In the Motor World
BY G. ADAMS HOWARD.

in other lines of manufacture
would produce equally good re-
suits. But without detracting
from the Importance of salesman
ship and the appeal which better
ment Of design and the practice
of giving more for the money have
upon any business, there is more
substantial basis for the conf
dence felt In the future of the
motor vehicle industry.
Automobile Leads.
1T Is the demonstrated fact
that the automobile has become
so great a necessity in business,
on the farm and in millions of
homes that j. is one of the last
things to be .acritlced in times Of
financial stree. Even In the past
year there as an increase In
consumption Of gasoline, indicat-
ing motor vehicle mileage. This
means that automobiles have been
wearing out and building up a
back log OF replacement demand
for an essential commodity.
1t Is the potential demand thus
indicated that seems to justify be-
lief that the industry will be
among the first to start upon the
upgrade with business revival"
It was the knowledge of this
that supported the spokesman Of
the National Automobile Chamber
of Commerce when he appeared
before the House Ways and Means
Committee IN Washington recent
ly to urge that Congress forego
the temptation to single out the
automotiVe industry for special
taxing to help balance the Fed
eral budget, warning that such
course most certainly would ham
per the economic recovery of the
whole country.

A. A. A. Statement.

The dissolution of the Automo-
bile Club of America, recently an
nounced, has led many people to
believe that the event in some
way involved the American Auto
mobile Association.
This misunderstanding was en-
couraged by the fact that papers
in some instances used the letters
A. A. A" instead of "A. C. A" in
their headlines.
The Automobile Club of Amer
ica, a historic and worthwhile
institution, was a single motor
club, with headquarters in New
York City. 1t was not affiliated
with the American Automobile
Association, which is a national
federation of motor units, with
headquarters in Washington, D. C..
Therefore, the demise of the
Automobile Club of America does
not in any way affect the Ameri-
can Automobile Association and
its 986 affiliated clubs throughout
the United States and Canada.

Advertising Increase Shown.

In further subStantiation Of the
contention of the automotive in
dustry that it is poised to lead the
Nations commerce out of the
doldrums is found in statistical
proof that recently the car manu-
featuring companies have eStab-
lished a newspaper advertising
record. The January % issue of
the Editor and Publisher printed
a tabulation of December news
papers lineage which showed that
autOmOtive advertising in 80 cities
in that month, published in more
than 300 newspapers, gained more
than a million lines over the rec
ord for the corresponding month
Of 1880. The increase was PIT per
cent, "the first important gain
shown by any classification of
newspaper advertising since Octo-
Der. 1929" Editor and Publisher
pointed out.
This outstanding increase of
autOmotive advertising is all the
more impressive when it Is noted
that the large volume was we'll in
advance of the seasonal leap Incl
dent to the automobile shows. 1t
demonstrated the determination
Of the industry to acquaint the
public at the earliest possible mo-
ment with what it had achieved
by digging into capital reserves to
produce more value at smaller
prices, convinced that only in this
way could the buying public be
brought into the market.

FOR WEIGHT URGED
High Dosage for TuberouIar

Physician Says.
ny the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, April 5.-A plea to the
medical profession to experiment with
the fattening powers of insulin for tu-
bercular patients was made last night
bv DR.. Frederick NJ Allen Of the
Physiatric Institute of Morristown, N.
j. He spoke at meeting of the Gin
ical Society of the Polytechnic Hospital.
DR.. Allen, who is also medical d1-
rector of the Diabetic Hospital Associa-

1922

diabetic tuberculosis patients, he said,
'as high as 200 or 300 units tof insulinl
per day Some of them have received
Siarger qualities than ever before given
to human beings over any prolonged
period This does not mean that all
patients have been treated with such
high dosage.
Many Cases Too Severe.
1.-THE only point is that in suitable
cases and with suitable methods it has
been possible to give these high doses
and continue them without any signs
Of harm up to the present.
Though a slight gain of weight has
always been attainable in our experience
thus far, the impression is that gain of

large gain in weight should be deferred
until the fever has been reduced by the
customary measures. Confessedly many
cases are too severe or too complicated
to be saved by insulin.
In the less toxic cases able to tolerate
the full insulin dosage it has been pos
sible to build up weight seemingly

as pound day"
Quick Magic Cure Impossible.
AS for final effects, DR.. Allen said;
"The strongest warning should be given
that this is only hope and no quick
magic cure is possible.
'Insulin can evidently be harmful
when wrongly used but no contraindic-
ton to its right use has yet been found.
Perhaps the most radical innovation
IS the proposal to continue the use of
insulin indefinitely, for the purpose of
reinforcing resistance, regardless of
whether patients are or are not under
nourished. Stopping it after a brief

Parole Publicity
Public Must Know Details

The first members appointed the District parole
board well known to most Washingtonians
They have lived in Washington for many years. if not for
their entire lives and have rendered valuable public
in the past.
Their task, however probably the most important
which they have undertaken.
The board will to outline policy and procedure
to be followed under the recently enacted ndetermnae
sentence law.
There is cardinal point of policy upon which the
members should reach speedy and definite conclusion That
the matter of publicity all matters relating to parole
The function of the board makes it adjunct and a
complement to the various courts of the city.
Upon all matters of record the courts under the law must
allow the fullest publicity
The procedure should be followed by the parole board
In most cities where the parole system has fallen into
depute its downfall has been contributed to by the
Of its proceedings.
Behind closed doors parole boards have been able to
manipulate the release of prisoners without acqanng the
public with the matters under consideration and without
giving the public opportunity to be heard.
This be allowed in administration of the system
in Washington.
It is only fair the general citzenry that they should
know what prisoners about to be released and should know
in advance the considerations which leading to that
release.
Only in this way the board and its activities obtain and
retain the confidence of the people of the city.
Without that confidence the board will find itself hampered
and its usefulness destroyed.
