WORK FOR SILENT CAR
TO REDUCE ACCIDENTS
Auto Manufacturers Find Operation
Noises Cause Crashes.

Quiet operation of an automobile
Is a vital factor in accident preven-
ton according % safety experts.
Investigation of thousands of acct
dents has proven that many mis-
haps are due to the failure of a
driver to hear warning signals
because of the noise and rumble of
his own car.
This important safety feature is
now engaging the attention of
automotive engineers, and one of
the most striking and recent results
Of their study Of this phase of
design is in the new Oldsmooile
Six recently introduced. The OldS-
mobile engineers report that they
gave particular attention to noise
and as a result have developed a
"silenced chassis" and "silenced
body interior" on the new Odds
mobile.
Nine different potential. noise
producers were given consideration
when the engineers took up this
problem, according to John G.
Wood, Oldsmobile's chief engineer.
They we're the engine, engine
mounting, clutch, contact of sheet
metal parts, contact between wires
and pipes with sheet metal,
spring shackles, the propeller shaft,
bumpers and the sheet metal dash
separating the engine from the
front seat compartment.

AUTO FIRM TO

FOR RESEARCH
Motors Corporation Plans
Story Structure
in Detroit.

DETROIT, May 16.-The Argo-
naut Realty Corporation, sub
Sldlary Of General Motors, an
nounces that bids have been asked
for relative to the construction of
an eleven-story building TO be
occupied, principally, by the Gen
eraI Motors Research Division The
building will be located on Second
Blvd, Milwaukee ana Baltimore.
and will contain approximately one
half million square feet of floor
space, including the basement
1t will occupy the entire block,
extending 210 feet on Milwaukee
and 100 feet on Baltimore. 1t will
be connected with the General
Motors Bldg. by a subway under
Milwaukee. The material to be
used will be brick with limestone
and polished granite base
On the Second Blvd. side will be
a show room two stories high; the
balance of the first and second
stories to be occupied by United
Motors Service.
The present research building, at
the rear Of the General Motors
Bldg, will be absorbed for office
purposes by General Motors Cor
poration, its divisions and sub
salaries. This building has not
met adequately the needs of the
research organization since that
division moved to Detroit from
Dayton, Ohio, three years ago. For
the last two years the research
activities have been spread over
three different buildings.
officials of General Motors Cor
poration are intensely interested in
the work of the research depart
ment, considering it one OF the
most important activities of the
corporation. The desire to bring all
of the work under one roof, in
proximity to the main Office of the
corporation, and the unSuitablenesS
of the present research building for
many of the research experiments,
prompted the decision to erect a
separate structure.

Tail Lights
BY SWEDE SWANSON

WisconSin's traffic engineer points
out that more than 60 per cent of
the 1000 motor accidents in that
State last year occurred on straight
stretches Of highway.
The number of accidents on
curves and turns continued to in
crease with increased traffic, but it
was on the straight runs that the
greater increase in accidents was
felt.
The cause for this peculiar cir
cumStance may be attributed 70
greatly increased traffic, or to reck-
less speeding on congested roads.
But the fact that accidents hap
pened less often on curves than on
Straightaways would tend to prove
that drivers are more careful.
What this condition resolves itself
to- therefore, is the problem of pro-
vidlng sufficient room for the in
creasing number of automobiles On
the highways.
1t is the narrow road that makes
for congestion, Just as much as the
Overab,ndance OF vehicles on that
road. The slow progress on such
roads, causing initiated tempera-
mentS among motorists, is bound to
produce accidents.
In such event, the curve is safer
than the straight stretch, where the
impatient driver takes a chance to
relieve his feelings.
The solution lies in widening the
roads, especially those that diyerge
Immediately out of city.
Congestion is merely matter of
relatively. So is liability to accident.
Widen the highways, decrease con-
gestion and lower the accident rate.
Keeping dirt out Of the vacuum
tank is part of the process of keep
ing on the move. Dirt in the
vacuum tank fapper valve can cause
more trouble for the inexperienced
than a little dirt in the carburetor.
The flapper valve controls the
flow of gasoline from the upper to
the lower chamber of the vacuum
tank. When sufficient gasoline has
been sucked into the upper tank a
float arises and, in doing so, controls
two valves.
One stops the suction while the
other admits air. The gasoline then
flows through a flapper valve to
the chamber below from where it
feeds by gravity to the Garburetor.
If dirt lodges in this flapper valve
it is obvious that when the time
comes for the upper chamber to be
ref1lled air is sucked through this
valve instead of gasoline being
drawn from the rear tank.

