DETROIT. Mich., November 20— There's heen a doiible christening in the Ford car family. . When the newest member, a sedan with two doors, arrived on the scene, announcement 6f which is just made, there came with it the question of & name. For several days the folks just couldn’t decide what to call the baby of the family until, from quite an unexpected sourse, there came the happy suggestion: “Let's call it Tudor.” And Tudor it was christencd, a name quite in keeping with the aris- tocratic appearance of the new car. “How about renaming the other medan?’ some one asked and then came this reply: “We might call it the four-door Ford or—Ah, that's it! Ford or, For- dor. Simple and expressive, isn't 112" So there are two Ford cars with brand-new names, the Tudor and the Fordor, MYSTERIOUS VIBRATIONS. Passing Cars, Out of Tune, Puz- zle Motorists. That strange vibratlon a driver hears when passing another car on a Lill is ofttimes vey startling, but al- ways easy to explain. In passing an- wther car on a hill it will often seem « though one motor or the other v running unevenly. Sometimes the drivers are conscious of the pres- ence of a firing order which is almost uncanny. It has been known to frighten mo- torists of exceptionally keen hearing. What really happens is that the driv- «rs become conscious of a compound firing of the two motors, which be- ing out of tune with each other result in freak vibration. It is particularly noticeable when a six-cylinder pas- senger car exhaust s heard at the »ame time with that of a four-cylin- der truck. THE SUNDAY: Rains Hit Roads to Florida, Tourist Writes N. M. A. Here Travel Heavy, Says Letter to Fred Caley Describing Conditions After Two-Week Drive. Road conditions from Washington to sunny Florida are graphically de- scribed by a motorlst in a letter to Fred Caley, secretary of the National Motorists’ Association. Autolsts about to attempt a trip to Florlda In the near future will do well to study this interesting account. The letter to Mr. Caley follows: “I returned in November from a two-week motor drive in the south, golng to Washington and then to Co- lumbia, S. C. 1 went by the sand-hill route and came back by the so-called ‘pavement route. “The roads south of Washington are in such a state of rebullding and detours that I think it might be well for the N. M. A. to issue a statement in vegard to them, additional to the pamphlet which your office furnished me before I started and which the N. M. A, representative dn Washington ry kindly corroborated. The roads to'the wouth this fall and winter are in bad condition during and immedi- ately after rains. All persons making the trip down to Florida should be advised to lay up during rain storms or not to_start out immediately after storms. When dry the roads are not dangerous or diflicult, hut at this sea- son of the year tourists should be careful not to try to travel in rain or immediately after. Tourists Crowd Roads. “I found the roads filled with tour- ists. Every description of motor car; every kind of luggage, from the road- side camper and the house-built auto- mobile to high-powered machines, whose travelers stopped at the best hotels. All were in trouble in wet weather. 1 saw many Serlous situa- tions, and this Is early in the season. As the rainy season develops, with a hundred thousand machines and mox. to follow to Florida this winter, the traveling situatlon is going to be serious. “The route south of Richmond, via Raleigh, Southern Pines and Colum- bia, is a sand-clay route. The roads are being laid out in broad fashion, but the surface for a considerable portion of this mileage—539 mile through Richmond and Raleigh—is 80 new that during and after rains It is dangerous. All motorists should be advised to drive with double chains, and not to wait until they get in the ditch. When the road hardens from Richmond to Raleigh, Columbia and Augusta, as shown on the N. maps, this will be an excellent gravel sand-clay road. but much of it is too new to be classed high this season This road passes over the sand-hill formation almost continuously. Th other route from Richmond, through South Hill, Graham, Greensboro and Charlotte, I8 what is known as the paved route. There are a number of stretches of road enqualing the best bLetween Cleveland and Buffalo, but the road is so far from bel ed, the detours a dangerous in " motorists will do better in rain son to take the sand road through Raleigh and Columbia. rather than to try what will ultiznately be the pavement through Greensboro and Charlotte. “I went one way and came back the other and had a worse time on the upper route because it is essentially a clay country and the pavement is =0 far from finished, the detours are so long and, after storms, danger- ous that the N. M. A. Is doing right to direct traflic over the Rafeigh route rather than over the Greens. boro route, and vet I found tourists caravans and columns of cars daily traveling south on both routes. Loeal Directions Needed. “Local directions are necessary everywhere, due to the conditions of the surface, tha detours and the con- dition in which the work gangs have put the roads at any particular time. No_one should start out with maps and route directions from Washing- ton and go straight through. He must inquire at the best hotels and garages daily and sometimes oftener than that. “The detour at the bridge over the Haw river, N. C, at Graham, which had such a steep descent to the river level and climb up the soft clay, is now a thing of the past. By careful work traffic is allowed to proceed over this new, unfinished concrete bridge. “Traffic cannot proceed on the pave- ment route south between South Hill and Oxford. It must go to Henderson and then across to Durham. Between Thomasville and Lexington there is a bad detour. Garage men will dlrect the motorists how to take circuitous country routes that are better than the detour in the rain and avoid hard- ship. There is a long secondary route from South Hill through Rox- boro to the upper pavement at Bur- lington of seventy miles or more which in dry weather the motorists can take instead of going from South Hill to Henderson, Oxford, Durham and Graham. This Roxboro cut-off saves considerable mileage and is a well-ballasted, sand-clay road in dry weather, but motorists should not ous and M .