power the heaviest model and to give
that model the kind and calibre of
live, alert, powerful performance that
has hitherto been linked only with the
open car.
In the first place this new Nash
"enclosed car" motor is bigger, with
greater power development. Meas
ured in relative terms there is approx
mately $50 increase in this point
alone. Yet so expertly has the motor
been designed that despite the in
crease in power and speed there is
such economy in the consumption of
fuel that the mileage per gallon re-
mains at it's old low level.
Emphatic interest also invests the
manner in which Nash recreated for
mer standards of acceleration. The
sparkling rapidity now attained in the
responsiveness of this motor is seen
in the fact that with this new SEN
closed car" motor the elapsed time in
climbing from one rate of speed to a
higher rate is 1870 less than formerly.
Another feature that is focusing
the attention of visitors to the Nash
show rooms is the complete manner
in which this enclosed car" motor is
encased against foreign substances.
Nash originally led the movement to

The Old MECHANIC says:

In tryin' to clean various parts of
their cars 1 notice that lot O. car
owners merely put more dirt in places
where dirt should not be. This is
usually the case in cleanin' spark
plugs. The owner unscrews plug
and then, before replacin' it, wipes off
the cylinder head with a rag. There s
always a certain amount of dirt around
the spark plug opening. and they sim
ply push this into the cylinder.
Another common mistake is in re-
pairin' tire or in putin in new
inner tube. When the motorist does
this himself he is likely to pick up
dirt from the garage floor.I saw Brown
house the other day. Only a miracle
would keep a pebble out of the tire
when he got it all together.
Another time 1 saw Brown remov-
in a front wheel out on the gravel
driveway. He just let the wheel fall to
the ground and didn't seem to care
whether the grease from the hub
picked up a few pebbles or not.
Most owners are little more care
full than Brown, but even then they
often go wrong. When it comes to
cleanin' wheel bearin' I've seen many
of them use kerosene instead Of gaso-
line. Kerosene cleans we'll enough
but 1t doesn't dry quickly. 1t just stays
around the bearin' and thins down the
fresh grease the owner uses.
Most car owners are gettin' wise to
the fact that it doesn't pay to flush
out the engine with kerosene. The
best way to flush out the system is
to use quart or two Of fresh oil.
There are lot Of ways to clean va
rious parts of any car, but I've never
been able to see any sense In addin'
lot of dirt and unnecessary trouble en-
route.

How New Gear Works

Motorists have been hearing much
about new type of steering gear that
adjusts itself to steering needs auto
mat1cally. but there is a tendency to
assume that the salesman is exagger-
ating for the sake of making a sales
point. The truth of the matter is
statesmen for cars embodying this new
feature do not dwell upon it enough
for the reason that they do not always
understand it themselves.
The idea of this new type of steering
is to provide for maximum leverage on
the pitman arm (Which controls the
steering rods) when caught in a tight
place, as in parking, and at the same
time to provide for sensitive control
Of steering when driving over the road.
one or the novel ways of obtaining
this effect is as follows:

Easy Terms Not So Easy

Credit experts are busy warning
bankers. automobile dealers and manu-
facturers against the hazards of offer
ing too liberal terms on cars The
warning. however, applies equally well
to the steady motorist. If he encour-
ages an evil in the business, and the
business suffers through defective
financing, he is forced to assume his
share of the consequent loss.
The used car appears to be the
stumbling block. When loose financ-
ing has been offered to the public the
number of repossessed cars increase.
Repossessed cars are enthusiastically de-
fined as cars taken back from motor
lists who default on their payments,
but such cars are far more serious
matter. Repossessed cars swell the
offerings on the used car market and
act as backlash on the business. When
there are number of such cars on the
market automobile dealers find it just
that much more difficult to dispose of
their regular line of used cars.
Unwise financing of car purchases
is likened to a vicious circle in which
the motorist who takes advantage of
the market eventually pays for his
loiiE. Even IL le - Htheiy Nops'oAO
of meeting his payments the situation
works to his ultimate disadvantage as
follows:
Someone who has no business buy
ing a car, and who cannot pay for it
even if notes are strung out over Is
months, buys a car because Everybody
Is doing it," This car reverts to the
finance company or to the dealer. 1t
then has to be sold In the local mar
ket, and because funds are needed for
current business it Is likely to be sold
at a sacrifice. This makes 1t more
difficult to dispose of the regular line
of used cars. Allowances on used
cars are lower. 1t costs more to buy
a new car.
The man who encourag es loose
financing, therefore, soon finds him
self paying the penalty.

seeking to improve upon the perform
ance standards of today.
Since the beginning of the industry
it has been general practice for auto
mobile engineers to develop their mo-
tors upon the basis of the require
ments for touring car models. Once
they had achieved satisfactory per-
Torrance, they employed the same
motor in the production of their en-
closed bodies. The result was that the
standard of performance alta ined in
open cars was never reached with the
lar heavier enclosed models. And
buyers have long been accustomed to
console themselves with the thought
that no enclosed car could be expected
to perform like an open car. g.
But that was not necessarily true
and Nash has deliberately set aside
custom and engineered a motor
specially for the requirements of en-
closed models. In fact instead of
building the performance abilities of
the motor up to the lightest car of
the line, Nash has created a motor To

Dries without Spotting

After heavy rain, and following
the chamoising process, the average
car will be ,spotty. This applies to the
new lacquer finishes as we'll as to the
usual paint jobs, blue cars being par
ticularly prone to spot. Sunlight and
polish will restore the finish to it's
original condition, but simpler and
more effective method is to go over
the spotty sections of the car with a
light polish after chamoising them
dry Polish at that particular time

One reason for lack Of success with
fuel adulterants is in failure to mix

relied on an ordinance that is never

poles, and took the two workers to
jail. placing charges of violating city
ordinances against them.
The workers were N. Stevens and
d. Plasin. They were arrested in
the factory district near Twenty-sec-
ond and Blue Island. On the same
poles that they we're placing the post
ers. we're countless others advertis-
