4 i-It Is conceded beyond any question of
doubt by all those In close touch
' with the automobile situation through
out the country that the .most valuable
addition that has been made to the mo
tor car equipment during the past year
ia the self starter. It is a convenience
that haa been needlessly slow In coming,
In spite of the faot that in a single in-
' stance it has been In successful opera?
, tion for three or four seasons past. For
: ome reason, the manufacturers of the
country have, with this notable exeep-
, tion, entirely ignored the self starter,
, pa ring ' no heed whatever, apparently,
to the constant clamor against the tin-
( , Pleasant necessity of cranking Imposed
upon all owners of motor cars. ; Now.
ho wever, it has been taken up with a
vengeance and within a few months the'
oar without a net Starter will be the

all . have their merits. On the other
hand, a flood of . criticism flows forth
from various sources against the var
ious types of self starters. All of these
, many senseless criticisms are extreme
. ly useless and childish,, and the very
ones who are loudest in their criticism
now will In a short while be the front

tion seems to be that the self starter
is in ins experimental stage and prob-
Ably the various types aU - have their
' fallings. We do' not know that ' It is
claimed or any of them that they will

Wild Simon Rear A,
- Mast -of the criticism that is being
- , leveled at the self starting devices are
; made unlntelligently, One hears all
. kinds of rumors some of them Of the
wildest nature circulated. When- run
down these fade - away , into nothing.
They; have no foundation whatever in
fact . Witness the whispered story
beard from some dealers that often peo
pie are killed by the explosion of one of
the cylinders through the operation of
the self starting device. If a person
v stops to tnink the matter over, is it rea-
sonable to assume that some of the
-.'.-foremost automobile engineers of the
. world would put tn car, which may
go into the hands of the most careless
. or experienced driver, r a device that
would be of this dangerous character?
The answer is so obvious that comment
-.Is unnecessary. .- --.-'.
,. ' The chances are that next year will
see a wonderful development la the self

first experiments with this device. Now
tnatso many of them have taken It up,

Meanwhile, there are all kinds of
gooa, Daa and indifferent starting de-
vices on the market. While their re
spective merits may be questioned, it is
the most foolish thing In the world for
the -' automobile men themselves .to
"knock" them .because their particular
cars do not happen to be equipped with
any of the different makes. There is
not a bit of . doubt in the mind of the
, every car . turned out by Jthe factories,
with the possible exception of the high
si. est priced cars, the owners of which as
' a rule have drivers who can do the turn
over act for them, will bear some kind

. One Of the most important Inventions
which has been developed in perfecting
the automobile has Just been announced,
and is In good season for the New York
automobile show,; where' will be .in
spected with much Interest 'by' .''motor
' It. is an Invention which keepa the
water in the cooling system of an auto
mobile above. freezing during the winter
months. Jt pot only does this, but It
keeps the entire motor warm, rendering
it 'easy to start, and overcomes the dis
agreeable features of a cold motor, and
the loss resulting from , 'ffotn and
cracked cylinders and radiators. It also
keeps the gasoline at a. temperature of
vaporising; ', keeps the Interior of the
body of limousine or taxicab warm,
and , provides . foot - warmers for the
driver and passengers of ari open, tour
ing car. Ail devices heretofore present
ed for beating cars nave depended on
heat from the exhaust, a method which
only worked' while the car was in mo
tion, i. The new Invention keeps the in
terior of the car B,t summer heat wheth
er the car la running or standing.. It
accomplishes a twofold purpose in keep
ing the motor warm, in that experienced
engineers have long since recognised the
Importance of a uniformly heated motor
and t the racing driver always "warms
her up", before a race In order to de
velop -the highest degree of efficiency. ,

' It has been found in. conducting tests
with the. new Invention,, that the water
In the average well balanced motor when
running registers 100 . degrees fahren
helt, but that a higher degree of effi
ciency can be obtained when the water
registers about ISO degrees. - As a. re
sult the new Invention has been soWgu
lated that it maintains V temperature
of 100 in the motor While standing, and
150 while running. '' The temperature.
however, can be adjusted to meet the
idiosyncrasies of any motor. '..'"

