New Army Truck Orders to Bridge
Gap in Autos, Defense Jobs
Van Wagner
Plea Finally
Cuts Red Tape

The skies cleared visibly for De-
troit and Michigan In general last
week with the announcement by
Sidney Hillman, associate director
OF production management that
he had been informed by the war
department that Il will place
orders for $4,000 motor vehicles
to cost 5000, 000. 900 within a few
days.
The army order means that the
expected slack In employment
which was expected to hit this
area hard after the first of the
year, will be partially taken up.
Even for those corporations which
do not manufacture trucks and
may not be affected by the new
orders, IL will mean that some of
their men will have temporary
work until the defense plants are
ready to take them back.
Governor Van Wagner is being
given much of the credit for ex-
pediting government orders for
trucks to relieve the jobs situation
for the state. He has been in
Washington on several occasions
and 60 to high places with his
plea for work now rather than
later to give the auto industry its
chance to keep in operation.
More Orders Coming
Even more hopeful was the fact
that Robert F. Patterson. UNDER
secretary Of war. informed Hill
man that the $500, 000.0 order
>would be followed by another for
E230 600, 900 involving 123. 900 ad-
Vditional trucks. This is depend
ent on authority and appropria-
ton of necessary funds by Con-
gress.
There has been little doubt In
the auto industry that such orders
would be forthcoming. But IL was
feared that the red tape in Wash
ington would delay them until
after thousands had been laid off
between auto production and de-
tense production. Placing them
at once will avoid unnecessary
suffering and hardship.
The OPM, on the other hand.
has ordered cut in light truck
production for civilian use for
January. tightening the blow
somewhat by annou cling thst the
ceiling on such production could
be exceeded by companies willing
TO cut their passenger production
in corresponding number. AS pas
+. .senger car sales have been tagging
and inventories accommodating.
some of the car makers are ex-
pected to take advantage OF this
ruling.

Dodge Dealers
Test Economy

A gasoline economy record of
2l.2 miles per gallon for is ALI
Fluid Drive cars in 1900 miles OF
varied driving through Indictment
weather-was announced Saturday
by the Dodge Automobile Dealers
Association Of Detroit in conjunc-
ton with a nationwide series OF
company runs held by TO Dodge
dealers from Maine to California
and from Canada to Mexico.
Detroit dealers. who drove vary
ing 100-mile courses radiating
from the city, practically paral-
leled the national Dodge dealer av-
erage of 21.64 with their local
average of 21.2 miles per gallon.
To give the economy tests full
practical value and general appli-
cation, conditions were made
strictly uniform. Travel was only
at lawful speeds with TIC usual
stops and starts. Fuel Used was
the commonly obtainahle "regu-
lar" gasoline. All cars used were
standard sedan models and dealers
participating in the run were re.
quired TO undertake the tests or
the same day-rain or shine.

De Soto Service Business
Shows Big Jump

Thirty per cent increase in serv-
ice facilities of De Soto-Plymouth
dealers throughout America dur
ing the past six months was re-
ported last week by L. C. Peed
vice president Of the De Soto
division of Chrysler Corporation
During the same period, actual
service volume OF De Soto dealers
has increased approximately &c
per cent over the preceding six.
month period, Peed said.
The Importance OF proper main.
tenance of privately-owned auto
mobiles has been emphasized by
national defense leaders as a
means of prolonging the life Of
cars and keeping this highly inn
portant part of the nations trans
portation facilities in good condi-
ton and operating economically.
"A large number Of De Soto
dealers also have inaugurated
time payment plans for service
work as a further help to own
ers," Peed reported.

New Pursuit
PIdneCaI|ed
'HdrdestFighter'

Development for the United
States army air forces Of a new,
faster more heavily armed Curtiss
Hawk P-40 pursuit type which its
designers believe is the hardest
hitting fighter" in the world, was
described Saturday by Curtiss-
Wright Corporation through Bur-
dette S. Wright, vice president
and general manager of its aircraft
division. Large, undisclosed num-
bers of the type already are in
production for the army air
forces and the British.
The new fighter, recently an
nounced by the war department as
the Curtiss Hawk P-40F pursuit,
features fire power amounting to
a rate of over 100000 foot
pounds of energy per minute
measured at the muzzle) with all
guns firing, according to Wright.
This is 667 per cent of, or six and
two-thirds times the fire power of
its original predecessor type, the
Curtiss Hawk P-36. The number
of guns on the new plane and their
caliber were not announced.
This MEANS" Wright said,
"that the new P-4OF has suf-
ficient IRE power to blast out of
the sky any fighter or bomber In
combat service abroad. Further,
army experts agree with our
engineers that the P-40F will
outshoot any combat plane of Its
type In the air, that IL will COM
pare favorably I'm tho matter of
speed with any fighter In the
world; and that it can 70 into
action ut n ceiling comparable
with aircraft which it will meet
In combat"
The first military aircraft type
in the United States to be powered
with the new American-built Rolls
Royce Merlin engine of British
design, the Curtiss Hawk P-40F
was said by Wright to have high
speed that is % per cent greater
than that Of the Curtiss Hawk
P-36 and to have a service ceiling
that is 20 per cent higher than
the original type. United States
army air force representatives
and Curtis-Wright engineers, he
said, agree that il will hold its
own in combat with any plane in
the world.

Render Defense
Service by Car
Conservation

The many ways In which the
average motorist can render Inn
portant defense service through
conservation of his car and the
fuel with which IL operates were
emphasized Saturday by c. W.
Jacobs. parts and service manager
Of Buick.
with curtaIlment of con-
sumner product I'm all lines and
the need for conservation for
national defense Of almost every
conceivable type Of material
from metals to matches, IL be-
comes very important and neces-
sary TO conserve the cars we
own, the fuel and lubricants
that run them and the tires on
which they run" Jacobs said.
Pointing out that the need for
saving gasoline Is regarded as a
major defense issue, the executive
that by maintaining nor
NAL rather than high speeds, fuel
economies as high as so per cent
can be effected. At the same time
tires wear out two and a half
times as fast at so miles per hour
as they do at 40, and tire life is
five times as great at 40 miles per
hour as at 80.
He said that q Buick engine In
good condition has a maximum
lubricating oil consumption OF
approximately 800 miles per quart
But oil, like gasoline, is consumed
in proportion to speed. Moderate
conserves oil as well as
fuel. and minimes the wear on al
parts OF the automobile. he said.
60 In the care OF tires, Jacobs
recommended that all tires, in
the spare, be inflated Il
the correct pressure and checked
at least once a week TO see that
these pressures are maintained
II is preferable to check pressureS
when tires are cold, before they
have run more than a mile or so
