Fewer Trade-Ins Now.

That the automobile trade should
have come out so well in 1924 in view
of the enormous trades dealers were
forced to handle is viewed generally
as a very hopeful sign for the present
wear, for all indications point to 1879
as being a year of proportionaliy
fewer trades.
The reason for this is because at
least a million. owners are expected
to simply junk their present cars and
buy new cars or good used ones out
right without dickering for an allow
ance.
Last year only about $4,000 cars
went into the discard. as compared
with approximately 100000 in 1928.
Obviously in 1924 there was a tend
ency to hold onto the old car and
make it do another year.
The holding process must have been
painful and rather costly for many
owners. all of which is expected to
crystalline this year in a strong de-
mand for new cars, or, where owners
of discarded cars cannot afford brand
new ones, for good used cars. In
either event the entire motor market
will be benefited.

When You Grind Valves.

mind:
Remove nothing except what is
necessary in order to detach the head
of the engine. Gasket leaks around
manifolds are often created needlessly
through loosening too many nuts and
making too much work of a relatively
simple job.
Always use a new gasket for the
cylinder head. There's no economy in
taking a chance on the old one.

Even the Ford is being neglected by
the seasoned thief.
The reason Is not given by the
insurer, but possibly that is because
it is so obvious. The thief, being a
student of market conditions, is
aware of the used car problem, and
figures that If he's going to the bother
of stealing car he might as well take
one that will bring the best price.
Selling stolen Fords has become a
piker's business. Even q $1,000 car
is hardly worth stealing. SO the thief
turns to high grade stuff, which he
can dispose of at the price he has
been accustomed to receive from
cheaper cars.
This is hopeful. It simply means
that there are fewer cars for him to
steal. The used car problem has
done that much good anyway.

but shift quickly. Remember that
when the car is not rolling on the

speeds of the respective meshing

|NEXPERT DRIVERS
(. MENACE ON ROAD
"Use Auto 0ftener," Is Deal
; erS' Advice on Accident
Prevention.

More frequent use of the automobile
will help to reduce the number of traf-
fic accidents. This is the conclusion
of study by the traffic committee of
the Washington Automotive Trade AS
sociation, which points to the fact
that lack of practice in driving, in
touring and in motoring generally is
responsible to a large degree for most
traffic trouble.
Reports to the Hoover conference,
the National Automobile Chamber of
Commerce and other active advocates
of greater safety on streets and high
ways substantiate the point that the
inexperienced driver is big factor in
the large number of accidents. Conse-
Quently the automobile dealers are ad-
vocating more driving for safer driv-
ing"
Sunday Toll Heaviest.
More accidents occur on Sunday,
when traffic is heaviest, il is pointed
out, than on any day of the week,
chiefly because on that day there are
maximum number of inexperienced
drivers on the road.
Sunday will be the safest day in
the week for driving" reads a state
ment issued by the automobile dealers,
when the inexperienced driver will
have learned little more about road
rules, safety stunts, human nature,
the mechanism of the car and the
effect of the weather on the road. Ac-
cidents are numerous whenever there
is a rainy week end. Ordinarily the
rain is blamed, but the truth of the
matter is a combination of mex
perience in driving under adverse
conditions.
Despite the enormous traffic and
the high speed over Maryland roads
on days when there are events at An
napolis, Laurel and other points of in
terest, accidents are comparatively
few. The reason lies in the fact that
drivers who attempt such a trip in
what promises to be a jam have had
considerable experience in that sort of
driving"
The dealers also are of the opinion
that the experienced driver exercises
helpful influence over the novice on
Sundays and special occasions. and for
that reason he should contribute his
part toward greater safety on the
highways.
Few Novices Use Chains.
1.-THE inexperienced Sunday driver
needs the help and encouragem of
the motorists who know the routes,
the rules and the fundamentals of
safety" the dealers explain. Every
experienced driver on the road can set
an example.
"A recent investigation showed that
whereas on a rainy week day many
chauffeur-driven cars were chain
equipped, hardly any of the cars on
the same road on rainy Sunday were
similarly protected against sllidding.
Many a novice might take tip from
the experienced driver on the matter
of skidding If there were a few more
experienced drivers on the road over
the week end.
Skill in driving comes from prac-
tice. So long as automobiles are used
for week end trips exclusively, we
shall have to contend with the mex
perienced driver who does not know
what to do when an ordinary driving
problem presents itself. There must
be more driving for safety's sake, and
the experienced driver has a part to
play in setting the pace"
