NEW CADILLAC. PLANT
CONSOL|DATES WORK
Eorty-nine Acre Factory Re-
{ places II Old
Buildings

One Of the big achievements In
the automotive world was the com.
pletion in 1921 Of the new factory
Of the Cadillac Motor Car Company
in Detroit, generally acknowledged
to be one Of the most efficient
plants In the industry.
Previously the building of the
Cadillac had been carried in seven
ty-seven different buildings, scat
tered about Detroit. The present
plant comprises but seven great
building units, covering more than
forty-nine acres and providing more
than fifty-five acres of floor space.
The new factory is flooded with
daylight and an efficient forced
ventilation system provides con-
slant supply of fresh air. Much or
the machinery was designed ana
built to meet especially the require
ments of Cadillac.
The buildings are in two groups,
one the manufacturing section in
which the parts are prepared, ana
the other the assembly group where
the parts are put together and
where the service and adm1nlstra-
tive divisions are maintained.
In other parts Of the city Cadillac
also has q body plant and an iron,
aluminium and brass foundry,
which together have total or an
additional half million square feet
Of floor space.

By ALEXANDER JOHNSTON,
Editor Of MOTOR.

Lurid stories are current in
motoring circles, retailing the skill
with which automobile thieves can
pick any lock and get away with
any car that he really. wants.
There is some truth in this view of
the theft problem, but much more
imagination. A professional auto
mobile thief. just out OF State
prison, once told the writer that he
and most of his conferees never
bother with locked car. ''Why
should we?" he asked, when just
around the corner we can find an
Their car without sign Of a lock
to bother with"
The fact is that any approved
lock will protect your car against
the ordinary chances OF theft. The
ordinary ignition lock as installed
on the dash of every car is not so
much protection, because car thieves
usually specialize in certain makes
of cars. One gang may go after
Dodges, another prefer Bucks and
so on down the line of the popular
used-car market. For this reason
If you have a Dodge, the gang
that attempt to steal the car will
come equipped with specially de-
vised master keys for opening the
ignition lock on the dash. Thieves
do not consider the dash locks,
fitted by the car manufacturers, as
real deterrents to their nefarious
''art"
Locks which may be installed
in addition to the ignition lock,
are of several kinds, all OF them
being reasonably effective in dis
couraging the operations OF light
fingered gentry.
The steering wheel lock is at
tached to the steering post and in
operation it usually releases the
wheel, so that the driver Is pre-
vented from having any control

Speed Wagon Chassis

Bankers throughout the country
are realizing more and more the
value of armored cars in their
business, and according to George
Stowe, vice president of the REQ
Motor Car Company of New York.
this is of particular interest to the
REQ Company, as the Speed Wagon
chassis is 50 well adapted to this
line Of work. Many of the pioneer
armored bodies are so mounted,
and because Of economy, strength,
speed and endurance OF the. chassis

Automobile Courses at

In the extension division at Co
lumbia University, two automobile
courses have been arranged, for
Wednesday and Friday nights, dur

The course Wednesday evenings
deals with the engineering prin-
ciples of the automobile engine. A
new course in automobile service
management on Friday evenings
has been provided to supplement
the engine course. Preferably
students in this class should have
had machine shop or automobile

over the motion OF the front wheels.
The effect is obvious and the steer.
Ing wheel is useless until the proper
key is turned in the lock.
The transmission lock is an ex-
ceedingly efficient type of thief dis.
courager. 1t prevents the cars be-
ing driven under it's own power,
but it leaves the wheels free, so
that the vehicle can be towed about

sary. This latter leaves a loophole

for the thief who is prepared to
tow the vehicle away.
The ignition lock, not on the
dash, but in the line, Is effective
enough when used in connection
with lock on the hood, to prevent
the would-be thief from getting at
the gap and closing it up.
A great many motor car owners
of an ingenious turn Of mind make

in some obscure location. This
serves its purpose very well, pre-
venting the thief from walking off
with, the car, simply because he
knows that he will have to spend
more time in hunting for the OBJ
struction. Car owners should re-

MORE LIVES SACRIFICED
TO HAY DERRICK MOVING

Boise, Idaho.-During the session
of the legislature last winter a bill
was intoduced designed to protect
those who found it necessary to move
hay derricks under high power
electric lines.
1t was born of an ugly record of
fatalities, and provided that when a
derrick was to be moved, "a hours
notice be given the power company,
which would have an experienced
man at hand, without expense to the
derrick owner, to safeguard the
movers.
The bill was defeated, on the
ground that it was not practical to
give "a hours notice.
Three boys were killed at Wendell
the other day while moving a der
rick under high power line. They
probably did not realize the danger.
The "a hour notice, it is pointed out,
would have saved them to the citi-
zenship of the state if the law had
been enacted
