1886, besides incorporating features
that appear for the first time on
the masters, take their place in the
line as entirely new models, with
new box girder chassis frame, more
powerful engine, longer wheelbase
and larger bodies.
The line of body types has been
increased to seven by the addition
of three NOTES.-The four-door
sport sedan with built-in trunk, the
two-door town sedan with built-in
trunk, and the cabriolet.
More Leg Room
The standard model wheelbase,
formerly LOT inches, is now 109,
while it's overall length, last year
1909 inches, is II to Is inches
greater. Bodies are longer and
wider, with more leg room, wider
seats and additional head room.
Car weight is increased 1875
pounds. Springing has been i'm
proved by the use of longer front
and shorter rear springs, which pos
sess more nearly equal fraquencies
and SO minimize pitching.
Horsepower of the standard, for
merly IA, has been increased to 10
at 5000 rpm. by changes in COM
bustion chamber design, valve OPP
Grafton, and carburetion in combi-
nation with an increase in compress
sion ratio from Sc to l to 6 to |.

Demand for Motor Cars and
Business Conditions Con-
tinue to Advance.

With the demand for motor cars
still strong and general business
conditions distinctly better, the
industry's contribution to en-
ployment sterilization in the form
of an earlier show date has every
chance of meeting with public ap-
prevail, William S. Knudsen, exec
utive vice president of General
Motors Corp, declared today.
with production we'll under
way and every manufacturer ready
to present his latest improvements
in style and performance, the next
years sales of motor cars should
show the highest total since 1929
1929. We in General Motors
have every confidence that bust
ness is going to improve steadily
from now on. The impetus of the
improvement of 1885 will carry
forward, and the still pent-up de-
mand for motor cars insures good
deliveries to retail buyers, and
with that steady employment in the
industry and allied industries.
THE depression years were hard
years. Many suffered through no
fault of their own, but the will to
work, the cheerfulness and patience
of the American people have been
the real victors over the depression,
which from now on will be some
thing to think less about"

engineering and performance, the
chief difference being only a mat
ter of wheelbase.
New Brakes Adopted
According to E. w. Berger, Indi-
annapolis zone manager for Chevro-
let, outstanding among the many
new features of both master and
standard models for 1886 are per-
fected hydraulic brakes, improved
engines having higher compression
ratio e to y, balanced carburetor.
full-length water jacketing and
other changes resulting in better
cooling and improved gasoline and
oil economy, and cromodine rust
prevention of tenders and running
boards.
Front doors of all models of both
lines are now hinged at the front.
The solid steel turret top, exclu-
size last year with the master mod
els, has been adopted this year for
the standard line also Spoke-type
pressed steel wheels, instead of wire
wheels, are used on all standard
models.

for two passengers and the sport
coupe for four passengers. The
cabriolet built for four passengers is
also available on the six chassis.

CARS CROW OLD
IN THREE YEARS
Sales Head of Pontiac Finds
Rapid Succession of
improvements.

A frequently heard expression
from those who experience their
first ride in one of today's new au-
tomobiles is, Il had no idea cars
had been improved so much in the
last two or three years." A. w. L.
Gilpin, vice president of Pontiac
Motor Co., remarked today.
Nor is this surprising, for it is
doubtful whether at any time in the
previous history of the industry as
mary new features contributing to
comfort, safety and performance
have been introduced as within the
last three years." he stated.
This may be attributed in large
measure to the depression, for in
the tight market existing since 1892
cars had to offer extraordinary value
to tempt new purchasers. That
they did offer such unusual value is
attested to by the performance of
the automobile industry in leading
the way out of the slump.
New Riders View
"a recent rider in a new Pontiac
eight eXclaimed-'You couldn't have
bought car like this few years
back for $5000!' Which is only part
of the story, for three years ago a
car like the present Pontiac could
not have been bought for any num-
Der of times $5000-not at any price.
AT that time no American car
had knees, or solid-steel turret tops,
or silver bearings, or the KY safe
ty frame, Fisher ventilation, or any
one of the many other inventions
new within three years In the in
dustry.
80 many radical improvements
have come into the automobile in
dustry recently that many authori-
ties say that drivers of cars three
years old or older can have little
appreciation for the full meaning of
quick transportation consistent with
safety, COInIOrC ana economy.
No Draft Ventilation
"No-draft ventilation is admit
tedly the biggest single contribution
to the comfort and health of pas
sengers since the adoption of closed
bodies, yet only IL per cent of
Americas automobiles now in use
have this feature.
"A survey discloses that the solid
steel turret top-safest type of body
construction known--is protecting
less than 5 per cent of the automo-
tive travellers on the road today.
Knee action, the biggest single
contribution to the riding comfort
and steering safety in the history of
the industry, is being employed by
passengers of only per cent of the
motor cars in use in America"

