PRICE. OF ESSEX
IS REDUCED
AGAIN
Waiter Lambert, Distributor
Here, Explains How Cuts
Are Possible

Essex reduces prices again, !"
said Walter Lambert, Hudson Essex
distributor, ''and in doing so has
established a record low price for
six cylinder cars. Essex. coaches
have long been the lowest priced
six-cylinder closed cars on the mar
ket, and now they are offered at a
price actually below that Of any
six cylinder open car.
Especially with the easy pur-
chasing terms which we now have
in effect, almost anyone who has
the purchase Of any closed car in
mind can buy an Essex coach.
This reduction In price is q
most striking example Of what can
be accomplished by e large volume
of business. Hudson-Esse is now
the largest builder of six-cylinder
motor cars HI the world. This fact
results In economies which would
not be possible under any other
condition. That is why the Essex
can be offered at so very favorable
a figure.
The reduction in the Essex price
comes just q month after the cut
In the Hudson super-six. Both Of
these reductions were In line with
the Hudson Essex policy Of giving
the best possible value at all times.

The prospective moter-camper Is
urged to take at least a short tour
before he starts on a camping va
cation. This usually can be ac-
complished over week-ends.
It appears that en- route to the
motorscamp there are many new
and important matters to be con;
sidered this year, In addition to
th.se which always must be con-
sidered by the driver who is a lit
tie out of practice in long distance
touring.
One of the important considera-
tons this year is the variation in
the. standard of stopping, If indeed
there Is any standard.
The man who has not as yet
driven along a crowded highway
near q city where the percentage
Of ur-Wheel -brake-equipped cars is
high Is not likely to appreciate the
importance of having his brakes
adjusted for the most efficient SER
vice possible.
Unless motor-campers give thought
TO this matter they are likely to
find themselves caught in a trap
on q crowded highway. and any
collision that ensues certainly viii

More Care Necessary.
Generally speaking. cars used
this year for camping trips are
more likely to be equipped with
the sort Of brakes that were in
vogue several years, ago.
According to dealer statistics,
large number Of persons who have
bought the new 1926 models have
kept their old cars for summer use
rather than let them go DIT what
they considered a ridiculously small
figure.
Being accustomed to the improved
stopping ability of the newer cars,
whether two or four-wheel brake
equipped. they ere likely to be a
bit surprised now and again, If they
are not prepared for It, to discover
that in today's traffic one has to
be more careful with an older car.
Even IL using a new car on a
trip, it is important to give thought
TO the possibility that others who
follow along the trail that leads to-

No moterist can afford to be
thinking too seriously about the
place where he is going to camp.
when there is danger Of someone
In an old car behind puncturing his
gas tank when he forgets himself
and stops too suddenly.
One More Point.
Another point to keep in mind
is the necessity for carrying along
sufficient spare equipment for the
car itself.
There is a growing tendency to
consider the car immune from
trouble, probably because most cars
stand for a lot Of abuse. Also there
are many owners who have a lot
more trouble than they know.
The garageman is always on hand
to fix this thing Or that, with the
result that the owner has no real
conception of the amount of trouble
he is having, nor the seriousness
of It. The .garageman may be q
clever chap. -
It is just as necessary as 1t ever
was to be prepared for car troubles
The explanation for this Is, that
while the automobile itself is more
trustworthy. it goes farther than it
ever did before. s.
Just consider how far from home
the contemplated camping trip is
as compared with the destination
of most OF the trips taken five or
ten years ago.
Usually the camper likes TO get
away from the big cities and from
those places where reliable repair
shops, garages and filling stations
are frequent.
In getting back to nature he also
gets back to self-reliance.
There is no handy man to
change a tire and no clever mind
to dope out the cause Of a miss
In the motor. The motorist is on
his own. and has to be prepared
accordingly.

