Changes in Body Styles of
Models Featured by
Manufacturer.

Popular appreciation of a small
car built to the proportions and
beauty of the larger automobiles is
evidenced by the interest displayed
by the throngS which will visit the
exhibit of Model A Ford cars in
Indianapolis.
The roadster and other models of
the twopaSSenger type have entire
ly new body lines. The whole front
is raised. Tenders are more gen.
erouS and sweep along the body in
more artistic fashion. Nickel plate
has been replaced by rustless steel.
Wheels are smaller and sturdier
bringing the body closer to the
ground.
A rustless steel finish strip at the
iuncture of cowl and hood is new
feature and with the new lines
gives the exteriors of these cars a
dignity and SmartnesS heretofore
impossible in the low priced field.
A feature of the roadster Is the
wider seat. Another is the folding
windshield. which can be lowered TO
lie fiat on the cowl. The doors, too,

Combustion Chamber Head
Increases Output of
Power.

From an engineering standpoint.
the new Dodge cars are among the
most interesting offerings the in
dustry has to make this year.
Combining a background Of re-
liability that has become a byword
in connection with Dodge Brothers
products, with a reputation for adj
vanced engineering, the new cars
embody just about everything the
art has to offer.
Nothing is approved by the Dodge
Brothers organization that will not
go out and add to its reputation
for the dependability of its prod
ucts. Nothing has been accepted in
the new cars that does not measure
up to the latest standards Of engi-
neering excellence.
The new engines for this year in

ing sufficient compression for eff
cheney and economy as well as power

new KIND OF
CAS- APPEARS
Pure Oil Company Markets
Product.

After surveying the 1880 models,
w. G. Clar, chief technical adviser
of the Pure Oil Company, states
that for the first time in years
there has been a more radical
change in gasolines than in auto
motive design. For some years past,
compression ratios, speed and pow
er have gone through a process of
change from year to year while
character of the motor fuels avail
able remained more or less con-
slant.
With the announcement of the
1890 models, however, the reverse
is true. While motor design shows
no radical departure from last year,
revolutionary new type gasoline,
having characteristics utterly diff
ferent from any other on the mar
ket, has been developed.
The new gasoline, according TO
Clark. is refined by totally new
process, known at Gyro Vapor
Phase, and was developed by engt-
neers of the Pure Oil Company. De-
velopment of this new type gasoline
has required experimentation and
tests covering a period OF several
years and involving an expenditure
OF more than 100000 by the Pure
Oil Company.

new PROCESS USED
Graham instrument Panel
Gives Novel Effect.

A brand new effect in instrument
boards has been achieved in the
four-speed Graham Special Eight
through the use Of genuine hard
wood veneer panels nodded on
metal. The manufacturing process
is the same as in making shatter-
proof glass, a sheet of celluloid be-
ing laid between the layers and
subjected to extreme pressure at
high temperature.
Under this treatment the cellu-
loid actually flows through the
pores of the wood. The result is
surface that take a high polish and
reveals the natural hardwood grain.
Perfect symmetry of design is at
tanned by using two pieces Of veneer
cut from the same stock and fitting
the two pieces so that the pattern
of the grain matches exactly at the
center of the instrument board
Every feature of the grain in the
left half OF the panel is repeated
exactly in the right half. The wood
is so thin that, under the high pres
sure used. the dies mold the veneer
around the curved contour of the
metal. giving tie effect Of solid
wood of considerable thickness.

are wider than in the former mod
els. The roadster also can be OBJ
tanned with a rumble seat at small
cost.
A sport coupe and convertible
cabriolet, fitted with rumble seat
holding two additional passengers,
also have attracted considerable in
tereSt.
An adjustable seat in the coupe,
sport coupe and cabriolet add con-
siderably to driving comfort.
The new coupe body has French
roof quarters and new molding
treatment. Molding has been de-
signed to give the rear deck smart
panel effect.
The convertible cabriolet Is de
signed to meet the requirements of
sport-loving youth. The car is a
study in tone and artistic designing.

ing the engine sensitive to carbon.
Quick combustion of the fuel,
which materially aids the efficiency
Of the engine, has been secured by
shaping the combustion chamber to
avoid pockets. This combination Of
compression ratio and shape of head
has resulted In a f1ne-performing,
smooth engine.
Another feature OF the new Dodge
lines, which will merit attention, is
the layout of the carburetor and
manifolds. The breathing capacity
of the engine, due to the generous
size of the carburetor, and the alb
sence of restrictions in the intake
ports and manifold. has been re-
sponsible for the ability of the en-
CINE to show fine torque character
istics and to carry its horse power
curve up to high rotative speed
before the power starts to drop of.

