NOV. 10
Light Six Will Be Put on Mar
ket Two Days Later.
Price Is Low

CLEVELAND, Nov. 11.-An-
nouncement is made at the factory
of the Peerless Motor Car Company
that the new Model 80 light six
cylinder car will be announced for.
mally November 10 and will be
shown to the public in Peerless
showrooms in different parts of the
country on November 81.
The formal announcement Of the
new car will reveal to the public
the conception which Edward Yer
Linden, president of Peerless. has
as to the kind OF a car the public
is demanding. 1t viii be found to
be a car which is roolny and pow
erful enough for all ordinary l'usi-
ness and family uses and at the
same time light and compact
enough for care of operation, espe-
ciaIly on crowded city streets OF
the present day Most surprising
Peerless can be bought at a price
within the reach Of almost any
purchaser who is in the market
for real automobile.
Dealers who have seen samples
of the new model are enthusiastic
over it and Peerless has formed
many new dealer competitions with
men who feel that the new car will
have q decided place of its own in
the automobile market.
Sales Of the established lines of
Peerless cars, the Equipoised Eight
and powerful six-cylinder Model
Seventy two. have been such that
production for October at the Peer.
less factory was announced as 100
per cent greater than the figures
in October of last year.

To PREVENT
SK|DD|NG
Increase of Traffic Increases
Street Hazards-Chains
Praised After Tests

More automobiles will be on the
streets this winter than ever before,
according to information that has
oeen received from the Federal Gov
crnment and from automobile
dealers associations. The latest
Federal count of automobiles dis
closes that there LAO pleasure cars
being driven this year for every
1000 that were in use last year at
this time. Automobile dealers re-
port a tremendous increase in the
number of closed cars sold in com
parlson with the number of open
ones, all of which means a tremen-
dous increase in the volume OF traf-
fic in large communities.
Difficult Traffic
One OF the principal results Of
that increase has been to make mu-
nicipal traffic problems more diff
cult to- solution than ever. In the
serious business OF solving those
problems, the traffic commission OF
Chicago wherein motor congestion
has reached a very acute stage-has
declared that safety must be q
basic factor.
With the approach Of winter the
hazard of driving an automobile has
increased MANIFOLD anc the commits
sions in several of the more ag-
gressive cities are making efforts
to reduce the hazerds by checking
up on the number Of accidents in
which either persons or property
arc damaged due to skidding.
In fact, the largest cab company
In the world has spend this year
$500 in order to prevent the
skidding of its thousands Of cabs
on the wet or Icy streets and, ac-
cording to published statements, Of
the company, 1t has equipped all
It's cabs with skid chains OF the
weed type-which may be put on
In a rnoment-and every driver has
been instructed that there can be
no compromise with safety.
Skid Chains Praised
Indeed tho company has gone so
FIR as to give the public the as
surance gained from the company's
years OF experience and testing that
1.-THE skid chain is the only device
The Washington times., 1925-11-11

that has ever been perfected to
step the slipping of motor cars on
wet streets"
Recent reports OF accidents in Chi
cago show that many of the worst
ones are due to the inability of the
driver to stop his car unequipped
with skid chains on wet or ice.cover
ed streets. The great addition of
cars that will be in operation this
winter make it the more imperative
for every precaution to be taken
that will insure complete control Of
the car.
A skidding car Is absolutely un-
controlled - it is a social and
economic menace which might be
so easily avoided by the use of
chains that a widespread campaign
of education has been inaugurated
to teach drivers that after watchful
caution the elimination Of skidding
is the most essential factor in safe
driving

