The action is simple, positive and rapid. A slight pressure on the service pedal (the method of operation is unchanged) and all four wheels are retarded—the car is quickly, smoothly and safely brought to a stop. With these proved Buick four-wheel brakes a stop is made ina much shorter distance with a minimum of skidding danger. Obtaining braking friction at four contacts with the road increases tie De power and lessens the wear on each brake lining and each tire.

Moffett, chief of the naval Jair service, that coon, probably next jyear, the ZR-1 will set out for a trip to the North Pole and back. “Safe, comfortable and swift transportation in lighter t liners has arrived in Americ: Commander Weyerbacher. ‘The ZR-1, while a war craft of the air jand not a passenger carrying ship, has demonstrated already that a new era in world travel has arrived. The navy’s new airship Is safer than any other vehicle of transportation, including railroad trains and steam ers, And certainly {t is a vastly more comfortable thing in which |to ride.

This also is well under way now." Captain Heinen, who has flown untold thousands of miles in Ger man Zeppelins and, as pilot, has arried 10,000 passengers with never n accident, asserts that within the |next three years a trip from the |Atlantic to the Pacific at 75 miles an hour through the clouds, will be s0 commonplace as to arouse little Jor no comment and travel to tt \far countries of the earth great |rigid type airships will not be un usual, | “It will take but a short time for the public to realize the safety of air travel in ships of the type of the ZR-1,"" said Captain Heinen. “Noth | ing can happen to this ship while | she is in the afr. There could be an accident only when she is moored to the ground outside of her ha and th only through a terrific g of wind.” This confidence of the builder and test pilot of the ZR-1 is felt also by Captain Frank McCrary, commander of Lakehurst naval air station, the home of the giant na ship, and the man who probably will be in jcommand of the ship when she sails ‘for the North Pole, Calculations made after the his {toric trip of the great silver ship over New York and Philadelphi eptember 11, showed that it has AIR CRUISER SCORES BIG SUCCESS nd Swift Transpor- 6,974 MILES OF PAVING IN. dest imagination with their t gaunt steel mooring masts and down into the heavens, - CITIESOFULS, were more wovere than ever betore Interesting Data Com- had been given an aircraft motor. | .
