new Star Coupster by the motoring
public. Placed on display practic

dealers all over the west, this new

factory here for several dnys.
Consensus of opinio expressed
by dealers in the orxtntzntton Is
that the Coupster will prove one
of the most favored types of motor
cars being manufactured today. At
a low price, it combines the road
ster and coupe in a unique con
struction that makes for light
weight, sturdinesa and an attrac
tive appearance.
It is built on the famous 1925
chassis, with the "Million Dollar

in employment in Detroit, due to

"American inventive genius can

There should be a way to mark

'.Marking distinct advances. In the
company's refined an lubricating
oil business on the coast, the Union
Oll'Company of California has just
launched two netW .vessels. 'The
larger ship, which Was christened
the "Redllne". was - launched at
Oakland, and will go Into the Sat
ramento and San Joaquin river
trade. At Los Angeles' Harbor the
most modern oil barge yet con
structed at the port was nanted
the "Coronado" and will deliver
Union non-detonating gasoline and
other products of the company to
the multitude or small craft wnirn
make their headquarters at San
Diego Harbor, to which the "Cor
onado" will be attached.
Both vessels, .while relatively
small, are of the latest design and
most thoroughly equipped exam
ples of their type on the Pacific
Coast. The "Redllne". a shsllow
draft, twin screw vessel, is speci
ally constructed for use in the
river territory of Central Califor
nia. It has a draft of eight feet
six Inches when fully loaded; a
capacity of 160,000 gallons, In ad
dition to fifteen tons of package
goods, and a speed of nine knots.
t is 175 feet long. There are prac
tically no places along the Sacra
mento and San Joaquin rivers
where the. "Redllne ' cannot make
a delivery. The motor equipment
consists of two 165 horse power
four cylinder, four cycle Diesel en
gines. The vessel wss sponsored
by Mrs. T. A. Hayes, wife of the
assistant to the executive vice
president at San Francisco.

from year to year. Now there
probably will be no way to check
the theft of cars entirely but sure
ly there Is some way to cut down
the number of cars stolen.
The cars stolen last year were
valued between $100,000,000 and
$125,000,000. That sum must be

their knowledge of Its speed, pow
er snd stamina; the records of
races won by this type of motor at
Indianapolis and elsewhere simply
justify their judgment,
"It la Interesting to note that
Bulck, early in the Industry dem
onstrated the superior power and
speed of the valve-ln-head engine
on the speedway. A Bulck car won
races st Indianapolis, at the time
when the annual event covered 250
miles. In tact, until 14 years ago,
when Bulck withdrew .from enter
ing cars In racing events, Bulck.
made numerous records on varloua
tracks throughout the country."
For the 13th consecutive year a
racing car powered by a Valve-in-Head
motor has won the annual
Memorial Day races at Indiana
polls, the classic of the world.
Yesterday,' as ln past years, this
type of motor has proved It pos
sessed the greatest power and the
greatest speed. Because of its un
varying success on the winning
cars, the valve-ln-head racing en
gine has come to be universally ac
cepted for all such speed classics.
"It Is a matter of mere record
that Bulck engineers were the
first to recognize the superiority
of the valve-ln-head engine," ex
plains E. T. Strong, general man
ager of the Bulck Motor Co," and
Bulck has concentrated on the
valve-ln-head since 1904. There
are more than 1.000,000 Buick
valve-in-head cars ln use today.
That racers use the type of engine
crime vast in Its proportions. The Bulck has made famous indicates

High automotive production will
continue through the second half
of 1925 It Is expected by R. H.
Orant, sales msnager of the Chev
rolet Motor company, who baa
spent three months of the current
yesr visiting In direct contact with
Chevrolet dealers. His travels
have taken him to most of the large
cities and more than half the states
"Demand for cars, which even
before this time last year waa be
ginning to Blacken, still remains
strong," said Mr. Orant. "The sales
peaks and depressions df former
years are beginning to flatten out.
The automobile haa become a year
'round product, particularly since
the closed car grew to such favor.
Seasonable variations In demand
re becoming less marked.
No one section predominate
as a present or prospective market
for automobiles. Sales throughout
the entire country reveal a gratify
ing steadiness and uniformity of
demand. And improvement of the
agricultural situation, particularly
In the southwest where the drought
has broken. Indicates thst thous
ands of farmer-purchasers will
help sustain the demand during tha
latter part of the year.
"It Is not Improbable that de
mand will Increase allghtly In the
near future and then remain un
changed for some time, still at a
comparatively high level. This
possibility, however, will have
sllRht effect upon production, es
pecially among the large compan
ies. "Production of the more popular
cars ouring recent months ha
been unequal to demand, with the
result that manufacturers have
been accumulating a reserve of un
filled orders which they can meet
only by steadily building automo
biles. This is a favorable and
healthy condition for any business.
It is a guarantee against abrupt
production variations. Also, It
benefits the dealers because im
mediate delivery of cars to wait
ing purchasers permit rapid
turnover of capital.
"The race of the Chevrolet Un
filled order list against record pro
duction strides augurs well for fu
ture sales. Chevrolet went Into
May with 35,882 unfilled orders. In
spite of a large production sched
ule the amount of reserve order
was diminished but slightly, due to
the number of new orders received."

We predict that within a month after
we have delivered your Chrysler Six
all your ideas of travel will be changed
revolutionized.
Instead of traveling by train, nine
time out of ten you'll travel ixt your
Chrysler Six.
We predict that your Chrysler Six
will make these changes in your
ideas and habits of travel because it
has already done so with thousand
of owner. , .
All this is just what might have been
expected when you consider the na
ture of the results which only tha
Chrysler Six delivers.
You have command of a high-gear
speed range of from 2 to better than
70 miles an hour. Few would care to
let the car out to its limit.
You don't need this highest speed to
make any journey in better time than
other car. Drive at an average of 35
mile and (till you'll save time over
other because the Chrysler Six is so '
alert, because it gets away so quickly
and is so easy to handle, so sure in
control. It is always first out of traffic.
Roadability istone of the Chrysler's
most remarkable features. It clings to
the road a though it really weighed
a much as two ton.
You'll drive in town or country all day
without fatigue because of it easier
riding qualities which efficient Wat
son stabilators have made still more
remarkable by the elimination of re
bound shock on even the roughest
highways. -
You'll drive always with the greatest
possible safety because Chrysler-Lockheed
self-equalizing hydraulic four
wheel brakes give you perfect control.
You'll find yourself freed of motor
worries by the Purolator, which auto
matically and continuously filters all
dirt out of the oil in yourcrank-caseas
you drive; by the efficient air-cleaner
which keeps all dust and dirt out of
your carburetor and engine.
We make one more prediction. After
you have once had a ride in this car
you'll always think of better trans
portation in terms of Chrysler Six.
That ride is waiting your convenience.

A Detroit man goes to Toledo frequently on bust
nets, then to Cleveland and back to Detroit. Ha
used to do It by train, usually on the sleeper. Now
he travels In his Chrysler blx starts at his own
time In the morning makes Toledo and Cleveland
the same day, transacts business In each place)
and Is free to start back home when he chooses,
regardless of train schedules.
Results that only Chrysler Six delivers, owners
say, make this newer travel method tha safe
sensible and comfortable way to get about.
