SUMMARY

The barometric pressure still con-
tinues rather high over The greater
portion OF the United States, but
has fallen somewhat over the Cana
dian Northwest and adjacent states
and over the far Southwest. AS a
result temperatures have risen de-
cidedly over the n~orth-central states
and risen more or less throughout
the central and south-central por-
tons of the country since last re-
port, and were, therefore, not far
from the seasonal average practi-
cally throughout the country this
morning. Light rains occurred in
south Texas within the las % hours,
while elsewhere in the country the
weather was mostly fair to partly
cloudy.

To give the individual car distine- tien increasingly demanded by motog- i.ts and at the same time retain the cost advantages of mass production is che problem long tried by the automo- bile industry, and now solved by Hud- won-Essex engineers, according to an- nouncement of the Hudson Motor Car Company Continued develop xnent, to meet the expressed demand of the public, has marked the pro- xress of the automotive industry. It. most important achievement to date has been the development Of mass vToaauetion of cars, at almost incred- Fhie speed. with every ear manufac- tured to constantly more exacting specification laid down by engineers, to insure perfect it of every working part and consequent smoothness of operation, economy and long life.

EASIEST CONTROL
Nash Adop,s marles Steering Gear

Perfect steering control was ma

 ing gear, employed on the powerful
 British car. which is the same type az
 that used on Nash Advanced Six
 400" models, gave him "the com
 pletext satisfaction.
 Nash Motors Company engineers followed the performance Of tnis steering system and the Majors mas terly use of it with intense interest They see in his flashing success another powerful illustration of the importance that sturdy, dependable and highly sensitive steering systems play in modern motoring and sale guarding the lives of all drivers. For the slightest Reflection from the course at that terrible speed spelled certain death for the gallant pilot.
 The average motorist, they point out. will never have to subject hls steering system to the awful strain Il had to undergo in the beach speed trials, but the drivers of Nash Ad- vaneed Six "40O" models are doubiy secure in the knowledge that the same type of Maries gear that brought Segrave through is used in these famous stock ears. This system, which supplies the new Nash cars with ths easiest steering control so far achiev- ed, was developed to it's present per lection through the cooperation Of Nash and Gemmer Manufacturing Company engineers. Chief Engin- eers of The Nash Motor Company, worked personally with Gemmer ex- perts in improving and perfecting the Marles gear, and share in the credit for it's remarkable efficiency.
 Steering the powerful special racers over the Daytona course at nearly four miles a minute requires absolute accuracy on the part of the steering gear. Maj Segrave employed rifle sights for his run and aimed the Cold en arrow as though it were high calibre projectile He had red bulls eye lights suspended over the middle of the course and guided through them by two special sights. One was a device of crossed wires set in cir cle on the nose of the ear which cen- tered with 6 naked rife sight on the cowi. He declared after the run that the lights saved him from disaster when he ran through eleven patches of water which sent his tires blowing a half inch into loose sand. It was here that the steering system on the Gold en Arrow did its heroic work and brought the great car to a speed rec ord that may never be equaled, owing to the American Automobile Asso- cations decision to halt all further speed trials this year and the general feeling against this type of test.

In other words, there was nothing al all to mark one buyers car as representing his individual taste It was precisely like his neighbor's that had come off the same assembly line.
 Important Changes
 Public demand has made important changes necessary Today's car must meet the individuals desire for distin- ton. This demand has been met by the development of the wide range of colors now available in paint jobs, with body colors, stripinge and wheels to harmonize in tint, and in the color and the material of upholstery fabric. Originally, individual taste could be satisfied only by the buyers of high priced cars, who were willing not only to spend large sums of money to get a distinctive ear but to wait for two weeks, if necessary, to have the ear slowly colored and upholstered to their order
 Individuality in motor cars used to mean extra money, plus extra length of delivery time. The manufacturers have faced and solved this problem,

Il statement Of General M0t0ry' boHcy
BY alfred P: Sb4n, E:, President

Ibis week the public is visiting the Automobile
Show to see new models.
Suppose you could drop a curtain over the 1929
Show and raise it Immediately upon the show of
last year. How wildly the progressive changes
would then appear!
Go back ten years, or five years, or even three,
and the contrasts are amazing. So fast have the
Improvements followed one another that every
year has offered you more for your automobile
dollar-in performance, in comfort, in safety, in
beauty and in style. Never was that fact quite SO
impressive as in the cars now on display.
This is real progress, and inevitably General
Motors has been leader in it. You cannot have
hundreds of engineers, in organization, think
ing and working day and night, without knowing
more about making automobiles than was known
the year before You cannot have great Research
Laboratories, the Proving Ground and the un-
matched resources and skill of Fisher Body with
out developing constantly better processes and

new ideas. The patronage of the public makes
possible all this machinery of betterment; so the
public is entitled to each Improvement as promptly
as it has been proved.
In this way came the selfstarter, the closed
body, durable Duco finish, four wheel brakes. BY
the same process one of the remarkable feats in
industrial history has just been effected: Chevrolet
has been transformed into asix-cylnder car within
the price range of the four = almost overnight.
Similarly, the new brakes and transmissions of
Cadillac and LaSae are fundamental improve
ment; while the new models of Buick, Oldsmobile,
Oakland and Pontiac all represent values that
could not have been offered before
Such progress, born of the inherent ambition
of an organization of active minds to do better
and to give more is of benefit to ALL 1t offers you
more for your money with each succeeding year.
1t gives you more value for your present car when
you trade it in. This is real progress.
This iS orr nOlicv
