From out the desolutlon and re
storation in the hurricane-stricken
Florida come unusual tales ot
queer storm accidents, and the
havoc wrought by the terrific storm
against millions of dollars worth
of automobiles.
In the holocaust which virtually
stripped this southern state's
magnificent winter resort sections,
destroyed crops and fruits of all
kinds and made homeless nearly
16,000 persons, the tales ot rescues
attempted and effected are awe
inspiring. The Rev. E. E. Madeira, pastor
of St John's church in Hollywood,
hurried to the door ot the parson
age on September 18 to see the
deafening hurricane swooping down
upon this beautiful city, With un
believable din it descended, uproot
ing trees, overturning homes, crash.
ing plate glass windows and strew
ing heavy timbers everywhere.
'I saw my home damaged, my
garage blown away and destruction
wrecked, on every hand," said the
Rev. Madeira. "Through the terrl.
flc wind and rain and the smash
ing, of buildings all about us my
Chrysler roadster stood unharmed
where the garage had been. As
the worst of the storm blew over,
I dug away the timbers and other
wreckage and stepped on the start
er. The motor started at once and
every day and night since, that
car has contributed valiantly in
the distribution of food and other
relief to the less fortunate."
Marooned For 19 Hours.
Marooned for more than nineteen
hours in the home of a friend,
while the ocean waves swept into
ithe. nowise 15 inches deep, was the
exciting experience of Marguerite
B. McKinley of Fort Myers, who
was visiting in Miami Beach when
the storm came. She writes:
"We drove our Chrysler "70"
Roadster to Miami Beach before
the storm and parked it in the
open because there was no room
In the garage. For 19 hours the
hurricane raged unabated. The
whistling wind reached a velocity
of 142 miles an hour and rocked
the house from side to side on Its
foundation. - Every moment we
expected to be crushed to death.
"Not a whole building was left
standing, and the house at which
we were staying was badly dam
nged. No words can, adequately
describe the fury of the hurricane.
At noon on September 18 the sea
invaded the lower story of the
house. The water stood more than
15 inches deep in all of the lower
rooms while the ocean waves beat
against the outside of the house
continuously.
"Outside the water reached to
the' level of the car door handles,
surging through the body and un-
df r the hood in abandon. The wind
was so strong tnat it Diew away
tn metal monogram on the door.
"After the storm had cleared I
clealied more than a bushel of sea
weed and other debris from under
the hood and we backed out onto
the street where not a car was
standing with top intact with the
water still running above our
knees."
After writing this letter Miss Mc
Kinley and her party drove back
to Fort Myers without mechanical
attention having been given her
car. Throughout the stricken area
have come similar letters which
praise the outstanding performance
of Chrysler cars under the greatest
difficulties. 4lwlHi

(Anoclsted Preu Leucd Wire.)
SALEM, N. IT., Oct. 12. The
world's record for racing automo
biles with motors displacing. 90
cubic inches was twice broken in
the two 25 mile sprints that pre
ceded the 200 mile race on the
Rockingham speedway track here
this afternoon. In the first Ben
nett Hill of New York won with
an average speed of 130.57 miles
an hour, making the distance In
11 minutes 32.43 seconds.
Hill's new record lasted only a
few minutes however, for in the
second 25 mile spring Leon Duray
of Los Angeles covered the dis
tance In 11 minutes 30.22 seconds,
more than two seconds faster than
Hill's record.

How concrete roads and motor
bucks are speeding up transporta
tion all over the country was dem
onstrated in Chicago recently
when 100 families migrated to that
dlty from Columbus, O., in what is
said to be the Quickest and largest
moving feat in history.
The heads of these families are
employes of an oil company which
moved its headquarters to Chicago.
Both speed and economy in trans
ferring the families and their
household goods were desirable, so
if was decided to utilize motor
trucks for the 380 mile trip.
Except for about 15 miles the
road is paved. Motor vans trans
ported people and possessions ot
these 100 families to their new
homes In 50 hours! According to
M. H. kennelly, president of the
Werner Storage Co., Chicago, who
directed the record transfer, no
delays were encountered and all
goods arrived safely without acci
dent. "Wllthout the concrete roads
this would have been well-nigh
impossible," declares Mr. Kennel
ly, "The speed in which the 'move'
was made could not otherwise have
been accomplished and transporta
tion costs would run too high. We
know from experience that we can
operate our truck fleet at a far
lower cost over concrete than we
could oven unpaved roads." "
While Btorage and transfer com
panies are doing a large volume of
long distance moving It Is not
through their efforts alone that
this phase of transportation has
developed, but through the insist
ent demand of the publio whp wish
to take advantage of the increasing
mileage ot paved roads to do their
hauling. Storage companies, as, a
rule, profit just as much, if, not
more, by packing household goods
for rail shipment and trucking it
locally to freight stations, On long
hauls this is still the most econom
ical method for the shipper to use,
but on shorter moves, up to 300
miles, motor van shipment is both
faster and cheapej-.
The Intercity Removals Bureau
ot the National Furniture Ware
housemen's association is working
out a plan to remedy this situation.
It plans to establish a sort of
"clearing house" at Chicago to pro
vide loads in both directions for
its members, and thus enable long
hauls to be made at . lower cost
than at present. This plan Is al
ready In effect but the bureau
plans to broaden the Bervicn and
increase the radius of operation.
The result In lower hauling cost
to the householder, as well as bet
ter profit to the warehouseman is
apparent. , ,

GREAT 6 CHASSIS
A striking new example ot the
coach builders art with a sport
motif, is furnished by the Willys
Knight Great Six Coupster, a two
passenger car affording : the pro
tection of a coupe or the open air
freedom of the , roadster ,; in one
body struoture. ThiB car which Is
being shown for the first time this
month -is equipped with a collap
sible, coupe type top construction,
held rigidly in place by heavy me
tal side bows hinged at the middle.
The windows drop Into the doors,
following the' regulation type of
coupe construction. Heavy posts
at the front of the cowl act as the
frame for the windshield and fur
nish a strong support for the coupe
top when it is raised. . . .
The top material is a fine grade
weather proof, rubberized fable,
grey in color and close grained In
texture. The windshield" is one
piece in construction, and a sun vi
sor is permanently ; fastened . to
the windshield frame.
The constructlbn of this coup
ster top Is such as to afford great
ease in folding the top back when
a fully open car Is desired. - The
appearance of the body, with' the
top down is neat and attractive.
In general, the body construc
tion ot the coupster, below the col
lapsible top, closely adheres to
the standard roadster body on this
model, with a folding seat at the
rear to accommodate two passen
gers, and with entrance to the stor
age space in the rear furnished '
from the deck at the rear and
from a door opening on the right
side ot the body just back of right
entrance. i ,
The development of the coupster
type ot sport model on tne Wiiiys
Knight Great Six chassis comes as '
an answer to the demand for en
closed oar protection from owners
who also want the open freedom
of the roadster. There are-many
times when the enolOBedcar does
not offer quite the out-of-doors
quality that drivers of the road
Bter type ot car enjoy.
Yet the demand in the two-passenger
type of car falls more def
initely toward the coupe ... for all
around service than it doeB toward
the roadster because ot the need
for full protection in bad weather. .
The new coupster meets both re
quirements and tbe labor Involved
in transforming it from a com
pletely enclosed car to a car which.
Is fully open is not any greater
than that necessary in. lowering
the top of a roadster. . ;
