'ALEMITE BUYS
 ERK SYSTEM
Better Service Possible Through Consolidation
 Says AydalOtt

The Bassick Alemite corporation has purchased the Allyne-Zerk company of Cleveland, according to MT. Aydelott, head of the Alemite Lubricator com pany of this city.
 'This consolidation" said MT. Ayde- lott, lis welcome news to us as dis tributors of Alemite products because it gives us an opportunity to service the fabrication needs of car owners of this community to better advantage than ever before.
 'The Alemite high pressure lubricat- ing system, of which we are the sole distributors in this territory, is made by the Bassick Manufacturing com pany, which is also owned by the Bas- sick-Alemite corporation. The Allyne- Zerk lubricating s.btem, which is also standard -lubricating equipment of a number of different makes of cars, until now has been sold and serviced by an entirely different distributing organiza
 tion. As a result of the present con solidation, however. the Alemite Lubri- eating company, in addition to acting as distributors of Alemite products, now becomes the exclusive distributor

HEADLIGHTS ARE
 ADJUSTED FREE
Cruse-CrawfOrd Is Open Evenings For This
 Service

The Cruse-Crawford Manufacturing company will institute very helpful service for owners of Willys-Knight, Overland and Studebaker ears this this week. For the benefit of such owners it has been arranged for a rep resentative oG General Electric com pany to superintend the focusing and adjusting of headlights on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights of this week. Owing to the fact that it is impractical to adjust headlights during the daylight hours. W. R. Mckinney has arranged that owners may have this done on the nights mentioned without charge. MT. Mckinney says that practically every headlight in Bir- mingham is out of focus or adjustment and that this service will surely be ac- ceptable.
 This free service will be given at the repair department of Cruse-C Crawford company at Avenue B and 22nd street and all that is necessary is for owners of Studebakers, Overland or Willys- Knight cars to drive there between [ and 10 o'clock on the nights mentioned and have headlights perfectly focused and adjusted,

of Allyne-Zerk products throughout the United States"
 The Bassick Alemite corporation, Mfr Aydelott pointed out, is a holding com pany which controls, in addition to these two concerns that manufacture practically all of the chassis lubri- eating equipment in use on motor ears, the Bassick company, Bridgeport, Conn.,. the Universal Caster and Fom- dry company, Newark, N. J.; the M B. Schenk company, Meriden, Conn; E. S. Evans and company, Detroit; the Burns and Bassick company, Bridge port, Conn.,, and the G. & G. Vacuum Tank company, Bridgeport
 Under the terms of the holding com pany's recent purchase, the Alyne-Zerk company will continue to manufacture and market its products under the same management and policies as heretofore, and, insofar as sales to car manufac- turers are concerned, in direct eompe- tition with the Bassick ManufacturinE company that makes and markets the Alemite high pressure lubricating sys- tenn.
 The only difference of importanee will come in the method of distribution to the retail trade, the same orgHniEa- tion of which Mir. Aydelott of this city is head, being assigned to act as dis tributors of the products of both manu- lecturers.

TEACH CHILD CARE

TEACH CHILD CARE
 Strict enforcement of highway and traffic laws is most important in pre- venting accidents.
 Uniformity of traffic regulations is highly desirable.
 Only one of 65 child accidents in Connecticut last year could be laid en- tirely on the automobile driver The child must be taught to be careful
 Safety education is needed in the small towns as well as in the cities-
 Elimination of grade crossings which is being advocated today is a step in the right direction.
 Many cities which are struggling with traffic problems today simply haven't large enough police force to cope with their problems.
 Whether one lives in the country or the city it always pays to be careful
 Play Space Needed
 With the approach of summer com- munities must give more thought to the question of providing adequate play room for the children. Children have a right to play and as the weather gets bette: there will be the increased ten dency to play in the streets. Certain streets should be reserved for children and barred to vehicles if playgrounds are not available.
 Now is the time to study your local playgrounds problem. Doing that may mean the saving of the lives of chil- dren.
 Motorists must remember that chil- dren have the minds of children and ex- traordinary precaution must be taken in the residential areas where children may be playing. A child with a ball may be in on the sidewalk one moment and in the street the next. Always be careful.

