Two Car Idea.
The public is being sold on the idea
of two cars to a family" but ex-
ceSslVe living costs prevent this from
being an effective means of absorb
ing the enormous increase in produc-
tion. Export conditions are improv-
ing. but will hardly offer more than
within the next few years. And re.
| placement sales should only increase
normally, owing to improvements in
cars and increased service facilities
which make for longer car life
Here, then, is the automobile indus

and financing it's operations-far
beyond visible demand. Why should
It not seek new policy in its mer-
| Ghandising as an outlet for this pro-
duction? And select a plan which has

Apparently the car manufacturers
are forging ahead with production in
the belief that when production
reaches the danger point they will
simply introduce some radically new
engineering principles and arouse In
the car-buying public a desire to own
/ something new and better
10 be specific: Manufa cturers now
are seriously debating the adoption
of four-wheel brakes, a revolutionary
move in deceleration which has be-
come popular In France and England,
Where production has ALWAYS been
considered secondary to engineering
design. At the time of this writing
there are seven American makes of
ferlng this braking arrangement. a
dact Which presages the creation of
final analysis, a new market.
Mechanical Changes Few.
There were no new mechanical
changes Of any consequence in the
1923 model. due to the fact that there
is still great primary demand for
cars to be met, and 1t is to the in
terests of the industry to hold of
on lts next merchandising move as
long as possible.
Just at this moment the entire au-
tomobile industry is on the verge OF
a landslide toward four-wheel brakes.
This is revolutionary step for the
reason that 1t would be just as unsafe
to have two sets Of road rules.
Either all cars must be able to stop
quickly or all unable to; there can be
no halfway point or there will be
an alarming increase in the num-
ber of rear-end collisions. And the
matter is more or less settled when it
is recalled that more effective stop
ping Is a requirement Of the times.
The situation is unique in that the
changing of styles in cars is fire.

invariably means that the manufac-

In the state Of Virginia. where
there is a law which REQUIRES auto
mobiles to stop before crossing the
railroad tracks. the checks show that
the law was disregarded in a great
many instances.
In other states that require buses
carrying passengers to stop before
crossing the railroad tracks the Law
was also disregarded.
Excessive speed was the most con-
mon form of carelessness noted. In
a number of instances the drivers
made no attempt whatever to reduce
speed on approaching the crossing
and occasionally cars were raced
In one instance the driver nearly
ran down a pedestrian and would
not stop while the gates were being

apparently being satisfied that the
car is what they want, having studied

the firm back of it.
The demonstrations nowadays are
chiefly in the cars to be traded in,
for here the human equation figures.
The dealer cannot rely upon the
make, for the best Of cars go wrong
without care and attention. or
course, mans personal habits are
largely reflected in his car, but a
demonstration ride is the only way
to determine the exact condition of
the machine.
The tables have turned in motor
dom and now It is the car owner who
does the demonstrating, who makes
the extravagant claims and who
worries if the car doesn't do its best"

facilities for producing them) a mil

used car market had to be considered.
which is not a matter to be reckoned
with in the clothing market.
Merchandising of typewriters,
monographs, automobiles, player-pi-
amos and the like involves considera-
ton of the resale value. There must,
therefore. be an even balance between
the stimulation of desire for new
models and the resale conditions.
The automobile industry can easily
keep sales upon the heels of greater
production by adopting the collar
idea in developing new market from
an old one. but 1t must time this crea-
tion OF new desire in such a way as
not to 1eopardize its position in the
estimation Of the public.

America will be an interesting study

with the newer improvements. but the
cost Is sometimes prohibitive and the
public invariably wants the real thing
or nothing at all, fact which Is
demonstrated in car buying. Most
motorists would rather put more money
into a ne wear than spend considerably
less adding new features to an old car.
The merchandising problem in the au-
tomobile industry. therefore, Is going to
be handled somewhat automatically by
creating periodic demands for cars of
radically different construction.
Cost Found High.
When the nation is generously sup
piled with cars the manufacturer will
be in a position to replace all cars
which wear out in normal use and to
supply cars embodying the newer fea-
lures. His problem will be to regulate

Just enough to absorb his larger pro-
duction without upsetting the used car

his old car. the car buyer finds the cost

Times change in automobile circles

BY WILLIAM ULLMAN.

With the public buying more and
more automobiles it may seem super
fiuous to speak Of creating a new de-
mand for cars. Yet that is precisely
what the automobile industry is doing
and with the aid of an advertising
fundamental.
The present .wane Of buying is
neither the result of high wages nor
the degree of perfection of the auto
mobile itself, though these have their
influence.
realization on the part of the average
person that the advantages of car
ownership are too desirable to fore
go. But with this demand bringing
production UP to a point exceeding
all previous records the question is,
What next?" Upon this hinges an
important story on the future domes-
tic market of the automobile, and an
interesting merchandising plan in
which engineering genius and adver-
tising combine.
Obviously there must be limit on
the number of cars which can oper-
ate at one time. Some have estimated
this at fifteen million, some a t twenty,
others-more optimistic-at thirty.
But there is more important point:
the limit on the possible number of
cars in service will have no effect on
the number of cars produced and sold.
This point is about to be clearly
demonstrated through an important
change which lies just ahead on the
motor industry's brilliant highway Of
achievement.
Consider nm Analogy.
To understand 1t one must consider
Tn, ha lar- in frx-
the "saturation point" has long been
reached. yet production continues at
a high rate and any new manufac-
turer could profitably enter the field
without disturbing the position of
the pioneers. Every male consumer
has a generous assortment Of collars,
yet new collars are manufactured
and he buys them. This buying. fur
thermore, is not necessarily to re-
place those worn out, but primarily
to keep up with the styles.
The collar manufacturer announces
r. new creation, charms the country
with alluring copy of the article in
operation on the neck of the model
man-and the consumer buys. The
degree of change in styles depends
largely upon the exigencies of the
trade, the readiness of the public to
accept change as progress, and the
effectiveness of the media of adver
tising.
In the autOmOblle market the man.
ufacturer has at his disposal the
same means of keeping sales in line
with production. but he has been so
preoccupied with the task of supply
ing every potential owner with a first
car and filling the demand for normal
requirements. that he has had very
little occasion to apply the collar idea
seriously.
He is saving 1t for the next lull in
sales, which, as many experts OBJ
serve, should logically come to pass
early in 1924. The announcement of
. few important motor car makers
of new models with distinctly radical

During the summer inspectors of
the Pennsylvania Railroad system
checked 242,142 automobile drivers at
selected highway crossings in each of

railroad operates to determine the
extent and character Of carelessness
displayed in driving motor cars over
railroad tracks.
The total number of cars checked
and the number and percentage of
careless drivers observed are shown

SPRINGS RETURN POWER.

1t is an interesting fact that valve
springs return to an engine all the
power which the engine expends in
COMPRISING them. The camshaft has
to lift each valve and compress a
spring at the same time, but when
the job is over the spring in expand
ing and pushing down the valve and
its tappet actually exerts a force eI-
erted by the engine in COMPRISING
the spring.

KEEP TO THE RIGHT.

The annoyance-and danger-of
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, except
when overtaking 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 a chance to sand
wich in between your car and the
,urb.
