FATALITY HAZARD
GREATER ON TRAIN
THAN MOTOR CAR

The hazard Of fatality on the basis
Of train miles and automobile miles
IS nine times greater with a train than
with highway traffic.
In making this statement the Amer
lean Automobile Association which is
one Of the principal organization mem
hers Of the Hoover Conference on
Street and Highway Safety. merely
wants 20 call attention TO a fact very
often overlooked, namely. the tremend-
Gus mileage run by automobiles.
That the hazard on e mileage basis
as between trains and automobiles is
correctly stated will be seen from the
following figures. In 1923. the last
year for which complete figures are
available. railway accidents accounted
for 1922 deaths and J6.464 injuries,
a total Of 63.3S6 killed and injured.
The total train mileage. freight and
passenger. for 1923 was 1.191 .397 .000
showing that in round nEmbers there
was ono accident for every 1900
miles.
In the same year the accidents in
which motor vehicles figured account
I'd for 1900 deaths and 100000 in
jured . total Of $4,000. The total
motor vehicle mileage for the wear is
estimated az 5000. 600 600 miles. This
Wonld mean one motor vehicle accident
for every 10000 miles. Thus on
mileage basis the railway hazard is
nine timos greater than the automobile

CLEANING AND SOFTENING
WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
IN CAR HELPING TO
LENGTHEN TIRE LIFE

A most important item Of automo-
bile operating expense is tires.
Aside from road and climatic condi-
tons, many factors influence tire mile
age, chief among which are proper
ton Of car weight TO tire size, distri-
button Of car weight. spring suspen-
son and spring hexibility.
Automobile manufacturers regard
tire mileage as an important factor
and are vitality concerned in the pro
duction Of sutomotiTe transportation
that best conserves tire life.
That definite and sppreciable prog
ress has been made is evidenced by a
comparison Of present day tire mile
age with that Of decade back.
Ten years ago $500 was considered
fair tire mileage. Today. less than
seven or eight thousand miles from 4
set Of tires is unsatisfactory.
Some Of this increase in tire life
is attributable 10 better roads and
better tire construction. Much Of il
is due 10 the successful efforts Of au-
tomobile manufacturers TO reduce and
properly distribute car weights, 70
provide correct spring suspension and
TO absorb through the medium Of
springs Of the right resiliency many
Of the road shocks that pound tires

FIREMEN TURN FORD
MECHANICS BETWEEN
ALARMS AT PLANT

Fighting fires is one thing, but
when there aren't any fires 10 fight
why the firemen haven't anything 60
do, that is, most Of them.
Just about every one knows how
heavy time hangs on the hands Of the
BOYS. around the average city fire
engine station between alarms, but
anyone interested IN seeing something
different can find il at the Central
Fire station in the Highland Park
plaut of the Ford Motor company. &C
cording TO the Jordan-Ivers Motor
company.
Here the picture Is entirely differ
emit. Just baek of where the fire truck
stands there IS a row Of drill presses
and between alarms the firemen keep
busy operating the presses IN th'
manufacture Of parts for Ford cars
Besides. the men work in eight
hour shifts twenty-four hours day
There are no sleeping quarters and tne
men are wide awake and on the Job all
the time.
II is less than twenty feet from the
uresees 20 the fire truck so when an
alarm comes in it is only matter for
each man TO make quick turn around
and climb on the truck to transform
himself from a machine operator into
a fireman on the way TO fire.
Ninety men regularly employed in
the Highland Park plant are on the
fire department roll and this force is
augmented by 200 specially trained
men who may be called out at mo-
mept's notice in case Of emergency.

70 DISTINCT OPERATIONS IN
CAR UPHOLSTERY MAKING

The many operations and the care
and skilled workmanship necessary in
the manufacture of Moon and Diana
corduroy upholstery was told in q
recent interview with Carl W. Burst.
vice president and works manager of
the Moon Motor Car Company in
which Mr.. Burst said:

roy) dates back a number Of centur-

COMPLICATED PROCESS.

'The exceptional colorings of Royal
Cord Fabrics. blending into the color
scheme Of the car. are secured only
by several complicated processes. re-
curing much time. care and skill.
Their lustrous finish is brought out
in the finishing process. The cloth
is polished and repOlished until not only
the fibres take on added life and lus-
tire. but also the face of the cloth as
sumes its distinctive soft. velvety
character. In all, the making Of every
piece Of this fabric requires about 20
distinct and separate operations. each
one Of which is performed at the hands
Of a highly skilled workman. These
new methods have enabled the manu-
facturers Of Royal Cord Fabrics To
produce the number OF especially at
tractiTe designs which could not be
produced before the recent invention
Of the new machinery for the manufac-
turing of this fabric.
That corduroy is an exceedingly
durable material for upholstering au-
tOmObiles has long been an accepted
fact by the industry. but heretofore
the Ieck Of proper facilities for produc-
Ing attractive designs has restricted
the popularity of corduroy as an up.
holstering material for automobiles.
Now. however, there Is a decided trend
toward the use of corduroy in en-
closed motor cars. this trend being
manifested particularly during the
past six months. Moon having been
one Of the first TO recognize the dura-
bility and attractive features OF the
new process Of corduroy manufacture

