FALL SEES BRIGHT
FUTURE FOR RUSSIA
Former Secretary Surprised on
Visit by Governments Ex-
perimentations.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. August 11.--Optimism
as to the future in Russia was ex-
pressed by A. b. sFall, returning on
the steamship Berengaria from a trip
to Europe. which included visits to
Russian cities. Mr.. Fall, former SEN
ator and former Secretary of the In
terror in the Harding cabinet, said
Russia is in better financial condi-
tfon than many of the adjoining
countries.
What amazed me about Russia"
said Mr.. Fall. lis that the present
government is not afraid to expert
ment. If a thing does not work they
say: Well, that is perhaps a mis-
take. Then they try out something
else. and always they follow out what
they think the people want"
Dir. Fall said he was out of politics
for good and would devote all his
time to his ranch at Three Rivers.

Referring to immigration, Mr.. Fail
said: IF anything I hope we. shall
even build up greater restrictions
against undesirables from Europe
There are countries on the other side.
particularly Russia. who would send
us only her unfit. We want good peo-
pie and the census of 1890 would per-
haps give us the most desirable OF

means be done upon the European

SEEKING NEW IDEAS,

DEPART FOR EUROPE
General Motors Executives
to Visit Leading Mo-
tor Centers.

As an evidence of the keen pursuit
which leaders of the automobile indus
try give the development OF design in
body and chassis engineering, the de-
parture for Europe of party of Gen.
eral Motors executives and engineers
is strikingly significant.
Despite the fact that the Buick,
Cadillac and Oakland units of Gen.
eral Motors have recently placed on
the market new models embodying
every forward step that their engi-
necrs had conceived and approved, the
quest for new suggestions, innovations
and improvement did not for u mo-
ment thereafter cease.
Therefore. the steamship Majestic,
when it sailed from New York last
week. carried the following party of
General Motors executive and engi-
neers: President II. ii. Bassett and
Engineer +. A. Bower of Buick Mo-
tor Company. accompanied by Mrs.
Bower: Mr.. Strickland, who is con-
nected with the Cadillac Motor Com

IAN interview just before leaving
for the automobile centers of Europe.)
When you consider that automobile
production in less than twenty years
has multiplied more than a hundred
fold, you realize what tremendous
giant this young industry has grown
to be.
Not many years ago there were
comparatively few automobile manu-
featuring companies and none of them
were important industrial units,
speaking in national sense.
From that modest stage the industry
has shown wonderful growth and 4
few of the concerns have grown to be
mammoth producers of excellent motor
cars at reasonable prices.
In the value of manufacturing prod
ucts in this country, the automobile
stands foremost among the nations
industries. More than a billion dok
lars is invested in 112 factories which
produced last years output of motor
cars, if the companies making tires,
batteries, carburetors and other Access
series were included, there is no doubt
but what the money actually invested
in the allied motor industries would
lead that of any industry in the United
States.
Road Building Aided.
We have all seen the natural growth
in the last few years of automobile
transportation from one community to
another and from suburban towns to
city centers. This has been accom-
plished without rails, poles or set
routes but on the other hand it has
brought about an improvement in
roads that has enhanced the value Of

PERMANENT TOP
IS FEATURE OF
1924 OAKLAND
Demand Met for Closed
Car Comfort in Open
Models.

To meet the demand for closed car
comfort in omen car models, the Oak
land Motor Car Company has made
special provision on the new IVA
models, according TO Eric kunkel OF
the Koehler-Kunkel Motor Company
local Oakland distributors.
because it has become less and less
customary in recent years for owners
10 drive with the top down and be-
cause a permanent top permits the
embodying of many features that make
for more perfect weathcrproof con-
struction," continued Mr.. kunkel.
Oakland has adopted this type on all
open models.
"Fiye bows are used on this top,
which makes it possible to obtain
much better shape; for the top 10
conform closely to the body, and 10
eliminate the top overhansing the body
in the front. As the result OF the
five-bow construction, the top is much
stronger than the regulation folding
ton and is seventeen pounds lighter
than the former Oakland tops.
"But undoubtedly the most note
worthy AMI obvious benefit obtained
from the permanent top construction
has been the remarkably tight fitting
side curtains. The permanent top con-
struction permits the forming OF
ledge along the lower edge OF the top
and against this ledge the curtains
are closed in such a way as to give
weather-tight fit without the use OF
fasteners of any sort.
"The curtains are SUPP orted upon
the doors on double rods that form
This Joint along the ledge of the top
and hold the curtains from wrinkllng
or sagginc. The curtains open and
close with the doors without the but
toning or unbuttoning Of any fasteners.
"Tbe fastening Of the windshield
side rails TO the side Of the body and
the conforming Of the top TO the shape
of the body, making it exactly the
same width as the windshield at the
front further serve TO insure tight
fitting curtains.
"In designing the permanent top
and body details were worked out IN
such way that glass enclosures,
which are supplied as extras at a
yety moderate cost, may be substituted
for the curtains without any change
being made in the body or top. These
can be installed in a very short time
and thus inexpensively give practically
closed chr comfort in cold weather.
Windows in the glass enclosures are
adjustable and the rear panels on tue
roadster and sport roadster may be
swung open for ventilation.
"George II. Hannum, president OF
the Oakland Motor Car Company, ex-
presses the belief that the closed car
OUTPUT will in a short time be larger
than production on the open models
and that when such time comes, the
closed models will cost less than the
open models due to the fact that the
closed models will constitute the gem
eral production and the open models
the occasional production.
ain the meantime. he believes there
are increasing possibilities for the sale
of omen models equipped with snecial-
ly designed curtains or glass panels
CAPABLE of rapid adjustment. which
will give open models closed car COM

