STUDEBAKER DEFERS
The. dollar of the "good old pre
war daya". piny have bought more
food and ciothiug-.djuU paid moi-.
rent than it. does today, but It cer
tainly, didmot buy so much automo
bile' 'Economic experts assert that
the dollar of today is worth only
00 cents compared with the dollar
of 1.114, but according to O. M.
Herrle, local Studelmker-Erskine
tlstribulor, today's "greenback," by
.the same comparison, actually has
'the purchasing power of $1.42
when, spent," for a current model
Ktudebaker car. 'r
' In his interesting and illuminat
ing defense of the humble dollar,
Mr. Berrfe draws attention to
Studebaker sedan prices of 1914
mid loday. "Today. The Com man
dor, Studebaker's . Big Six super
performing sedan, sells for $1495.
In 1914, a -Studebaker sedan which
was comparable In size to The
Commander sold for $2250 Mr.
Uerrie points out.
"Yet, even that wide variation In
price Is not an accurate measure
of the greater 'automotive value
which the 1!27 dollar buys. Even
If the .1914 car sold- at the same
price as The Commander, who of
the thousands of Commander own
ers would be willing to exchange
on nn .even basis? Bark In 1914.

the only cars to reach and main
tain a speed of seventy miles per
hour were stripped-down racers.'
Passenger cars simply could not
stand such strain. Yet, The Coin
maniler recently traveled 500 miles
in less than 5000 minutes at Culver
City, Calif., and set 10 world rec
ords. .
"Back In 'the good old days' bal
loon tires, .all-steel .bodies, four
wheel brakes and the many other
automotive., engineering ..'improve
ments which contribute so ii"ght
ily to today's motoring crifort
and safety, were unheard of. And
who is there who will say that the
1914 car even approached the
beauty of The Commander?
"Perhans the dollar doe&n't go
quite as far as it once did in buy
ing a necktie, but it certainly does
a real he-man job in the automo
tive market."

Most cars today have what are called "coincidental locks" which
lock both the steering or-.transmission apparatus and the Ignition at
the same time. Yet many cars with these locks In good order are
stolen, because they haye been left unlocked. Automobile clubs are
trying $o educate owners not to forget that locking is essential. Police,
too, as showrij here? 'are doing their share reminding car owners to
avoid thefts. . .

TWO-PIVOT TURNS
Left turns generally ate frowned upon, especially in busy
parts of large cities. They can be avoided by keeping right a
block ahead and then crossing at the desired corner.
liut sometimes a left turn can't be avoided. So cars are
permitted to take them, with the
result in many cases of holding g
up traffic in a jam.
This is especially true if two
cars going in opposite directions
on the same street, want to turn
left at the same corner. To doB
this, one has to wait for the oth
er. There's o delay at least, and generally a mlxup.
Los Angeles has tried to solve this difficulty by making it 1
possible for two cars going in opposite directons to make a left '
turn at one corner at the same time. This is accomplished by pro-!
viding two points in the street Intersection around which to ;
pivot, rather than the one central point that has caused trouble. ;
The diagram shows how this is done. The cars pass to the
right of each other, there's no confusion and less delay for those
going straight through, I
