FOR MOTORISTS
WASHINGTON. D. 0., March SO,
Bcboola far Tlolstori at an adjunct
for trafflo law enforcement pro-
grama have proven auccefui, ac
cording to the American AUwrnoDu
aMoclatlon.
The announcement la bawd on a
, nurvoy conducted by the Safety and
Traflto Engineering department of
the national motoring body.
"These achools have proven merit
orious In several typaa of aae, in
cluding Juveniles, adult offendera
who would have been Indifferent w
a fine, and instance where a fine
would have constituted ft hardship.
Thomas P. Henry of Detroit, Mich.,
president of the A. A. A., said.
"Violators schools, many of them
sponsored by A. A. A. clubs, are now
In operation In Berkeley. Los Angeles,
Oakland, Piedmont, Ban yrancwoo,
and Tracy, Calif.; Wichita, Kansas;
Detroit. Mlch.i Minneapolis, Winn.;
fit. Louis, Mo.; Portland, Ore.; while
there are plana underway for auch
Institutions in other states ana
cities." The statement continued:
"These schools arc baaed on the
generally accepted principle that edu
cation Is an Important factor In any
comprehensive program for the re
duction of highway fatalities and In
juries. Magistrates are constantly
faced with the fact that quite a
large proportion of violators do not
have s proper understanding of traf
fic regulations, or causes of acci
dents, or of the principles of safe
driving.
"Oenerally. violator turned over
to the school are Juveniles or per
sons whose Infraction of regulations
has not heen serious enough to war
rant a severe penalty, decision In
tuts matter being left to the dis
cretion of the Judge.
"Violators In many cases are com
pelled to attend night school by the
simple leflnl expedient of passing sen
tence and then paroling the violator
until he has been 'graduated' from
the trarflo school. In some Instances,
the driving prlvllrges of youthful
offendera are taken away until the
school's course has been successfully
completed.
. "Most schools bold their sessions
In the evening, once or twice a
week, with courses ranging from one
to atx sessions. 4
"Subjects covered Include: Cause
and prevention of accidents; traffic
regulations; enforcement; proper car
care from a safety standpoint and
safe driving practices. Examinations
on these subjects are given regu
larly nnd some schools requtre a
good mark on test papers before re
leasing the violator.
"In several cities, when the vio
lator has completed the school course,
he must present his credentials to
the court ' in which his case wan
originally tried before his parole Is
ended and unconditional driving
privileges restored."

An ordinary frulf glass Jar plays
an Important part In the gasoline
economy tests conducted by engi
neer, of the Graham-Paige Motora
corporation to determine the ' fuel
economy of the Graham Six, the
latest contender In the loweat price
range.
The Jar la attached to the In
strument panel of the car and is
connected by a tube to the fuel
pump. It contains one quart of goso.
line and Is In full view of the
driver. Thus, the quart of gasoline
Is messured against the speedometer
reading to determine exactly the
mileage obtained.
The results of these test proven
to be startling, showing 34 miles to
a gallon at 38 miles sn hour and
20.4 mllea at 60 miles an hour.
These teats were msde In cold wea

