CHIEF UMPQUA. DETROIT. June 1 Early pro duction of a new Ford car superior lti design and performance to any now available in the low-priced, light-car field, was announced to duy by the Ford Motor company. Henry Ford, deslguer of the car, and Edsel Ford, president ot the company, both stated that with in the next few weeks they will give a complete description of the new model,' The famous Model T Ford which still leads the automobile industry after twenty years ot manufacture, will continue to be a substantial factor in Ford production, In viow of the factthat about -ten million cars of this model are still in use and will require replacement parts' and service. "The Model T Ford car was a pioneer," said Henry Ford today. "There was no conscious 'pUblio need ot motor cars when we first made it. There were few - good roads. This car blazed the way -for the motor industry and started the movement for goo'l roadH every where. It Is. still the pioneer car in many parts ot the world which are just beginning to be motorized. But conditions in this country have so greatly changeU that further re finement In motor car construction is now desirable -and our new mo del is. a recognition ot this. "Resides the Model T Itself, an other revolutionary element which the Ford Motor company introduc ed twenty years ago was the idea of service. Some ot the early manufacturers proceeded ,ou the theory that once they had Induced a man to buy a car they had him at their mercy;, they charged'him tile highest possible, price for ne cessary replacements, Our com pany adopted the opposite theory. Wo believe that when tt man bought one of our cars wo should keep it running for him as long as wo could and at the lowest upkeep, cost. That was the origin of Ford service. - '"Tho Model T was one of the largest factors in creating tho con ditions which now make the new model Ford possible. The world wide influence of the Ford car in the building of good roads and in teaching the people , the use and value of mechanical power is con ceded. Nowadays everybody runs some kind- of motor power but twenty years ago only the adventurqus few could bo induced to try an automobile. it naa a harder time winning public confi dence than the airplane has now. The Model T was a great educator in this respect. It had -stamina and power;,. It was' the car that ran before there wore gdod roads to. run on.. It broke down tho bar riers or distance in rural huuuuub, brought- people of these sections closer together and placed cduca- ln wltltln Hip rpjlfll ol OVOrVOUfi. We aro still proud of tho Model T Ford car. If we were not we could 'not have continued to manu facture it so long. , -. "With the new Ford we propose to continue in the light car field which we created on; the same hnnin nf (inulitv nrortuction we have always worked, giving high quality, low price ami consume service. We began work on this new model several years ago. In fact, the Idea of a car to succeed tho Model T has been In my mind much longer than that. But the sale of the Model T continued at such a pace that there never seemed to a- on niinortunity to get the new car started. Even now tho busi ness is so brisk that we are up against the proposition of keeping the factory going on one model wlillo we tdol up for another, I am glad of this because it will not nocossitate a total shut-down. Only a comparatively few men will be out at a time while their depart ments nro being tooled up for the new product. At one J-imo it look ed as it 70,000 men might be laid off temporarily, but we have now scaled that down to less than 25, 000 at a tlmo. The lay-off will be brief, because wo. need the men and we huve no time to waste. -. "At, prusent I can only say this about the now model it has speed, style, flexibility ami control In lr:HUo.

The body is manufactured by the Hudson or- ganizatlon in Its own body plunt. -"An Interesting feature at this cur," said Mr. Catching, "Is the curving contour. The whole ex terior of Hie Body Is worked out lu attractive proportions, and with the sides, top und buck all round ed pleasingly Into each other.

This year's chassis bus been received with .bucIi universal en thusiasm that a do luxe body was called for which would correspond' with the custom-built Hudson mo dels. Admirers of the Esstyx chas sis now have available to them an additional and distinctive type of body which is fnished lu the best degree of good taste and luxury.

One. line of authorities said that the pedestrian was hero first and the right of crossing the road .when, and as ho wished belonged to him. Another Hue said that the motor vehicle was an lmportnn.t unit in the chain of commerce and that as such unit, it was more im portont - in the scheme of things than the Individual pedestrian. Tho battle wages and will continue to wage, but in. Oregon we have solv ed a part of it by adopting, at the suggestion of the Oregon' State Motor, association and the other agencies forming the Oregon Auto motive Conference, the Hoover Committee recommendations on this point. : . "These recommendations as ox pressed by tho 1927 legislature read as follows: "7 '(b) The driver of any vehicle 1 upon a highway within a business or rcsldenco dis trict shall yield the light of way to a pedestrian crossing such high way within any clearly marked crosswalk or any regular pedes trian crossing including' in the pro longation of tho lateral boundary Hues of the adjacent sidewalk at the end , of a block, except at in tersections whoro tho ;novement of traffic Is being regulated by traf fic officers or traffic direction devices.- Every pedestrian crossing Tirenurse?

How's She Hittin' BY ISRAEL KLEIN, . 8clenco Editor, NEA 8ervlco Tho rich mixture on' which Iho car has been running over the winter, won't do for summer. It is liable to cause pro-lgnltlnn, enrbon deposit on pistons nml cyl inder heads, pitted, valvos, steam ing water in the-radiator and 4)bs of power on the part of tho en gine. ' Tho warm summer, long trips and ruro utmosphor? wo meet on mountain voyage require, the ad justment of tho curburoici' for a lean mixture of loss fuel und riiore air. The obvious evidence of a licit mlxturo is black upioku issuing from the exhaust. Anothor Indication Is Iho Blow ing up of the enginu when tho throttle is witlo open, and its speeding up when' it Is partly closed. . Also, If tho auxiliary air vulvo of the carburetor Ih opened, the ougliio will speed up. And w Idling,, the engine will . galloi rattier than run smoothly. .-.. Tho best way to got the proper mlxturo through tho carhurotor 1s by making the ndjustineut af ter tho engine lias warmed up ami whllo tho car is in motion, that is while tho engine is under lend. In that event, the engine may be run at nn average sliced with the spark slightly retarded. The cur should btf slopped und the ad justment screw on the curburctor turned until there is popping in Iho curbuietor.. TIio screw should be turned back slightly and Hie car driven again.