\{ & finish- | take it going south without getting the best advice obtainable at’ South Hill. The other route is to go to Henderson, Oxford and Durham, which has forty or more miles of very rough going before you strike the pave- ment. Large Town Hotels. *“The hotels on either route are good in large towns, provided arrange- nents are made in advance. The mo- “torist should not attempt too high a mileage. He cannot be sure of mak- ing it. no matter how high-power his motor, for it is not a question of speed, but one of staying on the road One hundred and seventy-five to 200 miles a day, with start at 7 o'clock and booking at your hotel at 5 or 550 means the motorist must make an early get-away and an early tura-in. It is impossible to drive after dark on the roads in the south in their present usual condition. One of the troubles with an early start from the southern hotels is that they do not serve an early breakfast. This has to be specially arranged. “Garage service is much improved and filling stations, with reasoncble prices, are ready at hand on both routes. The pavement route through Greensboro and Charlotte has many more substantial towns, and therefore hotel accommodations, than the sand hill route. Richmond or Peterboro, Raleigh or Southern Pines, Camden or Columbia, and Augusta—all have good accommodations on the sand hill route at the end of the day’s run, “When the North Carolina road- building program is finished the trip 1o the south will be very much easier. South Carolina is not spending as much money, but it is fmproving its sand-clay roads. Virginia on Movem- ber 6 defeated the bond fssue for new iroads. The citles voted for the bond issues, but the rural districts against them.' No one who travels over the roads of Virginia during tne autumn or winter can understand why the farmer voted against ood roads und his own interests.” GHECK-UP ON TRAFFIC SHOWS WIDE TIRE USE Engineer Counts Autos Against Animal Vehicles Passing His House.

Today, according to Miller tire men, the average s very far in excess of these figures. ICE ENOUGH OUTSIDE. Before It gets too cold to perform the vital preparations for cold weather motoring be sure to drain out the gas tank. A certain amount of water and sediment frequently colleots at the bottom of the iank during the summer period and unless this is drained out it is quite likely to cause trouble by freezing. Its bad enough to have lce everywher: outside without having it in the very place where it would interfere with the flow of fuel to the vacuum tank. STAR, WASHINGTON, Put New Grease In Cups Before Cold Weather Did you know that when grease stands it has a tendency to cake and thus prevent proper lubrication? If not, better clean out all the grease cups before cold weather sets in and reflll with fresh, soft grease. The old grease in the cups Is about as useful as soap and stioking there at the bottom of the cups their capacity for fresh lubricant is really restricted. Also d1d you know that if it is de- sired to drain the transmission the car should be left standing in & heated garage overnight th the drain plug removed? This is better than using kerosene to thin out the old grease, as kerosene is recognized as detrimental to the bearings of the transmission, some of it always re- maining to thin the new lubricant and thus cause trouble. UNIFORM TRAFFIC LEGISLATION ASKED Taxicab Owners Throughout Coun- try Pushing Cause With Police. Uniform traffic regulations and sig- nals throughout the country is one of the specific objects for which taxicab owners are working with the police, trafic and safety heads of nearly a hundred cities, who met in conference with them at the National Assoclation of Taxicab Owners' convention re- cently held in Chicago. “To my mind, one of the most im- portant things in connection with safety Is the uniformity of trafic regulations,” sald Mr. Thomas P. Henry, president of the American Au- tomobile Association. “Uniform traf- fie rules all over the country will not ouly simplify the problems of safe driving, but reduce the heavy toll in buman life. With a wide variety of regulations and signals, it is little short of marvelous that there are not more accidents, TraMle regulations, to be effective, should mean the same all through the country and relate not only to the interest of the driver, but to the pedestrian as well.” “If you start from Chicago to drive New York, said Charles Ket- ring, president of the General Mo- tors Research Corporation, “I don't care how familiar you are with the Chicago trafiic rules or how sincere you are, you will get into trouble he- e you get to New York. I know Ity you are sure to get into in, becauss thers everything is_exactly opposite to what it is in every other place in the world. But when 1 get confused in a strange city I fall in behind a taxicab and follow m and come through all right.” Tho individual owner is responsible )r_one car, but your companies are ssponsible’ for a larke number of cars,” he contlnued, “and you are the 1 organization that can do the ng we are talking about. because thase things concern vou colleatively, and your combined efforts will pro- Quee the result of preventing acci- dents.

