C. Con (Director of Traffic, Buick Compony Motor Let us consider the gasoline motor as a transportation agent, and see what has happened since its inception. In the year 1900 the ordinary trans- portation of the country was con- ducted by railways, We had prospered mar- velously in the preceding thirty years. Railways had expanded by leaps and is and it could be said that they asonably prosperous. Inlani » especially on es, where coal, iron cre and lumber were radv-d in greet quantities. There seemed to be a guod and con stant demand fo: 3 number had ne steamers and horses. 267,000 in the country, ith a value of 0797,907,000,00 Then came the automobile; start- ing at first as a luxury or an o3 1 ment and rapidly becoming a neces- sity until now there are about 11, 700,000 pasenger and freight motors in use in the country. Yet the horse has managed to hold his own through all this new compe- tition for the Government figures show that on January Ist last, there were 18,853,000 horses, with a value of $1,300,000,000 in the country; 600,- 000 more than in 1900, and a valuation per horse neariy doubled, It may be said that more horses could have been produced if the motor had not come. This may or may not be true, for during the late war per- iod, when prices reached a maximum figure, there were about 3,000,000 more horses than at present, but this was wholly due to the European .de- mand. Good horses seem to be liké good butter and eggs—they can not be over produced. As late as May 1923, eastern papers published a news item from Boston reporting greatly increased sales of horses, mules and ponies, and said that dealers were surprised’at the big de- mand for work horses. Now what does all this mean com- mercially’ “The railways are taxed to thelr capacity, the car and locomotive shops filled with orders, and the horse, col- Jectively, is as busy as ever. then can we say of the 11,000,000 odd motor cars and trucks which are chugging along in city streets and throught country by-paths? If they are all busy and yet have not taken business from the railways or the horse, they certainly must have created new business or have come.into existence just as the world was reaching a new era of prosperity which would have fallen flat if the motor had not happened—if Haynes, Ford, Druyea or some other genius had not just happened to be inspired at just the right time. For many uses in towns and cities where short hauls and frequent stops are made and where the horse does part of the thinking, there will al ways be a demand for his services. No gasoline motor can stop a milk wagon exactly opposite your door while the milk man is on the opposite side of the street doing his part of the job. If it were possible to build a motor shaped like a horse, no one would care to ride it, for it would lack the almost human touch and friendship of the horse. Can you :|imagine a Ford or a Buick pushing its radiator into a kitchen door to |-| be petted by a farmer's wife or given a lump of sugar by the children? No, TIRES WITH 500 NAIL HOLES LEAK NO AIR Mr. K. K. Milburn of Chicago has invented a new puncture-proof inner tube which, {n actual test, was punc tured 500 times without the Ions of any air.

That’s what the Chandler owner enjoys — thanks to the phenomenal high gear capacity of the Pikes Peak Motor He can roll along so slowly in high that pedestrians pass him. Yet the pull of his motor is flawlessly smooth. “- The instant the road clears he can “give her the gas.” And his car leaps ahead in a swift, unlabored, silent rush. He can drive for blocks without touching the gear lever — without slipping the clutch — without riding the brake—without nursing his motor in any way. That’s unadulterated driving delight! And it is possible only because the performance capacity of the new Chandler power plant was developed on the highest automobile climb in the world. No other motor quite equals it.
