees. The opinions vary. 1T is
considered more substantial than
the best dopesters anticipated"
says a Nebraska dealer. but cit
is just about what most people
thought it should be-" is the
view from New Jersey.

The Bank OF Coney Island does
not fear the loss of money being
transferred to any of its branches
or New York City since securing
their new Armored speed Wagon.
A description of this car has just
been received by Mr.. Brittian of
the Paulln Motor company. local
REQ distributors.
The body is built of heavily
gagged steel, insi7e ana out, with
a sand-filler between the plates.
Extensive tests We're made TO de-
termine what resistance this
armor would offer and it was
found that the exterior plates
proved to be a perfect defense
against bullets fired at short range
from high-powered rifles. The in

odation of two employees of the

DRASTIC CUT IN
PRICES FOR THE
PREST-O-LITE BATTERY

Price reductions ranging from
IS to S3 per cent, and bringing
storage battery prices to the low
est point in years are announced
by the rest-O-Lite company,
through the Morrow Auto COM
pany. their local representatives
in Albuquerque.
Millions of dollars will be saved
to the motorists of America
through this price revision, for
the amount of money spent on
storage batteries is now second
only to tires in the automobile
accessory field.
This is the third reduction the

the latest type of magazine guns.
There are portfolios in the doors
and sides which can be quickly
opened in case of attack to allow
the guards to open fire. The pre-
Yalence Of robberies where mes
sengers were engaged in transfer
ring funds was the cause of this
bank securing an adequate means
OF protection. A number Of Off
Gals of large New York banking
concerns have inspected this speed
wagon and have expressed them
selves as being confident that the
safety measures provided will
Withstand any attack which might
be made upon the crew.

deal of attention while standing
before the bank or one of it's
branches at Coney Island.

within a year, and is the greatest
tory Of the company. A 6-volt
battery for Fords and other light
cars, for instance, can now be
bought for 5000. This identical
battery would have cost $4,000
a year ago and $4,000 in 1917.
A 12-volt battery for Dodge and
Franklin can now be bought for
1890, against $4t.S0 and $53,1O
year ago, effecting a saving of
S21.S0 in one short year to the
car owner. Proportionate prices
hold on all other types.

ated more than a little excitement

period Of years this company has
usually taken the lead in price
revision, but nothing like the

Tom Morrow, manager of the

Priest -OIite batteries are better
today than ever before. That is
proven by the way they are hold

Many Things to Learn.
On the nations birthday, therefore,
the American people should pledge
themselves to greater devotion to
American ideals, to more loyal and I'M
selfish service, and to stricter conform
ity to those great principles which lie
at the basis of the nations life. There
is great need for education, since much
of the failure to appreciate this coun-
try is due to a pitiable ignorance OF
its history, its institutions, and of all
that America has throughout its life
stood for. And this ignorance is often
the densest in the minds of those who
think of themselves as reformers. anti
who indeed are allowed to pose as
such. Men need to be very sure that
they know what liberty, as won by
people of the Anglican race, is. and
what are its safeguards. 1t is partic-
ularly necessary that they should I'M
derstand the right of minorities, and
should realize that there is such
thing as the despotism of majorities.
There are some things that a vote of
the majority cannot be allowed to
sanction, as our constitution recog-
nizes. Perhaps this is one of the most
important lessons to be learned, as il =
seems to be the most difficult to bring
home to men. The very restraints OF
which the uniformed so often com
plain have no other purpose than To
protect the helpless against the strong.
And this is q part of Americanism. -