MOTOR INDUSTRY BECOMES
YOUNG INDUSTRIAL GIANT
IN LESS THAN 20 YEARS
Production Has Multiplied More Than Hundred Fold
and Growth Shows No Signs of Slackening.
Founded on Sound Basis-Other
Aspects of Industry.

both city and country property as no
other thing could have done.
In the past a great many good bus
mess men have felt that the automo-
bile business afforded tremendous
profits to the manufacturers. Years
ago this was perhaps more or less
true, but ! dare say there is no manu-
featuring business in the United
States that is handled on more con-
sentative lines and on a smaller mar
gin of profit per unit by the big manu-
facturers than that of manufacturing
automobiles. The great values that
are offered by the larger manufactur-
ers today are possible only on ac-
count of the excellence OF design, skill
in manufacture and quantity produc-
ton which reduces overheads with less
indirect expense per car produced.
There is but one position that any
large manufacturer can afford to take
and that is the position of giving 10
his customers the best design, the most
style, the most capable performance
and the greatest value for the dollar
manufacturing. BY so doing. he places
himself in q sound economical position
rs regards competition and produces
the greatest possible amount of good
will among his customers. When all
is said. and done, the buyer is the
man who always holds the whip hand,
as he is free to choose in any mer-
chandise he purchases.
Our Federal Reserve Boards re.
port for August says that industrial
America is assured of continued good
times and with the enviable position
which our great country enjoys in
comparison with all other countries of
the world. it will. without question
continue to be the largest producer OF
automobiles in the world for all time

EXPLAINS WHY IT
IS NECESSARY TO
CHANGE OIL OFTEN
After So Long 1t Is Rem
dered Unfit, Mcgee
Asserts.

ITO begin WITH" says r. E. Mcgee,
vice president of the Paramount Pc
troleum Products Company, there are
far too many car owners who regard
motor oil as a necessary evil. Lubri-
eating oil to them is an item of sec
ondary Importance; almost an item
of needless expense.
"This one thing is certain: When
ever internal combustion engines are
used in automobiles, trucks, airplsnes
or tractors their performance and du-
rability depends more upon their lu-
brication than any other single item
of maintenance.
"Lubricating oil never really wears
out, it is rendered unfit through high
temperatures. dirt sucked in through
the breather pipe and air intake, and
contamination of the crankcase fuel
with the partially unburned gasoline
vapor which leaks past the piston
rings.
"At the point of explosion" con-
tinRcs Mr.. Mcgee, I'VE find our mo-
tor oil subjected to temperature of
ssme 5000 degrees: We find it again
subjected to temperature of 400
degrees ms it is splashed TO our cylin-
der walls and once again we find it
subjected TO n temperature of 500 de.
grees as it is splashed to the bases
of the pistons.
$50 with these known facts it does
not require a stretch of the imagina'
ton to determine why il is necessary
to change the oil in crankcase a.
least once every 600 to 500 miles.
"As for the practice of continually
adding oil without draining the crank.
case, figure it for yourself-half n gal
lon of clean oil added to half gal
lon of dirty, WORKOUT oil can make
nothing other than a gallon of dirty
oil.
"And remember there is happy
medium in the matter. of oil. Your
car will not run without any at all
and an excess quantity in the crank
case has a tendency to work through
the combustion chamber. producing
carbon and fouling the plugs. Keep
your crankcase filled to the proper
level at all times.
MANY motorists have discovered
that a paraffine base oil will give
longer service because of its inherent
heat resisting qualities. However. that
is n matter for you to decide. Try q
paraffine base oil and judge for your
self"

In October, 1908, exactly twenty
years ago this month, the first auto
mobile was driven from coast to coast.
This feat was heralded as n great
achievement and literally columns
were literally written about it.
This great underiak;ng-and it was
g:eat when one considers lie condi-
tons that existed at the time proved
to the country that the automobile
was a practical vehicle of transpor-
tation and marked the real beginning
of the growth of the automobile indus
