The car shortage is worse than be
fore, and is one of the big problems
that the motor makers have to con
tend with. How much, damage it will
do in the next season Is questionable.
but in the northwest territory the
failure of the railroads to provide
equipment w(ili cost the automobile
men sums ranging into hundreds of
thousands.
Several factors serve to make the
car question this coming seaswi more
acute than last, in wmah the car
shortage hindered business at all
times and caused heavy losses for al
most every dealer doing business- in
Portland. The big outstanding fact
is that every house in town Is right
today, before the selling season has
really started, waiting for shipments,
which should have been here weeks
ago.
Early Buying Advised.
It will be the prudent buyer who
will have a new car this spring. The
figures just issued by the National
Automobile Chamber of Commerce
show that not SO per cent of the re
quired number of cars have been de
livered to the Itroit factories in the
last month; . The manufacturers go
even stronger than that and say that
the cars they have received are not
15 per cent of what they could use.
Northwest dealers have always been
prudent to t'he extent that they
stocked up In winter wtien the east
was not buying cars, realizing- full
well that when the demand started
they wwild be able to get nothing be
cause the factories would dump them
nearest tneir door.
Ho Winter letup.
So, when fall rolled around and the
east locked up its cars, Oregon deal
ers sent in their orders paddeMy the
extent that they expected their busi
ness to expand. But there was no win
ter letup and every one of them is
Just living from hand to mouth, so to
speax, as regards his cars and their
shipment.
Formerly, a line that was producing
neavy, was aoie to send out enough
cars by spring so that the dealer had
a warenouse run and was able to
peddle them ont without regard to
freight shipments and looked to the
latter to fill up the etock only.
wjtn tne present shortage, acute
even before the season starts, and the
railroads becoming less able to copa
-with the situation each day, some are
expending every effort to force early
sale and in that way get better at
tention in tne east.

Auto Dealers to
Visit San Francisco
Coast Autd Dealers
To Hold Convention
Oakland. Cal., Feb. 8. There is to I
be a' great automobile dealers' con
vention held on the Pacific coast this
year.
R. .C. Durant, sales manager of the
Pacific coast . Chevrolet factory, has
announced that the first annual Pa
cific "coast Chevrolet dealers' -convention
ia to be held in Oakland this
week.- The Chevrolet dealers' con
vention . is to open on the same
day as the Pacific coast automobile
'Show in San Frandisco. On the open
ing night of the show the Chevrolet
dealers are to attend the salon in a
body. It is tho intention of Sales
Manager Durant to- have practically
aU the 200 or more Chevrolet dealers
from all over the territory tributary
to the factory at Oakland, attend the
convention.
The day after tnelr arrival at Oak
land tho dealers are first to visit
tho factory and see the cars in tho
process of manufacture. They are
then to attend a luncheon, according
to the plans . of President Norman De
Vaux, and spend the afternoon in
tho convention hall. In tho evening
the entire battalion of convention
delegates will attend tho auto show
and get 'the enthusiasm of the open
ing blast. On the second day of the
convention, the morning is to be de
voted to business. In the afternoon
there is to be an auto ride through
Oakland and Berkeley, ending up
again that evening at the San Fran
cisco show. The third "day of ; the
convention is to be entirely devoted
to business up to mldatternoon, at
Which time the 'convention Js to come
to an official close. That -evening
tho dealers are to attend a Chevrolet
dealers' banquet wnlch' will be the
last acfof the first convention -of its
kind-rover held on- the Pacific coast.
The problem of maintaining roads
after construction is receiving seri
ous attention in California, according
to the observation of S. Benson who
says good results are being achieved.
Old macadam roads are now being
successfully treated.
Hew Koads Mors Expensive.
"Their new construction is no bet
ter than ours but more expensive,"
adds Mr. Benson. "They still have a
great deal of waste. For example.
near Los Angeles I found them tear'
lng up a fine macadem road prepara
tory to putting down a concrete
pavement. I said to the engineer.
'don't ycu know that It is a crime to
throw away' this fine base instead of
keeping it and surfacing it with an
asphaltic pavement?'
" 'Of course I know it,' replied the
engineer, 'but the cement manufac
turers . must be given consideration.' '
One great difference in good roads
sentiment between California and Or
egon, according to Mr. Benson's view
is that the people of California have
a much larger vision owing to the
fact that the economic value of Im
proved highways has' been more con-.
cretely realized.
Pignf Tar Ahead.
"For example," cites Mr. Benson,
"it is 200 miles from Redding to the
Oregon boundary. The country Is
non-productive one and very sparsely
settled. There is no local . demand
J for a good road. ' Yet It has been
decided to build a good one at a cost
of approximately S2.000.000. It is
figured that there are about 90,000
automobiles in Oregon and Washing-
ion ana mat many or these would
come to California every season if
there was a good road. This would
bring Into the state a revenue of ap:
proximately $1,000,000 every year. It
is very apparent that It is good
business to. "make an . expenditure
which will be returned In two or more
years.
Oregon Koads Bar. ;-
"If California will spend two mil
lion dollars to get the business of
90,000 automobiles, what a strong ar
gument for Oregon to spend a mil
lion dollars in Douglas county and get
the business from 200,000 California
automobiles. I found lots of tour
ists in California who said they
would like to see Oregon but would
not go on account of the roads Even
the residents of California would ex
tend their summer vacations into Or
egon if the roads were favorable."
Work Started 'on Highway System.
Modesto, CaU Feb. 8. (P. N. S.)
Work has actually started on the new
$1,600,000 highway system In Stanis
laus county, from Modesto to the
Sahta Fo at EJm.pl r a. It is hoped to
have B0 miles under construction by
next summer. The people authorized
the work on tho system at an election
last fall.
The new Owen Magnetic which is
now being shown In Portland by A. E.
Foss, of the Gibson Garage, was - a
most absorbing subject of discussion
in the circles which saw it at the Ho
tel Portland where it was displayed
during show week.
From its very entrance into the
building, it attracted attention. Two
long planks were put up over the
stairway on the Yamhill street side
and without anyone being at the wheel
Mr. Foss piloted it in the doorway,
standing at its side.
Car Movement Controlled.
The movement of the car was con
trolled entirely by shifting back and
forth the small lever mounted on the
wheel, and which controls the mag
netic clutch in the car. Once inside
the lobby, it was maneuvered back
and forth in the same manner, depend
ing entirely on Its electric power.
It was most uncanny to watoh this
big gasoline car,- controlled entirely
from the outside, back and start and
maneuver around the small space with
no one at the wheel.
aiso earttx sane s 'A.
The United States government has
just purchased three of the cars for
use in the facmc coast navy yams.
The interest of the navy department
in these cars might be traced to the
fact that the big collier Jupiter has
the electric transmission as also have
the new super-dreadnaughts New Mex
ico and California.
In explaining these Mr. Foss said:
Principle Involved.
"The principle involved In the elec
tric transmission in the. power plants
of Uncle Sam's greatest sbJrja, is the
same as that employed In tho Owen
Magnetic
"It is used In the navy because of
the fact that with these electric
transmissions it is not necessary to