CAR IS TALKED ABOUT
 = ?. Policy Is To Build Best Car That Is
 Possible

'How is your car runningg is al most as universal a greeting as How are you todayT' And to what inter esting discussions it leads!
 No one thing, perhaps, is so generally talked about as the modern motor car. It is the accepted topic of conversation everywhere and it is a subject upon which most people feel that they are qualified to talk, mainly because of their own experiences.
 They have watched the motor car develop. They have seen it rise from the plaything of the rich man to the exalted position of everyman's servant They have seen it change from a lux ury to necessity in this era of bnss- ness and social life. Those who do not own a motor car hope to some day and they keep up-to-date by studying the current trend of design and construe- tion.
 Today one finds that the motor car, as a means of personal transportation, has entered into the lives of most men,
 Season after season Buick has sold more cars than could be manufactured Because Buick has known in advance what motorists would prefer in a car, owners of all types have seen in tke va rious Buick models the car of their choice. Quite positive evidence of thiE is shown by the fact that Buick has been given for six consecutive years the first choice of, display space at the National Automobile shows, which is an honor bestowed upon the manufacturer with the largest volume of business each year." said Frank Pape.
 Long ago we were convinced of the wisdom of this policy. It has been our guiding star ever since. In effect the policy is just this:
 Build the best car that we cam.
 In it combine beauty and utility
 in the most practical measure
 Build it to serve efficiently and tS
 endure Develop it along th0se
 lines that public interest and
 Buick experience deem advisable.
 Never overlook the fact that the
 future is the most important c0R-
 sideratiOn and that future cenff-
 dence in Buick depends upon pres-
 ent perf0rmance.'
 That policy has made Buick a car that people like to talk about Buick performance, dependability, economy. beauty and Buick values are subjects of frequent discussioD everywhere
 For one thing, Buick has been con sistent At the very beginning, for in stance, we adopted the Valve-in-Head principle. of motor design. We were certain that the engineering principles involved were correct. From that time one Buick engineers have concentrated their effort, research, study and experi- ments on the development of the Buick vale-in-head motor. Consequent1y, whenever tlfe name of Buick is men tioned, ''vaIe-in-head" is connected with it. They have seen it grow from a one-cylinder horizontal motor into the powerful smooth six-cylinder motor of today, completely self-luricating and capable of developing 60 to 70 miles an hour."

 HERE TO STAY
HudsOn-Essex Man Says Fundamental COndi-
 tiOns Sound

'fIn a country where the wealth is growing twelve times as fast as the population. you cant keep prosperity down. That is America
 This is the way Harry c. Moock of Detroit, sales manager for the Hudson and Essex Motor Car company, char acterizes business conditions in Amer ica.
 Fundamentally. conditions are sound" Mir. Moock said. There may be a little hesitation, but fundamentally conditions are good. It's the one thing that impresses me wherever I go, over the entire country.
 Buyers Are Conservative
 ~The shelves of the merchants aren't loaded up with dead stock. The mer- chants are buying conservatively and the people are buying conservatively. We will not be faced with the condi- tion of few years ago.
 $Ln my line, automobiles, conditions are excellent. The whole industry is pushing ahead. Our own cars are sell ing as fast as we can get them out. The people are getting their moneys worth. getting more for a dollar than ever be- fore. Cars are better mechanically, but the public has shown no favor to- ward complications.
 Mir. Moock declared the death knell of the open car has been sounded as far as the average man is concerned. Closed cars are the automobile of today and the future, he said pointing out their fast-growing popularity.
 Open Car Now Luxury
 NThe time when the closed car was the luxury and the open car a neces- sity has passed,Y he said. Now the open car is the luxury and the closed car the necessity. The man who can afford only one car will own an en- closed one.
 ''The car of the future is the closed car. This has already foreshadowed in the late models. Our own Essex six built on these principles has been phenomenal success and we are count ing on its still greater growth. The coming cars too will be hung low more graceful than the machines of the past. That comes with improvements on our roads. Once we needed big wheels and high-hung bodies. With bet ter roads the cars are going down. Peo- pie want easy riding in their cars greater stability and better balance"

WHEAT PRICES
MAKE GAINS
Weekly Review Shows Some
Increases Made

Minneapolis, Mimi, May 2G.-Mo-
dcrate gains in wheat prices were
made at most of the markets during
the week ending May cath, states the
United States Department of Agri-
culture in It's weekly grain market
review Corn markets were also firm
and higher, but there was AN indi-
cation of heavier movement to the
Central Western markets. Moderate
strength was also displayed in the
market for other grains, and slight
price gains were reported from most
Of the markets.
A continued good export demand,
principally for Winnipeg, together
with a fairly active milling demand
and increasing reports Of crop deter
ioration because of dry weather IN
the Southwest, were the principal
STRENGTHENING factors in the Wheat
market No changes of Importance
were reported in the Worlds crop
situation, but estimates from import
ant commercial sources indicated
that the supply of grain in the prin-
cipal producing countries at the first
of the month was about 4o,5Ou,OoO
bus. larger than at the correspond
ing time last year. The Worlds
supply, however, has decreased about
5O,O0OOO0 bus. since the first OF
April. The World movement con
tinues large and the surplus stocks
are being rapidly consumed. The
large Canadian surplus is being ra-
pidly reduced and the commercial
stocks in the United States are also
decreasing from one to- two million
bushels each week.
While the weather has become
rather dry in Western Kansas and
Nebraska, no serious deterioration
to date has been reported. Prices
for the better milling grades OF
spring wheat advanced l to , cents

declined slightly because OF dul
