But the new line is priced so that it will more [hnn ever demonstrate the place of tlie star car in the competitive field, challenging the list of standard-built cars in its new price class.

Detroit u#S on its police flyers Dock head four-wheel hydraulic brakes, yie same type ns those now provided on all t'halmers models. The four cars on which these brakes have heoq used since the city, adopted them nearly a yenr ago have been driven 25.000 miles without an accident, de clares Werner H. Helmboldt, super intendent of the department of munlc il»al transportation, against an aver age of two had accidents a month with the cars before these brakes were Installed. These flyers are operated from ts rious police precinct stations to an swer calls Involving holdups, burglar ies. shooting and other major crimes. The cars are driven through congest od Detroit traffic at break neck speed in the hope that police may reach the scene of the crime quickly enough to capture the criminals before they can make their getaway. Speeds in excess of 60 miles an hour are com mon. Taxi Growth Rapid. People want to ride on rubber. They are willing to pay a little extra for this privilege. Definite indications of this tendency are apparent in every section of the country as shown by the remarkable Increase in the taxi lab business. During the last six months the Yellow Cab company of Chicago lias been forced to increase its fleet from 1,700 to 2,500 calm and at the present rat# of business will operate approximately 100,000,000 miles this year.

An unusual experiment to prove the exceptional durability of the satin wax body finish on the new 1924 Oak land open models was recently carried out by the distributor of this com pany in San Francisco.

The Dehco Auto Knameiing com pany, 723 South Twenty-eeventli j street, invites the public to visit Its | plant and inspect the work. This coni i pany bakes enamels of automobiles, using the "Dehco process," which is a combination of moisture extraction and baking. Any car can be enameled success fully. The enamel ^-applied to the wood work as well as to the metal. All old paint Is removed from the body of every car and the surface smoothed down, and the enamel ap ] lied as ordinary paint. The car is then baked about three hours, which thoroughly dries the enamel, and leaves the ear ready to he rubbed down and another coat applied. One of the most satisfactory fea tures of this process Ls the short time necessary to complete a car. It only requires about one-fourth the time necessary to complete any other first class paint job. The shop work Is in charge of H. P. Hhephard, who ts r.ot only an ex perienced car painter, but has been using this process most successfully in St. Joseph, Mo. • Coupes Fall Feature. One of the features of the autumn's motor car sales has been, the surpris ing demand for four-passenger coupes. The only explanation factory execu tives awe able to give is that present models seem to please a greater por tion of the public than any preceding ones - the industry has offered. Of ficials of the Hupp Motor Car cor poration declare that their production of four-passenger coupes alone now approximates 3T* per cent of their total output, which is more than double Its usual ration CADILLAC Your enjoyment and satisfaction of the utmost comfort in motoring can be obtained only from Cadillac. A large volume of business on the new V-63 is bringing to our Used Car Department un believable bargains in practically new Cadil lac cars of the earlier models.