which tends to make each thread
stand erect, and which at the sam
time thoroughly cleans and softens the
material. As soon as the threads have
been opened up sufficiently. the cloth
is passed through a series of machines
equipped with brushes shaped like
shoe-brushes. but much heavier. These
brushes pass back and forth over the
face OF the cloth bending and forming
the pile. and finally bringing out the
well rounded ribs peculiar to this ma
terial. Then follow a number of in
termediGte operations. each of the ut
most importance. after which the cloth
is ready for dyeing.

AUTO HELPING
To DEVELOP
TIRES

Every automobiles knows tia

manufacturers. do not wait for results

rlnually testing in advance various
kinds OF tires under all kinds of actual
road driving 10 determine where weak

2. lander, local Oldsmobile dealer.
This tire testing is equally strenu-
Gus on the automobile. as the follow
ing report made by II. VI. Strachan.
sales manager of the Pennsylvania
Rubber company Of America. shows.
On January Is. this year. the rub
her company selected an Oldsmobile
Six sedan. as it represented about the
weight car We wanted, and also be-
lieved it to be the best car in its
class" to quote Mr.. Strachan.
EXTENSIVE TEST.
'Tt has been and is the duty OF
this car" says Mr.. Strschan. "to wear
cut tires without the car wearing out
or depreciating itself 10 a point who're
it Is too expensive 10 operate. The
Oidsmobile is driven night and day
by two drivers, each man driving 10
hours and covering between 1J0 to 200
miles during his turn. This is a daily
average of from 800 TO 400 miles.
Sacks of sand equivalent in weight To
three persons are carried in the back
Of the car.
"Up to August 5. this Oldsmobile
had covered HOPS miles at cost OF
.076 cents per mile, this cost includ-
ing depreciation, repairs, gasoline. oil,
sll driving and operating expenses. in
Guiding drivers time. and tires. Prac-
fically all Of this mileage was up and
down the Allegheny mountains, with
a certain per cent each day over I'M
improved roads. While on the road
the car never travels under the leglti-
mate speed limit, which in Pennsyl-
vania varies according 10 the circum-
stances and the motor patrolmen.
CAR GOING GOOD.
EFT is only natural TO believe that
a car which has had this kind Of ser
vice. driven by men whose duty it IS
10 wear out tires, would be ready for
the Ssrrasso Sea of motor vehicles,
particularly when our experience has
been that the average car. after 1t
has gone 5000 miles. begins TO cost
a LOT of money and also a lot Of de-
laws. But this Oldsmobile runs as
rood now as when we got it, and both
paint and upholstery are IN excellent
shape. The tenders have been BENT
and Strengthened several times, but no
vital part has had TO be replaced.
Previous to the purchase OF INC

company used exclusively one OF the
ana most expensive cars made
n this country for test work.

PLANNING
To DOUBLE
OUTPUT

Orders have been placed by Odds
Motor Works for additional equip
ment which will enable it to double
its production of Oldsmobiles. These
added facilities are required to meet
the growing demand, and to fill the
scheduled production for 1925, which,
it is expected will be the largest in the
% years of automobile building by this
pioneer company, according to Liston
E. lander, local dealer.
Besides new equipment in the Odds
mobile factory, additional ovens will
be installed in the plant Of the Fisher
Body Corporation, which adjOins the
Odds Motor Works and which builds |
closed bodies for Oldsmobile exclus |
lively. At the present time all ovens |
available are being worked confirm |
ously "a hours a day, and even with /
this peak production, the Fisher plant |
is hard pressed TO keep pace with or
ders. Other additional equipment will /
be installed in certain departments Of .
the Oldsmobile plant that are now be- /
ing worked at capacity and in many |
cases operated overtime.
MAKE SAL IN MONTH.
During September there were 5J41
Oldsmobiles manufactured and sold by |
the factory. These cars were sold by ,
dealers to consumers as quickly as re-
ceived. due to the fact that dealers /
have not been able to build up am
reserve stock on account of the great /
demand manifested for the Series ID" |
cars introduced early in August. This /
is an average production Of approzi /
mately 80 cars a day, and. with tn 1
present big demand for closed cars, /
about the limit Of existing facilities.
Not later than January we will .
be able 70 produce from 400 to 800 .
OldsmObiles a day" reports ]. J. Rcu- |
ter. president and general manager Of |

We will increase our production before |
then. but it requires time to have |

400 CARS A DAY.
Every indication points to the nc d |
Of minimum production Of at least /
100 cars every working day to take |
care Of our 1926 business. Our dealer /
organization has grown steadily in /
size during the past year and the |
public reception Of the latest Odds |
