resulted in the development Of the
new Flying A aerotype gasoline.
Flying A has been exhaustively
road tested to give maximum per-

opments make this possible.
The first is octane stability. No
matter how fast or how hard one
drives, the octane stability of Flying
A gives maximum anti-knock per-
formance.
The second feature of Flying A
is that it contains only the heart

The third point is that Flying

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. = Pres
ident Hoover has strengthened his
cabinet at a critical time economi-
cally and politically by appointing
Roy d. Chaplin of Michigan as Sec
retary of commerce.
Chaplin is an ace in the automo-
bile industry. His appointment was
announced by President Hoover yes
terday when he made known the
resignation of Robert P. Lamont of
Illinois. 1t was explained that La
mont's private affairs required his
attention. His resignation gave Mr..
Hoover opportunity to bring new
blood to Washington. Chaplin is
expected to take office in about 10
days.
Chapin's appointment is signifi-
cant for two reasons. One is econ
omic. The other is political.
Economically, the administration
believes the turn has come. 1t is
afraid to make another optimistic
prediction but hopes are going up
daily. At this decisive time Chaplin,
an aggressive organizer, salesman
and promotion man, with business
contacts extending far beyond the
automobile industry, is brought into
