GAS PR|CEF|X|NG
DENIED TO STATE
Supreme Court Rules Ten
nessee Cannot Set Cost
of Motor Fuel.

The right of a State to regulate the
sales price of gasoline, a question of
vital interest to the motorist of the
country, was denied this week by the
United States Supreme Court, according
to the legal department Of the Ameri-
can Motorists Association. The decision
settles finally the question of a States
authority, under its police power, to fix
gasoline prices.
The question Of a States power to
regulate gasoline prices came before the
court in a Tennessee case, and involved
directly the constitutionality of a
statute enacted by the Legislature of
that State setting up a compulsory Ii
cenSing system for gasoline sales agen-
cies and compelling such agencies to dis
pense gasoline at prices determined by
State officials. Failure to comply with
the statute was made punishable by
revocation of the license and by fine VI
imprisonment.
Contending that the statute was un-
constitutional because it violated The
! due process Of law clause of the four
tenth amendment of the Federal Con-
stitution, the oil companies obtained an
injunction from a Federal court enjoin-
ing the enforcement of the price fixing
law. The State appealed.
UNFOLDING the contention Of the oil
companies, the Supreme Court declared
that despite the fact that gasoline is
necessary and indispensable in carrying
on commercial and other activities in
the State, the commodity is not affect
ed with a public interest" and, there
fore, belongs to that general class OF
commodities which are not properly the
subjects of statutory price-fiXing.

WOMEN COMPELLED
REF|NEMENTS
Windshield Marked Beginning
of Feminine Influence
on Designs.

The automobile of today would be an
excellent racing car, probably little
more, had it not been for the un-
deniable influence of the oma in
motor a design not only in more
recent years but in the early days of
the industry, according to Thomas E.
Sarrard, an automobile salesman.
Feminine America, in fact, has been
responsible, either directly or indirectly,
for practically every improvement and
refinement in the comfort and appear
nee of the automobile since the time
when even the finest car frightened
horses as it roared its way down the
road. Moreover, it is none the less
startling to attribute to Milady'S de-
mands and requirements the remark
able ease of handling and fiexibility Of
present day automobiles.
Early in the history Of the auto
mobile industry, when cumbersome
chain drives, uncomfortable bucket
| seats and the like made the motor car
an unwieldy affair, feminine In
f1uence manifested itself. Probably the
first improvement that can be attri-
buted directly to the woman was the
windshield, an invention which va
unquestionably the result of the fash
ion of the period. Women of that
! long-haired era doubtless were dis
gusted with the "horseless buggy ride"
that left them with their carefully
| coiled and high-piled coifures wind
blown and torn. Came, therefore, the
automobile windshield.
Countless other inventions followed
to satisfy the dictates Of the feminine
sex. There were improvements made
in regard to comfort and improve
ments made in regard to sight
illness, for women demanded cars that
were comfortable as well as attractive
| and finely appointed. They paid scant
attention to mechanical improvements
! and what was under the hood matter
ed little as long as the hood was good
looking.
The closed car most assuredly was
built SO that the passenger
| could travel in comfort no matter what
the weather. The first closed cars
were two-door affairs and it was not
until Milady again asserted herself
that four doors were included for her
added convenience.

Few Premeditated Cases.

From what I have been able to learn
from talking to various prisoners charg-
ed with this crime, and from victims,
witnesses, etc, 1 have come to h con-
clusion that there are very few cases
of p~remeditated hit and run; by this
I mean to say that there are very few
otherwise honest people who have made
up their minds in advance that in the
event they were to have an accident
or strike some pcdeStrian-that they
would attempt to escape without max
ing their identity known if possible.
Most of them are overtaken by panic
or cowardice at the very moment of
impact. and their attempts to escape
are actuated by instinct rather than
calm reasoning. 1t is, indeed, a fact
that on second thought most of them
return and give themselves up to the
proper authorities within a short time
afterward. and in many of these in

PRODUCTION
FOR WEEK LOW
Manufacturers Are Making
Deliveries of New Models
to Dealers.

