"has, In many Instances, been disastrous from cnrclMsness on the part of tlu driver through excessive speed- tllK "tP to a certain point, the speed of a dellxer cary can be utilized to Brent ad vantage In fact. It Is this Increased speed which gives delivery cars their tremendous superiority over horse , il'avvn vehli-Ies. Hut excessive speed will . caslon hlBh cost of upkeep and. In the cases of many motor truck owners, this Is tho direct cause of hlKh expense in their motor delivery service. KapH ucar on tires and abuse of the working parts of the motor are the most notice able effects which speed In excess has nn the car. "To eliminate this expense of undue wear and hlKh upkeep cost occasioned from speed, we have equipped Huppmo blle delivery vehicles with the Plerc speed controller, which , automatically controls and repulates the speed of the Tar to twenty mllea per hour. This In strument Is built Into the rhs Inlet mani fold and consists of an automatic throt tle operated by a centrifugal governor, driven from the front wheel. "The pas supply Is controlled by this throttle only when the pre-determlnrd ear speed of twenty miles an hour reached. Below this rate of speed the ear speed Is controlled by the accelerator pedal In the usual way. This construc tion allows the driver to utilize the full power of tho motor on first or second speed when neccssnrv and Is Infinitely -uperior to the ordinary construction In which the motor speed Is limited Instead of the cur speed. PLACEMENT OF LOAD KEEPS BIG TRUCK FROM SLIPPING "The trurk with motor under the seat produces the placement of the load too far forward," said Charles It. Shanks, Kcneral sales manaKer of the Keelly SprliiRfleld Motor Truck company of SprliiRflelri, O., at the show. "ThlB extra load coming on the front axle and not on the rear axle, produces a decreased tractive effoit. If there Is decreased tractive effort, there must be less of eflclency. Loss of efficiency means waste. "Side slipping Is Rreater In reality when tho weight Is distributed equally on the front wheels as well as on the hind wheels, because recovery cannot be ro leadily f fected through steerlnn dis abilities with this type of construction."
