THREE NEW MODELS | ADDED TO IMPROVED : CHRYSLER GROUP One of Types Is First Six of Name to Sell Below $1,000, at the Factory Walter P. Chrysler today an- nounces the introduction of three new lines of six-cylinder cars bear- ing his name. the new cars. Among the wholly or- iginal features introduced by the “77” and “70” are: The multi-range gear shift, an en- tirely new principle in power con trol; the synchronized power sys tem, engineered as a unit from radi- ator to rear axle; downdraft fucliza- tion, a scientific advancement in car buretion; larger and more powerful engines, for increased speed wider | performance — po=sibil paraflex spring suspension chimney-type rubber shock i erding the last word ; architonic bodi¢s, new the science of their design and c struction; new riness and that transcend sting ide and new ry and ele- gance with t chrysler finesse. These outstanding features are in sense of the word original and e for the first and “70.” Architonic Body The “architonic” principle of body construction is an e ler development that revolutionizes the science of body building. This ue of dreadnaught strength, all interior joints of welded steel, poss measurably increased safet; itudinal and lateral shifting action of the body have been reduced to a minimum, and the elimination of metal contacts and the use of hard- wood throughout disposes of all an- noying squeaks, rattles and rumbles The new synchronized power sys- tem completely balanced and engin- eered as a unit from the radiator to the rear axle, attains the effect of one scientificaliy unified mech- anism. <All models are powered with engines of the famous Chrysler * gilver dome principle, which gives high compression power with ordin- ‘@ry fuel. In the “77” and the ‘*70,” the large crankshafts are fully coun- terweighted and supported by seven interchangeable main bearings of @enerous size. They have aluminum alloy pistons with invar-struts and tongue-and-groove piston rings, a rigidly webbed crankcase, full-force feed lubrication, impulse neutraliz- er, oil filter and scores of other re- finements. The “’ develops a maximum of 93h. p. at the brake. It has a bore; of 3 3-8, a stroke of 5 inches and dis- | placement of 268.4 cubic inches. 1 “70” has a bore of 3 1-8, a stroke 4 3.4 inches and displacement nee cubic inches. It develops . Pp: Shift is Exclusive An important element of the syn- chronized power system, the exclus- ive Chrysler-built multi-range gear ehift, unlike any other gear shift in, use today, Chrysler engineers say, renders the control of a car far more simple, more effective and safer than ever before. It has four for- ward speed ranges: heavy duty— starting—accelerating and driving range. The accelerating range per- mits unequalled pick-up and _ hill climbing, while the driving range is a direct drive and allows high car speed with comparably slow engine speed. Chrysler presents for the first time the revolutionary downdraft! carburetion, a principle of fueliza- tion new in automobile engineering. Airplanes have had a somewhat sim iliar system. The carburetor is mounted above the engine instead of at the side, permitting the fuel to flow downward aided by the force of gravity. In the updraft type, the fuel mixture must always be lifted against gravity. This simple, funda- mental difference produces an amaz- ing gain in horsepower. and the “70,” the Chrysler decarbonizer employs a new fuid, “carbosolve,” which elim- il he deposits that cause carbon i in the engine. Contributing to the greater riding comfort of the Chrysler cars is an- other striking advance—the paraflex spring suspension, designed to ab- sorb torsional strains, contro] re-| bounds at the cars’ extremities by checking the impulses of unsprung weight, and deaden road impacts be- ine they can be imparted to the car ly. ney type rubber shock insulators in place of metal shackles, doing away | with all need of lubrication and justment.