for granted that their money troubles
were over for the present.
The opening was only moderately
higher, but the market gathered strength
as the day went on. Stocks long neg

order shares. Montgomery Ward and
Sears Roebuck. International Paper

the front.
The standard stocks, steel. General
Motors and General Electric made
their best prices In the afternoon. One
block of 23.500 shares of United States
Steel was taken at $50. after which the
quotation went higher. The promi-
flerce accorded steel ENCOURAGED buying
elsewhere In the list.
Metal stocks were among the features.

large short interest. shot up from to 4
points. Greene Cananea was taken up
again and advanced some points at

American Smelling g. Refining was
slightly higher. Kennecott, at 80. was

all time. Patino Mines was another
favorite of the day
Early In the session United States
Steel and one or two of the independ-
ents were In active demand. but the
price eased of later. General Motors
opened a point and q half higher and
later added to the gain. Chrysler was
strong at approximately its best price
Hudson was actively bought for time.

BISHOP FROM TEXAS
ADDRESSES ROTARY
Prelate Speaks on -Four Forms
and Responsibility at
Luncheon.

Work and service is the keynote OF
Rotary, Right Reg. Clinton S, Quin,
Episcopal bishop coadjutator of Texas
and former president of the Rotary Club
of Boston. told about 200 members and
guests of the local club at a luncheon
yesterday at the Willard Hotel.
Bishop Ouin spoke on the -Four
Forms of Rotary" He said that the
path toward the ideal of Rotary is di-
vided into four steps-"inform, con-
form, transform and perform" The
Rotarian must inform himself as to the
rules and principles of the organiza-
ton, he declared, and then conform to
these rules. The next step, according
to the bishop, is the transformation
that should take place in man who is
informed and conforms. The last step
was performance. The only way Ro-
tarians can effectively reply TO their
critics, Bishop Quin declared. is by
serving their fellows. The individual
responsibility of each Rotarian was
emphasized.
The speaker was introduced by the
chaplain of the club, Rev. Charles
Warner, and the president, George
Whitwell, presided.

PUBLIC UTILITIES
NAT|ONAL|z|NG HIT
BaItimorean Tells Investment
Bankers Meeting About
Private Ownership.
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., october 10
III the effort to nationalize public
utilities is successful, then great
calamity will have fallen upon the
country" declared John P. Baer OF
. Baltimore. in making the report Of the
public service securities committee be-
fore the Investment Bankers Associs-
ton of America in convention yesterday.
Mr.. Baer said that the committee
upheld to the fullest extent the private
ownership of public utilities as bene-
fetal to the best interests of the public
and believed that the utility corpora
tons are honestly managed and are
one of the forces of industry which has
made America great
The industry has nothing To fear,
he stated, from a non political, fact
finding investigation and approves all
educational work whether by way Of
news articles or by way Of paid adver-
tisements. or by any other fair means
provided the subject matter is presented
truthfully and fearlessly The public
management can be depended upon to
discourage any effort to include in their
educational program ambiguous state
ments that may lead or may convey
false impression"
The report predicted that the next
few years would see an even greater
development in the electric light and
power industry than in any other pre-
vious period. 1T is our opinion added
Mr.. Baer. that the continued trend
toward mergers and consultations is
desirable. for it tends to link up isolated
plants into greater inter-connected sys-
TENS with improved service and reduced
rates"