SERVICE is EFFICIENT
Buyers of WHY'S Overland
Cars Fully Served.

With its nation wide network of
dealers, distributors and authorized
service stations, the Willys-Knight
company has one Of the largest and
most efficient organizations in the
automotive industry serving the
four major price classes. Every
station is equipped to render service
on cars from the lowest price class,
represented by the Whippet four,
to the luxury car class, in which
the Willys-Knight great six doni-
mates.
To facilitate the handling Of re-
placement parts, hundreds of parts
distributing stations are operated
through the factory branches and
distributors. These distributing sta
tons are located at strategical
points, thus guarding against I'M
necessary delay when replacement
parts are needed.
The vast Willys-Overland dealer
organization, with modern, fully
equipped service stations in every
section, has proved a great aid to
tourists who find they are never
more than short distance from
some factory representative.

visitors buying gasoline in the
state, consumed 349, 995 900 gallons
of gas in 1928, re. 2rese, i1g an in

CASH SALES ON RISE
Fewer Automobiles Sold on
Time Plan.

Bn NE4 Serrice
NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-Since 1925,
the number Of automobiles bought
on time payments in the United
States has fallen 10 per cent-from
49, to 58.1, according to the Amer
lean Motorists Association.
About 100000 new cars were sold
last year and of this number 1870
900 were sold on time. This figure
is 10 per cent smaller than in 1925.
But the percentage of used cars
sold on time fell off only slightly.
In 1925, OF all the used cars sold,
628 per cent were sold on time. In
1923 this figure had dropped to only
60 8 per cent.

A refinement on the 1890 Chevro-
let Six is the new AC gasoline gauge
mounted on the instrument board.
This instrument. one of the sew
eral advances found in the new car,
is gearless and has few working
parts. which makes it practically
trouble-free. F1uctuation of battery
voltage does not affect the gauge
reading, and there is practically no

On the contrary, we nave adopted
the middle course. and the safe one.
knowing that this year there will
continue to be a wide and profitable
market for cars OF value and OF
merit.
A safe and sound policy neces-
sarily must begin with the product.
Motor cars today must be good look
ing, they must be comfortable, they
Unjust have performance, they must
be economical, and they must be
durable.
Must Have Service
No man will buy a motor car I'M
less he knows that motor car win
give him service at minimum cost.
Some motorists demand more ap-
pearance, more comfort. more per-
Torrance than others. and there is
where the price factor enters into
the picture today, tomorrow, or ten
= years hence.
There always will be a market
for cars in all price clasSihcationS.
Certainly, the manufacturer with
line of cars covering ali markets has
the advantage, not only from his
own standpoint but also from the
standpoint of his dealers and his
owners.
The dealer likes to have a line
to suit the requirements of any
buyer VINO enters his SaIesroOm. The
buyer, on the other hand, likes to
go to the dealer who can show him
q complete line.
Next. and very important, in this
new safe and sound idea, comes the
factory dealer relationship. Facto-
ries and dealers alike are dependent
on each other.
Must Make Money
Automobile dealers must make
money if they are to continue in
business, and if they are to keep
on serving their clientele OF custom
ers. not only in the matter of new
cars. but in the matter of service.
The manufacturer who assures his
dealers of a pToflt-provided. of
~eourse. the product is correct-is. in
turn. assured of a satisfactory VOL
ume of production and sales. No
one factor holds the key to the sue
cess of the other; it is a combina-
ton Of three factOrS-the owner, the
dealer and the factory-with the
factory starting the ball rolling.
Many millions of cars line the
streets and highways Of America
today. No American family can get
along without its automobile. Two
car families are increasing steadily.
A replacement market each year is
a certainty.
Exports on Increase
Exports are broadening con-
stantly. opening new fields to the
enterprise and leadership Of Ameri-
can automobile manufacturers.
= In short. the possibilities are I'M
limited. but safe and sound pro-
cedure must be followed in taking
advantage of them.
Automobile manufacturers must
take full cognizance of the facts
and conditions as they exist today
and they must proceed according to
the dictates Of sound business judg-
ment and safe methods and policies.
