 1941 Dodge Models
Everything New and Different in Most Luxurious Cars
 Ever Produced Front Seats Much Wider

with Q hump in the wheel rim to prevent the throwing of the tire in case of a blowout.
 Safety is Featured
 Front seats now are .55 inches wide. The single.pane rear windows of sedan, broughain and severl- passenger models are 2 7-16 inches higher and [ 3-4 inches wider, give ing 47 per cent greater visibility. Luggage compartment lids have smooth, rounded-off corners for safety and are spring balanced, So they are easy to manipulate and do not fall shut.
 The compartment is fully illu- fninuated by Q light of its own. 1n- terior door handles point straight downward and are pulled toward the occupants to open the door; hence doors can not be opened i11advert- ently. by leaning against the handles.
 Hood latch handles have been eliminated; hoods now lock only from inside the driving coinpart- inent; when car doors are locked, the mechanism and the engine ac- cessories situated under the hood are protected.
 The electrical system of the new Dodge provides an air-cooled. two- brush shunt type generator having 35 amperes capacity and featuring a new type of insulation for the protection of the armattre winding. voltage control is fully automatic.

Were 1t not for Dodge" on the glistening hub caps, and the lettered designation Dodge Luxury Liner" appearing on the front grilles, mos tOrists acquainted with previous Dodge designs would find few faf1iil- far features to tell them they are looking at the Dodge for 1941.
 Everything about the 1o41 Dodge is new and different. Body contours and dimensions, hood lines, fender forms, power plant, chassis, grilles, head lamps, windows. windshield, steering wheel, interiors, instrument panel, lipholstering and other details have been changed.
 Many Improvements
 The bodies, entirely redesigned, are beautifully streamlit1ed--wider, longer, mounted still lower, yet without decrease in head space. Inc terials are roomier, seats wider; there is abundance of leg and el- bow space, greater visibility in all directions, moreengine power under the hoodd, and many new driving, comfort and safety advancements.
 The frame of the chassis, former ly featuring the X-type of construc- ton, is of a different closed-in box section type permitting further low ering of the body and a number of other advantages, among them greater rigidity. The wheelbase is 1191s inches for all models except the seven-passenger sedan and limousine whose special bodies are set on a chassis having wheelbase of 1371k inches.
 New Uses of Rubber
 Other improvements include ir1- creased horsepower; adoption of the oil-bath, heavy-duty type of air. cleaner as standard equipment; two fold fuel Altering; new gearshift- ing mechanism, mounted at the side of the transmission and shortening the shifting movement to a bare four inches; higher second-speed transmission ratio, increased from 1.55 to 1.83 to give faster accelera- tion when starts are made from sec- ond speed.
 Brakes have been improved still further, to assure longer lining life The rear spring leaves are of grooved cross-section to reduce spring stresses. At the back end of rear springs special rubber insulated shackles are used to isolate the axle from the frame and to reduce road sounds and vibration. The spiral spring front suspension has been strengthened by the use of new parts.
 The starting, ignition and lighting battery-of new manifolded ven- tilation type-is located under the hood where. it is readily accessible. The Pitman arm of the steering system is rubber insulated for more shock-free steering with less fatigue. The master cylinder of the hy- draulic brakes is of new design. The road wheels are of a new safety type

one or two and made exhaustive tests. Then they came back and bought more-because the car had proved ist economy to them. Today scores and scores of fleets have Champions, are adding Champions. Some of these fleets have three, four and five dozen Champions. Thus, the new car scored another important victory. The fleet owners insist upon economy.
 This year sees the economy of the Champion really coming to the fore in the used car trade. Already Stud ebaker is finding that the car is commanding higher price than the general average of competitive used cars of the same vintage. The peo- pie to whom fuel expens is omport- ant ar demanding the Champion. They ask for it and pay 8 premium for it. You can depend on these peo- pie, and their demand for low oper- ating costs is real. They know the Champion gives more miles per gall lon. They're buying the Champion in increasing numbers every month.
 So don't let anyone laugh off the importance of fuel economy. It's more than important, it's vital.

