One of the main reasons for elis- liutchlng the cars was to demonstrate the sufety feature of the four-wheel brakes; and In order lb Ho' this thor oughly, It is planned to offer a demon stration to police department officials in the more than 1,000 cities and towns through which these ears puss. As it is well known that the amount of braking power is governed by tho friction resistance of the tires against the road, by distributing the braking effort over all four wheels, Oakland obtains not only mure positive brak ing, but smoother deceleration. There is consequently less wear on brake bands and tires and less strain on the chassis mecliunism. It is impossible to lock the front wheels on a dry pavement. . The tendency to skid has lieen prac tically eliminated because the whole tendency of the car la nut to skid but to continue going forward in the orig inal direction of travel. Even on a wet iMivement this holds true. Tlie four-wheel brake mechanism on the front wheels lias lieen so arranged that in turning, the outer front wheel brake is automatically released which insures perfect control of st<*ering at nil times. Tills menus tlmt even in turning a corner at high s|s*ed. when it is necessary to apply the brakes, there will be no danger of skidding. The brakes are easily accessible, be ing of the* external contracting type and tlie only adjustment necessary be ing at the bands. Tlie use of demountable disc steel wheels on all models greatly facilitates liny adjustment and also simplifies the wot-k of changing tires. Tin* prices on the new models have lieen reduced from $.'iu <>u tlie roadster to $150 on the five-passenger s<*dan, making Oakland the lowest priced six- cylinder ear with four-wheel brakes on the market.
