The only legal question about which
the Federal Reserve would be resoluting
at this time is the ownership Of gold
held by Federal Reserve banks. Their
gold is, or was, the basis of our cur
rency. If Mr.. Roosevelt devalueS to
so cents, he would seize half Of that
gold for the Government.
The reserve bankers have been muir
muring behind their hands that this
would be illegal.
The obvious deduction is that the
council wanted to protest against the
legality of seizure of their gold, that
it instructed the board to prepare such
a resolution: that the board prepared
it with legal help and presented it to
President Roosevelt.
You can be reasonably sure that this
is what happened.
That does not mean the Federal
Reserve people felt Mr.. Roosevelt would
devaule right away Their private in
formation indicated he would take nc
steps along that line for three months.

Stress States Rights"
Congressional Republicans have dis
covered in their private pow-wowS one
common ground upon which they will
resist the administration. They will
combat all legislation centralizing
more power in Washington.
The keynote to that campaign was
sounded by Senator Vandenberg in a
speech to newspaper business men out
West recently A good constructive
fight can be conducted on that plane
without involvement in politics. States
rights Democrats in Congress can be
stirred up TO resist the trend toward
federal absorption of authority.
In fact they already have.

States and municipalities already are
indebted to the Federal Government
through r. F. c. loans which cannot
be repaid anytime soon. The N. r. A.
A A. A. and P. w. A have similarly
strengthened Federal jurisdiction on
every side. Prohibition repeal was
hammered through the State Legis-
latures by unusual Federal pressure.
Banking is being federalized by strong
progressive steps.
If the administration recommends
legislation to handle municipal debts,
that will mean another strong link in
the ever widening chain.
This point probably will furnish the
underlying theme for the whole COM

GOOD PERFORMANCE
IS SOUGHT BY PUBLIC
Demand Held Made for Everything
That Goes for Perfect
Riding.
BY STUART BATS.
Chief Engineer Hudson Motors


The public demands performance now
as never before and by performance, I
mean it in its broader sense, that is,
everything which constitutes the at
tributes of good ride.
There is more to performance than
the mere ability to accelerate rapidly
or to climb hills easily in high gear.
True, these are two prime essentials,
but In addition to them, what we call
good performing car is one which will
not only do these things but at the
same time do them with smoothness, a
freedom from vibration and a sense of
ease on the part of the driver and the
other occupants of the car.
All factors in the design should con-
tribute to this good ride. It would be
perfectly possible for instance, to make
a car which performs we'll, as far as
hill climbing and acceleration are con-
cerned, but with high center of
gravity. But such car would have
feeling of instability which would create
a tenseness due to a subconscious sense
CT fear on the part of the occupants of
the car. On the other hand, car
with low center of gravity permits re-
taxation, which is due to the sense of
safety. A good comfortable spring
suspension which irons out the road
shocks is also an essential part of good
performance. Silence is another essen
tial and this means not only silence as
far as mechanical parts and sound are
concerned but also the elimination OF
the rushing sound of air which pro-
duceS roar in closed body.

GREATER CARE URGED
TO REDUCE ACCIDENTS
Drivers Held to Have More Re-
sponsibility Because Of
Old Cars.

Greater care on the part Of everyone,
driver and pedestrian, to reduce the toll
Of traffic accidents is urged by D. E.
Ralston, assistant general sales man
ager Of the Chevrolet Motor Co.
A big factor in present conditions, Mr..
Ralston points out, Is the continued op-
Grafton Of cars that In normal times
would already be In the junk yards,
where they belong.
Some Of these veterans" says Mr..
Ralston, "are 50 long past due for re-
tirement that they are almost COM
pletely lacking in the means Of control
essential to safety. Some Of them are
still equipped with obsolete two-wheel
brakes and even this inadequate equip
ment Is likely to be out Of order. Many
more lack most Of the modern mechani-
cal devices essential to safety that are
built into the present-day car.
"As a result, an unusual responsibility
rests on the drivers Of even perfectly
wen-equipped cars. They are obliged
in their own driving to make allowances
for the shortcomings Of the rundown
vehicles in the same traffic stream. We

Human nature down the ages has

the crudely decorated caves of pre-

reason for the development of the luxu-

1898.
The automobile really is the part

of a new car deserves all the care,

selection of a home The automobile
should provide surroundings as COM
Portable and pleasant as those of the
family domicile.
The selection and furnishing of a

of an automobile. In fact, the desired
requisites in each case closely parallel.
Primarily, the home should be one

NEED OF SPECIALISTS
SEEN BY AUTO HEAD
Motor Industry Held Particularly
Desirous of Getting Ex-
pert Men.
BY w. r.. ANGEL.

