for the first quarter that will exceed
1000, 900 cars and trucks. The pro-
duction Of the first three months Of
1884 totaled close to 100000.
In this way the spread Of 1885
operations over 1884 may be pictured
For the first-quarter period of each
year the upswing has been slow but
continuous since 1880.
The million-car objective, which
leaders of the industry hope may be
achieved before April /, appears a rosy
prospect, but with one reservation
This lies in the possibility that labor
troubles again may interfere with pro-
duction, as they have in the past.
If the situation can be brought past
critical period that may develop
about March l, the chances appear
good for production of the million OF
more vehicles. The hazard appears in
the form Of agitation now brewing
from which 1t is feared there may be
a repetition of last years experience,
when there were strikes in "key" parts
plants.
Labor leaders have planned a series
Of meetings among the workmen OF
parts companies at Cleveland and To-
ledo for next week, when q new at.
tempt Is expected to be made to re-
iterate previous demands and force a
showdown. Coupled with this is con-
certed agitation affecting the steel ane
textile industries that may cause tie.
ups calculated to shut of supply OF
both of these commodities from auto
mobile plants. Both are vital to the
continuance of passenger car output
during March. when volume is headed
for higher levels than at present.

COUNSELS
WOMAN DRIVER
Says Those Not Buying New
Cars Should Know De.
sign Changes.
BY FREDERICK C. RUSSELL.

Even the woman who knows she can
not afford to buy new car just now
is doing herself an injustice by not
becoming more familiar with the latest
the market has to offer. Only by hav-
ing more intimate acquaintance with
the detailed Improvements is she able
to Gull ideas which can be applied
proftably to her present equipment.
A perfect example is the new de-
yelopment In compression where ratios
have been moved up considerably SIM
ply because of improvements in cool
ing. This Is done in various ways. In
some systems water is directed to the
exhaust valve seats. In another water
is first directed to the rear of the
engine which normally runs hotter
than the front. Such changes cannot
easily be made in the older cars, but
owners can take the tip to see that the
cooling system is kept in the most
efficient condition.
Compression ratio sounds technical,
but it is simple enough if you bear in
mind that the expression Is to /"
merely means that when each piston
comes up on its compression stroke it
congresses its gas charge to one sixth
of the original space it occupied in
its cylinder. The process is identi-
cal with ramming a charge of gum
powder into the muzzle Of a gun.
So many changes have been made In
the 1885 cars it Is shortSighted policy
to assume that familiarity with former
models makes 1t unnecessary to learn
more about the new model at the serv-
Ice station. Some of the latest cars
carry entirely different front ends,
braking systems and transmissions.
One motorist has been having oil
sprayed over the front springs of her
new car. That is quite unnecessary
even troubles the springs
already are equipped with special in
serts to do the lubricating job accu-
rately. Service men tell me there is
no end to the number of people who
are having the wrong grade of oil put
into the new motors. I have Just
heard of case where the owner hasn't
bothered to have the fan bearing lu-
bricated Just because she still thinks
the car is equipped as was the previous
model.
Women especially will be interested
in the tire jack saw a motorist using
the other day. 1t raises the car at the
front or rear bumpers instead Of at
the axles. Never before have I wit
messed anything so simple There
was no possibility Of solling clothing;
none Of the usual contortions. The
actual lifting Of the car was accom-
plished by turning a convenient and
easily operated handle.
am reminded to pass along the
suggestion to use the lower gears
carefully when starting away at the
flash of green when the streets are
slippery. Too much power to the
rear wheels under such conditions is
certain to spin one of them and start
the rear end veering in that direc-
ton.
like the rule that has become law
in one household where one Of the
children Is just getting over mashed
finger. Only those inside the car are
permitted to close the doors. This
ties in with the observation that most
Of the mashed fingers are supplied by
people who stand on the outside and
who volunteer to play doormen.
