TO CARRY OUT
BUILDING PLAN
Practical Completion of Main
Program Brings All Vital
Processes Under Control

Practical completion of its main
building program by the Hupp Motor
Car corporation marks the final stage
In a plan conceived three years ago
to bring under its own control every
vital process in building Hupmobiles.
Tho Importance OF this control was
emphasized in a statement made by
Charles d. Hastings, president and
general manager of the corporation,
yesterday. 1t reads:
To-day. in our own plants. our own
motor. transmission. axles and all
other essential parts are built to our
W specifications, for the exclusive
use of this corporation.
mo compromise of good designing
or fine manufacture is ever forced
upon our engineers. They are en-
tirely free from the limitations they
might meet If they were dependent
for some vital parts on outside manu-
featuring sources.
THE Hupmobile has the perform.
ance. economy, endurance n long
life that it has because there is per.
feet working harmony among its
units. Their is this harmony because
the proper relation of every part to
all others has been worked put by us
and is carried out under our own
manufacturing supervision. :
"Our engine. for instance, is de-
signed and manufactured to work
with greatest efficiency and economy
with our own transmission and axles.
Each Of these units likewise are de.
signed and built under our own SUI
pervision to supplement and even in
crease the economy and efficiency of
the engine.
"If the Hupmobile is an unusually
good car. it is because this manufac-
turing policy holds that the best
craftsmanship must be practiced at
all times"
Though tho Hupmobile sells in the
medium priced field. the inspections
1t is compelled to undergo before its
final approval r among tho most
sever in the entire industry.
Hupp sales for 1923 vii be from
two to three times those of 1920,
when the program was decided upon.
1t is said.
The corporations large plants in
Detroit ard Jackson. Mich., and
Racine. Wis. now give 1t a total man
u%facturing space of 2,s50.000 square
feet. Hupp is one of the ten largest
concerns in the industry. both in
number of cars built and sold in sales

Personal observations were made

TOOK l YEARS

MOTOR PERFECT
Engineers Spent Five Years
Building It and Two More
Perfecting It Thereafter

: Il took bort engineers five years to
build the bort Six motor and two
years mort to perfect It after It was
built. .
These engineers spent practically
one year travelling around the coun-
try testing other motors in factories
and on the road, before an actual at
tempt was made to design a motor.
Every six cylinder motor on the mar
ket was carefully studied and its

high standards Of performance net
for It.
Chief of all the important improve
ments that the motorist finds IN the
bort Six. and one which bort en-
gineers labored over long and studi-
ously. is the fabrication system. This
system as finally worked out can be
truly described as full force feed. An
added advantage of very great impor-
tance is a device which regulates the
flow Of oil to meet the need for lubri-
cation as the need varies in accord
ance with the engine load. This de-

AT each stopping point OF the trip

as safety permitted says r. N. Van
SAINT. local dealer in Durant and Star

Yesterdays limits of ~transporta-

Dental party to have made few calls
during an afternoons visit to a city,
but today the motor car enables the

America, and post the citizens on ad-

every bearing in the motor will ride

chatter in the overhead valve

decreasing friction in every load

temperature throughout the various
parts; and insures long life to every
vital part of the motor.
In order to eliminate vibration, all
~rectprocatfng parts of the bort Six
motor have been made lighter in
weight For instance. there are hol-
low tappets: hollow push rods and
hollow wrist pins. The ran shaft
has been balanced both statically and
Dramatically SO that every bit of
vibration. due to heavy spots. has
been eliminated. Silcrome steel, a
metal which does not Yield readily

bort engineers instead Of ordinary

Within a period of a few months

Ed Weaver of the Doud-weaver
Motor company.

the bringing out of the Jewett Special

popularity as an illustration of the
trend toward fully equipped motor
cars.
According to reports I have re-

BY L. A. FLEMING.

There was decided renewal of
activity in Washington Railway and
Electric shares.
The action of the United States
Supreme Court refusing jurisdiction
in the Pepco case was a decided tonic
to the entire market in general and to
Railway common particularly.
No one knows just what the outcome
of the situation will be as now ex-
istent, whether a new valuation will
have to be made, or whether there
will be compromise action agreed
upon between the Public Utilities
Commission and the Potomac Elec-
trio Light and Power Company.

A Novel Move.
The Washington Loan and Trust
Company is about to inaugurate a novel
movement, in broadcasting foreign
exchange rates from Woodward 6.
Lothrop's establishment every week
day morning at 10 o'clock.
BY this method the trust company
hopes to avoid the troubles it now
has in distributing it's quotations to
its customers.
1t would seem as if the broadcaster
might have some trouble with the
fractions. especially in dealing with
values of marks and rubles.
Made in Error.
The New York Times this morning
announces an issue of S4,000,000 bonds
by the Potomac Electric Power Com
pany, to be sold through the National
City Bank, the proceeds to be used
in refunding a July maturity.
There is no question but what the
Potomac Electric Company will do
financing in July, as it has maturing
obligations but its last f1otation was
handled in good shape by local in
vestment house and in all probability
local investors will again be given a
chance to purchase through local
houses.
The Potomac Electric Company no.
titled the stock exchange yesterday
that it had Cancelled $4,000 of per
cent refunding and Improvement
bonds.
This fact and the Pepco decision
made the 7 per cent bonds much
firmer.
The company will issue future
financing under the mortgage that
secures the is, but will market them
at price that will be more favorable
to the corporation.
