Emmena and Woodford both have made algned affidavits that a party of the men, unbeknown to them, appeared at their respective homes and asked for food and cloth ing. They appeared well' dressed and were refused help. Later both um pires - received threatening letters which Chief McCredle has In his pos session and are being Investigated by the police. . Portions 'of the letters are aa fol lows: Umpires Emmena and Woodford.

On a recent test, two cars of different makes, with speedometers set at 0, were given each two gallons of gas, and driven the same road till they stopped. The top ear went 7 miles farther down the road than the low car, yet the low car's speedometer showed that it had gone farther than the top car." Paper miles and road miles may be two quite different things. It is easier to build a speedometer that will read 70 miles an hour than a car that will go 70 miles an hour. A Detroit man who has. a summer home in Northern Michigan, began several months ago to drive his first Ford V-8. He says: "My watch tells me that I go up north in less time than I did before, but my Ford speedometer says that I go at slower speed, and the trip registers ' fewer miles. In my former oar the speedometer speed was higher, my mileage greater on this trip, but with my Ford V-8 I go in less time and use less gas." There' is no mystery about that. His former mileage, speed and gas consumption were delusions. He figured by a speedometer that did not measure accurately, and was not meant to. All his costs operations, re pairs, upkeep were calculated on a wrong basis. A wrong speedometer misleads on all these items. Some car manufacturers Justify this practice. They say it is Just as well for a driver to think he is going 70 miles an hour when he is going only 62. Hell, let that pass as to speed; does it Justify telling every driver that he is getting more mileage out of his car than he really is? A speedometer measures speed AND mileage: should it cheat on both? Speeding up a clock cannot create more hours any more than speeding up a speed-meter can oreate more miles. An hour is sixty minutes long. A mile is 5280 feet long. Ford mileage and Ford speed are accurately measured they are there you get them no one gets more. Anyone can buy speedometers and have thea "fixed" anyway he wants them. We deal with manufacturers who know our strict stand on accuracy and are glad to meet our specifications. The limit of variation in Ford speedometers, a limit that cannot be avoided in manufacture, is 2 at 70 miles. We get our speed and mileage out of bur engine and wheels, not out of our speedometer.
