ferred buying in the last two
wears: the reduction of the num-
Der of cars on the road and the
depreciation of all of these as a
result of wear and tear and the
absolute necessity of the auto
mobile in the present scheme of
things are some of the factors
that cannot be denied in ap'
praising the future of this busi-
ness.
And again, viewing the future
in a more positive sense, we
must respect the fact that never
in the history of this business,
already famous for the high dol
lar value of it's product, has the
motoring public been offered the
equal of the value presented in
the 1882 automobile.
At the same time confidence
that primary requisite for good
busineSS-is slowly but surely be-
ing restored. Economists agree
that the deflatiou of 1880 and
1881 has adequately balanced
the preceding initiation. Waste
in industry and laxity in man.
agement have been corrected.
We are again treading on a solid
foundation, greeted on every side
by amazing values.
In the light of this situation
and In view of the compelling
attractiveness of the new cars,
1 fail to see how the millions
that will ttend automobile
shows this winter can re-
sist the values offered in the
1882 automobile. speak for
my company and I believe I
may speak for a good many
others when I say that in our
1882 cars we have gone the limit.
If it has ever been the practice
in the past to withhold a de.
velopment or an improvement
until a more opportune time, !"
it certainly is not the case this
year.
If ever there was a buyers
market in the field of individual
transportation. it is this year

FOY. VISIONS. A
STEADY RISE
BY BYRON C. FOY

President, De Soto Motor Corp.
Although I realize the wisdom
of refraining from predictions,
there are several definite aspects
The Washington times., 1932-01-30

tests prove con- A. $. EDDINS
clusively that the automobile in
dustry has progressed each year
in making cars that perform
better il every detail. And this
history of progress is undoubted-
ly one of the principal reasons
why automotive affairs hold such
a prominent position in the
minds of the people.
This yardStick by which the
products of the automobile in
duStry can be and are, accurate
~ measured came into being in
1925, when the General Motors
proving ground was placed In
operation. Previously to this
time each manufacturer knew
how his own product had been
improved. but there was no way
of correlating this information
to give a picture of the advance
mentS of the industry as whole.
At the General Motors proving
ground every production car
manufactured is accurately and
scientifically tested and a record
kept of it's performance. By
combining these figures it is pos
sible to measure the advance
made each year by the industry
in making cars that are faster,
safer and more comfortable to
ride in and drive.
The question of speed is para
mount in this fast moving age,
and in this department the auto
motive industry has made mate
rial progress. In 1925 the aver
age top speed of all automobiles
was $50 miles per hour. while in
1881 this figure was moved up
to 500 miles per nour. Unques-
tionably, this mark will be ex.
ceeded When the records of all
1882 automobiles are tabuIated.
Time also has been clipped
in the acceleration Of cars. Seven
years ago it required 9.63 sec.
onds to accelerate the smaller
and lowest-priced automobiles
from 10 to Is miles per hour.
The 1881 models Of these same
cars accelerated in 6.13 seconds.
Medium priced cars in the Olds.
mobile class showed a gain Of
two seconds in acceleration time
during the seven years while
the larger and more expensive
automobiles made corresponding
gains.
Automobiles of every price
group are today more easily
steered than those of seven years
ago. The greatest gains in this
desirable feature have been made
in medium-priced cars, which now
require an average of 16 pounds
pressure to turn the front wheels
when driving at the rate Of 10
miles per hour. as compared to
29 pounds of energy required by
the 1925 cars.
Nineteen thirty-one automobiles
are more than three half
times quieter than were the cars
of 1928, the records showing that
all automobiles averaged 4.83
units of noise then, as compared
to 1.33 units now. Vibration has
been reduced in the same period
from an average of 9.8 units to
81.
These facts and figures prove
the continuous progress of the
automobiles progress unsur.

Keen IdIing Speed Up

There are two reasons for see.
ing that the idling speed of the
engine is not too low if the car
is equipped with free wheeling.
One of these is the increased
likelihood of the engine stalling
while the car is coastings That
means a strain when reconnec-
ton of the drive line starts the
engine again The second is
that too low an idling speed will
mean battery discharge when
the car is free-wheeling.

Secondhand Cars

Secondhand cars are never too
old to sell in France, and like
good old wines, they improve in
price with age. When a car be

finally finds it way into the coun.
try. where a peasant will use it
for hauling crops to market. Prices
asked for these near wrecks are
astounding. They are just a frac-
ton off the original price. and
it takes some dickering before

Work on Wrong
Side of Roadway
Bulletin Urges Care in Turning Out
for Highway Equipment Work
ing on Left Side

Getting away from having equip
ment on the left side of the road
way when doing maintenance work
is a traffic and accident prevention
problem that is receiving a great
deal of attention by highway Of
ficials of all states but without a
satisfactory solution being found,
according to a Minnesota highway
bulletin.
In order to fill in depressions and
smooth out rough spots on gravel
roads most satisfactorily it is neces-
sary to move the loose gravel back
ward and forward along the high
way, and not merely from one side
to the other, the bulletin points out.
To do this, the gravel is moved to
the center with the blading machine
moving with traffic, but to complete
the operation the blading must be
done on the other half Of the road
way with the machine moving
against traffic.
The operation of road mainten-
ance equipment against traffic al
though authorized by law, is recog-
nized as a hazard, and operators of
vehicles engaged on road work are
instructed that this must be done
as little as possible. When it is
unavoidable, all efforts must be
made to protect motorists from ac-
cidents.
All equipment of the Minnesota
highway department, the bulletin
states, is painted a bright orange
to make it readily visable to ap-
preaching motorises, and drivers
are urged to slow down when ap-
preaching it so that safe turn
out can be made. This is impor-
tant, the bulletin urges, because
frequently a ridge of gravel lies
along the middle of the roadway un-
til the grader can move it over,
and although this ridge is never
large, sudden turn at high speed
may put the car out Of the drivers
control.
