FAMUBE no OBSERVE STOP
SIGNS rs INCREASING
FATALITIES

Motor vehicle killings resulting
from failure of motorists to observe
stop signs are on the increase thrus
out the U. s., according to the Key
stone Automobile Club, which yes
terday made plea to drivers to OBJ
serve the stop" Injunction literally.
Police are urged to enforce the law
with an eye to safety rather than az
means of collecting fines.
Edward p. Curran, Safety Direct
or of the Club, said many motorists
have complained to Keystone about
the non-observance of stop signs, de-
claring that the lives Of motorists
on through streets and roads are
constantly jeopardized by reckless
drivers who ignore the mandate to
come to full stop.
The nationwide trend, he said,
is constantly toward more and big
ger'' intersection crashes, due to
failure of drivers to give heed to
the signs erected for their protec-
ton.
while it may be contended," he
continued, "that many of these signs,
especially in smaller communities,
have been erected on a hit-or-miss
basis, and while drivers may think
some of them are necessary, 1t is
never safe to ignore them. It Is in
such circumstances that accidents
frequently occur. Our own opinion is
that wherever a sign is erected 1t
should be obeyed, regardless of the
personal views of the operator.
''In the matter of enforcement,
we should like to see peace officers
stationed at dangerous points to in
sure observance, rather than have
them lurking in the background taxi
ing numbers of offending motorists.
The safety factor should be more inn
portant than the financial returns
to community"

WELL-DREssED MILITARY MEN

When honors for the best-dressed
military men in the world are award
ed the u. S. Marines should be sOme-
where near the top, If variety as well
as snappy styles are considered.
Three complete outfits with such
accessories as belts, gloves, leggings,
and similar details are the founda-
ton of a marines wardrobe, which
includes a blue, forestry green, and
khaki uniform.
For the present there is dearth
of blue uniforms due to the fact
that the Marine Corps has increased
so fast that only limited number
could be supplied. Meanwhile they
are being issued only to marines who
go to sea and q few other special de-
tachments.
The blue uniform with its brass
buttons, yellow and scarlet trim-
mings and bronze cap or collar orna-
ments is decidedly popular. Sometimes
white trousers, belts and caps are
worn with the blue blouse by way Of
contrast, making a rather striking
ensemble.
Soldiers of the sea also have
choice of about nine hats of differ
ent styles and colors. These include
khaki, blue, green, or white cap
with visor, field or campaign hat
green or khaki overseas cap and
a tropical sun helmet or steel helmet.
Naturally marine does not choose
for himself the style he prefers to
wear. Such decisions are made by
the commanding officer of barracks
or detachment, who prescribes the
uniform of the day for the men un-
der his command.

1941 CHEVROLET FINEST PRO
DUCT OF COMPANY

Detroit, Jan. 27-A manufactur-
ing process of which not one owner
in 10000, probably, has ever heard,
is playing an important part in es-
tablishing the 1941 Chevrolet as the
finest product that company has
ever built.
The authority for this statement is
I'd Hedner, national director Of SER
vice, who bases his comment on re-
ports from dealers throughout the
field. The verdict of Chevrolet deal
ers, which necessarily reflects that of
ownrs, is that the current models
excel their own predecessors not only
in style, performances, and comfort,
but in durabiliay as well.
while visible features, such as
vacuum power shifts, knee action, and
valve-in-head engine sell a great
many cars, other features, entirely
unseen, often help to keep them
sold," said Hedner. "They do this by
heightening economy, durability, or
some other factor which motorists
reasonably expect in their cars.
"Such a feature is the wear re-
sisting coating which Chevrolet
adopted for the cams of it's engine
camshaft on 1910 models, and which
is now used, not only there, but on
engine rocker arms and the shifter
yokes of three-speed transmissions.
BY means of a chemical process,
protective layer of manganese phos-
phate is deposited on the metal sur
face. This substance has the property
Of absorbing and retaining oil, which
insures the friction surfaces, to
which it is applied, being worked to
mirror-like finish during the break
in-period.
This oil-saturated coating main
tains complete film lubricant be-
tween adjacent surfaces, during the
critical break-in stage, and in that
way eliminates scuffing and soaring.
1t also protects the bearing surfaces
from corrosion before the part is
installed, and after it is in opera

Comprehensive tests which show
ed this coating to be highly eff

rolet. Parallel tests were conducted
on the forged steel rocker arm with
bronze bushing, and a semi-steel
rocker arm without bushing but
with the protective coating. The lat
ter came through the test with ap-
proximately one-tenth the wear
shown by the other arm. The COM
parison was especially convincing,
because rocker arms operate under
severe conditions, oscillating at a
high rate under intermittent loading
from the valve-springs.
Another refinement, introduced
in the 1911 models in the interests
of durability and long life, and al
