Route in 8 Hours.

roadster, strictly stock, Travelled
more than 800 miles over the noun
tains of Maryland and Pennsylvania
in eight hours, on nonstop road
run from Baltimore to Cumberland
and return.
The test was arranged to demon
strate power of the Whippet and
to show its performance in high
gear over steep mountain highways

has ever crossed these states.
Shortly after passing Hagerstown,
a binding fog was encountered
which made the going dangerous.
Despite this condition, the Whippet
negotiated the steep grades of
Braddock Heights, South Mountain,
Negro Mountain, Polish Mountain
and Martins Mountain. Average
speed of the Whippet over the crest
of these mountains was thirty-two
miles an hour.
During the run through Maryland
the State speed laws we're complied
with, the driver, however, making
up the lost time on the Pennsyl-

high rate of speed through the Key

stretches, registering ST miles an

October Expected to Show

DETROIT, Oct. 5.-Passenger car

further declines may be expected
during October, according to B. H.
Cram, president of Grams Automo-
tive Reports, industry authority.
While curtailment is pretty well
general, it is much more marked
with some companies than others.
It is evident that the industry is
holding its production close to &C
tual retail sales conditions, that
dealer stocks of both new and used
cars may be held to safe levels.
The sales impetus that followed
the introduction of new models
and lines by several companies re-
Gently, with resultant stepping un
of production, is now greatly re-
duced.
This, together with the customary
seasonal decline, impending Ford
announcement and the unfavorable
weather conditions in many sections
Of the country, constitute the ap-
parent reason for production de-
crease.
The sales situation, at the mo-
ment, is more confused than it has
been for many day. While there
are marked signs of a general cas-
ing off of sales, some territories are
showing sharp drops over August,
while others are holding their own.
Lower priced cars appear to be
feeling most of the slowing down
process, as several of the higher
priced lines are holding up fairly
strong.

Care, Says Auburn Chief.

"a greater speed, on our public
highways, will reduce the death rate
from auto accidents, through the
development of more careful driv-
ing and more cautious pedestrians, p"
says E. L. Cord, president of the
Auburn Automobile Company.
I'm practically every city of any
size, in the United States, auto
mobile accident statistics will show
that by far the greater number of
accidents occur on the back and
side streets, where there is but
small amount of traffic.
"Autoists driving down such thor
oughfares as Michigan Blvd. or
Sheridan Rd., in Chicago, are known
to make speed of thirty-five miles
per hour. Pedestrians, as well as
autoists, in such densely settled
districts, through years of expert
ence are taught to exercise extreme
caution, coming to a stop before
they cross such thoroughfares.
present speed laws were enact
ed when we had four-cylinder, 30
horsepower automobiles, weighing
5000 pounds. These cars were built
high, were dangerous on quick
turns and slow to pick up.
Low center of gravity construc-
ton today practically eliminates the
danger of overturning, cars can pick
up faster, and motors of go to 80
horsepower and four-wheel brakes

under complete control at all times.

Tail Light
By swede Swanson

The great increase of automobiles
on the highways of late forces upon
us more than ever the single
thought of safety. Safety is wanted
on from the reckless motorist, the
incompetent and the unheeding.
Safety will be sought for the great
majority of us who are careful, as
protection against the remaining
few.
It is sad to contemplate that our
lives should be endangered by al
most negligible proportion Of the
motoring public. But figures show
this to be true. And while acct
dents rise year after year, it is for
the majority to keep an eye on the
reckless minority.
No better work in this direction
has been done than what has been
achieved by the National Safety
Council and it's cooperating local
safety councils throughout the coun-
try. It is tribute to this organi-
zation that fatalities in many cities
have been cut down considerably
due to its educational campaigns.
The National Safety Council is in
terested in safety measures Of all
kinds in factories and homes as well
as on the streets. Its humane at
titude should be appreciated by all
of us. 1t should get our coopera-
ton, for our own good.

However, it appears difficult to

offset the new Ford car, and this is

topher couldn't know that Anne at
this very moment was hidden on the
derelict in the abandoned de Lesseps
Canal longing for him as earnestly
as he longed for her! Much as he
loved Anne, a love which would have
driven him to an: thing short or
murder, his honest American nature
could not have conceived that any
rival no matter how desperate. would
go to such length rs to steal his girl
from him in that way! Christopher
was entirely modern, and such
methods, had he even dreamed or
them, would have been set aside as
eighteenth century stuff! There was
nothing stupid about Christopher. He
was merely handicapped by one
thing-he did not know why this man
wanted to marry Anne!
Marriage to him was the fulfill
ment of a great love, the supreme
event of his life. so far. 1t meant a
partnership between himself and
Anne, companionship, sympathy
and understanding which would help
them both to weather the storms and
achieve the highest ranks of success
and happiness. Such a degrading
thing as a marriage of convenience,
had 1t ever entered his mind. would
have promptly and scornfully been
dismissed. Straine had been the
perfect lover. Christopher never for
an instant doubted the sincerity OF
his passion.
Nor had 1t ever occurred to this
honest young mind that a man might
love a girl in all sincerity and in
addition desire to win her love for
Interior motives. To Chris, Anne
was just girl. the most adorable OF
all women. but to Straine-how could
he know what she represented to this
reserved stranger, the man who told
nothing of himself?
Fatigue was getting the better OF
Christopher. This was his third night
without sleep. and the short maps
which had relieved him for the time
had not been nearly sufficient. His

DEPRESSION THEORY

and prosperity was rejected by Vir-
gil Jordan before 200 economists and
statisticians at the annual meeting
of the National Industrial Conference
Board. Mr. Jordan is chief economist
of the boards research staff.
"The business cycle, in the old
sense" he said, ''is a personifcation
of the ignorance and lack of restraint
of business men themselves, and it can
be cured only when they cure them
selves of these qualities"
Other speakers accepted this view,
which they based on the superior form
of organization among business men.
