SECRET ANTI-WAR
PACT CONFIRMED
Allies and Germany Negotiate
Plan Proposed by Lloyd George.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 29.-That Sc

between the allies and Germany is
taking place has been virtually con-
f1rmed in an authoritative quarter.
bearing out limitations made to the
United News here Tuesday.
Information as to just how far the
discussion has progressed is frag-
mentary. Two days ago it was said
that this Government is using its
good offices TO bring about an anti
war pact between the allies and Ger
many. President Harding favors the
idea, but whether he has received
enough encouragement from allied
powers to warrant formal negOtia-
lions is uncertain. Also, it is Uncer-
tain where the first suggestion came
from.
However. the United States viii not
officially commit itself to the indorse-
ment OF the plan, unless it is certain
that all powers " lld approve. The
anti-war pact l. was proposed by
David Lloyd se at Cannes and
at Genoa, but met with opposition
from France.

New Quarters For
 Buick Closed Cars

l. Flint. Mich, July 22.-On August 1, the Buick Motor company Will start assembling all closed cars manufactured by them in the plant formerly occupied by the Scripps- Booth company in Detroit. according to an announcement today by H. H. Bassett, president of the company.
 The factory contains about 350,0o0 square feet of floor space and was originally designed for automobile production, MT. Bassett states.
 For the past seven months the Buick Motor comapny has been out fitting the plant. putting in enamel ing ovens, conveyor systems and making 1t strictly up to date" Mir. Bassett said. This new assembly plant will have a capacity of 400 closed cars per day. The motors, transmission, axles, sheet metal work, radiators and other chassis parts will be manufactured at the plant in Flint and sshipped in carload lots to the new assembly plant in Detroit.
 Due to the fact that for years all the Buick closed bodies have been manufactured in Detroit by tho Fisher Body corporation, which is a sister company in the General Motors corporation, the many advan- tages of having an assembly plant located in the same city are evident. With the demand for closed cars this

FORD BUILDS OWN
 WINDSHIELD GLASS
Departs From Customary Methods and Applies
 Ford Principles

The Ford Motor O., Detroit, has begun to manufacture it's n plate gl- ss. and already has in operation the first modern glass house ever equipped especially to make glass for automobiles.
 As is customary when taking over the manufacture of a new product, Ford has applied his own principles of production and, as a consequence. the methods and machinery used in iHlking Ford glass are radical de- parture from established practice. The Ford continuous conveyor sys- tenn features the operations so that the time the glass leaves the fur mace until it becomes a polished windshield, it is always moving.
 Glass making, when viewed in the Ford plant, looks to be very sim. pie. The raw materials are intro duced into the furnace where they become 8 molten mass. Drawn from the furnace in a semiliquid state. the glass passes under q roller, which gives 1t width and thickness, and on to moving coaveyor. This carries 1t for 46i feet through a gradually cooling furnace. At the end, 1t is cut and placed on another conveyor which carries. it through the grinding and polishing. after which it is ready for use.
 This adds a new link to the fast growing chain of Ford industries which are being established and ex- banded from time to time In line with the Ford policy to achieve com plete independence of outside mate rial sources in manufacturing Ford products. and at the same time are the means by which Ford is enabled to use in the production of motor cars. trucks. and tractors. material of unusually high quality and sell them at the famous Ford prices.

ear in contests for two years and has never been beaten.
 The contest included three sections general reliability, patrol con- sumption and hill climbing. The general reliability section comprised a sealed bonnet nonstop engine run, points being deducted for ef- fecting any repairs. adjustments or replacements to the car including tire repairs which occupied mora than A limited time. The cars had to be fully loaded and in complete touring condition 50 that actual touring conditions were duplicated to the greatest extent possible.
 The test for petrol consumption was from Sydney to Kurratong Heights and return. more than 1O2 miles. "A combination of rather poor roads, sSain and the mountainous country made 1t very thorough test of the merits of each car entered,' according to the Sydney Herald.
 Petrol consumption was decided on the R. A. C. formula" says this paper, "fn which the dIstatnce (miles per gallon) Is multiplied by the re- suit of dividing the weight in pounds bv 234o, The hill climb was also decided by formula, the time in sec onds and horsepower being multi piled together, and the result di- vided into the weight of the car in pounds"
 The Essex made the 1o2 miles on 2.ss gallons of petrol, averaging ss.70 miles per gallon. It was given 100 points for this remarkable feat. a similar number for placing first in the hill climb and a perfect 200 In reliability.

move on the part of the Buick Motor company looks to be most timely one as it will give them much more direct shipping facilities as well as enable them to turn out their closed cars and eliminate the long haul from Detroit to Flint"
 This additional capacity In the De- troit plant will also release addition al open car production at Flint, thus allowing the Buick company to plan for a much larger manufacturing schedule which Is necessary on ac- count of the constantly increasing demand.
 The Detroit assembly plant will be known as factory No. 75 and will be operated directly under the gem eral supervision of the Flint plant. The organization will be composed of executives and men from the main plant at Flint.
 MT. Bassett asserts that when the plant is in full operation. 1t Is ex- pected that there will be a force of from 750 to 1000 employees al work in this factory.

DIFFERENCE IN
 AR PRESSURE
No Need to Change Air in Tires on Account of
 Altitude

A tourist In the west recently raised the interesting question whether in going from the low alti- tude of the plains to the high alti- tude of the mountain districts he ought to let some air out of his tires because of the difference In air pressure at the higher level.
 In replying to the inquiry the technical service department of the United states Tire company said:
 We find that there Is difference of air pressure in tires as measured by standard gauge, depending upon the altitude, the higher the altitude the greater the air pressure. At sea level a tire with a gauge reading 675 pounls to the square inch would have, If the I5-pound pressure of tho surrounding air were removed, an absolute pressure of S2.5 pounds to the square inch. At an elevation of 1900 feet, where the atmospheric pressure has fallen to 12 pounds, q gauge pressure of 70.5 pounds would be necessary to raise the absolute pressure to S2.5. Similarly at 10000 feet--if such a height could ever be reached by q motor car-the atmos- pheric pressure would be reduced to 7.5 pounds, making a gauge pressure of 5pounds necessary to bring the absolute pressure up to s2.5 pounds
 "A tire which. according to standard air gauge, carries 75 pounds at 20.000 feet would, according to the same gauge, register 70h pounds at 1900 feet and STA pounds at sea level.
 This difference Is due to differ ence in weight of the atmosphere at different attitudes. As indicated the weight or pressure of the atmos- phere falls from 15 pounds per square inch at sea level to 12 pounds at 1900 feet and 7.5 pounds at 10000 feet.
 Since the change in gauge reading or tire imitation at 7,200 feet, about the highest altitude likely to be reached by an autom obile. is only three pounds, 1t would not be good practice to >recommend any change of imitation pressure for tires pass ing from the lower to the higher level. or vice versa"
