“Results of Delivery Truck
Experiment Revealed By Auto Firm.
Award§ were made this week by Chevrolet to 12 department store truck drivers who drove Chevrolet trucks on economy test runs over regular department store routes in 12 major cities last summer. The runs, made under official sanctions of the American Automobile Association and with an official A. A. A. observer present throughout the 30 working days of the tests, resulted in the establishment of new economy records for ton and a half trucks, it was reported. The average mileage for all trucks participating was more than 10 to a gallon of gasoline, and the average operating cost for both gasoline and oil was a cent and a half a mile. This is considered extraordinarily low by operators of truck fleets, particularly in view of the fact that the trucks taking part in the tests average 157 stops for deliveries per -day. / Unite Delivery Costs.
The. drivers handled nearly 50 packages an hour and delivered each package at an approximate cost of a quarter of a cent each. They called on an average of more than 33 customers an hour in each of the cities. The average daily cost of gasoline and oil ‘was less than 65 cents, and each truck used only slightly more than one quart of oil during the entire 30-day run, averaging more than 1300 miles éach. Not one of the trucks had a demerit for accidents or careless or reckless driving, despite the fact, that storms and wet streets were encountered part of the time in all but three of the cities. The trucks taking part in the test runs was selected from the assembly line of the Chevrolet plant at Flint by E. Von Hambach, A. A. A. regional representative, in accordance with official A. A. A. stock car regulations. Daily reports on the tests were sent to Mr. Von Hambach by the A. A. A, observers. In Denver, a mileage of more than 13 miles to the gallon of gasoline was recorded for the entire test period. In Chicago, the truck averaged only slightly over one and onetenth cents a mile for both gasoline and oil, and delivered 11,632 packages at a cost of a little over one-twentieth of a cent each. In each case, new records were set.
EMPLOYMENT MARK SET BY OLDSMOBILE
The employment total at the Oldsmobile factory and at the Lansing Fisher Body plant today reached an all-time high of 12,195, according to C. L. McCuen, president and general manager of Oldsmobile. This exceeds by more than 2000 thé employment record established there a year ago. Both the Oldsmobile and Fisher Body factories have been operating day and night shifts since November. An all-time high in car production was established Dec. 15, when 1104 new Oldsmobile Sixes and Eights left the assembly lines. The previous record of 1097 cars was ‘made on May 28 this year.
'MORTLOCK NAMED TO CHEVROLET POST
Appointment of R. T. Mortlock as truck and body manager of the Indianapolis zone, Chevrolet division, General Motors Corp. has been announced by E. W. Berger, zone manager. Mr. Mortlock comes from Newcastle, where he served as a district manager. He entered the Chevrolet organization in 1930 with the Fort Wayne zone office. Herman King, whom he succeeds, has heen appointed Flint region truck and body matager.
TRUCK THIEVES BALKED
By United Press NL BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Jan. 2=A" protective device, designed—to make “hi-jacking” of trucks orf the high--way virtually impossible, is now being manufactured by the Bridgeport Thermostat Co. When bandits seize a truck equipped with this device, mechanism is set in motion which, after the truck has been driven three-eighths of a mile farther, cuts off the gasoline supply, starts a police siren blowing and causes a series of red.lights on the sides and body to flame out: with Christmas-tree effect.
EXPEDITION TESTS CARS
The ability of modern cars, to operate under almost prohibitive conditions was recently demonstrated by two Ford V-8 units used by Sir Malcolm Hailey's African Research Expedition. Starting from Durban, South Africa, the vehicles traversed almost the entire length of the African continent and covered over 25,000 miles each.
COOLING CAPACITY UP
The radiator core on the 1937 - Buick series 40 and 60 models is two inches thick and has 425 square inches frontal area, providing a 7 per cent increase in cooling capacity.