Passenger car production has appar-
emily reached its low point for the year
during the past week, and operations
on the part of nearly all manufacturers
will be resumed On an increasingly
heavy scale beginning January 7 and
continuing throughout the balance of
the month, according to B. H. Cram,
president Of Grams Automotive Re-
ports, Inc.
January schedules will be probably
closely adhered to. with the result that
there is every reason to expect total
passenger car output for this month
will establish a new record for Janu-
airy. Sales are firm and show but little
change from the favorable condition
which existed during the past month.
Manufacturers are making deliveries to
dealers in an increasing volume on new
models, which will shortly be displayed
in all sections of the country.
Interest in the automotive market
has been considerably stimulated by the
New York show. and this is expected
to result in an influx of orders for i'm
mediate delivery, thereby maintaining
retail sales for the month at a high
seasonal level.
The interruption made by the holi-
days and suspended activities for in
ventory have cut down commercial OUT

dition, however, output is seasonally
high, and will probably show but little
variation from that of December. Sales
are holding up well, but because prob
ably fewer new models are to be n
nounced by this branch of the industry
than in the passenger car division the
same sales stimulation will be lacking
and deliveries are not expected to in
crease quite sc rapidly.
Tire manufacturers reduced output
considerably last week to allow the TAX
ing of inventory. Schedules will not
be stepped up again for approximately
a week or 10 days. Crude rubber prices
are unchanged, and the consumption
increase noted in 1923 is expected to
continue during 1929. Manufacturers
requirements will be heavy and a stable
market is anticipated. Mail-order
houses recently announced price reduce
lions from II to z per cent, and this
action is expected to bring some revi-
sion in prices on the part of the regu-
lar tire manufacturers. Consumer

present time, with a continued seasonal

demand for comfort in speed, but
whether it will be at variance with
the rules of stream lining for combat

Many Lesser Trends.
Many lesser trends engaged the at
tention of students of the American
automobile, and there were five foreign
cars at the palace to stimulate further
discussion. One of the foreign jobs
carried a seven-horsepower engine
small enough to fit into a night bag,
while the trick hood of an English ma
chine revealed a twin six Knight sleeve
valve power plant.
Just one of the detailed improvements
few noticed was the squeakless brakes
on one of the new straight Fights. But
America was interested in going-not
stopping!
Nor does interest center entirely in
desire to know how fast the new jobs
will go. Many wisely ask: How long
will they go fast?" And the answer to
this lies in the hundred. and one de-
tailed improvements, which most peo-
pie saw at the show in a casual way

Auto Exports Show Increase.

Another substantial gain in the sale
of American automobiles and trucks
abroad is shown in a bulletin on "OuI
World Trade" just issued by the for
eign commerce department of the
Chamber of Commerce Of the United
States.
Shipments abroad of passenger cars
and trucks totaled 384,0 O in the first
nine months of the year, the report
points out. This represents a gain OF
~ per cent over 1927, and 90 per cent
above the average for the corresponding
period in the five previous years.

Auto Production Hits Peak.

The automotive and construction in
dustries continued throughout 1928 to
be the backlog of Americas prosperity,
according to the Department of Com
merce. Automobile production was
larger than in any earlier year and
contracts for future construction showed
a substantial growth. The activity
of these industries has resulted in a
greatly increased demand for many
related products. such as steel, cement,
rubber tires and refined petroleum.

Probably the most despised and gen.
orally condemned type of criminal ex-
listing today is the so-called "hit-and-
run" driver.
Newspapers, judges, law-enforcing Of
fcers and the public generally never fail
to excoriate this most despicable of
criminals. Rarely is he ever shown the
least leniency when apprehended, and
rarer still does any one have a word or
look of sympathy for him when he is
caught and is forced to face the con-
sequences of his act.
Even the most hardened murderer or
highwayman will often have some one
to try to condone their acts-to plead
that they were motivated by overpower-
ing passion, or that wrongs they had
suffered may have temporarily unhinged
their minds, or that they and their
loved ones were faced by dire poverty
but how rare is 1t for any one to seek
an excuse for the hit-and-run driver.

people who reason thus might we'll form

Besides. how do we know that the
people who stop Immediately, either by