which under the action of heat and ex
posed to the air shows a tendency to
generate formlo acid, wich has a detri
mental action on the parts, while cal
cium chloride, although a very effec
tive cooling agent, unless chemically
pure, contains hydrochloric acid which
of course Is not neutralized and attacks'

The "brass housing in which the healer
is enclosed, is about half the size of an
ordinary gas generator, and Is located
on the step or running board of a car.
The bottom la filled with a gauze, which
makes It impossible for even a liquid
gasoline to blase up. Then comes the
burner which has been subjected to all
kinds of tests and vibrations, and can
not be extinguished in any way, except
by means of the hand or safety valve.
However, to make it doubly safe, it is
provided with a hermostat which auto
matically keeps the gas line open when
the burner is - burning and automat
ically closes the gas line the moment
the burner goes out. . "
Above the burner is a coll through
which the cold water runs. Is heated and
returned to the circulating system at
the lowest point of the water Just be
neath the radiator, and as hot water al
ways rises, it passes through the water
of a lower temperature, and rises to the
tops of the cylinders and radiator, The
colder water which la.jjrawn out from
the bottom, enters the other pipe - and
proceeds to the heater; thus' not only
keeping warm, but also keeping in cir
culation at all times, and diminishing
hot water radiation for the body of the
car as showo by thermometers, at sum

it: will not be an unusual sight during
the winter months to see ladles without
wraps riding about the streets In

Qhicago Takes Step .at Proper
; Lights and Signals for Auto
mobiles; Atlanta Regulates
Crossing Traffic
There are many evidences in different
parts of the country ot a sentiment In
favor of general uniformity. In traffio
regulations. The greater attention that
la- being paid to this Important ques
tion in all of the large cities has ex
erted a 'direct influence upon all com
munities where traffio has attained any
reasonable1 proportions. . In many. cities
and villages' where traffic, due to the
more frequent use of the automoblla,
has largely Increased .. in recent years,
this, demand for . proper, regulations is
taking the ' form of requiring suitable
lights -to be displayed on all vehicles
after, sundown, while, in more thickly
populated centers, decisive action is be
ing taken against the muffler out out
on motor vehicles.,,.,' ' , 'ft i ,,(.,",
-' ghonld Begnlate XJghts. '.'
On the subject of lights as an aid to
safeguard all users of the publio high
ways, the resolutions recommend that
all vehicles should carry at least one
lighted lamp of suflfclent candle power
to be visible at a distance of 300 feet,
so placed as to be seen from the front
and left side and a red light visible in
tne reverse direction. : The use, in cities
and i villages . of non-dazzling . head
lights on all automobiles wherever the
streets are adequately lighted was also
urged. This la Oregon law, but la not
being enforced."
Scores of requests from city officials
throughout the country have been made
to the Touring Club of America for cop
ies of these resolutions and that organ
isation is now distributing them to the
heads of municipalities, police officials,
state motor vehicle administrative off!
clals, highway authorities and civic or
ganizations.
The new Chicago traffio regulations
are considered by far the most compre
hensive yet adopted by any municipality
and are sure to have a marked effect in
solving the many problems in other olt
les connected . with this Important Sub
ject. Looking toward the abatement
of the unnecessary use of warning sig
nals the ordinance defines for the first
time in the history of municipal legis
lation Just what an' adequate signal Is,
by the adoption of one of the Touring
club's recommendations, that aU motor
vehicles be provided with an adequ ate
warning signal which must produce an
abrupt sound sufficiently , loud to be
heard under all . conditions of traffic
and that its use except as a warning ot
danger shall be punishable by a fine of
$25.
Muffler Boise Eliminated.
. The Chicago ordinance will also tend
to check the abuse of tbe muffler cut
out, which is classed as an unnecessary
noise and punishable by a fine. ,
'. As a result of several serious acci-
I dents caused ' by autpmoblles-.atriklng
passengers BLUBming; irom sireei cars.
the Chamber of Commerce of Atlanta
requested the Touring Club of America
to suggest some way to eliminate such
accidents in the future through the en
actment of proper traffio regulations.
The provision In the Callan automobile
law. of New York state, which provides
that "In approaching . or passing a car
of a street railway which has been
stopped to allow passengers to alight or
embark, the operator of every motor
vehicle shall slow , down and if It be
necessary for the safety of the publio
he shall bring said vehicle to a full
stop," was recommended and substan
tially Incorporated in the ordinance
passed by the Atlanta oouncll.
While the new regulations sdopted by
the .general council of Atlanta are not
as far reaching as the Chicago ordi
nance, they are, nevertheless, a art;p in
the right direction and will have a de
cided tendency to eliminate many of
tne. evils which nave arisen from the
lack. of proper traffic rules, especially
In the congested business section along
Peach tree street, "the Broadway of At
lanta." -

