USAGE REVEALS ACTUAL MERITS OF MOBILE Auburn Executive Declares Untried Theories Prove Valueless. GOOD IDEAS MUST AGE Kemp Contends Real Tests Are Car’s Resistance Against Road Service. There is only one way definitely to determine real worth in a motor car, is the claim of Mr. A. P. Kemp, president and general manager of the Auburn Automobile Company. He states Khat theories cannot be accepted as f definite value until they have been thoroughly proved by practical service on the road. “It is a fairly easy matter to create new ideas in the building of a motor car,” said Mr. Kemp. “Any engineer can think of many ways which would appear to improve an automobile. But the wise engineer and the experienced manufacturer know that most of these ideas are not usable, and will | not stand the spotlight of actual road service. "The car that has been conscientiously manufactured over a period of j (rears Is pretty certain to embody i practically all of the good ideas produced by the industry. For instance, the Auburn car, on the market successfully for twenty-two years, has, we believe, every feature the owner desires, and each one of these features has come through the acid test of j road service. Furthermore, buyers are aware of these facts, and they are selecting their cars according to past performance rather than prom-i tees for the future.” URGE ROAD COURTESY " A. A. A. Seeks to Reduce Number of Motor Accidents. The American Automobile Assocla- I tion is conducing a courtesy cam- j paign among motorists. “We believe that half of the auto- i mobile accidents on the highways ; could be avoided through the use of little automobile courtesy,” says D. JF I. Lewis, acting executive chairman. ) BUILDING PERMITS Prank Judd, garatre. 0.14 High. S2OO. S. Pittman, dwelling. 027 Kupene $2,200. A A. Shillse, addition, 3001 E. Nine- ; teenth. $650.

AUTO NEWS AND NOTES

I The Nash Motors Company an- ! nounces through the Losey-Nash Mo- ! tor Company, local distributors, anew j five-passenger, six-cyjinder sedan. Tho new sedan was produced in response to a widespread demand on the part of dealers and the buying pubi lie for a car of this type. With this addition the Nash line now Includes thirteen models, each meeting sepai rate and distinct requirements. In the six-cylinder car line are now three j enclosed cars—the new five-passenger | sedan, the seven-passenger sedan and the four-passenger coupe, while the \ four-cylinder line includes four en closed body types—the five passenger sedan, the five-passenger carriole, j three-passenger coupe, and two-pas 1 senger cab. | The Sanders-Haynes Company, local j Haynes distributors, announces a com plete new series of fully equipped sport model in both the open and enclosed body styles designated as the new 1923 Haynes 55 sport models. ; The new series comprises the following models: The five-passenger sport 1 touring car, the two-passenger sport roadster, the three-passenger sport coupelet and the five passenger sport sedan.

carburetors of different makes which competed with it. The generator is constructed on the principle that a current of air passing through the mixture of water and gasoline will cause the formation of a fuel gas. It is installed in the same relative position as the carburetor, but with a larger Intake pipe. Another pipe leads to the exhaust from which the air pressure is taken. Degner says this fuel not only is cheaper, but it will produce more miles on a gallon than pure gasoline.

play at the auto show during the last week. Quite a contrast between the iirst Haynes and the 1923 models. The new Star car was surely another one of the features of the show. It Is a remarkable car for the price. The Jewett, a recent addition to the Paige line, monopolized a great deal of interest in the Sterling Motor Car Company’s exhibit. The Moon six Is becoming more and more popular each day. It was the feature of the National Automotive Company's exhibit at the auto show. Mr. Bruce M. Wylie, prominent In automobile circles for many years, has been appointed local distributor for the Auburn motor car. The B. M. Wylie Automobile Company is located at 961 N. Meridian St. No doubt many of the 20,000 people passing the intersection of Meridian and North Sts. received quite a thrill when they saw what appeared to be a full-grown lion running at large on the lawn in front of the Rubber Manufacturers’ Outlet Company during fair week. Close inspection re vealed that it was only a stuffed lion held at bay by a Lion Tire, for which the Rubber Manufacturers’ Outlet Company are dlstrbuters. However,

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SHIES OF AUTOS HOSED, EXECUTES SHI Haynes Officials Point Out Remarkable Production Recorded. SEVERAL CAUSES SHOWN Strike Settlement’s Approach and Farm Outlook Thought Responsible. There has been a noticeable incrase in the sale of automobiles dur-! ing the past week, according to a re-1 port issued by the Haynes Automobile j Company, Kokomo, Ind. Haynes officials attribute this increase to a number of causes, chief among them being the practical settlement of the soft coal strike and the negotiations between the railroad brotherhoods and the railroad executives, which, according to general opinion, will end the raal controversy in the near future. Dealings Stimulated. The agricultural situation, too, which is showin ; every indication of a bumper crop, ii. serving to stimulate car sales in the rural districts. "The increase in business la gen- ! oral throughout the country,” states | Alton G. Seiberlin, vice president and general manager of the Haynes Auto- | mobile Company. “We attribute this j mainly to the fact that the coal sit- | uatlon is rapidly clearing up and also j to the prediction for an early peace in the rail war. there Is quite a story connected with this novel advertising scheme. The lion is from the collection of Mr. Thomas Fallen, president of the Lion j Tire and Rubber Company, who Is a j noted sportsman and big-game hunter. Indianapolis has anew home for i Franklin automobiles at 1112 and 1114 N. Meridian St. The new agency Is known as the Frankiln-Indianapolts Company and is headed by H. H. Alexander and E. J.

AUTOS MAY CARRY MAIL Will Be Used in Case Rail Strike Becomes More Serious. BV NEA Service WASHINGTON, Sept. B.—Automobiles will keep the mails moving, even if the railroads are stopped altogether. This is promise made by Fred H. Caley, secretary of the National Motorists’ Association, in offering his organization’s aid to Postmaster General Work. “The ten million motor car owners in the United States,” wrote Caley, “can and will be of material benefit for both transportation of mail and commerce.” It is Caley’s idea that every motorist could help deliver mail from one city to another, in connection with any tour he might be making. Since every highway always has its motorists going back and forth he sees no trouble in moving the mails by a relay system across the country. ,r We are suggesting to the affiliated clubs that they offer their serv- | ices to the local postmasters,” said j Caley. LAW PROVES EFFECTIVE Many Stolen Cars Recovered Since Act Was Passed. Since October, 1920, when the Dyer j anti-theft law went into effect, 2,778 i arrests hf .ve been made, and 2,120 i stolen automobiles recovered.