Wills Sainte C., DECEMBER 2 Here is something to include in the examination of fcants for auto operator’s perm| ‘Why does a pe- destrian cross the streetP’ Quality of Motor Minds. An interesting point in motoring has been raised by Robbins B. Stoeckel, commissioner of motor Vehicles of Con- necticut. In a recent address Mr. Stoeckel declared that many people do not possess the necessary mental requirements for handling a motor car, claiming that “mind” is just as much of a requirement as physical ability, knowledge of the law or con- trol of the car. Where examinations are required of applicants it is true that “mind” is not directly vonsidered as an ele- ment in the Jicensing and that, as a consequence, it is reasonable to sup- pose that many people who are granted the right to drive will de- velop tendencies even more undesir- able than, let us say, drunkenness. But there is another side of the question to consider, If it is true that the “green” driver is licensed on the theory that he will improve with practice why, then, is it not possible for the appli- cant with a weak mind to beceme hetter equipped as he proceeds to Lecome motor wise? A number of educators are author- ity for the statement that the auto- mobile is raising the level of intelli- gence, which suggests the thought that it would not be right to bar certain people from driving simple because they do not pass cer- tain psychology tests which are sup- posed to establish their mental fit- ness. It has frequently been pointed out born as well, who previously did not understand plain direction signs nor know a line of law are now greatly improved mentally. The automobile is an_education itself, and it might even be contended that to deny thou- sands the right to drive would be to deny them an oducation process which they would not otherwise gain. The states figure that, through practice, drivers will become more capable. ess not make Iur beut‘r minds? Tell Ul, Walt. Walt Mason sings a good ditty about how he sticks to the quiet roads until he is competent to tackle trafiic. Good advice, Walt, but where are thess quiet roads? The 0ld Mechanic Says: “A motorist has to be careful in economizin’ that he does not lose more than he galns. And this sug- gests the possibility of makin' every act of economy do double duty. Tve seen car owners cut down on the carburetor adjustment to a point where they were actualiy making the engine carry a double load. paving the way for a trip to my shop in re- turn for s#vin’ a few cents’ worth of gas. T've seen other motorists do things that really saved without any losses offset the »sults of thelr ceonomy. But U've yet to find man who _could make one act of econom result in two savimgs at the same time. “I can be done. Only the other day 1 showed one of my customers how by reversin’ the usual order of things and adfustin’ the carburetor for a richer mixture it was possible to save more gas in the long run, through less waste of gasoline in startin’. and economize on oil through cooler nperation of the engine which had a better mixture for hill climbin’. hat chap who just stopped for gas saves a lot of fuel in the course of a yvear by always swttin’ off the ignition and coasting to a standstill when he knows éexactiy where he's going to land. But he doesn’'t figure that when he coasts to a stop the car is entirely dependent upon its brakes to bring it to a standstill. except when he happehs to be going very <lowly and_has plenty of time to do the job. This wastes brake lining and offsets in cost the value of the gas he save: “If he really wanted to make his economy do double duty he would switch off the ignition, leave the car in gear up to the last minute, save a little less gas and save a lot more brake lining. “It a cAr owner would only sit down and study his economy problem he would quickly see importance of this new angie to it Practice vs. Theory. Theoretloally external contracting brakes ought to operate better after a long run than when the car fs just starting off. This is due to the ex- pansion of the brake drums, which automatically makes for a tighter ad- Justment of drums and bands. Engi- neers claim that this point has to be considered in laying out plans for brakes, and many drivers say they have noticed the increasing efiiciency of their brakes as the drums heat. | But the average motorist will find Automobile Owners, Look!! cars | that many foreigners, and American- | ‘Why should the same proc- | Have you arranged for the storage of your car?

EDITED BY WILLIAM ULLMAN that though the drums may expand a little in running, the Increased braking effect is lost through in- creasing inefliclency of the brake lin- ing, as well as the adjustments. This is very clearly indicated in the case of burning the brake linings when descending a long, steep hill. In this case while the drums are expanding to their maximum the brake lining is being polished and burned to a point of minimum efliciency. And the re- sult is that the gain In brake drum expansion is more than offset by the loss of brake lining efficiency. For Ivory Hunters.
