BEST MOTOR CARS AMERICAN MADE
 SAYS.YOlJNGFORD
Detroit Manufacturer Favors Domestic Machines Over
 Imported Models
BY EDsEI. FORD

Preaident of the Lincoln Motor compaay. : Division of the Ford Mster O0mpazy
 While for many years the average American car owner has looked up to the foreign built automobile as being and automobile production in the world, the United States is now rec ognized as being the home of finer automobile creations than any other country may point to-.
 1s The Lincoln car is a typical ex- ample of this fact. 1t is the policy ,of this company to build the finest car that the tremendous resources of the Ford Motor seompany will allow This means that the finest of mate ; rials and engineering talent will go Into the making of the Lincoln, and this fact is being recognized abroad, as well as in this country. X
 European manufacturers and engi- neers are beginning ito come to America to get patent rights and body designs for their cars. Hardly a week passes but what the Lincoln factories in Detroit are visited by some of the leading foreign engineers Practically every one of these visitors
 
 Lincoln is built and many express amazement. at the fine manufacturing limits which it is possible to obtain in machine work.
 The market in the United States for foreign built cars is slowly pass ing. Today the vast ma ajority of the Americans are forsaking the Euro pean cars and turning to home made products. Patriotism alone is not re- sponsible for this, as when a man buys for value, and the business man has been convinced that such value is built into the Lincoln.
 One of the primary reasons why the European, manufacturer can not. compete with the American manufac- turer is that the field abroad for sales of higher priced cars is distinctly limited. They can not afford to em- ploy thousands of workmen and pro- duce thousands of cars per year. They have not market for this number and as result 8 great deal of the work is done by hand. American demand for large numbers of cars has taught ts how to make better cars by ma chinery than Europe can turn out by hand.
 In the same way styles in -Arheri- can coach work are far superior to those of foreign made cars. It is pos sible to compare foreign built and American products in motor car values and it can easily be seen that they are behind this country in styles.
 All these factors combine to give value in the car made on this side of the Atlantic, at a lower price. It is true that these are many excellent foreign built automobiles, but com cost with such a product as the Lin coin, will show any one how far supe- rior American automobile nanufae- turers have become. ii

snow and mud that would stall a car equipped with with high pressure tires.
 At ordinary speeds. and higher, they steer just as ordinary tires do. In gravel, sand and mud they make steering easier because they go over in stead of blowing through.
 They keep the car from being de flected when it hits obstacles such as ruts and ridges from which high-pres- sure tires have q tendency to rebound and send the car off at m angle

SPEEDS TP THE JOB

Don't accuse the repairer of gouging if he charges as much time to remove your fender as it would require to at- tach four new ones to a new car. Fen der bolts are a real problem when they have become rusted. Thus, if you want to save money squirt some kerosene over the bolts several times before talk ing the car to the shop. Whether you do the job of removing the. fender yourself. or turn it over to a repairer, the prologue to the work will greatly simplify matters.

TOO MUCH OIL

Too much oil in car will cause the engine to smoke: it scots up the plugs, making the engine miss explosions. It accumulates in the head of the cyl finders, causes preignition and knock ing; it makes the valves leak and lose. compression and power, and makes the engine overheat, which causes q fur ther loss of power.

PAINT ON NEW CARS

Remember that the rapid production of ears and their equally brisk sale means that the paint on your new car is newer than it used to be when cars fingered in the hands of the dealer for months. It therefore needs more cold water to set the varnish and,, in general, a little more pampering for tho. first few weeks. .....-a..'-. Z