VALUED AT 17 MILLION
“Retail value of the 1937 Cadillacs and LaSalle ‘V-8's thus far shipped is more than $17,000,000,” General Manager Nicholas Dreystadt of Cadillac, announced this week as the 10,000th new model came off the assembly line. °

Prevention of Troubles Made Possible by New Method.
performance disappearing. In this day the aim is to anticipate and prevent troubles before they occur, greatly cutting down costly repair bills, according to R. A. Hayes, Ford Motor Co., Indianapolis hranch manager. Widespread use of a laboratory test set developed by Ford has resulted in automobile service advances, Mr. Hayes said. By means of the test set, guesswork in diagnosing an engine's faulty performance is largely eliminated. Time and labor spent in repairing engines and electrical systems is cut to a minimum.
7500 Sets in Use Since this equipment was first put in service 7300 of these sets have been placed in the hands of dealers. Ford mechanics have been trained in their use.
Use of the test set gives the car owner an accurate report of condition on the following major points: Compression of individual cylitiders, condition of piston rings and valves, spark plug condition and spacing, battery charge and capacity, battery connections, starting motor, ignition primary circuit, condition and spacing of breaker points, coil, high tension wire, rotor, condenser, generator, lights, horns, fuel pump, fuel line and carburetor. During 1936 more than 5000 Ford mechanics also received specialized training in wheel alignment, steering control and tire life. Monthly service bulletins, service school text Rooks and educational films supplement the work of service schools.
NEW RECORD
Large Sales Volume Due to General Business Upturn, Executive Says.
Establishing a new production record, the Dodge truck plant manufactured 100,000 trucks last year, according to Joseph D. Burke, truck sales director for the Dodge division of Chrysler Corp. This event was celebrated by the presence of a number of automobile executives,
city leaders and newspaper men as the one hundred thousandth {truck
Commenting upon the reccrd Mr. Burke said: “This achievement, we believe, reflects directly the faith of the truck buying public in Dodge trucks. The large sales volume is due to a general improvement in business all over the country. The wide variety of models and sizes of Dodge trucks permits us to meet practically all types of hauling requirements, a factor that is responsible - for our continuously increasing monthly sales. Present indications are that sales will increase monthly through-| out 1937.” | During the ceremony, Albert Kalinin, one of the oldest employes of the truck plant, was complimented upon his long period of service by Mr. Burke. The 6-year-old daughter of Mr. Kalinin presented a large bouquet to Mr. Burke in the name of the truck plant employes. A 12-piece band in overalls comprised of plant workers struck up lively tunes as the hundredthousandth unit left ‘the truck plant.
DODGE ADDS MODELS
By United Press DETROIT, Jan. 2—The Dodge of 1937 models, for which eight different body types were listed in previous announcements, is being expanded into a 10-vehicle line by the addition of two seven-passenger types for which a definite domestic and overseas demand is said to have developed. The new models follow, in the main, the regular standard line. The wheelbase is 132 inches.

US. TIRES GET TEST AT PLANT
Astronomical Figures. Used | Graphically to Portray Experimenting.
One hundred and thirty million tire miles, a distance equal to more than 5000 times around the earth or 250 round trips to the moon, will be approached this year by United States Rubber Products, Inc. in testing tires. “Astronomical distances are required to picture the tremendous amount of testing ‘which “U. 8S.” tires must undergo before they are placed. in, the hands of the public,” said Dr. Sidney M. Cadweil, director of tire development. “And after they are placed on the market we
insure the maintenance of their quality. “Our schedule calls for 130,300,000 tire miles to be run in 1937. This is by far the most ambitious schedule we have ever attempted. It is an increase-of 100 per cent over our testing activity of two years ago. This huze increase particularly, reflects our intense efforts in the direction of safety. “A vast amount of tthe above mileage has already been rolled up in connection with the: U. S. Royal Master, the safest tire we have ever built. A large amount has been accounted for in testing the “U. S. Royal. And, of course, future products are being thoroughly tried out. “In addition to the road tests, we are continually conducting laboratory tests. In our laboratories there are fifty test wheels in operation 24 hours a day, seven days a week. On these wheels and other machines on which conditions can be absolutely controlled for accuracy, we make every kind of test which will increase our knowledge of tires and enable us to build better ones.”