TDE HAS SWITCHED FOR DURANT MOTOR Under New Management For- mer Losses Have Turned to Profits by Larger Sales he Wall Street Journal: Following as- sumption of the management of Du- rant Motors, Inc.. by interests form. erly associated with Dodge Broth ~ with F. J. Haynes, president—the financial statement as of December 31, 1928, shows a favorable condition upon which the new management may carry out its development along sound and conservative lines. For the year ended December 31, 1928, the company reports an operat- ing profit of $644,307 and after cx- traordinary adjustments, a net loss | of $682,435. As an offsetting factor there are write-ups of $4,293,783, making the total loss to surplus ac- count for the period $3.015,393. As of August 31, 1927. the company re-/ ported a deficit of $9,813.061 and with the additional loss of $3.015,393, this has been increased to $12,828,454 as of December 31, 1928. Book e of Stock, $12.48 a Share Notwithstanding this large deficit, the company has an excess of tangi- ble assets over liabilities amounting to $21,895,571 applicable to the 1,753,- 798 shares of stock outstanding. giv- ing the stock a book value of $12.48 a share. Roughly, this equity is divided $12,000,000 in net liquid assets and $10,000,000 in net fixed and other as- sets. Accompanying these financial changes, there have been many changes in the physical constitution of Durant Motors. tors, Inc., the parent company whic! controls the following subsidiaries: Durant Motor Co. of N. J., manufac: turers of sheet and metal for bodies Durant Motor Co. of Michigan, oper- ating the chief manufacturing plant Durant Motors of Canada, and sub: sidiary companies in Syracuse, Mun- cie and Kane. manufacturing parts. During 1928, the company sold 115,200 cars, compared with 80.900 the Previous year. During the first five |months of 1929, output was 48.665 gible and the engine is properly cool- units. Approximately net profits of ;Durant Motors for the first four, speed. months of 1929 were $100.000. Net in April amounted to $400,000, offsetting & loss of $307,000 in the first quarter of the year.

A terrific strain centers upon it, not | only every time there is an explosion of gas in the cylinder, but also each time the piston reaches the top or {bottom of its stroke. Wear inevitably | results both in the pin and the piston boss in which it rests, resulting in | looseness and rattle when a car is , humming along at a constant speed. While not harmful to the engine, this | pin rattle frequently has proved a/ source of annoyance to drivers. | Not until a new type of piston pin ‘construction was discovered did the problem yield to intensive engineering study. A new principle of pin con- struction now has been evolved which virtually eliminates pin rattles for the lifetime of a car. This involves the | pressing of an aluminum plug into each end of the pin. Aluminum, high- ly sensitive to temperature changes, expands under the heat of a running motor, and the “swelling” makes the piston pin fit tightly in the piston. { The new method of construction was worked out under the direction ‘of B. H. Anibat, vice president in | charge of engineering of the Oakland |Motor Car company, and pins s0/| made are now standard equipment , on all new Oakland All-American and | Pontiac big sixes. CROSS-FLOW IDEA | IN COOLING WORKS! Oakland Motor Company Sure It Has Best System in | Radiator Design er i | With the advent of the dog days bringing the peak of summer heat ‘and the peak of summer touring, the | warm weather operating advantages of the cross-flow radiator become in- ‘creasingly evident, it is pointed out | by B. H. Anibal, vice president in charge of engineering for the Oak- Jand Motor Car company. An exclusive feature of the Oak- land All-American six and the Pon- tiac big six, this new radiator em- bodies patented features of design | which enable it to reduce loss of | water vapor to a point far below that | of any other system, Mr. Anibal as- serts. “The cross-flow radiator,” he sega | tinued, “differs from the conventional design in that the water passes horl- zontally through the core instead of vertically from top to bottom. Hot water returning from the engine en- ters a closed vertical tank at one side of the honeycomb core. After ‘cross-flowing’ through the core the water enters a vertical return or cool water tank at the opposite side of the honeycomb. “Even under the most severe con- | ditions of heat and sustained driying ;the new principle employed in the cross-flow system proves 80 efficient that loss of radiator water is negli- \ed regardless of weather, altitude or ‘VIKING IS GIVEN HYPOTHETICAL PULL, | Towing Dynamometer Registers What Car Would Do on Impossible Road If it were possible to build a road from the lowest depth in the oceans to the peak of the highest mountain in the world, would it be possible for an automobile to drive up this grade, ‘an clevation of nearly 12 miles, with- out overheating? While such a road is an