DEGREE VARIES WITH LOAD
TI1K OMAIJA SUNDAY
r
The. number of automobiles In this
country has now passed the two-million
mark, which. Indicates a tiro output of
about 12,000,000 for this year. Figured at
$16 each, which In conser-atlve averiure,
a value of fl!'3,vui,wii win wrewni tne
year's output.
, Statistics which have Just been conv
piled by tho experimental department of
the Goodyear Tire and Itubber company
show that 30 per cent of this enormous
sum Is bring squandered by Ill-advised
loading of tires. In other words,
4,000 will be wasted this year through
, failure to observe proper precaution la
.the matter, of loading tires.
Mr. P. V. Litchfield, factory manager
of the .Goodyear Tire and Rubber com
pany. In his paper presented before the
Society of Automobllo Engineers at the
summer conference, suggested a remedy
for this waste by the adoption of a slld-
, Ing scale of carrying capacities and In
flation pressures. This Is essentially the
adaption of the air pressure to the load
Imposed on the tires.
"Long, experience has shown that these
loads and air pressures are the most
satisfactory combination for maximum
service and effective cushioning." says
Mr. Litchfield. "The quantities of com
fort and easy riding must be recognized
as vital points, equally as important as
tiro durability. Why are pneumatic tires
used at all if not for easy riding qual
ities The degree to which a tire Is flat
tened against the ground varies with the
load. For every tire load there is a
definite percentage of tire deflection
which bears a direct relation to the In
flation pressure. Obviously, then, a
scale of relative carrying capacities and
inflation pressures, If properly observed,
.will tend to eliminate the enormous waste
now caused by huphazard methods of
loading and Inflating.
, .Welsh . Font and Rear. ;
The. loud properly assigned to a tire
should . be the actual load on tho lira
with "the cm' fully loaded. The actual
load on each tire can be ascertained by
weighing first tho front of U.e fully'
loaded CaA-then the rear, dividing each
.Bgutpbytw tt eUthe, load, per tire.
I can then" be inflated to the proper
pressure for that particular weifrht, as
Indicated by the scale of carrying ca
pacities and lulntlon pressures. A cer
tain tolerance In pressure should be al
lowed for leakage, but before the pres
sure drops 30 per cent the tire should be
pumped up aeain.
"Keaflzlngi of course, that every con
sumer has a right to his own Ideas as
to what constitutes good service, and
that no practical inflation schedule will
cover all possible conditions of service,
tho ' following ' schedule is offered and
recommended as a guide under normal
conditions:
Uross carrying capacity, pounds per
tire, Including passengers and complete
equipment-.

Enger Auto Co. to
Put Out Thousand
Dollar Twin-Six Car
- Another big sensation of the year In the
automobile industry is news that the
Enger Motor Car company has placed a
twelve-cylinder car ori the market to
sell for tho revolutionary price of 11,096.
Shipment of demonstrators already has
been started and the company officials de
clare that they are now prvared to make
deliveries 'to purchaser In a short time.
The. EngJDr company ; Is widely known
as a successful manufacturer of motor
cars, having developed a elx-cyllnder car
which last season met with a moat fav
orable reception from the public. The new
twelve-cylinder car will bo built In Its
entirety In the large Enger factory at
Cincinnati, where the experiments and
tests have been diligently conducted for
months. "
The absolue secrecy which shrouded the
company's plans causes the announce
ment of the . car to come as a complete
urprlso even to those closely connected
with the industry.
. In appearance, the car is striking, with
long, low, racy lines. The wheel be e of
UTi Inches has given the designers ample
leeway for a roomy, attractive body.
Painstaking rare In tho coruttruct'on of
the body Is obvious to the observer.
-The predominating feature of the motor
la Its perfect smoothness and lack of vi
bration at al engine speeds. This Is due
largely to the emsll bore of the pistons,
as well as to the fuct that the reciprocat
ing parts are extremely light, being
about one-half the we'ght of those used
in other twelve-cylinder motors. The
mall piston weight and small explosion
give the car an unusually wide range of
high gear activity. Those who have rid
den In the Enger "twin six" say that it
U remarkably flexible, running from high
speed to one mile r.r hour without a
. change of nea r.

car that you have ever driven, and against
1 1 the Enger Twin Six is better than twice
as smooth; better than twice as quiet.
Here you have a faster pick up ; greater
flexibility and a more perfectly balanced
flow of abundant power.
Step on the throttle and Instanta
neously you sail from a standing start to
racing speed.
All vibration and noise have been
completely eliminated.
In short, here Is a degree of silence,
speed and power which cannot be ob
tained In anything but a Twelve Cylinder
car.
And the price !s only $1095!
Understand, when we put a car on the
market we stand behind it just as Pack
ard or Ford would. We have the finan
cial strength to back this up. We have
just as much at stake. Our reputation
is just as valuable. Refer to Dun or
Brad street and you'll probably be sur
prised to find that we have the same
rating as Packard and Ford.
This model Is the direct result of a long
period of careful preparation, designing,
testing and experimenting.
- Nor are we announcing a car, as many
other manufacturers have done, that is
only in the blue print stage.
Production is already under way.
We are tuned up and tooled up to do
business.
Material has been purchased for a large
production.
Demonstrators can be delivered to deal
