HUDSON PUSHES

for $1,000 cars in January, $1,000 IN
February and $4,000 in March or
total OF 10000 cars during the
first quarter.
This schedule Is the largest ever
planned for Hudson Essex. being

company advanced to third place AT

who insisted that the material in

Because every rule must have its

Improvement In AUTOMOBILES design
that cannot be laid directly to the
feminine influence. This was the
perfection OF four-wheel brakes,
which became necessary as traffic
increased and the automobile was
given higher speed range.

Feminine America. in fact, has
been responsible, either directly or
Indirectly, for practically every i'm.
provement and refinement in the
comfort and appearance of the auto
mobile since the time when even
the finest car frightened horses as
it roared its way down the road.
Moreover, 1t is none the less
startling TO attribute to Milady's
demands and requirements the re-
markable ease of handling and
flexibility of present day auto.
mobiles.
Early Influence
Early in the history of the auto
mobile industry, when cumbersome
chain drives. uncomfortable bucket"
seats and the like made the motor
car an unwieldly affair, feminine In
fluence manifested itself.
Probably the first improvement
that can be attributed directly to
the woman was the Windshield an
invention which was unquestioTl-
ably the result of the fashion of
the period. Women of that long
haired era doubtless were Disguised
with the "horseless buggy ride"
that left them with their carefully
coiled and high-piled coiffures wind,
blown and torn, Came, therefore,
the automobile windshield.
Countless other inventions fol
lowed to satisfy the dictates of the
feminine sex. There were improve.

and improvements made in regard

ter what the weather. The first
closed cars were two.door affairs.
and 1t was not until Milady again
asserted herself that four doors
were included for her added CON
lvenience.
The first cars had to be cranked,
which was a laborious job even
for q man. When women became
interested. however, motor ear
builders soon found that the back
straining crank would no longer do
and the self-starter was invented.
The chain drive was another fea.
ture elimination because of women.
They did not like its noise or its
looks and, in addition, it was a
bugaboo to the long skirts Of the
time.
Beauty, of course, Is the direct
result Of woman's desire for attrac-
tiveness in the automobiles she
must ride in and look at day after
day. Milady played stellar and
almost exclusive role in bringing

Seventeen American cities nave

This proves what the forlorn mo-

It calls to mind that parking cannot

Paul McNutt, national commander
Of the American Legion in an address
at Trenton, N. j., Saturday said a
whole lot in a few short sentences
when he said:
1.-The legion's interest In immigration
problems" he said, "has been stimu-
lated by the activities of certain
groups of foreign born. One Of these
groups is composed of individuals who
openly declare their allegiance to two
sovereigns; to the United States of
America of which they are naturalized
citizens, and to the sovereign of the
land whence they came. For genera
tons this nation has endured this
situation. The American Legion be-
neves that the time has come to say
to these people, If they ar going to
stay here, earn livelihood here, rear
a family here under the protection of
our institutions, that allegiance to the
United States of America must be ex-
elusive.
mo man can serve two masters. No
citizen can serve two sovereigns. No
nation can suffer divided allegiance
For those persons who secretly give
their loyalty and devotion to some other
sovereign, the American Legion says
that the gate is open and that as far
as we are concerned, we are willing to
show them the way out to stay out
forever. They do not belong here"