a deserted appearance by the end of
the week as practically every other
dealer is leaving for San Francisco to
take in the big all-coasjr show which
will be staged in the exposition audi
torium February 10 to 16.
San Francisco's show will be well
attended by delegates from the north
west as some of the Seattle dealers
have made arrangements to Join tho
Portland delegation and invade the
town together. If enough Portland
men make tho trip a special rate will
be granted them by the Great North

accepted but at a recent meeting of the
board of directors this acceptance was
made official, and Mr. Reeves was del
egated to carry the best wishes of this
great organization to the Pacific coast
motor car-dealers.
Sals Conventions Expected.
It is more than likely that several
sales convention! -lmllar to those
held in New York for the show, will
be conducted during the San Francisco
exhibition, as practcally all Pacific
coast dealers will be present and it will
afford an ideal opportunity for factory
representatives meeting their western
organization. Convention rooms will be
provided in the auditorium for those
who with to meet there.

more for better roads than any other

Whenever a good roads campaign is
begun in Oregon or Washington the

his speech has won many votes and
been largely instrumental' in carry

Miniature Engine
Is Shown by Dundee
A miniature motorcycle engine was
on view all week in the exhibit of
Fred Dundee, .'the repair man, whose
showing has always ' been one of the
Interesting exhibits of the Automobile
show.
Tbo little engine has a bore of one
Inch and a stroke of the same size.
Tho Intake manifold 1 one Quarter
inch, Inside measurement. The power
which It develops is surprising, for In
different tests it has shown almost
a full horsepower. Fred Dundee rates
It a seven-eighths.
It9 duty at the show is to turn
over a reground motor crank shaft.
The flywheel on the motor weighs
seven ounoes and the whole engine
weighs four pounds? Figured on the
best principles of modern motor con
struction, the ratio of four pounds to
the horsepower speaks wall for the
motor. The motor was built in Dun
dee's shops.

BATTERY CARE
H The hardest work the battery
does is starting the motor, it is
a load which is forced on quickly
and uses a heavy current mo
mentarily. f How the battery will stand this,
dozens of times in a day, will de
pend, almost wholly on the care
given it and the care and condi
tion of the starting system. (
II To help you get the most out of
the battery at the lowest-cost is
our business. We will see that
the current consumed in starting
the car is no more than it should
be, that there are no shorts or un
energized systems which lower the
efficiency of the whole.
H Remember, inspections by our
experts cost you nothing and are
gladly 'given, day aid night.
