CAR INDUSTRY
IS DOMINANT
TRADE Line
Organized to Evade Duties
1t Reaches Mammoth
Proportions.

TORONTO, Oct. 24-The Cana
dian motor car industry, primarily
formed to evade the heavy duties
on complete automobiles, is now one
of the largest in the dominion.
During the first eight months of
1923 the number of cars produced in
Canada amounted to 181 ,459 with a
factory value Of $116,209,341.
There are ten active motor car
factories in Canad, all in southern
Ontario. Opposite Detroit on the
Canadian side the main factories
are found. Here are Chrysler, Ford,
Gotfredson and Studebaker. Toron-
to has number of factories, there
being a branch Ford plant, Willy
Overland, Durant and Dodge fac
tories.
The other factories are at Oshawa,
Hamilton and Chatham.
Oshawa, is practically a General
Motors town, all cars of this line
except the Cadillac being manu-
featured there.
The National and International
trucks are made at Hamilton and
Chatham respectively. A few Gen
eral Motors plant to manufacture
car bodies exclusively is to be
opened soon at Regina.
Capital employed in the Canadian
motor car industry comes to nearly
$9O,0O0,00O Halt of this is employed
in land and factories. Over eleven
thousand people are employed in
the industry, drawing salaries and
wages amounting to nearly twenty
million dollars.
The industry maintains but one
Canadian car, a truck, the Gotfred-
son. Everything else is similar to
that found in the United States.
There are only a few minor diff
.erences between some of the au-
tomobiles manufactures in Canada
and those made in the United
States. The one main difference
is that Canadian cars are nearly 80
per cent of Canadian manufactured
parts.
A few high priced cars made in
Canada are put together with a
small percentage Of Canadian-made
fittings, perhaps not more than Is
per cent.

Tail Lights
BY sWEDE SWANSON

The "gyp artist" is loose in the
country and is taking his toll of
motorists right and left. He is
forming motoring clubs and insur-
ance societies, he is selling auto
motive parts, supposedly new, at
liberal discounts, and he finds his
field spreading faster than a mush-
room bed after a rain.
The time is ripe for these "gypS." "
Thousands of motorists are looking
for chances to check their ever
creasing automobile budget and
therefore jump at an opportunity
to buy things cheap.
The American Automobile Asso-
citation says car owners are paying
thousands of dollars monthly to
many f1y-by-night concerns that
are masquerading as motor clubs or
motor vehicle organizations. They
get nothing but promises from
them, for when an emergency
arises they find their CLUB" has
flown to another State.
Thousands of motorists also have
been trapped by statesmen who sell
parts at big discount on the con-
tention they are the real products
of reputable firms, and that they
have been able to make a large
reduction because Of their ire
mendous purchases. The parts
have turned out to be poor seconds
or rank limitations.
Only after such experiences have
many motorists learned the valua-
bic lesson of buying only of reput-
able firms and paying full value

BUILD TRANSMISSION
New Type Planned May
Force Clutch Out of Style.

An invention proclaimed by It's
sponsors as destined to revolution
ize one of the vital phases of auto
motive transportation is announced
as an accomplished fact.
A new type of transmission, COM
plete in one unit and entirely dis
pensing with the othodox clutch
has been developed, and will, with
some few minor ref1nementS be
aavilable to the trade in the near
future, according to the inventor
and his hackers.
This invention, the conception of
Burrell Dorsey, local engineer, is
the final evolvement of years of
experimentation. For the past year,
Mr.. Dorsey and associates have
been building the first working
model and this, SO they state, has
been built into an Auburn car
and given exhaustive road tests.
Word was received from the
United States patent office this
week, affirming one of the most
vital claims and indicating that the
device is basic in it's originality
and would, according to local patA
ent attorneys, receive very broad
patent franchise.
Associated in the development OF
the invention are Myron B. Reyn-
olds of Anderson, Ind, well known
manufacturer and financier, and
William r. Adams of this city. Mr.
Adams, who was retained a year
ago to assist in the commercial
development.
A corporation, the Speed Chang
ing Mechanism company, has been
formed to market the device and
headquarters will be maintained in
this city.

new LINE OF
OAKLAND SIS
TO SHOW HERE
Robinson-T Thompson, Inc,
to Display Features of
AII-AmeriCan.

An entire new line of Oakland
All-American SKIES, embodying ex-
elusive style and performance fea-
lures consistent with the pioneering
achievements of the Oakland Mo-
tor Gar company, will go on display
in the very near future, w. J..
Robinson, president of the Robin
son Thompson, Inc, 1925 North
Meridian street, announced today.
While no details will be disclosed
until the public showing, the new
Oakland is distinctively original
and different from any car now on
the market, Robinson stated.
Popular features of the first
All-American six will be combined
in this latest offering, with host
Of refinementS in performance and
body design that will make the car
an outstanding attraction on the
highways and boulevards Of Amer
lea during the coming months" he
said.
1.-THE new car represents the
cumulative experience of more than
twenty years of successful automo-
bile building on the part of the
Oakland Motor Car company, plus
the vast facilities of General Mo-
tors.
Into its development have gone
the pooled resources, creative in
genuity and experimental facilities
Of Oakland and General Motors
engineers, General Motors research
laboratories. General Motors prov
ing grounds and craftsmen of the
Fisher Body organization.
Particular interest attaches to
the new All-American because of
the record of the Oakland company
for having introduced into the au-
ton1otive field more new features
than any other manufacturer
Among the Oakland-pioneered adj
vances are four-wheel brakes, Duco
finish, the harmonic balancer, the
G-M-R cylinder head, foot-con-
trolled headlights, oil filter, air
cleaner and fuel pump" Robinson
said

CRACKS CAR RECORD
Durant Smashes Sales High
for 1927.

In September, 1927, Durant Mo-
tors, began in a material way, to
show the effect of w. G. Durant
being on the job. In that month,
less than six months after this
great industrial leader took over
the active management Of Durant
Motors, the mammoth plant at
Elizabeth, N. j., broke all previous
production and sales records by a
wide margin. Since then, month
after month new records have been
established, not only by the Eliza
beth IN. j. plant, but also by all
Durant plants resulting in more
motor cars being built by Durant
Motors in the first nine months Of
1928 than in the whole of 1927.
In September, 1928, just a year
from the time Durant sales and
production records began to topple,
this company commenced another
mountaineering year when is Eliz-
abeth IN. j. plant smashed the
September record of 1927 by an
increase in sales and production of
over SO per cent. In addition, the
combined production of all four
Durant plants in this same month
was well over the total of Septem-
Der, 1927.

for parts or services. 1t has always
been found cheaper in the long
run.
After lubricating the steering
gear and assembly, don't be sur
prised if there is a noticeable
amount of kick-back at the wheel.
Grease takes up the slack at vari-
Gus points and thus transfers to
the steering wheel more of the
road shock.
You are not apt to notice this
unless you use the car Immediately
after the greasing and are "car
conscious" The kick-back at the
wheel will be more pronounced the
heavier the grease used and the
cooler the weather.
1t is also more pronounced in an
old car than in a new one. The
latter is tight all over anyway and
the lubricant does not alter the
position Of the parts or the clear
ance between them TO any appre-
ciable extent.
Most of the new cars are in such
excellent adjustment that kick-back
would not be likely to develop,
greasing or no greasing.
Imports of American automobiles
into France, during the first quar-
ter of 1928, were double those of
the same period in 1927, reports the
United States Department Of Com
merce.
Only nineteen Of the forty-eight
States in the country have laws
requiring drivers licenses. The
minimum age requirement for driv-
ing an auto ranges from fourteen
years upward.
