One man will drive in with the
complaint that his brakes need ad-

half dozen owners have been in be-
fore him and that as many will fol-
low him before the day is over. If
he knew IL he'd realize the trouble
is due to the brakes Gettin' water
soaked due TO the rain and the con-
dition of the streets. And he'd save
himself a lot of time, money and
trouble.

TESTS FOR CARBURETOR.
0dometer and Hills Will Indicate
Condition of Mixture.

Are you satisfied the carburetor is
properly adjusted? If not, the odo-
meter can be a handy means OF test
ing the accuracy OF the mixture. The
Bureau OF Mines uses an apparatus
that tells the story about the condi-
tion of the mixture Of any automo-
bile, but until such devices are avail
able to every motorist the odometer
is the next best instrument for this
purpose.
If you are not getting proper
mileage. and fabrication, tire pres

either too rich or too lean. If you
have difficulty starting and in climb
ing hills you can quickly eliminate
the likelihood of too rich an adjust
ment. And if mileage is TOO high,
which might be the case in warm
weather and when driving on level
roads, the mixture is probably too
lean. 1t means that the engine is
always laboring a little more than
necessary to give normal results.

Production First Two Months.
Americas motor car production for
the first two months OF the current
year represents about go. 900 cars, in
cIuding both passenger vehicles and
trucks, according to the estimates o.
the National Automobile Chamber o.
Commerce. This is about 1880 less
than the output for the same two
months in 1924. The figures for March
are expected to show a material in
crease over the February production
figures OF 277,o00, and in view OF the
steadily increasing demand through
out the country-always noticeable at
the opening Of the Spring season-the
April production Will probably be
fully equal 10 the March figures and
may exceed them.
The factory output for these two
months Will provide a very good cri-
terion to form a fairly just estimate
as to the probable automobile produc-
ton for the year. 1t is interesting TO
note that March and April have usu-
ally been the best months for the au-
tomobile factories. Last year the
month OF March was the best OF the
year, providing 3S2,4e4 cars, and April
was the second best with S732I4
total of more than $4,000 cars for
two months. which exceeded tho rec
ord for the similar two months OF
1928 by $4,000 cars. The year 1923
however, was the best year in the
industry, exceeding 100000 cars, and
May of that year, with an output OF
S94IT37 cars, still remains the record
for monthly production. The prevail
ing impression now is that the pres

While some one always loses by rea-

Volved in reconditioning the borrowed
car.
Professional Careful.
Whereas the professional thief will
take care TO drive the car consid-
erately, since he desires to get the
best price for it and cannot under
take to doctor it up for a good per-
formance, the amateur will drive
without oil and half wreck the car
even il he abandons 1t in tranquility
and does not bring it to an untimely
end against a telegraph pole. This
difference serves to focus attention
to the unwieldy dimensions of the
borrowed car" problem at the pres
ent time.
In the last seven years every car
but one stolen from Newport, r. T.,
has been recovered. In the same pc
riod of time York, Pa, has lost but IL .
Here is the borrowed car" menace
at its best. Professional car thieves
would prefer to work in bigger cities,
where underworld news travels
slower and where the field is more
fertile. When. cars disappear from
the streets of Newport for six years
at the rate of from to % an
nually, and all the returned to their
owners, it is obvious that there is no
real permanent theft idea in the
minds of the pilferers. They are
either experimenting or just bor-
rowing.
No account has been taken by the
theft statisticians OF the percentage
OF cars that are reported to the po-
lice as stolen, but which are being
put through the process with the
idea of making an insurance policy
do double duty. There is also more
than humor in the story told of the
man who, finding himself tagged for
overstaying his time in A limited
parking district, went home and
phoned to the police TO advise that
his car had been stolen.
Apparently, as the net tightens
upon the professional car thief, as his
market is being weakened by the
increasing difficulties in registering
cars of doubtful ownership, and as
the law deals more rigidly with him,
the amateur is left to do the med
ding with other peoples property and
to manufacture the bulk of the an
nual loss inflicted upon cars that get
out Of their proper owners hands
temporarily.
The evil OF borrowing cars has in
creased nearly S31s per cent since
1923. 1t begins to look like a social
evil that has already eclipsed the
genuine menace.

Closed car output this year will
total production Of automobiles
This will mean about 100000 more
closed cars than in 1924, or an in
crease of 80 per cent over last year
according to Alfred Reeves, general
manager Of the National Automob bile
Chamber OF Commerce. There is
every indication, in his opinion, that
the market in 1925 will be consider
ably above the demand in 1924.
in considering the automobile out
look, there are several factors which
give promise Of good days ahead"
says Mr.. Reeves. Among these are
the excellent condition OF the rail-
road business, tho conservative policy
OF manufacturing companies, the
sound and active Federal highway
the standards and needs of automo-
bile financing.
Automobile Makers Outlook.
whenever the automobile maker
reads that railroad stocks arc active
and freight car loadings are breaking
records, there is general feeling Of
satisfaction regarding his own busi-
ness. We shipped 726,000 carloads
of automobiles last year. For a num-
ber OF years there was a feeling in
many quarters that the railroad and
motor vehicle were competitive. In
isolated cases this is true, but in the
main the two agencies are mutually
dependent Industry must have an
efficient railroad system for transpor-
tatIon OF goods and people for the
enormous distances of this country.
at the same time the rail lines
cannot operate with economy for
many short distance routes and they
need the services of the motor car,
the truck and the bus to build up
outlying districts and to take care Of
the radiating territory.
Railroads are financed through
stocks and bonds. The public pays
for its highways through taxation and
bonds. The individual purchases his
vehicle sometimes for cash, but more
frequently using some degree OF
credit
This use Of credit in buying motor
transportation is logical and proper.
The automobile is compared to the
equipment certificates which are
sometimes issued by railroads for the
purchase of new material or to the
railroad bonds which are f1oated TO
care for either rolling stock or for
other essentials.
Business Incurs Small Risk.
The automotive banker, in fact, is
in a business which has less risks
than railroad financing because his
funds are spread over a widely diver
sified range of accounts. His Gus
toners in the truck and bus fields
are earning money in the use of the
equipment. The automobile owner is
likewise earning either a cash income
due TO his operation Of a car or Sc
cures other values in terms OF time