HUDSON-TERRAPLANE
BODIES IMPROVED
One-Piece Top Instead of Former
Flanged Styles.

Hudson and Terraplane bodies
have been improved structurally by
the use of one-piece steel top in
stead of the Hanged type employed
IN last years car. This complete
steel body, which is manufactured
in the Hudson Motor Car Com
pany's own body plant. is produced
on presses which are the last word
in sheet metal development.
Entirely new equipment was added
to produce the 1896 steel body and,
as an example, the die alone for the
steel roof panel weighs 147,O0O
pounds. The structure of the body,
the top, the sides and floor, provide
a complete steel wall surrounding
the passengers.

in the design of the front seating
arrangement of the master coach
and town sedan.
Instead of the usual divided and
hinged front seat of two-door mod
els single seat cushion extends the
full length of the car, permitting
three passengers to ride comforta-
bly,. The seat-back is divided, the

Body Is All Steel
The body is of all-steel construc-
ton. The only wood parts used are
the floor boards, roof rails and ribs.
Because of the greater width in the
front of the car, new seating ar
rangement is possible. The front
seat is nearly six inches wider than
in the usual type of car. Three
passengers are accommodated The
front seat is adjustable four inches
fore and aft to take care of any
requirements.
The body has been moved forward
in relation to the rear wheels, thus
putting the rear seat entirely ahead
of the rear axle and bringing the
rear floor board down to the top
of the chassis frame. Both trout
and rear doors on the sedan hinge
at the center pillars, permitting the
entire side of the car to be open for
ease of entrance and exit.
Among improvements are the
wider dash, giving more room for
the instruments, the heater and ra-
dio installation; a large package
compartment in the dash and lug
gage compartment at the rear of
the car, with space also for the
spare tire and tools.
Weather Considered
a new ventilation system is de-
signed to take care of all weather
conditions. The front of the dash
is "'.t away at both the lower outer
corners, forming large passageway
between the tenders and body fol-
the hot air to escape beneath the
hood. In addition to this, the dash
is heavily insulated on the rear side
to keep engine heat fumes from
the body.
From the exterior a conspicuou.
body change is in the adoption Of
the front grilles to beautify and mod.
ernie the appearance of the car
There Is also hood louvre to har-
monte with the streamline form.

The coral-gall crab is we'll known in

DR.. Waldo L. Schmitt. research chief
of the exploration cruiser Velero Ills
party, is how it ever got in the Western
Pacific. That's 10000 miles from its
previously known habitat. Yet DIR.
Schmitt found colonies of them.
Strait Indicated.
This may be eventually solved with
a degree of interest to the story that
some little shrimps told Dr. Schmitt
on this cruise. They told him that
the geological theory that the conti-
nentS Of North and South America
once were separated by strait some
where in the vicinity where the Pan
anna Canal is located is a correct one.
They do not talk. but DR.. Schmitt
says the fact that he found specimens
on the west coast of Central America,
precisely the same as those on the
other side of the isthmus, makes this
story plain.
Maybe the secret Of the coral-gall
crab mystery is linked up with the
theory Of continental drift, that once

ican continents somewhere down near
the South Pole, while all the area

LONG HELD FRIGHTENED.
Telegram Reported Cause for Ending
"Plot" Hearing.

GONZALES, La, February % Pl-
An assertion that Huey Long aban-

ing after being frightened by receipt
of a telegram was made last night
by Chester P. St. Amant of Baton
Rouge, in addressing a meeting OF
the East Ascension Parish unit of
the anti-Long Square Deal Associa-

word of honor not to reveal it because
it might cause embarrassment to the

But Huey Long was stopped. When
we get through with him he's going to
be through in Louisiana. We're going
to do worse than kill him. We're 60
