DETROIT-"Good transportation as
low as $35; never before such bar
gainSl"
"A good car for SIS and less; new
tires and new battery"
The first statement Is part Of dis
play advertisement by one of the lead
ing automobile dealers. The second Is
a radio announcer's contribution to the
effort of automobile dealers to dispose
of traded-in machines.
Taken together, the two statements
indicate q condition that seemingly re-
flutes the contention voiced In some
quarters that the automotive industry
does not have a serious used car
problem"
An Amazing Fact.
It Is one of the truly amazing facts
of the automotive industry, however,
that some of its products go on for
ever" Research shows numerous "cre-
ations" Of the early COS still capable
of locomotion; 1t shows further that
the power plants Of many early Gay
motor cars are now doing service on
farms as power plants.
Nevertheless, that q vehicle OF the
present generation can reach the con-
ciition suggested by a price OF $35 and
still be capable of operation Is trib-
ute to the automotive genius Of today,
regardless of the condition OF the We
hicle.

DETROIT, Mich, July 13.-Since q
flight by o plane powered with . Pack
ard-built Diesel engine Of new and Sc
cret design several weeks ago the
Packard Motor Co. has been receiving
hundreds Of letters daily from people
inquiring II Diesel engines eventually
are to be used in motor cars as well as
in planes.
An answer was sought from Col. J.
G.. Vincent, Packard vice president, In
charge of engineering, who three weeks
ago received from the University of
Michigan the degree of master Of en-
cheering in recognition Of long years
In the automotive industry, including
a share In the design Of the Liberty
motor.
The reason the Packard Co. has been
receiving the inquiries is that q report
got abroad Diesel engine use might
revolutionize automobile operation be-
cause of large economy through the use
Of crude Oil instead of gasoline as fuel
When the plane fight was made it was
said the cost Of the oil consumed was
only IS per cent of the cost Of gasoline
for the same distance.
Col. Vincent expressed large doubt
that there would be any such result as
far as the motor car Is concerned.
IlS S81u, 4uC1 CCOlAO4ly 70 Va
secondary interest to the man who buys
q higher-priced car today. II 1t were
possible at once to equip all cars with
Diesel engines doubt II there would
be much, If any, difference in the cost
Of oil as fuel. 1t might not prove any
cheaper than gasoline, due to distr1bu-
ton conditions. Many of US can re-
member when gasoline was considered
merely q by-product OF kerosene, with
small value commercially.
Then, as another phase, we must re-
member that the Diesel engine is q
high-compresSion motor in which the
COMPRESSION Is constant at something
like 500 pounds to the square inch. One
of the difficulties in Diesel use for mo-
tor cars as we have them now, with
fast acceleration and SmoothnesS
through an entire speed range, would
be to make this compression variable
and flexible enough to allow for start
ing and stopping interference at low
speeds.
Frequent Changes Demanded.
with the frequent changes demand
ed by modern traf1lc, the average gaso-
line engine operating at slower speeds
requires only 80 to so pounds TO the
square inch of compression and runs
up as high as 80 at full speed"
In an airplane, with the speed much
higher but more constant, Col. Vincent
explained, the compression at 500
pounds an inch largely sustains itself.
Then" he added, there is engine
odor, which has been O fault in Diesel
power plants we have had. The Diesel
in starting gives out pun of oily smoke
which in the airplane is quickly dissi-

pated by sped and rush Of air. In a
car It might not be easy to get nd Of.
ITO make the Diesel practical for
cars also would require enormous ny.
wheels on the engines. In plane the
propeller serves as fywheel and solves
this. In an automobile this becomes q
problem because body designs are such
nowadays as to leave no room for larger
dywheels. The larger hywheel would
have to be put on a Diesel motor car
engine to get balanced 6exibility. Lack
OF nexibility Is Of no great moment in
a boat or airplane engine, but it ID vital
to the car"
Another point Col. Vincent made was
the comparatively slow crank shaft
speed required for Diesels. He said
that in the Diesel the revolutions per
minute had been built up to range
between 1900 and 1000, which is fast
for this type Of engine. The c@erage
revolutions per minute demanded for
the preSent-day motor car engine Is
$500 to 1000.
Erecting 100000 Building.
So much for the present status Of
the Diesel In relation TO automobiles.
The atrplane angle Is something else.
The possibilities Of Diesel use In air
craft and the work Packard Is doing on
1t may be judged by the fact that this
branch Of the company's activities will
soon be housed by itself in 100000
building.
Col. Vincent was asked to discuss
front-wheel drive and the chance it
Is to have In cars for next year and
those to follow. His answer was based
on an examination and trial of 'front.'
drive racer he made in 1925. after he
had bought for the Packard Co. the
front-drive Miller car which scored a
near victory In the Indianapolis race
that year. This car came in second.
the closest any front-driye ever came
to winning on the Indiana speedway.
Col. Vincent said the front-drive
principle for passenger car work might
prove OF some value to the sport car
division Of the business, but that its
possibilities were pretty well limited to
that fleld. Such cars built for passen-
ger work require 10 to II inches more
wheel base than the rear-drive cars,
Col. Vincent said, and their turning
radius is heightened in greater pro-
portion than that, because there Is so
much linkage to "cramp' in turning.
The short-drive shafts In front and
their angularity make the engine ex-
ert four or i've times the torque or
twisting force exerted by the rear drive
engines.
Reasons like these, Col. Vincent be-
lieves, limit the scope of front drive to
the larger wheel base division and cut
it on from the small car field and
therefore volume output. He comedies
the factor Of safety In turning, due to
less likelihood to skid, but he questions
front-drive ability to cope with rear
drive In either hill climbing or In trav-
cling rough or tortuouS roads.

LOW-POWER CARS.

More than IS per cent of all cars
registered In Great Britain are less
than II horsepower, according to an
analysis made by the Society Of Motor
Manufacturers and Traders, Ltd, Of
London for 1928.
OF all the cars in use in the United
Kingdom 20 per cent have 12-horse-
power engines, the next largest class
being the 14-horsepower cars, which
constitute 1875 per cent Of the total
number. Nearly 2 per cent Of all the
cars are Horsepower or less. Cars In
England Eave heavy horsepower tax.
