Sketched above are some of the new details and devices ard a model embodying some of sketches were made at the 1933 automobile show in New York. (Ry Associated Press) NEW YORK, Jan. 11.—Now America can look at Its new auto- mobiles. Twenty-nine 1933 model pas- senger cars and seven 1933 model trucks are on display at the Na- tional Automobile show here, showing everything from minor color changes and moflernistic body designs -to .. power, brakes, automatic clutches, free ‘wheel- ing and lipstick oil cans. The annual show is always the signal for the new drive for sales, and if initial preparations are an indication the sales effort will be as strenuous as ever. The industry estimates the sales effort’ will be as strenuous as ever. The in ustry estimates that 60 percent of all cars in use today are between three and ten years old, and the manufacturers hope that this year’s new gadgets and mechanic- al improvements will make the old car seem even older. The new cars are characterized by many refinements in chassis de- ; sign. Fentlers seem to sweep father back. They are wider in! front. Headlights are plaed at an inclined angle in the fenders, set in horizontal or perpendicular curves. Dashboards re _ simpli- fied, more artistic. Black seems to be the most popu lar color, but blues, yellowish- greens and browns also are favor- ad. - Theve are meny-twe-tone. col- or designs, and the use of strips of color adds length, Bodies are longer and wider and lower. Lines are curved to permit easier air flow around the car, fol- lowing aero-dynamic principles of streamlining. Several cars show extension of the power or vacuum booster brake principle, and automatic clutches. The brakes, it is claimed, prevent wheel-locking, reduce skidding, save tires, and permit better con- trol. The full automatic clutch is an extension of the free-wheeling principle whereby the clutch need not be used for any forward speed. { | the new principles.

Many schemes for fuel economy are utilized in the new cars.. One ‘device permits the driver to set a control lever to regulate the motor to yse of varying grades of fuel. Another fuel economizer automat- ically controls the temperature of the air passing to the carburetor. New starting controls permit the driver to start his engine by merely turning on the ignition and step- ping on the accelerator pedal. An- other control starts the engine from a button. Springs are longer, and auto- matic shock absorbers adjust them- selves to the type of road. Wide use is made of rubber in engine mountings and in other places to absorb vibration.
