Mr.. Young said that the bureau
of standards of the department of
commerce had conducted a series
of wind tunnel experiments on scale
models to determine the best shape
for automobile design. The first was
a sedan of the 1922 era, another one
of the 1928 class, and a lighter car;
a third a composite of the Sedans of
1888, and a fourth a streamlined
model designed and built by the en-
gineers in the bureau. They found
that the streamlined model, in
which the engine was retained in
front, since it was believed the pub
lie would demand this as a safety
feature, the most efficient of the

TAXES TAKE
HIGH RECORD TOTAL
Motorists Paid More Than
Billion in 1882.
By Tim es Special

By Times Special
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The av-
erage motorist paid $44.24 in special
federal and state motor taxes in
1882 or $3.50 more than in 1881, &C
cording to an analysis of motor
taxation just completed by the
national taxation committee of the
American Automobile Association.
The A. A. A. pointed out that the
total motor tax bill last year
amounted to the tremendous sum
of 81 ,O52, 625 ,079-a new high level
in the face of a decline of 1,677,224
in the number of motor vehicles.
This tax bill, on the basis of
valuation for all motor vehicle prop
erty of $4,543 ,676, All, means that cor
owners paid % per cent of the value
of their property in taxes, one OF
the highest tax rates in any country
at any time on a nonluXury COM
modify" according to Thomas P.
Henry of Detroit, president of the
national motoring body.
THE total tax bill consisted of
1913, 1862, 919 in state registration and
license fees, gasoline and personal
property taxes, and $79,472,159 in
special federal motor excise levies.
These federal taxes we're imposed
under the revenue act of 1882, the
revenue representing collections for
the last six months of the year."

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-"There is
no question but what the scienti-
fically streamlined automobile has a
higher safety factor than the con-

former assistant secretary of COM
merce for aeronautics and recog-
nized international authority on
aviation. declared after he had COM
pleted a study of the subject.

try" he said, that by eliminating
parasitic resistance as much as pos
sible, We could achieve greater speed
and also economy in fuel consump-
ton. The automobile manufacturers
borrowed a page from our book and
went into the question for them
selves.
cat least one manufacturer has
applied aerodynamic principles to
his cars, and has produced model
which really has lower resistance to
The wind, lower fuel consumption in
the engine, and provides riding
comfort hitherto not found in auto

ton of weight permits this car to
hold it's own on rough roads and on
sharp turns equally well at ordinary
touring speeds, and at higher
speeds. 50

in all directions at once, and COM
pare them to the marvels of speed

NEW CODE FOR

is FORMULATED
Speedway Classic viii Be
First Operated Under
New Regulations.
BIZ Times Special

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. IT.
Safer competition and newer fields
of engineering achievement are an
ticipated on the nations speedways
this year, beginning with the IA
nous Indianapolis classic, May 80,
as a result of changes in race car
specifications approved by the con-
test board of the American Auto
mobile Association.
At It's annual meeting in New
York, the board, governing body of
the speedway sport in the United
States, took steps to eliminate every
possible hazard from automobile
racing.
The first act was to cut the start
ing field at Indianapolis to thirty
three cars from the previous forty
two entrants.
Because of the new record speeds
predicted for the coming Hoosier
race, the board desired to eliminate
as much traffic" as possible.
Decreeing that each car starting
the five hundred-mile grind would
be allowed to consume not more
than forty-fve gallons of gasoline,
engineers affiliated with the board
looked to new gasoline combinations
of value to the motoring public.
Since no driver ever has been
known to finish the five hundred
miles with such limited gasoline
supply, it is certain that fuel with
a greater mileage content will be
developed. The same is expected in
the oil industry as a result of the
limit of six gallons and two quarts
of lubricant.
Receiving the official report that
this years indianapolis race would
offer 100000 in prizes, an increase
over 1888 awards, members of the
board looked optimistically to 1884
as "one of the greatest years in re-
cent auto racing history"
A resolution in respect to Fred
Wagner, one of the greatest figures
in the speed sport, who died in Cali
fornia last June, was adopted by the
board.

According to w. j. Robinson and
R. c. Cohn. heads, respectively, of
the Robinson Automobile Company
and Central Buick Company, the
new Pontiac is larger, heavier,
faster, and presents important
motor refnements which improve
fuel economy about 10 per cent, to-
gether with radical Improvements in
riding comfort and ease of control.
Pontiac'S startling improvement
in riding comfort is attributable
largely to the independent knee"
suspension of the front wheels. In

of stability and security. Steering
is easy easy, 'telegraphed' road

Another outstanding Characters
tic of the 1894 Pontiac is the eX-
IRENE smoothness of the new

matches the smoothness of the 1884
Pontiac straight eight, and that car
is much more expensive"
