The popularity of ihcnewgoodMaxwc'l,
the ready acceptance of this finer four
wherever automobiles are used, is not
alone a question of performance, nor
yet of price. To win such wide approval,
there must also be the certainty of en
suring quality.
The public recopnlrcs that the new pood
Maxwell gives ample proof of the highest
quality. It knows that this Maxwell
Chrysler creation is truly a manufactured
car that it is actually made in the
great plants where it was conceived.

other four has ever possessed, he can
count on soundness and the highest de

That Is why the new good Maxwell is
so highly regarded as an investment in
finer motoring. We are eager to give

DO YOUR MOTORCAR
SHOPPING EARLY
facrewGood
;i AV jfcL&. X 7X j
Have you decided what Vlnd ot
car you are going to buy next !
month, or thn month aftt'r that ;
for the Utti vacation tour you .
have arranged?
You have?
Well. Junt how much will your
pluns bo upset If you do not sue- ,
owed in getting the car you waut,
wht'u you want It? j
Such questions are appropriate
In view of a situation (hat auto
mobile muke.ru and dealers now :
declare exists in their . Industry.
It Is one that virtually Inmires
disappointment for those who now i
know they are kohir to buy cars
sometime In the lat o Spring or
Summer, but who are. putting off
the actual giving of orders. It
is not going to bo possible this
year to oruVr a motorcar In May
or June with any sure hopo of ,
having it dellveivd within the
week. It will be more usual to
obtain what you have ordered a
month or two later which is dis
turbing to vacation plana, to say
the least. ,
There are several reasons for
this.
One Is that manufacturers are4
watching so that they will not
be caught in the trap of over
production. They have had
enough experience with that.
They have been keeping output
down to a close relation with the
actual ordering of cars by con
sumers. A certuin margin in ad
vance of current requirements
has been made during the winter
months, in anticipation of great
demand in the Spring and Sum
mer, but it is narrower than in
previous years. Cars in ware
houses are not plentiful enough
to caro for all the wants that will
develop, and current production
is being determined by actual or
ders.
Another reason is that dealers
whose operations are limited by
bank credits, cunnot undertake,
on the mere ground of specula
tion over future demand, to muke
arrangements for handling more
than certatin number oi cars. In
order that they may be sure of
procuring for the buyer any make
of car within a few days of the
time it is actually wanted they
must have advance notification.
Then, on the basis of definite
orders in hand, they can arrange
for financing a sufficient num
ber of automobiles to meet the
demand.
From the viewpoint of the au
tomobile business such a program
is a sound one, and one which
those who are interested In the
healthy condition of business in
general cannot help hut approve.
The motorcar industry is being
taken more and- more as a baro
meter of general prosperity, and
Is therefore one whose solid situ
ation is of interest to everyone. (
Meanwhile, the tip that the
motorcar user should take from i
the situation, If only for his own
satisfaction, is found in the ad- I
vice: Do your motorcar shopping ,
early.
A THOUSAND CARS
EVERY WEEK DAY
One thousand cars a day the
biggest six cylirider business in
the automobile industry are now
being built In the Hudson-Kssex
factories in Ietroit, according to
word received by Hoy Catching,
Iludson-Kssex distributor for
Roseburg and Douglas County.
Ninety per cent of this immen.-
business Is in the popular Hud-son-Essex
coaches, it was declar
ed. The coach type or body was
originated by the Hudson organi
zation three years ago, and this
concern now has had the experi
ence of building nearly a quarter
of a million of them.
"This great volume of business
which has brought iludson-Ksscx
Into an Indisputable six cylinder
leadership for the whole indus
try," said Mr. Catching, "has been
a steady growth over the period
in which the coach has been built;
There probably has never tmen a
single body type in the whole his
tory of the business .which has
had such a phenomenal success.
"Now the popularity has be
come such that Hnd-on-Esst'x is
the biggst builder of six cylinder
cars in the world. When you con
sider that some automobile men
tried to ridicule the coach when
it was first introduced, the suc
cess of Hudson-Essex ' must be
considered a most remarkable
one. This (;iring there will un
doubtedly be a shortage of these
popular cars, because our winter
business has been so consistently
good that wn hao bt-en unable to
build up a reserve supply of them.
It I fortunate Indeed that the
Hudson-Essex factory has tvn
able to reach this high mark of
production, or the shortage would
be even more drastic.
"The thinking motor car buyer
must ak himself, what Is behind
this success. My opinion Is that
Hudson-Ease do not emphanlr.c
any one feature of their cars, but
make every attempt to build in
all-around value. The public asks
for reliable transportation a,t the
right standard of prices. Month
alter month it Is this lype of buy
ing which has kept Hudson-Essex
In a position of uninterrupted
paN' leadership and public de
mand. "April will be the largest month
we ever hav known. The last

