 To Show Gains in 1930

Four significant events that have taken place within the past few days are interpreted by R. F. Fer suson, president of $ 6, F Mot or Sales, as tangible evidence that business conditions have actually reached the point where the auto motive industry may definitely count upon d larger volume of busi. ness during the coming year than Vas transacted during 1929. Thls applied he says to all branches of the busincss-pass cars, trucks and buses.

Safety in New
 De Soto Eight

'The growing tendency on the part of traffic authorities to IT, crease rather than restrict automo- | bile speed limits on boulevards an | highways has made safety q more important factor than ever before. says John E. Moran local De Soto dealer.
 "Alrcady some communities have established minimum speed reguld- tions, rather than maximum. an'l ticket the slow driver instead of tue fast one in order to lesson traffic hurry. but speed with care, is the rule. Reckless. not fast driving, ca. rics a penalty.
 "Thc modern trend in traffic con- trol has been anticipated by De Soto engineers. As a result. some important safety features are en- bodied in the new Dc Soto Straight Eight models.
 The new steel body on the De Soto Straight Eight, ana the man. ner of attaching it to the chassis, provide a much safer and more sure-footed car than the older method of body construction. Much ody-Wcight has been done away with and the center of gravity lowered.
 Road clearance has not been sacrificcd-improved body constrUc- tion alone is responsible for lower ing the center of gravity to q point where it would be difficult indeed to upset one of these cars.

1 Tt has always been tho earn 5t | ambition of the Nash factories to | build motor cars so well that any one who made comparison woul l find them more desirable" says A. G. Hawker president of local Na5u organization.
 "A year ago, Nash announced the Nash 400" with features of ad- vanced design which we considered vital to the improvement and in- creased enjoyment of motoring.
 Its record, in the months that followed, was q record of success that far surpassed our most onthus1- astic estimate. Sale have exceeded by tens of thousands of cars, tha sales during any similar period of Nash history.
 Now Nash has built the n2w "4o0''-Thc 1880 Nash "4O0''-- 10 succeed that first "4oo" of which we think and speak with so much pride.
 These new series Of Nash motor cars, in our opinion, are most worthy to carry forward the name Nash and the name "400"-they are brilliant successors to q great sue cess.
 Every new feature. and there arc many new features. adds som2- thing definitely finer to tho efficicI- cy and enjoyment of motoring.
 With the introduction of the Nash Twin-lsnition Eight, Nash presents the product of more than three years intensive study and cX- pertinent of Nash engineers,

Out of sight in the radiatorA of Studebaker Presidents and CoLl- mander Flights is q small automatA l which watches constant yto assur. ideal performance in every kind ol weather without any supervision on the part of the driver, accord ing to F. J. Albro Studebakcr- Ef. skin dealer here. The mechanical sentry in question is an ingenious little thermostat controlling the radiator shutters with which Pres ident and Commander Fights arc now equipped.
 "The shutters selected by Stude- baker quickly attain and constantly maintain the most efficient opera1- ing temperatures. When the motor is cold as in starting out first thing in the morning, the shutters re- main closed. As the motor warns up, the shutters open little by lit tie admitting just enough cold air to keep the engine from rising be- yond the temperature at which it functions best.
 Every change in temperature re- acts instantly On the thermostlt, which operates without the knowi- edge or effort of the driver. The StudebakCr owner thus may drive in any sort of weather always sue that his engine is adequately guard ed for ideal performance.

 Fellow Prisoner Claims
BY \ FELLOW PRISONER

Preposterous as the idea sounds, there came in time to be built up, in the District of Columbia jail, while Harry r. Sinclair was con- fined there. a group of other pris- oners who were known as Sin clair's attendants
 Sinclair certainly did at not lack special services. When he cntere l the jail he was allowed 10 take in with him a huge roll Of bills, and he made the most ot it.
 Two of "Snclair's attendant = were, respectively. a forgcs and aa automobile thief They took his dtc- pe-tion in response to his hwy fan mail" A third prisoner acted as his valet, polishing his shoo3 daily and keeping his clothes in or der. Then, as has been mentioned, there were those who looked after his culinary wants.
 As a valet, Sinclair had the ser vices of none other than Horbel. Hoover! But this Herbert Hoover was an amiable colorcd man Who vas doing time for tampering with a safe. Hoover's satisfaction in his assignment showed itself in per- pctual grin.
 Among the group Of colore1 trusties who came in contact with the multinillionairc prisoner daily. there was il good deal of rivalr, concerning priority in the right to attend him.
 They calculated their position in line according to the day they had entered jail, figuring it out right down 10 the hour and minute.
 T came in Tuesday at l1:S0 a. m, and you didn't get in until attc~- neon" one would tell another. So hc would take his place in liae ahead of the other.
 Those who had the chance to serve Sinclair made extra efforts 10 do a good job, while the ordinary prisoner, possessed of neither funds nor distinction, would have difti- culty in getting the ordcrlics or ae- ttndants 10 grant the slightest fGNor.

by a department that has engineers

by a department that has engineers to solve the various problems of proper and regular collection. I would strongly urge the common council to make the garbage collec- ton appropriation special appro- riation, or transfer it to an engineer ins department.
 Tt will be necessary, in the near future, for the city of New Britain to increa SC our appropriation in order to extend our activities. as we are unable to do so with an appropria- ton of s36,35o. exclusive of garbage collection, being 45 cents per capita.
 Recommendations
 "At a future date, the following mentioned items will be necessary for the betterment of health condi- tions in this city:
 "G) An isolation hospital where patients Tn crowded homes can te removed and properly isolated, thereby preventing the spread of the disease 10 other members Of the family: also where patients requiring surgical attention can he taken care o(. as general hospitals do not accept such cases.
 "(2) A diphthoria immunizatlon plan whereby the city would provide l facilities to immunize children m those families that are financially unable 10 pay for this protective measure.
 "(3) The inauguration of SCOT ing system Of dairles and farms sup plying milk to this city, a5 1t IS of importance to supervise the milk supply from it's source to the con- sinner.
 "(4 The municipal collection Of refuse would be a step forward IF our efforts to maintain clean city. | l. is obvious that when landlords and tenants have to pay q certain amount for removal Of same. there IS q tendency to neglect this inn portant matter, consequently. sever- al yards become dumping grounds, which are not only detrimental 10 health. but are unslght'y. "(5H l strongly urge the mem- bers ot the board 10 use thelr ln- | fuencc to have the garbage collec- ton expenditure as a special appro- priation. so as not 10 be included Ill | the board of health budget.
 "I wish 10 thank the board of health commissioners for their courtesy and cooperation, and to eA- tend to the members of the health department my sincere thanks for their efficiency and loyalty.

closely for economy and convent ence. The municipality reflects the efforts expended by the various groups in keeping their individual units in sanitary condition so that the community may feel that its city IS well kept. In accomplishing this possibility is placed on every house owner or tenant, mer- cantile establishment. and industrial superintendent. They must feel that this IS their city and they are the interested parties. If they wish to have the city clean and prosperous, each should put his own house in order and demand that his neigh bor do likewise.
 Smoke nuisanCes and unsanitary conditions are amenable to correc- ton and will rot give cause for com plaint If the right civic spirit is shown.

This regulation safeguards our citi- zens from meats from diseased cat tie that would otherwise be con- sumed. All meats fit for consump- ton are examined and stamped be- fore they are put on the market.
