Belief in the superiority of the eight-cylinder, V-type engine over every other type of power unit for illac chief engineer in an tnterv: following the recent annoucement of price reduction on all models. “Both from an engineering stand point and from the fact that more than 50 per cent of the owners of cars in the class at or above the Cad- eight-cylinder, V-type motor cars, it is evident to us that this type of en- gine {is most satisfactory,” said Mr. Seaholm. “At the outset, an eight-cylinder V;type engine, as designed by Cadillac is unusually short. One advantage in this is that greater room is pro- vided on the chassis for the body. A greater advantage is that a short en gine permits the use of a short crank- shaft, which is inherently more rig- id. It also permits the use of a short. er, stiffer crankcase, which obvious- ly holds the bearings more rigidly in line. “The crankshaft of the elght-cylin- der V-type engine also has. but four throws making for a lighter, stiffer, crankshaft. “Tho flow of power from an eight sylinder V-type engine is more near. ly constant than from an engine with smoothess in engine operation, par. tucularly at the lower speeds. “The cylinders, which are natur-. ally smaller than in an engine of equal horsepower with fewer cylin- ders, make possible smaller and light er pistons and connecting rods, in other.words, lighter reciprocating parts, which make a smooth, flex ible motor.” —_—__—»—__—— CHALMERS POPULARITY GIVEN GREAT BOOST BY THE MAXWELL INTERESTS As was the case at the show last year, the Maxwell interest occupies a strong standing position in the big event at the Arkeon this week.

The significance of giving Chalmers operations the full benefit of the Max- well organization, which during the last year had achieved such con spleuous success, was evident to everyone. Backed by the great finan- cial resources of Maxwell, it was con ceded that Chalmers might confident: ly be expected to take during the coming year a most prominent place among cars of its class. But, beyond a modest announce ment to the effect that the business of the Chalmers company will go on as in the past, that the sales of the Chalmers Six will be continued and developed along the lines that have been pursued in the Maxwell two years, and that plans call for a greatly enlarged production in 1923, no sensational stateemnt was forth- coming. new leadership, bids fair to rank with | Maxwell in unusual public acclaim. es Se a TWO MORE MODELS TC last afternoon and evening will ha an opportunity to inspect two represented by the Wyoming Oldsmo- + flac price are buyers of Cadillac|bile company which have not here fore made an appearance on the floor.

The motto of Chevrolet, “For Econom- ical Transportation,” is our sole guide in the design and construction both of our passenger and commercial models. We do not endeavor to produce the cheapest automobile but the most eco- nomical, because we are concerned in delivering the utmost per dollar of price in economical transportation. The selling price of an automobile, while important, is secondary to the cost of transportation throughout its life. This includes the purchase price and all operating and maintenance expenses for an average period of six years.

It is almost an axiom that the fast car is not a ready hill- climber; and that the one which excels on the grades, is not conspicuous for its speed. The one quality calls for a lively engine, one of stamina and endurance, as well as power. The other calls for the ability to bring to the work the de- termined strength of a fine mogul engine. The combination of the two qualities in the Peerless—the PEERLESS- are two phases of motor car performance seldom plea in the same car—certainly in such a pronounced de- ON DISPLAY TONIGHT AT THE AUTO SHOW NASH-CASPER MOTOR COMPANY capacity for speed and the capacity for hill-climbing—is one of the features about which owners speak to us most « frequently. They tell what satisfaction they find in driving a car—espe- cially in touring—which has all the fleetness a tourist could desire for the good stretches; and which at the same time literally romps up the grades with an ease that is a revela- tion. The fact that Peerless excels as it does in this important re- spect, is undoubtedly due to that great care in manufactur~ ing which is inspired by our desire to satisfy each individ- ual owner as fully and completely as though his Peerless had been built for him, and him alone.
