How much longer will a motor owning public tolerate such a condition?" asks Walter P. Chrysler. President and Chairman of the Board of Direct ors of the Chrysler Motor Corpora tion. "The responsibility la not upon the police who are doing the very best they can. The difficulty Is that motor cars are so marked that . they can be sold as easily aa stol en. There may never come a time when some way can be found to steal a motor car but surely aome way can be found to make It more difficult It not very dan gerous to buy a stolen car. On every car there should be some kind of a mark which Is counter felt proof, which cannot be remov ed and which is In plain eight and easy to read. With such a mark police offlcera could easily exam ine the car and determine wheth er it is a stolen car. "Insurance companies taavo es timated that the average coat of reconditioning a stolen car Is $1M). With thousands Ci cars stolen every year think of the economic waste. "The cost of this crime of steal ing motor rara Is met by the car owners themselves In the form of premiums on Insurance. Such prem iums are high. With the proper devices they will be found surely some day sc. a Insurance rates will be cut down and so will "-e number of stolen cas. "The stealing of motor cars has reached a point where It must be checked. And It will be checked. American resourcefulness has had stlffer problems to contend with than this one.

All models are Included In the test group. 'Two shifts of drivers maintain a pace of between 35 and 40 miles per hour, stopping only for gaso line, oil and inspection. The day shift drives from 7:30 a. m. until 5:30 p. ni. with a half hour for lunch, while the night shift drives from 7 p. m. until 6:30 a. m. with a midnight lunch period. The 'Bpeed loop' Includes three miles of gravel track, banked high at the turns and one mile of level concrete straight-away. There are no speed restrictions. One portion of the road leading from the 'speed loop to the Inspection shop has a grade of 1 1.6 per cent.

They are all entitled to con sideration from the representative organisation of the motorists In the community In which they are visit Tl Una of the most Insidious causes of automobile motor overheating Is that brought about by the accumu lation of sediment In the amall tubes of the radiator. Lime and aulphate of Iron, generally present In water, are often deposited In the tubes due to chemical reaction that takes place within the radiator. The use of some antl-freeilng compounds often present the same problem through the deposit of an Incrustation In the tubes. This ac tion gradually chokes up the water passages and greatly retards water circulation thereby cutting down the cooling efficiency of the sys tem, and results in an overheated engine. . when Incrustation begins to 'clog up the water paasage.
