0 ue a work Is entirely eliminated
from motor diugnols by means of a
Motor Analyzer recently Installed In
the service department of Wlthnm
Super Service. This device accurately
and visibly records the exact condi
tion of the various units that go to
make up the equipment of a car's
motor.
"By means of this Motor Analyzer."
said Clay Witham. "a complete and
accurate checkup may bo made at all
vital points and clearly Indicated so
that the car owner may see for him
self the true condition of his motor
and know what adjustments may be
netet-sary to restore the original pep.
power and speed."
The Wicdcnhoff Motor Analyzer
consists of a portable testing bench
upon which are mounted a variety
of instruments and leads for con
nection to the various units on the
motor. It may be wheeled alongside
the car and the testa made with the
owner present.
If a valve, for example. Is sticking.
It will be shown plainly by the mark
ed oscillation of a dial. Other de
tails show the condition of the tim
ing. Ignition, carburetor, compression,
etc.
As the analysis of the motor pro
ceeds, the condition of the motor and
Its various units are marked on a
sheet, which Is then given o the car
owner, who may use his own Judg
ment ns to what work he will have
I done. But through the use of this,
1 all guehwork ts eliminated and he
: may drive with a feeling of certainty,
knowing Just what he may expect of
the car.
Clay Witham has Just returned
from San Krancisco, where he spent
10 days thoroughly familiarizing him
self with the new equipment. Mr.
Witham has also added a new-type
Aerometer for the testing of automo
bile radios and a Jewell set-analyzer
for complete automobile radio serv-Ire.

FLEET OPERATORS
A tribute to the aturdineas and
economy of the new Ai rat ream DeSoto
Is written In the large ntimber of or
ders that have come In for these cais
from fleet owners from coast to coaat.
according to l. O. Peed, vice presi
dent of the DeSoto Motor Corpora
tion. '
"Successful fleet operators must be
critical buyers of motor cars." Peed
said. "They look for economy, riding
comfort, dependability and strength
"One of the most enthusiastic of
recent fleet buyers Is the Yellow Cab
Company of California. This organi
zation has purchased 132 specially
designed Alrstream tax I cabs and ex
pects to add more units until their
Alrstream fleet numbers 600. The
company operates cabs In Oakland,
San Francisco and Los Angeles.
"According to George E. Worster.
president of the company, gasoline
mileage haa Increased more than 35
per cent since the new Alratreama
were put into operation.
"In designing the Alrstream cabs
for the California company, unique
safety devices to reduce the hazards
of accidental Injuries were incorpor
ated In these cars. A red light on the
daah flashes a warning If either of
the rear doors are opened or Inse
curely shut. Accommodation lights,
on the roof above the rear dors, aerve
an ornamental and useful purpose
An automatic dome light Illuminates

FOR CAR DRIVERS
The Oregon "Uniform Motor Ve
hicle Safety Responsibility Act" which
wss enacted at the last session of
the state legislature and becomes ef
fective on July 1, 1935, will odubtless
prove doubly beneficial, according to
Medford Insurance agencies In recent
Interviews. They briefly outlined the
principal provisions of the law and
explained how It will be a factor for
Justice and safety.
The act provides that any motorist
who fails to satisfy, within 30 days.
any final Judgment which ts the out
comeof an automobile accident caus
ing the Injury or death of any person
or property damage in excess of tioo
will forfeit his right to drive or reg
lster any motor vehicle.
For the purpose of this law. a Judg
ment shall be considered satisfied If
$5,000 Is paid in the case of one per
son Injured, $10,000 In the case of
more than one person Injured (sub
ject to the limit of $5,000 per person)
or $1,000 In the case of material dam
age to the property of others when
ever a Judgment shall be In excess
of these respective amounts. This
does not lessen in any way, however,
the plaintiff's right to civil action to
recover the total amount decreed.
In addition to paying the Judgment
the defendant motorist must also
furnish satisfactory evidence of his
financial ability to re&pond In dam
ages for any future accident for
which he may be held legally ac
countable. This Important new law applies not
only to Oregon residents but to non
residents as well. Furthermore, this
lav is effective as regards Oregon
mc torlsta wherever the accident oc
curs or resultant suit is brought.
Immediately upon receipt of any such
final Judgment rendered by any court
of competent Jurisdiction anywhere
tn the United States or In any prov
ince in the Dominion of Canada, the
secretary of state of Oregon shall' im
mediately spspend the defendant's
Oregon driving license and registra
tion certificate.
Further, any motorist whose Oregon
driving license or registration certifi
cate has been suspended for any
cause must prove his financial re
sponsibility before he Is again per
mitted to operate or register any mo
tor vehicle.
Satisfactory proof of financial re- :
sponslbtltty for future accidents may
be furnished In either of three ways:
(1) by depositing with the state
treasurer cash or acceptable securi
ties to the amount of $11,000: (2) by
filing an acceptable surety bond to
the amount of $11,000. or (3) by car
rying $5,000 ($10,000) automobile lia
bility Insurance and $1,00 automo
bile property damage Insurance cov
ering all motor vehicles owned by the
assured, such insurance to be Issued
by a company authorized to do busi
ness In Oregon or In the case of a
non-resident In the state In which
the motor vehicleis registered, or If
the non-resident does not own a mo
tor vehicle, then in the state In
which he resides.
This law will make more certain
the payment of damages to the In
nocent victims of motor car accidents
and. what la more important, will
tend to m akeall motorists operate
with greater regard for highway
safety.
