GASOLINE MILEAGE
FACTOR IN ECONOMY
Observance of Rules Govern
ing Fuel Consumption Would
Save Billions, Is Claim.

DETROIT, October 5.-Millions Of
dollars could be saved annually by
the automobile -owning public through
more strict observance of the factors
that control the gasoline mileage Of
fered by the average automobile.
A gain OF from two to five miles on
the gallon of gas could be effected, on
the average, 1t was shown, If the mo-
torist paid strict attention to the ele-
ments that govern fuel consumption.
The matter Of economy has always
been factor Of the uppermost i'm
portance in the designing of cars.
Manufacturers have been doing their
utmost to make gains in the direction
IF greater mileage and now 1t is felt that
with greater cooperation from the
driver, motorists may ride millions OF
miles yearly at no extra fuel cost II
the matter of watchfulnesS can make
Sufdciently strong appeal.
Items Listed for Observation.
The majority of items to be watched
are rather obvious to the average au-
tomobile owner, but through an mad
equate appreciation of their Importance,
are commonly overlooked.
The survey sets down specifically q
number of factors which, if observed,
should increase your mileage two to
five miles to the gallon. They are:
When standing or waiting for the
light to change, don't race your motor.
When you are to make stop OF
more than a minute, turn on your
motor.
Don't drive at excessive speeds UNI
less the occasion demands. High speed
travelling burns more gas.
Remember that the faster you drive
the more gas you consume. So when
you find that you are about out of gas
it slowly and your chances for negotiat-
ing the distance will be greater.
When starting watch the choke. Don't
drive with the choke out a moment
more than necessary.
Be sure that your brakes are not drag
ging. This cuts down your mileage
Get your brakes inspected frequently.
Valves Need Attention.
Have your valves ground when they
need it.
See that the idling adjustment on
your carburetor is set at the proper
point SO that the mixture is not too
rich. If it is not at the proper point
it gives you inefficient idling perform
| ance and wastes gas.
Don't fill your gas tank full to the
| cap; some will escape through the vent
| in the cap.
Don't ride the clutch.
Watch gas line for leaks at joints
Check it periodically to see that fittings
are tight.
Be sure that spark is in fully ad-
vanced position.
Avoid excessive use of brakes in
! traffic.
Observance of these suggestions, the
survey points out, will save money for
| the motorist and add considerable
mileage to your driving and reduce the
number of necessary stops at the gaso-
| line station.

5DAY WORK WEEK
HITS AUTO OUTPUT
Figures Cited to Explain Linn
tied Production Shown by
Large Manufacturer.

DETROIT, Mich, October 5.-A
change Of operations by the largest
producer OF loW-priced automobiles
from a six to a flve-day basis, reduc-
ing this company's total output some
1900 units, was the principal factor in
lowering automobile production during
the current week, according to B. H.
Cram, president Of Grams Automobile
Reports, Inc.
Announcement of the new operating
schedule followed a reduction of en-
ployment personnel by about 5000 per-
sons. 1t is understood that this COM
pany has on hand a supply of certain
parts exceeding the requirements of as
semblies for some time, in view of the
seasonal slackening of sales anticipated
during the remainder of the year. The
release of employees and change in
operations were the result.
Other Changes Not Important.
Other changes in the operating
schedules of automobile plants during
the week were of such nature as to
produce but slight effect on the total
output. Slight reduction in output oc-
CURED at three plants manufacturing
high-priced cars and at one classed in
the medium priced field. However, a
sharp increase in schedules of another
medium priced car manufacturer, at
tendant upon the introduction Of a
new model, virtually offset these de-
creaSeS.
With dealer passenger car stocks
high, the situation in August showing
a sharp increase as compared with that
in the same month of 1928, there is
no doubt, however, that production is
the object Of acute attention by the
manufacturers. Nevertheless present
indications are that few other changes
are likely to occur in operating levels
during the remainder of the month.
Truck production during the current
week revealed no change. Operations
are at high levels and sales show little
evidence of slackening soon. However,
a seasonal decline is expected to mani
fest itself during the course OF Fall.
Exports continue good and are much
larger than in the corresponding season
of 1928
Pneumatic Tire Inventories.
Inventories of pneumatic tires are
authoritatively reported to have been
reduced somewhat during July, the first
improvement noted in the tire indus
try for many months. On July 81, in
ventories of all types of tires totaled
1898, 977, as compared with 1892, 267
on June 80. Retail tire sales have
shown a steady gain since the first Of
the current month and indications are
that September sales probably will ex-
coed those Of August. This will be an
exact reversal of conditions prevailing
heretofore, for in all previous years
consumer tire buying has reached its
peak in July and August and has
started its customary seasonal decline
in September
Despite the improved tone of the re-
tail market tire manufacturers are not
stepping up production. They are still
holding to conservative schedules and
continue to keep close watch on in
ventories.

