THE -T H I R D G RE AT Automobile Development 'All automobile engineer-: ing might well be divided' into three phases. Three distinct problems, have been met and solutions found. - The first was to make the automobile depend able. This was done with' the four-cylinder motor. The second was tomakc it more powerful and eas ier to drive. This was done with the six. ' The third phase has been to make the automobile smoother to make it effort less and the driving an unnoticed task. This has been done with the straight-eight the third great autoinobilcdcvclopmcnt.
