Plymouth Prices
 Cause Sensation

Instant public response reported from every city i'll the country has stamped the recent sensational price reductions of s65 to s70 on the Plymouth car as the years most interesting development in the au- tomobile industry.
 The Chrysler- built Plymouth is now one of the lowest priced cars in the world. and it's entrance into this market has resulted not only in attracting thousands of persons to Plymouth, Chrysler, Dodge and Dc Soto showrooms from coast to coast but also in an immediat e stimulus to sales. Plymouth produc- ton schedules are being materially advanced.
 Within the industry this move on the part of Chrysler Motors has commanded top-most interest. In business and financial circles the new low prices, together with the fact that the Plymouth will soon be sold and serviced by more than 10000 Chrysler, Dodge and De Soto dealers throughout the Unit ed States and Canada, is regarded as one Of the most strategic mer- chandising events that has been announced in the automobile in dustry for several years and indi- cates the confidence with which Chrysler Motors views the future.

Two Test Runs
 Support Claims

Two test runs made on the Pa cfic coast during last week graph ically demonstrate the ability of the new 1o50 Willys Six to meet the claims made by Willys-Over- land, Inc, as 70 the speed both in second and high gear possible with this car.
 The first run, with the transmits sion locked in second gear, was made from Los Angeles to San Diego. a distance of 1S2 miles, with Eddie Pullen, eX-champion dirt track and road driver, as pilot at the wheel, the Willys Six cover ed this distance in two hours and 57 minutes for an average speed of 44.75 miles an hour.
 Allowing for city traffic and ob- servance of traffic and road regu!a- tions in towns such as Santa Fc Springs, Santa Ana, Tustin, Cap istrano and Oceanside. the mark indicates that the advertised sec ond speed of 4S miles an hour is a practical possibility and that even punishing the motor ana tr ansmission with 1s2 miles at top second speed has no ill effect upon the working mechanism.

Motorists Advised to
 Clean Cooling Systems

The American Automobile Asso- citation, in an official bulletin just issued, gives warning that budding flowers and the sweet twitter ot woodland birds are the occasior for something more than moon gazing.
 Procrastination in giving the en- tire cooling system thorough spring house cleaning, the bulletin states, will result in trouble and expense comparable to that expert enced by thousands of motorists who last fall let cold weather catch them unprepaled. The advent Of warm weather, like the approach Of winter. should be warning to the automobile owner to act.
 In addition to removing anti freeze and cleaning the cooling system, winter oil should be changed 10 a spring grade light lubricants should be replaced in the transmission and rear end by grease suitable for warmer temperatures the carburetor should be read- justed and if the generator charg- ing rate was set up last fall, t should be reduced for lighter loads
