Motorists Must Be Protected From
Excessive Rates, Says Chrysler
Transforming steel; ribbon Into
roller bearings is one of the inter
esting operations carried oat in one
department of t,he Highland Park
plant of the Ford Motor company
in which a number of special Ford
designed machines plajr an import
ant part. ; '. I !iM.;.i:;:';i.ft!r
Just bow much activity there Js
in this department may be gained
from the fact that 125 miles of
steel ribbon is used daily in the
production of roller bearings at the
present output schedule, permit--ting
the assembly of 51,600 com
plete bearings; everjr day. f i, ; ! ji If j
The 1 steel ribbon i used Is ; fire
? thirty-seconds of an inch thick and
about half an inch wide. It is
wound in Ford desined and ! built
machines known as "winders" and
when it emerges from these ma
chines is in, the form of a heavy
spiral rod with a narrow, opening
through the center. The rods are
-cut into proper lengths ; for I the
. rollers, and the short lengths are
then hardened and tempered. -
- Grinding operations in which
the rollers are ground to very close
limits are carried on in other Fcrd
designed machines, known as "cen
terless" grinders in which the j.ro
cision necessary in the rollers s
easily regulated. .' j- ji; i :! pjj
The last operation before the
r6Ilers are finally assembled l aud
welded in the cages Is one through
which every finished bearing must
pass the proess of being de-magnetized.
Practically every bearing
after having passed j through the
various manufacturing operations
carries a certain amount of mag
netism. If this remained the roll
ers would have a tendency to pick
up and retain small pieces of Steel
that might by chance get into the
sleeve of the ! bearing. i; It is not
likely, of course, that any harm
would result even if this magnit
Ism were not destroyed but the pol
icy- folfowejjl is another bit of evi
dence that the Ford Motor Com
pany leaves nothing undone to- in
sure the utmost of service iu all
; itS products. 1 ' -j
Wl ALTER P. CHRYSLER, Pres
ident of the Chrysler Corpora
.tion, who evolved plans for the
marketing of Chrysler motor cars which
protects the purchaser from excessive
financing charges and excessive insur
ance I rates, is determined that thos
who; buy; cars bearing his name shall
have' them at the lowest possible
prices, i i'-'-h ' '
For many months Mr. Chrysler
made a comprehensive study of the
sale of motor cars. Finally he came
to the conclusion that too much monej
was being paid for financing nnd in
surance requirements. After further
study ; Mr. Chrysler decided that the
one iwsv to effect a substantial snv
ing of from 80 to 40 per cent of the
combined cost of financing and of fire
and theft insurance rates, m as to take
advantage of the mass purchasing
power of the Chrysler Corporation.
"The public muU be protected from
excessive rates commented Mr.
Chrysler, in New York. "At the fac
tory we watch the expenditure of ev
ery cent. Keen competition necessi
tates that cars be placed in the hands
of. the ultimate users at the lowest
possible price. Why then shouldn't
we be equally diligent in saving the
purchaser everything we can.

An idea of the volume of inter
state traffic may be gathered from
the tabulation of visitors to the
national forests In 192 4, most of
whom w$re traveling beyond the
borders of their native state. The
California, Colorado and Oregon
figures in the table probably. In

j. For cooking an occasional meal
over the open fire, a wire camp
grid will be found useful. It is
made of heavy galvanized steel
Wire and reinforced with flat steel
bars. Two small grids will serve
the same purpose as a large one
and will require less room for car
rying under the seat cushion.
In many sections of the country,
open fires are barred, so even the
devotees of the grid must provide
themselves with some sort of a
gasoline stove. If a vote was taken
among a' number of experienced
campers with regard to - camp
stoves, the two burner type gaso
line stove with folding oven would
undoubtledly gain preference over
any other type of cooker.
The gasoline stove is far super
ior to the wood burning stove as it
eliminates the collecting of tire-
wood and does away with the both
ersome smoke and ashes nuisance
Then. too. there is no waiting for
the stove to become hot enough
for cooking, as it provides full
