United States Can
Use Twice Present
Number of Autos
C J.'Nfphler, General Sales
Manager, Oakland Motor
Company, Predicts Total
Will Reach 13 Million.
The United Sue can absorb twice
the number of junior vehicle rgi
trred at the (irririit time, according
to C. J. Nci'iilcr. Kcncral talci man
alter of the Oakland Motor Car com
pany. . '
"11 every date in the Union had
the number of motor car per capita
that Iowa has. there would be 20,'
(OO.(XX) passenger and commercial
carr in ue," rmon Mr. Nephlcr.
".Oi coune thii depend upon 'a
greater per capita wealth. Figurei
compiled contrastinff personal in
come taxei and automobiles per cap
ita indicate that invariably the atates
fthowinx a large number of return
fur )eronal income taxes likewise
show a large per capita percentage of
automobiles.
"The increase, in automobile pur
chases will undoubtedly continue In
creasing in the prosperous agricul
. tural 'communities. That , is borne
out by the motor density in such
rtates as Iowa. California, the Da
iiotas and Nebraska.
"In the rural .sections the automn
bile is a real necessity. The use of
the automobile has been increased In
these sections to a great extent by
the improvement in roads. In fact,
good roads are responsible for the
large number of automobiles in the
great, wealthy agricultural' states I
have mentioned.
"It will not be long before 1S.000,-1
000 passenger and commercial cars
;. will be in use. When this occurs,
there will be a renewal of approxi
mately 2,5(M).fHK) cart yearly, basing
the average life of a car as six years.
This tremendftus replacement alone
would be another great stabilizing
feature of the automobile industry."
Sets Record in
Mountain Climb
Studebaker Light Six First
Car to Scale Tillsbury
Knob, Pennsylvania. 1
A Studebaker light six' has just
. added new laurels to its many rec
ords for power and endurance, by
.' being the first car to reach the sum-
mit of Tillsbury Knob, near Nanti
coke, Pa.
For years the residents of Nanti
i coke and. vicinity,, have looked to
5 ward Tfllsoiiry' "Knob, one of : the
'highest metuptafW m Luzerne coun
ty, convtafiijjjteltiits heights could
never beetnetffcny VcKidW.'eifhcr
motor, or horse-raWn.
The: car that 'finally succeeded was
'driven by J. Williams of Nanticoke,
and the featnprpv.ed a test not only
, of the-s1urdlrjes oi the car but also
the ability of the driver. The ascent
was made over. -a mere footpath, for
, no road ' leads to the summit.
Boulders, undergrowth and even
trees furnished obstacles, in climbing
this mountain of shale and rock, but
the car maneuvered , its way upward
until the summit was reached. :
As an indication:,' of- the sharp
grades encountered. .during.. the as
cent, the mountain. -rises to a height
of 700 teet ih 'the course of t"he one
mile trip from base, to summit. The
Light-Six which made this unpre
cedented., climb under its- own . power
had "previously been driven "over
30.000 ' miles and still retained the
original front tires that came with
the car.
' Mr. Williams started up the moun
tainside with an ordinary pair of
automobile tire chains on the rear-
wheels, but the rough stones and
boulders soon broke them to pieces,
and a set of heavy half-inch chains
had to be attached.
On reaching the summit of the
precipice, the car reposed there for
one week. The headlights, were
turned on each night and the record-:
making Light-Six could be seen for
miles around. fi the end of a week,
the job of driving down the moun
tain was tackled, and proved almost
as thrilling and difficult as the ascent.

Packard Reaches
New Sales Record
Packard Motor Car company, ac
cording to figurei now available,' es
tablished in May the greatest monthly
record during alt of its 23 years of
ristory.
Shipments which could not begin
to keep pace with incoming orders
amounted to 1.748 trucks, Twin-Sixct
and Single-Sixes, representing a
gratifying sales volume of more than
$5,600,000.
This figure, referring to the number
of shipments, was, it is said, IS per
cent greater than that 01 May, WM,
which up to this year was the com
pany record month, it is also luu
per cent grcatrr than lor the corre
sponding month of. last year.
In spite of its increased production
facilities, which made the shipping
record possible, the company finds it
selfaccording to H. H. Hills, vice
president of the distribution unable
to ship Twin-Sixes and Single-Sixes
to enable the distributors to deliver
to their customers orders which were
placed several weeks ago.
Distributors who heretofore con
sidered 100 cars a year as represent
ing good business now want from
300 to 500 cars." he states. Distrb
utors who formerly had four dealers
in their territory now have four
times that number."

and the tire stock is arranged in plain
view of the customers. The office
is on the second floor and is con
nected with a stockroom where two
carloads of tires may be stored. The

6,000 square feet of floor space.
Kudiscll plans to handle both Uld-
field and Firestone tires, which wil!
include -. Firestone Flat Top pneu
matic and solid truck tires. A large
solid tire press has been installed.

Omaha for the last 12 years. At
one time he was. manager ot tne
and Rubber company and later was
Omaha branch of the Firestone lire
in charge of the Overland Tire fac
tory.

Dodge Brothers
Build New Coupe
Closed Car for Business Men
Is Distinct Achievement in
Automotive Field.
Behind the simplo phraseology of
an
announcement' which Dodge
Brothers, Detroit automobile manu
facturers, are publishing in every im
portant city and town in America,
lies the story of a new achievement
in automobile development. "Dodge
Brothers announce a business coupe;
conservative changes in the body de
sign of all other types,", the adver
tisement reads.
The business coupe is the first all-
steel closed car ever marketed. In
this respect it takes a new and dis
tinct place in automotive history, for
it involves an entirely unique prin
ciple of coupe body construction. The
steel body not only practically elimi
nates the problem of limited produc
tion, due to the tedious and costly
individual workmanship required on
wood 'bodies, but' also 'enables 'the
manufacturers to give the coupe the
same lustrous baked enamel finish
which has already . contributed so
much to ...the reputation of Dodge
Brothers open cars.,. This process in
itself will also facilitate quantity pro
duction, as an enormous amount of
time was consumed heretofore in ap
plying the numerous' coats of paint
required oh wood.
Dodge Brothers offer to the business public of America
an entirely new principle in Coupe body construction.
From framework to window mouldings the body is built
of steel. It is the first all-steel closed car ever marketed.
This design anticipates every possible requirement of
commercial travel. It insures unusual quietness
unusual grace unusual stamina. It has made it possible
to give the Coupe that same lustrous baked-on enamel
finish -for which Dodge Brothers open cars have long
been famous.
The upholstery is of genuine leather leather that will
wash and wear. The seat is wide and comfortable.
Carrying compartments are accessible and spacious. The
car is equipped with a heater, dome light, window levers,
windshield cleaner, cord tires, Yale door locks, and every
other appointment necessary to the owner's comfort
and protection.
Built inside and out to withstand the wear and tear of
everyday use, it retains the same lightpess and beauty of
line which you are accustomed to look for in Dodge
Brothers cars.
It. is the Business Coupe' which business people the
world over have been expecting from Dodge Brothers.
The price is $980 f. o. b. Detroit
