"Careful study and thorough tests of existing sixes and fours in the low priced field convinced us that the Six was the most efficient and satisfactory, and In the long run the most economical automo bile.

American Road Builders' association to the need for act'on and the program committee has provided for an exhaustive discussion of the sub ject at the Twelfth American Good Roads congress and Thirteenth National Good Roads show; to be held In Chicago, January 1$ to 20 next. The elimination of grade cross ings w;!l be one of the pffases con sidered. (3ni of 12,000 persons killed on the highways of the country last year, 7000 were struck down at prade crossings. Investigation has shown also that one motorist in every three is careless at grade crossings, ap proaching the railroad tracks at reckless speed and without tak ing due notice of approaching 4 pa Ino The Pennsylvania and SoUthefa Pacific railroads, especially, haVe been heavy sufferers from: grade crossing accidents. On the South em "Pacific lines alone during the past three years 1909 motor cars ad trucks were wrecked n the grade crossings. In 490 : cases or more than 20 per cent, the mo torists deliberately ran Into the trains. In 122 instances; atttos plunged through the crossing gates. Nine crossing flagmen struck down. ; .In 970 eases in which motor ists ran in front of the trains. 136 persons were killed and 40S were Injured. In 490 cases motot cars stalled on the crossings and were demolished. Forty-three cars actually collided with the danger signals. An investigation conducted re cently hy the Maryland State Roads commission demonstrated that most highway accidents occui on long stretches of road instead of St the curves and are due to speeding or reckless driving, rath er than fiklddingjT . A total of $4,500,000 was paid out In death clamis by American insurance companies for the 12,- 000 persons killed on the high ways last year. In addition to the fatalities there were 1,500,- 000 non-fatal Injuries. . Automobile fatalities fn 191 were 9542. la 1919 the number increased to 9826. Considering the 12,000 accidents last year and baBing their calculations on the experiences of St. Louis. Cleve land, New York, Chicago and other cities for the first six months of 1921, experts estimate that this year's fatalities on the highways will reach 15.000. A total of 690 person Were killed on New York state roads and cUy Btreets during the first 'six months this past ?eaf. Of this number 403 met their death in New York city. At a recent drawing of space for the good roads show in Chicago o per cent of the 40,000 square feet of space was taken, breaking all records and necessitating the use of additional buildings to house the exhibits. Approximate ly $1,500,000 worth of labor sav ing road machinery and applian ces will be i cxhibtied. At the good roads congress to be held during the exposition. many subjects of importance to highway users will be discussed; including the strengthening of ibrldgeslto carry the ever increas ing truck loads and a more equit able distribution of taxation for the construction and maintenance of highways. Last year federal, state and municipal taxes on mo tor vehicles .reached the stagger ing sum of $316,720,000 equlv. alcnt to $34 per car. Governors of states, county commissioners and mayors of cities throughout the country are being asked to appoint delegates to the con- eost of taaterials which have fol lowed the return to normalcy. Eegge" & Burrell., local represen tative of the, Willard Storage Battery ; company, say Jhis Mm haj tecently announced their new All-Rubber battery. This Is a battery using the i Willard com pany's patented threaded rubber insulation, and their new Mono blo (one-piece hard rubber ccn tiner. The combination makes a battery that is rubber inside and rubber outside, and is practically indestructible. .1 Degge & Burrell also ay that this company has standardized on the use of rubber gaskets lor sealing the post and the coverot the cells, so that the batteries are now absolutely leak-proof at this point. This type of, con struction greatly simplifies man ufacturing and affords a very sat' isfactory method of making a leak-proof Joint between post and cover. At the same time it fa cilitates dismantling and reassem bling of the battery in the least time and with the least difficul ty. 'I The third advance has been made in the use of their bone-dry batteries which are made and shrpped without electrolyte and preliminary charging. j There has, been more than 100 per cent increase in the use of these bat teries ty service stations, and o per cent Increase on the part of car manufacturers. This again, works to the benefit of the new car .buyer as well as the purchas er of a replacement battery who now finds It possible to buy brand new battery one . wntcn has not been wearing itself out before they came into possession of it.