WHAT'S BEHIND A
STEEP HILL CLIMB
OAKLAND, 'April 7. What
behind a hill climb those for In
stance that the new lyJ5 Star
model car with the "Million
Uollar Motor" has been spread
ing a hurricane of publicity with
front om end f the country to
the other?
Star s hill climbing record Is
believed unparalleled. It has been
the greatest triumphal march
againhi tho force of gravity the
motor world has ever seen.
To Julius Dusevoir, Duraut fac
tory testing engineer, must go
much credit for the Star car per
formance in some of the. tests, but
Dusevoir himself gives greatest
credit to the new Star motor,
which is proving, without Ques
tion, one of the mos t?eusatfonal
perlormers that has ever been
brought out to power any motor
vehicle.
However, In the cases of Tlce
Hill, liakersfield. Motorcycle Hill,
Oakland, and the famous Mt. Ne
bo, at Itoseburg, Oregon, three
of the greatest stumbling blocks
for automobiles, it was power,
and nothing but power, that pul
led (he Star up those grades.
Mt.. Nebo Hill has never be
fore been climbed by an automo
bile, and there are fw drivers
who would dar,e try and climb the
hill because of ltrst, the grade
said to be over seventy per cent
lii pitch, and because of the great
hazard, in the event of failure.
Only the slightest misjudgment
would result in car and driver
being precipitated down what Is
almost a sheer clirf, into the Imp
qua liiver, 1500 feet below. Hut
ou tho up grade, the automobile
Is subjected to a call on its great
est reserve power.
Without the power that it has,
he said, it would be impossible
for the Star car to now hold the
great series of records that it
does.
APRIL WILL BE
BIGGEST MONTH
That April will he the blKgeat '
production monlh In the history of;
the Chrysler aud Maxwell factories
Is the opinion of J. V. Michael, lo- J
cal distributor for these two popu
lar cars. This statement Is ruined 1
on the unprecedented demand for
cars and the preparations being
made to meet It. 1
"According to word received
from Detroit, orders for Chryslers
are coming In In Increasing num
bers, not only from the United
States but from Kurope as well,'-!
continued Michael. The Chrys
ler baa hit a responsive chord In
the make-up ot -European buyers,
and exports have been a big pro-,
portion of factory production. '
A communication received yes
terday from the Chrysller factory
stated that the wave of Chrysler
popularity la Increasing tremen
dously and that the production
schedule for March, although
larger than any previous monlh
since tho company began produc
tion, failed to meet the dealer's
demand. As a result Chrystler otfl
! ciuls immediately began plans for
an Increase of the proposed output
and factory capacity.
"During the year 1924, S2.000
cars were delivered to motorists,
a remarkable record for an auto
mobile in lta first year In produc
tion. In fact, the largest first
year of any motor car in the his
tory of motordom. When factory
officials went Into conference for
the 1925 output, plana naturally
were made to run the schedule
higher, but after three months of
production It has been found that
the nations demand will soon out
strip this supply."