GOODRICH OFFERS
 MOTORISTS BREAK
Batteries Built With Glass Mats Feature Line of
 West Main St. Store

The sudden changes in tempera- ture that characterize the fall and winter seasons are the prime ene- mics of efficient battery perform ance, Joseph M. Flynn, manager of Goodrich Silvertowa store at 229 West Main street, declared today.
 Gold weather lessens the effi- ciency of any battery and months of excellent service during the sum- mer are no assurance that the bat- tery will perform satisfactorily dur- ing the fall and winter" he said.
 He cited statistics showing that where a battery in good condition is 100 per cent efficient when the temperature is at 30 or above, it is only 42 per cent efficient at zero. The loss of efficiency increases where the battery is partially dis charged or too small for the car.
 Changed chemical conditions within the battery cause the start ing troubles which plague many car owners during chilly or cold wealth CT. With colder weather the plate materials in the battery contract

difficult for the efficient combina- tion of plate material and acid that produce battery current"
 Counselling motorists to have their batteries checked before the advent of colder weather, MT. Flynn said that scientific research is contin- ually improving battery perform al1ce.
 The widened use of batteries built with glass mats, a feature of the 1940 battery line~of The B. F. Good- rich Company, and increased bat tery capacities are results of this research, the store manager said.

Economy Important
 And Often Is Vital
Studebaker Champion First Automobile to Deliver
 Real Gas Savings-MOre Miles Per Gallon Offered

to give me a ride" Ana he Is in- eluded to minimize fuel economy.
 Of course, this man Is to be ex- cused, because he's not in the au- tomobile business and he has enough money so that fuel costs do not actually give him concern. But If he were in the business or in the low income bracket, he'd soon change his story.
 Because gasoline economy is of vital importance today.
 Its importance may be evaluated to some extent by the fact that the Stakeholder Champion, an entirely new automobile, built to @ new idea, but unknown to the public two years ago, has successfully crashed the low-priced field, the toughest mar ket in modern selling. The major factor in this success was that the Champion was the first full sized automobile to deliver real gasoline economy.
 Another way to discover the irn- portance of fuel economy is to spend an hour or two on @ used car lot. There you will find people to whom operating cost is vital. They do not want to pay new car prices and they will be happy without the new car glitter and splendor, but they will pay | fair premium for a used car that delivers efficient gasoline mile age. Gas consumption is always vital in their buying.
 Studebaker realized the import ance of fuel costs when the Cham pion was being prepared and the car was designed and built to deliver better mileage than the public had bene getting. Then the firm realized they muct establish this economy with the public.
 Having a car that would do the trick, was to prove it. The Cham pion was put on transcontinental round trip, under the strict super vision of the A.A.A. The Champion drove from San Francisco to New York and back again, averaged 40.85 miles per hour mad delviered 27.26 miles per gallon.
 Then Studebaker conducted 6 15,- 000-mile run on the Indianapolis Speedway with two cars averaging better than 8 mile @ minute and the Champions delivered 1884 and 1917 miles per gallon respectively.
 A series of tests in owners hands was conducted in all major markets of America and under test condi- tions the Champion delivered a grand average of 31 miles per gal- lon.
 Then, to top off all of these tests, the Champion went out and cleaned up the Gilmore Yosemite Economy Run by delivering 29.19 miles per gallon, also under strict A.A.A. su- pervision.
 These facts were publicized wide- ly in news stories and advertising The result was that the people to whom economy meant something went shopping for the car. And the Champion made a sensational entry into the low-priced field. More than 8 hundred thousand of these cars are now in owners hands and at the present time we can't build the 1941 models fast enough to meet the demand.
 On top of all of these things Stu debaker found fleet operators buy ing Champions. First they bought

Ignition coil and spark distributor are placed closer together and the tigh-tension cables are given in- proved weather protection.