that It is no longer easy ITO stop

Parking Places Few.
Today 1t Is troublesome finding
q place to park. Thus 1t has be.
come necessary to be a judge Of
directions and to acquire the knack
Of stopping awhile before entering
a city in order to get good men
tai picture of the lay of 1t.
Experienced motor-campefs and
tourists state that there is no bet
ter way to acquire this knack than
to learn by doing.
A trip now may be the means
OF making the touring end Of the
camping trip a genuine success.
The details of camping should,
of course, receive due consideration
prior to the trip, but these should
not be emphasized to point where
the importance Of being able to
size up the traffic pecularities Of
strange cities is forgotten, or the
necessity for carrying suitable
equipment to insure against break
down overlooked.
Many cities now provide a means

as to speed regulations, parking
and turns, just do as the most con.

license plate does, for instance, will

En- route to the motor camp are
most OF the pleasures and most
OF the pitfalls. Before taking the
big trip Of the year 1t will prove
profitable to indulge in a prelimi-
nary one just as a reminder.

CHAMBER FIXES
PRICE RANGE
Emergency Measure Provides
Limit in Days Change
in Values.

Minneapolis-The Minneapolis Cham.
Der OF Commerce, in one of the most
important changes to it's regulation in
its 40 years of existence, took volun-
tary action to limit the fluctuations Of
the prices of grain for future delivery.
BY virtually unanimous vote, the
members Of the chamber empowered
their board of directors, at any time
upon 10 hours advanse notice, to de-
clare that an emergency exists. Dur
ing the emergency the directors may
provide that there shall be no trading
in futures of any specified grain at
prices five per cent, or some higher
percentage, above or below the aver
age closing price of the day before. A
similar rule was put into effect by the
Chicago board of trade.
Is Important Development.
The new rule marks one Of the most
important developments in the history
of the grain market. 1t provides eff
fective means for checking runaway"
markets and violent swing in prices.
The grain trade united in hailing the
new departure as certain to prove a
mighty factor in stabilizing the grain
market of the country through its in
struments for doing away with fuc-
tuations so wide as to cause damage to
producers of, or dealers in grain.

Reflex Instead of First

almost certain to fail. Hence be care
full of your reflex work.
Now, the last audio tube handles the
heavier audio load. Maybe that Is the
one that should be reflected, since the
signals are to be delivered into the
parallel-connected stage, which 1t is
assumed are able to handle them best.
But the experimental may find that
the audio load is not the troublesome
one. The radio load having been
shared satisfactorily between the two
tubes Il and p, the reflex idea may
be embodied solely for the object Of
avoiding the extra tube, and not for
.remedying any condition due to an
audio overload. Therefore, in such a
case, the first audio stage would be
properly ref1exed. Also the leads
would be shorter that way.
Fans who do not care much about
the cost entailed may omit the reflex
ing entirely and use either parallel
connected tubes in the radio stage or
in the last audio stage or in both
places, as an experiment.
The two sets shown in the diagrams
work well, as do the two others sug-
gested. The problem Is for the expert
menter to decide whether the parallel
idea is worth while and If SO. whether
for radio or audio reasons, or for
combination of both.

of War.

Washington-John W. Weeks placed
his resignation as secretary of war in
President Coolidge's hands.
Since Secretary Weeks was stricken
last March with the illness that has
resulted in his decision to retire, Mr.
Davis has been acting secretary and
has borne the full administrative bur-
den of the department.
Mr.. Weeks retirement is due, not to
his own choice, but to the pressure of
the members of his family and to adj
vice Of his physicians. His with
drawal from the cabinet will leave
only Secretaries Mellon, Hoover, Work
and James ]. Davis of the labor de-
circle, whom Mr.. Coolidge asked to
carry on with him when he succeeded
to the presidency.
Dwight F. Davis of st. Louis was
named secretary of war by President
Coolidge, following official announce
ment of the long anticipated resigna.
ton Of Secretary of War John w.
Weeks, of Massachusetts,, by the
White House.
The resignation and appointment
were announced simultaneously fol-
lowing Weeks attendance at his final
cabinet meeting.
Mr.. Davis, business man of St.
Louis, with the rank Of colonel in the
officers reserve corps, received the ap-
pointment because of his satisfactory
during Weeks absence. His defense
of the Presidents economy program
against the drive of the general staff
for larger appropriations gained for
him the Presidents favor.