30 PER CENT OF
OLDS AUTOS
ARE CLOSED
Public Trend Toward This
Type of Car Shown at
This Factory

The big general public trend to-
ward the closed type of automobile
is strikingly illustrated by the ex-
perience of the Olds Motor Works,
one Of the big units Of General Mo-
tors Where a year or two ago so
per cent closed cars was. the general
average. today IS per cent of all
cars shipped from the big Oldsmo-
bile plant at Lansing are of the
closed type.
This unprecedented demand for
coaches and sedans has necessitated
material changes in Oldsmobile pro-
duction plans. It has been neceS-
sary to provide additional floor
space and rearrange shop layoutS
In certain departments to accommo-
date the increased operations made
necessary by the greatly increased
closed car demand.
The most important change made
was the taking over by the Fisher
Body Corporation Of an additional
group of buildings comprising over
$4,000 square feet Of floor space.
This additional space added to the
original Fisher operations, gives
Cnem IaclllCleS Tor greatly 1ncreaS-
ing their production Of closed bod
les for Oldsmobile exclusively.
These increased facilities in the
Fisher plant at Lansing, together
with extensions and expansions in
the Odds factory. viii make 1t pos
sible for OIdsmobile to double its
production by January, 1926.
OF the entire production and sale
Of Oldsmobfles for the first eleven
months Of 1925, including export,
75 per cent were closed body mod
els and 25 per cent open cars and
chassis. However, the domestic
sale was S5 per cent closed bodies
and 15 per cent open. While the
export sale was only 81 per cent
closed bodies, this is far higher
than in previous years, when prac-
tically every car shipped overseas
was Of the open body type. This
shows that the trend toward closed
cars is also extending to foreign
countries.
Oldsmobile. with rs per cent of
its entire production closed cars,
rated far higher than the average
for the entire automobile industry.
The percentage OF closed cars built
by all companies during the first
eight months of 1925 was approx
mately 81.

]. s. PRODUCES
80 PER CENT
Of AUTOS
$4,000 Cars and Trucks
Made in 1924, Ten Times
as Much as All Europe
BY ROBERT s. THoRNBURGH

by hODENNA D. AAOAeAND -
The United States in compare
lively few years has erected an
automotive industry that produces
over so per cent Of the auto
mobiles used in the world.
Figures made public at the De.
partment of Commerce illustrate
this tremendous control of the mar
keith 1924 the manufacturers of
this country built 3,640,000 cars
and trucks, in contrast with an
output of $50, 900 machines in Great
Britain, France, Italy and Ger
many.
All Europe did not produce in
excess Of 100000 automobiles last
| year.
Mass production, made possible
| in the United States because of the
| tremendously lucrative domestic
market. is the answer to American
| supremacy in the automobile in
| dustry.
To Hold Supremacy
Because there Is so great a de.
the manufacturer virtually is I'M
! limited in his output-cheap pro
duction is the result.
In Europe, on the other hand
there is not found the domestic de-
mand. Mass production was tried
by several manufacturers without
success.
Officials here believe that for all
time to come the manufacturers in
America will have this great ad-
vantage over TIE European and
hence never will be seriously ham
pered in competition, regardless of
the cheap foreign labor and other
lowered costs of operation.
Export figures for the different
European producing countries
are so dissimilarIy classified as to
make a direct comparison with
United States and Canada difficult, %
a department official said.
] American Exports
! However, on an approximate
basis Of grouping passenger cars
and trucks, American exports UNIT
amounted to 224,851 units, as com.
pared with a combined total of
84,961 for Great Britain, France,
Italy and Germany. This differ
ence of something less than to 1
in favor of. American exports con-
trasts with the much greater dis.
parity Of II to 1, between the rela-
tive production totals of the two
comparative groups and suggests
greater relative export activity on
the part Of the European pro-
ducers."
Europe's Output Grows
production In the United King
dom, France, Germany and Italy,
according to the best available data,
increased from 258,000 passenger
cars and trucks in 1923 to 800, 900
in 1924, a gain of approximately
80 per cent, while shipments, in
J Guiding foreign assemblies from
the United States and Canada, ad-
vanced only 1914 per cent, or from
| 315,381 to 367 1877 units.
''If this condition of rising over
seas production keeps up-and there
! is good reason for making this as
sumption-it logically follows that
American automobile exporters can
not hope to secure as great a per-
centage Of foreign business in the
future as they otherwise would.
THE statement should not he
misconstrued to mean that our ex-
ports will not increase, for figures
comparable to the above covering
the first six months of 1925, amount
ing to 269,3 1913 units, indicate that
new high record will be made
| when complete returns for the full
year are made known"