It was Indicated that the results
would be Improved considerably In

In the Hudson and Terraplane sedans
for 1935 tho window regulator lor
the rear-quarter window has been
placed above tha glass instead of
below it. As a result, the regulator is
out of the way and does not tend to
reduce the width of the rear seat as
happens when the regulator is placed
below the glass.
Throughout the entire car every pre
caution possible has been taken to give
the passengers as much clear free space
as possible. In the front compartment
when the Electric Hand is employed
there is no gearshift lever to interfere
with the center passenger of the three-
passenger front seat The emergency
or hand brake lever has also been taken
away and placed beneath the cowl
where it is accessible to tha left hand
of the driver. Thus, there is nothing in
tha way of the two passengers in tha
front scat
The rear seat has been widened eoa
siderably over the last year's dimen
sions. Jn addition, tha upholstery has
been so designed that the passenger
has full advantage of the increased
width. Placing the window regulator
above the glass Is one of the examples
of the thoughtfulness of the Hudson
snd Terraplane engineers when it
comes to roominess.
SEASON FORECAST
DETROIT Steadily Increasing new
car sales and the unparalleled de
mand for models with built-in trunks
on the roar, presage a rocord-break-
ing touring season this year. In the
opinion of H. Q. Moock. vice presi
dent of the-Plymouth Motor Corpor-
a Mont
Mr. Moock voiced the opinion to-
dny, as he stood at one end of the
half-mile long Plymouth factory here
watching new cars roll off the final
assembly lines at the rate of three a
minute. Almoat every other cur com
ing off the linos Is a trunk model.
"The coming summer and fall
probably will see more tourists on
American highways than any other
touring season," he Bald. "The lure
of the open road Is upon us this year
more than ever. Motorists have etny
ed pretty close to their homes dur
ing the past few years, but this year
things- are different. People have
more money to spend; they foel more
secure In their Jobs; the uncertainty
Is disappearing.
"Everybody Is planning a vacation
this year and Judging from the de
mand for new cars, almost everybody
Intends to travel. Naturally, better
cars and Improved highways have
stimulated this urge to go places
and see things."
Mr. Moock pointed out thnt Ply
mouth sales have increased every
week this year over the correpond-
lnk weeps of last year. He said with
This week we will discuss and
compare another one of the foreign
cars with ths American version- This
car Is known as the Mercedes-Bens
type 300. The only car which I have
been able to find with which It
could be reasonably compared Is the
Standard Chevrolet. These two cars
have approximately the same wheel-
bases, hut the overall height of the
Mercedes la only rive feet two Inches,
which means that this car Is around
two inches wider than it Is high.
In the Mercedes you have a choic
of two bodies while In the com
parable American car you have five
different models to choose from.
An item which aeems strange to
us Is that the Mercedes has only
horsepower while some of the lowest 1
priced cars In America have as much
as 85 or 90. This small Oerman car
has a top speed of better than 70
miles per hour, however, and It gets
from 31 to 29 miles to the gallon of
gas. This car also has all four wheels
Independently sprung, which Is a
feature you do not find on any car
In America, with the exception of
the transverse springs on the Ford.
Standard equipment on this car In
cludes s built tn trunk, remote con
trol rear window curtain, ash trays,
ctgar lighter, dual windshield wipers,
special Jack mounts, electric direc
tion Indicators and bumpers front
and rear. The two body models of
fered are a four-door aedan with
built In trunk, and a four seater.
convertable cabriolet, with built-in
trunk. The aedan model Is extremely
conservative In Its lines, and we
are afraid It would not receive much
recognition here in America, but
the convertable model Is very gocd
looking and can compare very fa
vorably with the average American
car.
the first signs of spring retail deliv
eries showed a sharp upward trend.
"Plymouth retail deliveries for the
week ending March 16 reached a total
of 7.973 units,"' he said. "This was a
gain of B.3 per cent over the previous
week and 13.9 per cent over the same
weeks of 1934. In the first 11 weeks
this year, our dealers sold 69,273 new
Plymouths, an Increase of 65.4 per
cent over the 41.873 units they de
livered at retail during the same
period a year ago."
APPLE EXPORTS OF
STATE INCREASED
PORTLAND, Ore., March 30. (AP)
Portland's lumber and apple exports
for March were well above those for
March, 1934, the merchants' exchange
reported today.
Lumber exports were 19.281.960 feet
valued at $296,473, more than 5.000.
000 feet In excess of last year's March
exports and 3,000.000 more than ex
ports for February of this year.
Apple shipments were 84.537 boxes,
nenrly 20.000 boxes more than in
March, 1934. However, apple ship
ments were less than In February,
which practically closed the apple
shlpptng wa&on.
Wheat shipments remained incon
sequential, only 833 bushels leaving
the port.
General cargo exported during
Mrch was valued at S739.792, com
pared with 91,324.039 during February
and $751,647 during March, 1934.
