Capper Starts Inquiry &.


Senator Arthur Capper OK Kansas,
chairman Of the Senate District com
mittee and member Of the National
Capital Park Commission, already has
instituted'an inquiry 10 determine the
best means of acquiring these two
forts for the park system. lie said to-
day that he made an effort yesterday
to get Maj l.. :. Grant. Sd. director
OF the Office of Public Buildings and
Public Parks Of the National Capital,
to appear before the full committee on
District OF Columbia to discuss the
question and TO determine upon the
best means Of effectinR their transfer.
He said that he would make a fur
ther effort to confer with Maj. Grant
this afternoon lie was in some
doubt as TO whether tho matter would
properly come before his committee.
although he expressed himself as Will
ing to take what action was within
his power TO save the forts Tor the
park system.
He indicated that he would bring
up the matter at the next meeting Of
the National Capital city and Park
Planning Committee
While realizing the value Of these
two Army posts from both the his
their relative proximity TO the Dis
trict, Secretary Davis said that he
would not like to see the Army lose
the money value of these pieces of
land-l loss to the reconstruction
fund Of the Army.
Troops Need Quarters.
He pointed out that troops IN many
parts of the country are living either
In tents or in ramshackle buildings,
and that even when all OF the Ohso-
lete posts are sold it will not Ivy any
means provide sufficient money TO
equip all of the posts with the housing
and equipment which they absolutely
need.
The Federal agency charged with
the acquisition of park lands in and
around the District, he thought,
should be provided with sufficient
funds with which to purchase these
lands at fair appraised value, even
though 1t is only a book transfer.
Mr.. Moore. who has been an ardent
worker In obtaining park lands in
Washington and vicinity, is strongly
in favor Of the dedication of these
lands to the Federal park system.
He indicated that he would take such
steps as were necessary when the
matter came UP in Congress to pre-
vent the disposition OF these two
forts until it was made certain that
they would be retained for use in
the Federal park system.
Thinks Time too Short.
He pointed out, however. that it
was quite late in the session of Con-
gres to take action, and he express
ed doubt that the War Department.
request of congressional permission
to sell these two forts would be acted
upon.
Mr. Moore indicated that he would
see to prevent their disposition at
this time and at the same time would
urge an inquiry on the question dur
ing the congressional recess.
He vigorously opposes sale Of the
two forts to private individuals, point
ing out that their historical interest
was so great that to allow them to be
sold would be a serious loss to the
which in later years
might be faced with the necessity Of
them at the exorbitant
figure to protect the watershed of
the Potomac of which they now form
q part.
1t seems to be probable now that the
Senate District committee will be the
first to hear the proposition to &C.
quire the two forts.

CITES RECORD

With dealer sales reaching the
Is 900 mark for October. and net
profits for the third quarter at
1929, 1929, John N. WHY'S. presi-
dent Of the Willys.O Overland, Inc,
sees an excellent outlook for the
future, according to- a statement
issued by him at Toledo.
Net profits for the first nine
months Of 1926, Mr.. WHY'S said,
totaled $10,S11,2S0 with ell charges
paid excepting Federal taxes.
Commenting on the healthy bust
ness condition of the Willys-Over-
land company and the bright out
look for the future, Mr.. WHY'S de-
clared:
s.Price reduction policies Of the
WHY'S Overland company have been
justified by the encouraging vol
IIme of business during the fall
months, and all indications point
to a continual growth and expan-
sion of business during the winter.
1.-THE Whippet car is distinct
success and it's immediate accept.
.ance by the motoring public rep
resents one Of the major achieve
ments of the present year in the
automotive industry. BY virtue
Of current plans even greater
promise for the Whippet looms for
the coming year than 1t has al.
ready shown after four months.
1.-THE company is now TN q
strategicaI position to meet with
equanimity any trade, changes that
may come during the winter.
Referring to a slight decrease In
profits for the third quarter Of
1926 as compared with the same
period in 1925, Mr.. WHY'S declared
this to be due to price reductions
in September involving smaller
per car profit and the usual dealer
rebates.
Business during the last two
months Of 1926 is expected to bring
m the fourth quarter into q good
average for the entire year.

GAINS IN
SN0OTHNESS

The new smothness and quietness
in performances qualities which are
gaining widespread popularity for
all the new Nash models has
been made possible by the introduc.
ton n all Nash cars of the seven.
bearing crankshaft.
In this connection IL is noteworthy
that Nash makes these crankshaftS
In their own plants. Thirty-five
operations are required and the clos
est limits OF precision are rigidly adj
hered to, q degree Of accuracy which
gives them their machine tool per-
lection.
This engine design reduces distor-
ton in motor acton to the very
minimum by holding the crankshaft
rigid throughout its entire length.
Seven bearings are the maximum
number of bearings it is practical
or even possible to use on a six
cylinder motor crankshaft. This
makes certain that the crankshaft
in supported at every necessary
point-not merely on the ends or at
one or two places in the middle-by
sturdy main bearings.
This principle counteracts the
constant downward motion OF the
pisfons and connecting rods. q
motion incident to every power
stroke. and produces a resulting
snloothness which is characteristic
only on the seven-bearing type of
construction.
For it is the crankshaft which
receives the pressure exerted on
the pistons and transmits the
power through the propeller shaft
and the rear axle to the rear
wheels which propeI the car.
Absolute smoothness and quiet
ness cannot. therefore. be achieved
unless this power which leaves
the crankshaft and goes to the fly
wheel and other driving members
is absolutely smooth and noise
less.
Naturally enough. with six con.
meeting rods running down on the
crankshaft with ceaseless vigor,
such forces would tend to cause
DETECTION Of the shaft. DETECTION
would In turn result In noisy
operation and roughness.
Consequently. instead Of trying
TO forestan noisy reflections through
some other means, Nash engineers
have absolutely assured the highest
efficiency in the most vital unit
OF the motor. and have safe
guarded its regular smooth opera
ton by supporting the shaft with
seven main bearings.

That the coupe Is steadily gaining
favor In the eyes OF the automobile
buying public is attested by the fact
there has been an exceptionally
heavy and consistent increase in the

The unusual demand for the coupe
can be attributed directly to nu.
merous advantages which are not

Combined with the acceleration
and agility OF the roadster are the
comfort and protection OF the sedan.
