' : The average owner of a good autontobile whose car, entirely tree IroTu trouble, glides smoothly cTef the highways, month, in and monlli out, marrela "at its unfail lnsr dependability, unaware, : per. baps, of the elaborate and ; pains taking system employed' by the manufacturer to insure that char acter of performance. In no other industry is Inspection . more rigid, or are safeguards more firmly ad teed to. ; 'Xo other factor In our entire program of manufacture is a more Tital part of the production pro gram than our system of inspec tions and tests,? saya D. M. Aver ill, vice .president, and general manager of the Ajax Motors com pany. "It is only by constant, In sistent and repeated testing that a manufacturer is in a position to know definitely, - before a motor car is shipped, that its perform ance in the hands of the ultimate owner will be entirely satisfactory. Reports received by us from Ajax owners, many of whom have driv en their car thousands of miles, show .plainly that the character of performance fully justifies our policy of rigid Inspections and tests." 1 Visitors at the Ajax factory fre quently express amazement at the lengths to which the company has gone to assure perfect workman ship and materials. This work be gins with the raw materials which are not unloaded from the freight cars until definite tests have shown that they measure up to specifications and requirements in every particular. Then as each of the numerous operations is per formed in the various depart ments, inspectors must pass on them. Thus the possibility of trouble is eliminated at the very outset; finished units not only are closely Inspected but are thor oughly tested before going into he chassis. Motors are run on their own power for hours before they final ly are placed on hoists and swung into position in the frame; crank shafts, when finished, instead of passing on immediately to the mo tor assembly "i department, are checked on a balancing device,' to assure absolute balance. Connect ing rode and all , reciprocating parts are tested fori perfect bal ance. Definite reports are made and kept on each inspection of the multitude of operations en tailed in the manufacture" of the car, but even when the AJax,'om pletely assembled is. run J on "its own power; there is still one of the most important tests of all to be made. This final test, the ac tual, performance of the car under all driving speeds, la conducted on a brick track built and. maintain ed for that purpose alone.; This track lies Just outside of the final Assembly 'and the care as ,' thy come off the "line, are filled' wka gasoline and turned 'over to' driv. fcrs long trained 4 in motor-car eonstruction'and'performance.V When .the ear.