President Continental Motors Corporation.
This is the day of specialized activity.
In every field Of endeavor-whether in
dustrial, commercial, agricultural, or
professiona!-there is a need for spe-
cialists; need for men and organi-
cations who have mastered the art Of
doing one thing well.
Nowhere is the need for specialized
effort greater than in the fields of
transportation and neutrality-suspicious.
larly the automotive industry The
very nature of the principal products
OF that industry-motor cars, trucks
and busses-proves the truth of this
statement.
Each of these units of private and
commercial transportation is composed
primarily Of power plant, chassis and
body. These are, in turn, made up of
engine, transmission, differential, frame.
axles. wheels and other units, each of
which has a definite task to perform.
While, of course, it is the collective CO.
ordination and perfection of these va
rious units that assures long life and
uninterrupted service on the part of
the completed product, the individual
tasks imposed upon each unit are i'm
portant enough to make special atten-
ton to them necessary.

SUBSTANTIAL GAIN
f. PREDICTED IN 1888
U. S. Cars Held Far Below
Normal Replacement
Demand.
BY A. r. ERSKINE,

President the Studebaker Corporation.
Sales of motor vehicles, both passen-
ger cars and trucks, for 1888, should
show a substantial increase over 1882.
For the last three years sales of new
passenger cars in the United States
and abroad have been considerably be-
low the normal replacement demand.
This means, of course, that q great
many cars are continued in use after
they pass the stage Of safe and eco
nomical operation, or are Scrapped with
out replacement. Similar conditions
prevail in the case of trucks. The situa-
ton exists in the automobile industry,
therefore, wherein consumption has
overrun production by a wide margin
and has built up an accumulated need
or demand Of substantial proportions.
General Restoration Needed.
Admittedly, the full effect of this
present need can be translated into de-
mand only under circumstances of wide
spread restoration of purchasing power
by consumers generally. Nevertheless,
there is a very considerable purchasing
power now dormant, not due to lack of
the means to buy, but to an excess of
caution or fear, which is postponing
normal buying. No doubt many buyers

market in 1888. Another large class
Cf buyers. including truck owners and
those who use passenger cars for busi-
ness, must replace their present equip
ment as matter of necessity or econ
omy. These potential demands should
go far toward assuring a 1888 volume
in excess of that of 1882. Combined
with this, there Is an encouraging out
look for improvement in the economic
situation even though the prospect may
be for a slow recovery, and certainly
one Of the first wants to be indulged
when confidence and purchasing power
return is the desire for new car.
Inroads on Safety.
Not only has continued usage made
serious inroadS on present equipment,
but Improvements in safety, perform
ance, quality and style of the 1888
models, compared with those produced
two or three years ago, are SO extern
sive that they make almost irresistible
the urge to possess and enjoy these
newer developments in automotive
transportation. Among the most i'm
portant improvements and the ones
which will probably have the greatest
appeal for the prospective purchaser
are those contributing to greater safety
and ease of operation, such as power
brakes, smoothness and flexibility to-
gether with better performance and
greater beauty in color and design.
The success of these aggressive meas
ureS in capturing business will be re-
flected in expanding employment and
purchases of the motor car manufac-
turerS and their suppliers. As those
able to buy recognize the unsocial re-
suit of restricting their expenditures
unduly, and as domestic and world eco
nomic conditions improve, the motor
industry will meet a demand for its
products which it will be unable to
satisfy with a production Of 1892 levels

They have made cars selling In the $500

appearance that they appeal to all
classes Of buyers. The low priced car
hits every market today.
The value Of passenger cars In use
at the close Of 1882, therefore, would
be nearly billion dollars less than at
the beginning Of that year and some
car mortality in 1888 will result from
the preponderance Of older cars. The
scrapping Of old cars per thousand in
use will doubtless be higher in 1888 than

 Fifth. The project will afford an immediate stimulus: to the greatest producing. and manufacturing inter ests of North America, the automo- tive, gas, oil, rubber, and accessory business, which exert very great economic influence. This is evidenced not only by the appeal of the mineral and agricultural resources of an un- developed country. bu by the stirring attraction of those resources of scenery and game. The highway stretches north through the last from tier to the Land of the Midnight Sun, passing back of the greatest mo1in- tain ranges on the North American continent, peak after peak of tran scendent beauty, tremendous: glaciers still grinding out the Creator s work, smoking volcanoes still attesting that this is literally land in the making i; the game everywhere existing in it's. primitive abundance; caribou, moose and sheep by the uncounted thou sand; myriads of lakes that are full of fish and have never known the touch of an artificial lure-all this would stir the minds of the adventur- ous and mobile population of the United States.

It is submit ted that there are many times the reasons for such a project now than there were at that early date. It is further submitted that the evolution of automatic traffic will continue. It is probable that in ten years such transportation means will be as econ cn1ically efficient as railroad and that for fraction of the expense such high form of transportation win result over the proposed highway.