Life of Engine Bearings, -
It Is Said.
"That the long stroke motor has come
to stay," says Mr. pulmage, manager ot
the ' local firm of Dulmage & Smith,
agents for the Mitchell, Hupmobite, El
more and Reliance trucks, yesterday, "is
now an. established fact, and X believe
another year will see all progresslvs
manufacturers using this type of eni
glne exclusively, While the American
manufacturer , has ; been considerably
criticised . for , allowing his European
Competitors to gain a two years' lead
on him ; before adopting this type , of
motor It must be remembered that it is
a comparatively simple matter for the
European - manufacturer to make' a
change of this nature for the reason
that he makes but a few hundred cars
without any very expensive equipment,
while the American manufacturer makes
them by the thousands and tens of thou
sands with a tremendous investment In
Jigs and special tools which become, to
a great extent worthleaa when a radical
change of this nature is adopted.'
,. "The manufacturers of1 the Mitchell
oar," says Dulmage, "'as well, as a few
other of the larger manufacturers have
already 'adopted this design, due -probably
to the- fact tia tbe personnel of
their designing departments is composed
largely of French engineers and who
have, therefore, been a. little closer In
touch with the latest developments In
gas engineering abroad as . well as at
home. .:.., .N.-.-. "' ,,, - , ... 7 ..;..., .
. "One reason possibly why the Euro
pean, manufacturers have given more
attention to this matter than the home
makers is because of the high price of
gasoline abroad, -making fuel economy
one of the strongest selling points of a
car. There are. however, many other
benefits to be derived from this' design
of engine, of which the most important
are probably the slower crank shaft
speed resulting In longer ' life to the
engine bearings, a motor which la more
easily cooled and which will - stand
harder work without overheating and
greater leverage on the crank shaft on
account of the longer connecting rods
required by the longer stroke." ;,:
SAYS CITY ATTORNEY'S
"The time has come," reads a portion
of Ve annual report of City Attorney
Frank S. Orant, filed yesterday, "when
the theory that a city attorney is com
pensated for his work, by the experience
be acquires should be exploded. The
salary of tbe office should be Increased.
as the city attorney has charge of cases
of great . importance --. to taxpayers, and
he finds arrayed against him legal tal
ent of the first, order, The great cor
porations pay . thslr attorneys v often
times as much for a single case as the
city attorney receives in a year from
the city."
Mr. Grant recommends that the peo
ple adopt a charter amendment at the
coming special election providing for the
creation of the office of publio prose
cutor. He thinks the civil and criminal
departments -of the city attorney's office
should be separated.
During the year Mr. Grant filed S7
written opinions, 1037 other Official
communications,- 75 'contracts and at
tended In person hundreds of committee
meetings.
. His office has been overwhelmed with
a great mass of work during all of the
year, and besides all the routine busi
ness the department rendered an average
oi zo oral opinions a ally. ... .
Mr. Orant recommends that the sal
aries of all his deputies be increased, as
he says they are overworked and under
paid. 7--7
