cidentally, prices on these cars have
been revised downward.
Studebaker's line consists Of q new
President Eight on two wheelbases, the
Speedway President Eight, a new 100
horsepower Commander Eight for s., 900
and Six with base price Of $840.
This 81-year-old company Is featuring
vacuum power brakes to balance with
free wheeling. In addition to the auto
matte features accepted as part Of the
1888 picture, Studebaker offers shock
absorbers automatically controlled by
means Of thermostats. There are fewer
points for fabrication, even the universal
joints having roller bearings.
Stutz, with its five lines Of eight-cyl-
inder cars of both single and dual valve
types, also offers Enthusiastically con-
trolled hydraulic shock absorbers. One
of the dual valve Stutz models is priced
just above $4,000. known as the Safety

motors have no fan belt. The LAA
model is designed for the overseas field
and for the man who Is not in the
eight cylinder market.
Just a word about the difference be-
tween vacuum booster brakes and me-
chanical power brakes. The booster
brake aids the physical energy applied
to the foot pedal by the operator. On
the new Pierce Fights and Twelves
the Stewart-Warner power brakes do all
the work. The foot pedal becomes a
"treadle" and liberates power for actu-
ating the brakes. This foot treadle ac-
tually engages a friction disc in the
power unit which, by means Of treaded
sleeves, actuates q distributing lever
connected to the brake control cables.
It's no more difficult to stop one of
these big. luxurious cars than to press

new MACHINE DESIGNED
TO CLEAN SPARK PLUGS
Dirty and Worn Points Said to
Cause Loss of One Gallon
in Ten

Introduction of a scientifically de-
&gned machine for cleaning spark plugs
adds a brandnew and an important
mechanical tool to the automotive serv-
ice industry which will be OF benefit to
millions of motorists throughout the
country.
Tests conducted by the University of
Michigan and before the Pittsburgh Sec
tion of the Society of Automotive Engi-
neerS disclosed that when spark plugs
are dirty or badly worn they cause a
loss of l out of every 10 gallons of gas
oline, besides greatly reducing engine
power. To overcome this situation,
great need has existed for an efficient
machine that would successfully clean
spark plugs.
pied with the problem of inventing a
practical spark plug cleaning machine
that would quickly and thoroughly clean
a plug without damage to the insulator.
After considerable research, Hector Ra-
bezzana. chief engineer of the spark
plug division Of AC Spark Plug Co., de-
yeloped a successful cleaning machine
The machine is so constructed that
the proper cleaning operation does not
damage the spark plug insulator. This
is possible because of the design of the
device and the use of special cleaning
compound. The cleaning compound is
blown against the plug by air pressure
In such manner that carbon and oxide
coatings are effectively removed from
the insulator and from the plug she'll

THIS YEARS AUTOMOBILES
GIVE PAGEANT OF PROGRESS

While this looks like a sharp departure,
Buick fans will be pleased to nste that
Buick lines still somehow or other stand
out through the new mode. There are
four models, ranging from 119-inch
wheel base to 1913 inches. Ride control
is eliminated by reason Of the use of
the new Delco-Lovejoy inertia con-
trolled shock absorbers. As on other
cars, due to the use Of q pendulum
valve. automatic clutch control Is also
simpler and easier to operate.
New Shock Absorbers.
Examine for q moment the new in
ertia-controlled shock absorbers, which
introduce the new principle of differen-
t1at1ng between upward motion of
the car body and downward move
ments of the axle. Within each
shock absorber is a weighted valve,
held open by sensitive spring,
So long as the valve remains open the
shock absorber IS released, thus per-
mitting the springs to have free move
ment. Let the car body receive a thrust
forward, however, and the inertia Con-
trclled valve instantly closes. The full
resistance of the shock abSorber then
opposes the rebound of the car springs
On reasonably smooth road, there
fore, the car does not have that stiff
spring action. A buoyant ride Is the
consequence. Better tire contact with
the road Is maintained and the car con-
trolls easier. In the duodraulic type the
inertia control feature Is on the re-
bound side. Buick eights have the sin
gle-acting type.
Buick also offers a new starter button

power, has twin-type carburetion. auto
matte engine temperature control and
pneumatic rubber engine mountings. In
the Nash line also is found the Ad-
2anced Eight, with twin-ignition, the
new Standard Eight with high compress
sion, and the new Nash Big Six with a
base price Of $845. The 1898 bodies in
this line feature "slip-stream" design.
Chassis are equipped with double-action
shock absorbers-even on the Standard
Eight and Big Six--with thermostatic
control
Packard is Offering two straight eights

When power falls off materially in
. sleeve valve engine the owner is not
likely to conclude that the motor Is
filled with carbon. He has been trained
to assume that carbon helps rather
than hinders this type engine, and
sees no reason why the motor ever
could suffer from this pest.
Cases have been found where sleeve
valves were so badly blocked with hard
carbon that gases could not get into
and out of the cylinders properly.
This may occur when the engine hap
pens to pump an unusual amount of
oil, or if the carburetor mixture is
habitually much too rich.
Carbon is removed from a sleeve
valve engine by disconnecting the ex-
haust and intake manifolds, and then
doing the job manually with a copper
or brass drift. Carbon also may ac-
cumulate on the piston tops in such
quantity as to cause preignition. or the

When Auburn offers so MUCH for little?

AUBURN has one dominant deter.
mination. 1t is, to build the finest,
most comfortable, most efficient, most
enduring cars of the greatest value for
the least cost.
Quality is the keynote of Auburn's
program. No skimping! No cheaper.
ing! No shortening of wheelbase! No
building down to price!
You will be amazed at the quiet.
ness of the new Auburn cars.
You have never ridden in cars more
comfortable-you have never driven
cars more smooth, responsive, or more
easily handled. Make us prove these
claims!
We do not believe the public wants

comfort; endurance. Auburn intends
to give discriminating buyers all these
things to finer degree and in greater
measure than ever before.