impossibil- ity, yet the engineers who designed the use of the new towing-dyna- mometer at the General Motors prov- ing ground, one of the many testing istered on a large dial located in the truck driving compartment. As an added measure of efficiency and for checking purposes, the oper- ator of the towing dynamometer and the driver of the car being tested maintain telephonic connection with each other by means of special tele- phones placed in the two vehicles. COVER 18,244 MILES ON 8-CENT CAR COST Other Expenses of Capital-to- Capital Tour Were Gas and Oil A motor trip of more than 18,000 miles without thought of engine ad- justment and at no cost whatever ¢x- cept for gasoline and oil is well with- in the realm of motorist with a mod- ern automobile at his command and endless milcs of good roads before him. Such was indicated, at least, by the recent tour of Leslie Morrison and Norman Neal, of Lawrence, Mass., who visited every state capital in the country in 29 days in their Marmon- built Roosevelt straight-eight sedan. Aside from traveling 18,244 miles in 29 days, the remarkable part of this journey was the expense log of the two men, which revealed a total ex- penditure of only eight cents on the ecight-cylinder engine of the Roose- velt car. This sum was spent for a nut and bolt. Not once during their trip did Morrison or Neal lift the hood of the Roosevelt to inspect or replace a spark plug, to examine the distributor or to adjust the carburetor. Not a tool of any kind was taken in hand for use on the engine, nor was & mo- ment lost in repairing or adjusting any one of the many minor ailments which oft-times arise in cross-country trips as well as in ordinary day in and day out driving. Of interest to the layman was the 600-miles-a-day performance of the Roosevelt car, not only over paved and improved roads and boulevards but through the mountains, the desert and the natural topographic obstacles to smooth and uninterrupted touring enjoyment. 'Interpreter Zahn Back From Indian Council - Held in Black Hills Frank Zahn, interpreter at Fort Yates, Indian office, was in the city today on business and announced that he had returned from the Black Hills but three days ago, after at- tending an Indian council there. About 5.000 Indians attended the council, said Zahn. Business was talked and a lot of sport put on. There were races and rodeo riding, Indian dances and a big time gen- erally for several days. Resolution Opposes Scrapping Flagship Minneapolis, Aug. 10.—(#)—A res- olution opposing the scrapping of the famous old United States navy cruiser Olympis, flagship of the late Admiral George Dewey at the battle of Manila Bay, was adopted today at the final session of the annual con- vention of the fraternal order of Eagles. Colonel W. J. Grayson, annah, Ga., national commander of the Spanish-American war vet- erans, offered the resolution. Installation of newly elected offi: cers and memorial services for broth- er Eagles, who died during the past eal brought the convention to a close. Hotel Men Kept Busy By New Food Trends Dettgit—()—Food fads that sweep the country are causing much sitting up nights on the part of hotel culi- nary ge oe J. Hennessy, vice-president of the Hotels Statler company, told at ® meeting here of the work imposed on large hotels by the changing di- etetic fashions. “If an accepted authority tells us that a person suffering from ane- mia should have calf’s liver,” he said, “then we in the hotel must be ready to serve calf’s liver.

D., Aug. 10.—Still denying any connection with bank robberies either at Gwinner, N. D., or Denhoft, four men charged with the crimes were brought to the Cass county jail near midnight Friday and lodged there for safe-keeping. i Arraigned in Forman, N. D., county | seat of Sargent county, Friday after- noon, they waived a preliminary hear- ing and were bound over for trial at the session of district court which be- 1} gins next February. Bonds were not furnished and they will be confined in the Cass county jail until Febru- ary, and then will be taken to For- man. Three of the men, George Smith, Thomas Kirwin and John Grant, the barn on the Benson farm near Gwin- ner, have become less emphatic in their denials, according to State's At- torney C. O. Stockstad, who accom- panied the men. John Mitchell, arrested the morning of the robbery, however, still disclaims any knowledge of the other three men or of the robberies. The men were taken first to La Moure to get a permit for their re- moval to Cass county, and then to Fargo. Stockstad was loud in his praise for Leonard and Ruben Benson, who first saw the men running from the bank, opened fire on them, and succeeded in hitting three of the men. Later one of the youths found the men hiding in the Benson barn, after they had been 6 | searching the greater part of the day for traces of the bandits, Grant, who had 130 No. 6 shot from a shotgun in his body when captured, was still bothered by his wounds wheh \ he arrived in Fargo, and was limping.
