NINE OUT OF EVERY TEN
 HUDSON'S ENCLOSED TYPE Time To Come When Open Car Will Be In Minority, Says Pryor

coach for year more chesply than you can an open one.
 Just look those ads over They tell the story. Then if you're a sure- fire open car enthusiast. and wall have no other. why go to it. But re- member you're buying a speciality and are naturally paying a speciality price.
 While the closed car show is on, I hope the attention of all automo- bile men will be centered on the question of how closed cars can be made more popular. I hope, too, that the one great underlying idea will not be forgotten. That Idea IS just one thing, price, and until the industry generally meets that Issue as Hudson Essex has met it, it will still take a good deal of high class salesmanship to sell a volume Of closed cars"

 '. In 1922 the automobile was re- sponsible for 67 per cent of all deaths caused by vehicles, more than four times the number caused by railroads and seven tipes the deaths due to street railways.
 S. Whether or not this death rate will continue to increase depends largely upon the efforts put forth by individual drivers to prevent auto mobile accidents.

Aero ACCIDENT STATISTlCS (Prepared by the National Safety
 

(Prepared by the National Safety
 COunciD
 1. In the United States, in 1922, there were approximately S0,000 per sons accidentally killed. Of this number, only 22,000 were killed in industry. The remainder (5S,000) were killed on the streets and in the homes. Over 14.000 persons were killed as the result of automobile ac- cidents. This is the largest number that can be attributed to any one cause.E
 2. It can truly be said that the au- tomobile is the most deadly peace time machine. While in the indus tries, on the railroads and electric railways, and in the mines, through organized safety, the hazards are coming under control and accidental deaths are being reduced, the fatali- ties from automobile accidents are mounting by leaps and bounds.

In the degree of its immunity from carbon formation, the New Peerless Eight is not excelled by any American motor car, regardless of price.
 The fact is that Peerless goes for months, and for thousands of miles, beyond the point where carbon ordinarily becomes a detriment to fine performance.

CHARITY BOARDON
 TOP IN C0UNCILR0W
Wins Important Point on Dispute
 Over Building Contract i

The element in the common council which has opposed the award of con- tracts for town home annex to any one other than the lowest bidder and which has twice rejected recommen- dations of the charity board that the C. l.. D. Co. of this city be given the work. suffered a severe setback last night when, after a tie vote had re- suited on the question of authorizing the board to make such award as it sees fit, Mayor A. M. Paonessa broke the tie in favor of the motion.
 This puts the question of who shall build the town home annex squarey before the charity board There is little question that the c. l.. D. Go. will get the contract, since the board unanimously favored that company
 At last nights meeting the board recommended the c. s. Poriss Co. of Hartford, whose bid is s7O0 lower than the c. H. D. Co. Because this resolution carries with it the pay nent of architects fees objected to by republican members, they united with democrats in downing the resolution. The motion as passed provides for the pawn mt of the same fees.
 One section of the. spectators gal lery was occupied by a eivics class from the academic high school. This class is studying Problems of Modern Decocracy," and desired first hand i'm formation on the system of conduct ing municipal corporation business.
