AUTO RADIATOR emblem
SUBJECT Of TAX FIGHT
N. N. A. Opposes Ruling That It
Is Taxable by Treasury
Department.

Is radiator emblem on an auto
mobile properly an accessory and tax
able as such under the internal reve-
nue. act?
The sales. tax regulations of the
Treasury Department say it is and
fixes the tax at per cent. The Ma
tional Motorists Association contends
that it is not. and has asked in the
name Of afi1liated clubs throughout
the country that the tax be elimi-
mated. Under the sales tax section Of
the law regulations must be drawn
for tho purpose of interpreting the
revenue act and deciding what is or
is not taxable. This section includes
the term accessories" and the regu-
torlations as drawn hold that a radia-

CONSTANT DANGERS
IN WINTER DRIVING
Care of Brakes vitaI-Wind-
shield Wiper and Chains
Necessary.

Snow. sket, ice. slush and mud pre-
sent a constant danger to the motor
list during the winter. Extreme care
should be taken when operating in
this kind Of weather to see that minor
points are observed or bad collision
will result, says r. X. Jack, chief en-
gineer, Olds motor works.
The careful owner will first look to
his brakes and see that they are ad.
tusted by an expert so that they will
not grab unevenly.
The worst thing that could happen
to an owner is probably the driving
Of a car during the months when the
streets, are icy with improperly ad-
justed brakes.
Peril of SkiddinE.
Brakes in this condition mean that
when they are applied suddenly. or
even slowly but firmly, one wheel will
be slowed down more than the other,
and the result Is a positive side slip
or skid. which may end in the death
of some one. the w'recking of car or
injury to another machine passing
or parked at this spot.
The front tires should also be In
spected. and care should be taken to
see that they have tread on them,
as these rubber grooves give certain
steering.
Chains should be used on the rear
wheels at all times when the streets
are wet or the going "nasty."
Chains ON All Wheels Preferred.
1t is preferable to use chains on all
four wheels. but when 1t is found that
only two chains are available do not
under any pretext, or on the advice OF
any friend. put one on front wheel
and another on the opposite side. rear
OF the rear tire on the side where
there is no chain, and will not in the
least prevent skidding in the same
degree that chains on the rear will.
Such a course also tends to wear the
mechanism Of the dinerential. as one
wheel is spinning free in the ice and
snow and the other side is more or
less stationary. due to the chain.
Improper vision il also the source OF
disastrous accidents. A windshield
wiper to clear off ice and snow within
a certain range in front OF the driver
is advisable. They are inexpensive
and can be bought at any accessory
store at a small cost.
Windshield Coating Precautions.
Another excellent precaution to take
is the coating of the Windshield to
prevent sleet and snow sticking and
obscuring the view Of the driver.
A solution of one ounce of water,
two ounces of glycerin. one-eighth h
ounce Of salt. if rubbed on the wind
shield in an up-and down manner.
will prevent this sticking of snow
and ice. 1t should be renewed from
time to time.

COMPLETE VEHICLE" IS AUTO
MAKERS AIM AT 1928 SHOW
Many New Features Designed for Comfort
Of Motorists-Closed Cars Are
Winning Favor.

At the 1928 automobile shows in
New York and Chicago the dominant
tendency in car and truck construc-
ton will probably be the emphasis
on. '"the complete vehicle"
This forecast is based on the opin-
ions Of the leading parts and acces-
contributing to a symposium con-
Quoted by the Motor and Accessory
Manufacturers Association.
Other features which will probably
be stressed. according to advance in
dtcations, are:
Continued swing toward greater
production of light sizes.
Preponderance OF closed cars.
Emphasis on sport models.
Further emphasis on lightweight
construction.
Tendency to lower the cars, thus
giving a racy appearance.
Effort in direction Of simplifica ton
Of design.
Greater engine efficiency.
Outranking all of these tendencies
however. will be the trend toward
making motor cars genuinely COM
plete and ready for use in every de-
tail. in order to enhance the comfort
ease and economy"of operation.
Reduces Costs.
More and moro appointments and
devices, which have in the past been
regarded as extras or accessories. are
being adopted as standard equipment
by vehicle manufacturers.
This does not mean the widespread
standard installation of all access
sories, but it does indicate that items
that are indubitably useful and eco
nomical are being added in increas-
ing numbers to the original equip
ment list.
This tendency makes possible a re-
duction in manufacturing cost on
such units and accessories, cuts down
distributing expenses. increases oper-
ating efficiency and in the long run
aids the industry and tho public.
Interpreting this development in
the automotive industry. NJ. l.. Hem
inway. general manager OF the Motor
and Accessory Manufacturers Asso-
citation, says:
Instead OF bringing about indis-
criminate use Of accessories this
trend will put the car equipment
manufacturers to the test. Only those
accessories that are really useful and
sound will meet the rigid require
ments imposed by the engineers and
executives Of the vehicle builders. who
in turn must be open-minded and con-
stantly responsive to the dictates and
needs Of public desiring moro COM
plete. more efficient and more eco
nomical vehicles"
Special progress will be evidenced

Keep to the Right.

The annoyance-and daEG Ger-of
having a car pass you on the right
without giving a warning can best be
avoided by always driving as close as
possible to the curb, eXcep. when
overtakinS another car.
If the return to the curb is made as
soon as advisable after overtaking
the other car there is no likelihood
of anything getting chance to sand
wich in between your car and the
curb.
In many places it is a provision of
the law that cars shall drive as close
as possible to the right-hand side of
the street. The idea Of this is not
only to give faster-moving drivers a
chance to pass, but to prevent them
from passing on the illegal side of
cars ahead Of them.

Useless and Costly.

Frequently when driving along the

the other fellows lights are suff1cient-
ly strong to make the use Of your
headlights superfuous. Almost any
night ono can see dozens of motorists
crawling along behind other cars with
their headlights wasted in the useless
work Of illuminating the rear Of the
cars ahead. When traffic is moving
slowly the generator is not giving its
full output. and the result is that the
battery suffers. So, II George" wants

Going Through Mud.