Every business. large or small. and
every consumer Is affected directly or
indirectly by highway transportation,
which has within period of 20 years
progressed from the infant stage to
the distribution pulse of the world. ac-
cording to Walter C. White, president
of the automotive world.
Highway transportation is reducing
the cost of distribution by bulk ship
ments in heavy-duty trucks, by direct
action in relieving numerous landings
of commodities and through cutting
down the time between the purchase
and resale of commodities, thereby elm
mating excessive stock or inventory.
In every direction opportunities for
motor transportation to develop its
services are increasing. The food we eat,
the clothes we wear. the building mate
rails used in our houSes-in fact, nearly
everything that is sold Is transported on
the highway at some time during pro-
duction or distribution.
Each step in the development of
transportation and distribution since
the days of the horse and waterway has
been toward greater fieXibility and
speed. A system to provide the manu-
facturer, wholesaler jobber and mer-
chant with quick turnover at profit.
Today the merchant is but a tele-
phone call away from his source OF
supply. and the manufacturer knows
that he can readily receive raw material
on minutes notice.
Motorized Fleets Operate.
Every hour of the day and night
motorized fleets are travelling the high
ways, bringing the raw material and
carving away the finished product.
Material bins are only filled to the pro-
duction demand and the merchants
shelves are not groaning under the
weight of immovable merchandise.
When demand makes move all lines
Of business have been prepared. due to
the standardization of distribution
agencies-the motorized fleet plying be-
tween them and skirting away on the
short haul. relieving railway terminals
Of congestion and costly delays
In every turn of the wheel along the
highway business is being represented,
the public is being served.
There is the danger, however, that
this progress may be hampered by
highway regulation and taxation to the
point of vanishing profits. Production
costs have been cut to the minimum
and distribution costs can be brought
to a lower level providing that regu-
latory bodies and commissions see in
motorized transportation the service 1t
Is rendering the public and provide
means whereby motor equipment can
be operated with as little restraint pos
sible.
Realizing early in transportation ex-
panSion that whatever burden was
placed upon operators through in
creased taxes and regulatory legislation
would eventually pass along to the con-
sumner the operators and manufacturers
took the first steps toward placing dis
tribution in competent hands.
The manufacturers have pointed out
from time to time that highway trans
portation and distribution was too big,
too diversified to be governed haphaz-
ardly. They sought, and to a great
degree were successful, in having regu-
lation of common carrier equipment

AUTO TIRE AS FACTOR.
Best Is Estimated Only as Good as
Inner Tube.

The finest automobile tire in the
world is only as good as its inner tube.
This assertion by A. K. Dill. manager
of the technical service department OF
a rubber company, emphasizes the need
for the average motorist to exercise as
close. or closer, supervision over the in
ner tubes on his car as over the castings:
An automobile is actually supported
by the air cushion contained within the
inner tubes OF it's tires--llot by the rub
Der and fabric of which the tire is con-
Structed. This fact is oftentimes dem
onstrated when, intentionally or other
wise, tire is driven fiat and IS quickly
ruined.

Method to Conserve Gas.

If your gas is running low and you
need it ali to reach the next filling
station, drive slowly with as lean.
mixture as possible and feed the engine
smoothly, Jerky acceleration and sud-
den changes in speed waste gas. It
may even be wise to set the hand
throttle for Smoothness.

Don't Monkey With Carburetor.

Good advice is sometimes negative
30 unless you really are an expert don't
monkey with your carburetor. II 1t

But before blaming 1t for the trouble,
examine your spark plugs, distributor
points. battery terminals AND gas line
