Greater speed and braking’ capacity of the six-wheeler, say the army authorities, would in actual practice at least double the capacity of highways when using a train of vehicles of this type, as compared with a train of four-wheelers in general army use. More than 3,000 marines will take part in the maneuvers, and a large truck train will be required to trans- port the mass of impedimenta, In this train will be the six-wheeler, The six-wheeler is capable of speeds as high as 45 miles an hour, and the manner in which load and road impact are distributed over the six wheels results in a corresponding increass in comfort an‘ reduction in wear and tear on the vehicle.
