'" 1 More than one hundred entries for the next Glidden tour and the support of ,v ery motor club, trade association, cham ber of commerce, and municipality on the route of the tour la the net reault "of Charles J. GUdden's run over the Lakes-to-the-Gulf route between Detroit and New Orleans. While .Mr. Glidden received a great ova tion and found many forces at work In the Interest of touring contests and good roads, he also dlscoered that many or Kanlxatlons and public officials who had taken an active Interest In the tour, did nnt hnv ft nroiwr understanding of the purpose of the contest, nor did they know that the contest was open to them. Mr. GUdden's suggestion that tne routo be reversed so that the start wi oc iimue - t-., i-k.in ami h finish in Detroit in New Orleans and the finish in D' was receUed enthusiastically in uk v.iv mnt rlv nnri (hff nlfltl hal Deen suommeu m h. Amerlrsn Automobile Association with the assurance of urcatcr support than the original itinerary. That some one is responsible for a seri ous omission in failing to present the Glidden tour In the proper light was the opinion of Mr. Glidden when he ar rived In Vicksburg. Miss., and learned that Ituslnrss Men's League and seieral Indi viduals had been anxious to enter the tour, but did not know that they were eligible. When Mr. Glidden found simi lar conditions In Clarksdale, Greenwood, and Jackson, he became comlnced that the postponement of the tour because of lack of entries would not have been neces sary if a representative had been sent into the field to lay the matter before the proper people. Before Mr. Glidden had reached Indian apolis, the second night stop of his tour, he was told that many persons who might eally ha c entered cars in the tour, were deterred by the impression that the tour was a closed event and thcy did not learn of their ellgibilitv until Mr. Glidden Issued his invitation to motorists In gen eral to join him in a tour over the official route. Another factor which kept down the entry list was the opinion that the route nnd schedule of the American Automo bile Association pathfinder was impossi ble. Tills belief existed een in New O--i.n nnd It vas not dispelled until Mr. Cllfdden's car. and one of the Maxwells which won last J ear's contest. arried in New- Orleans on schedule time. Mr. Glidden personally certified that the two curs covered the route on the official schedule of running time and his certifi cate was indorsed bv Gov. I K. Hall of Ixiuislana. The Governor was one of the guests at a banquet to the Glidden tour ists at Baton Rouge, and he has taken an nctUe interest in all projects for the good of ro.id building and motoring. Wht-n it became known that the route was not impos-ihle. though extremely dif ficult, an entry representing New Orleans was immediatelv promised and Mr. A. Schaffenburg. a retired business man. told Mr. Glidden that he would enter his car and take his family. M. E. Hart, of the Knterprlse Electrical Company, who organized the New Or leans reception to the. Gliddenites. assured Mr. Glidden that his trip from Detrclt to New Orleans had gien a new impetus to the touring and good roads movement, making it certain that New Orleans will be properly represented in the contest next June. Other cities which will have entries, but which were not known at the time the tour was postponed, are Memphis, Nash Mlle. and Louisville. Individual entries will be made by private owners in over a dozen cities on the route. With the certainty of a large field of entries from places on the route and ns hurance of support from large cities an jacent to It. Mr. Glidden has recommend ed to the American Automobile Associa tion that H. II. Robinson, of the Wolver ine Automobile Club, be sent through h territory to work up and organize the tour. Mr. Robinson is chairman of the runs and tours rommittee of the Detroit organiaztion. and Is thoroughly conver sant with the situation, having accom panied Mr. Glidden over the entire route I AUTO owners!

Mr Th,. r.i-H .. , Mr. Johnston resigned his position with the Bulck Company last August to be come the Southeastern representative of the Republic Motdf Company, with bead- quarters in Philadelphia. That he would meet with success In his new field was never doubted by those who know the prodigious worker, but that his rise to prominence In the motor world would be so rapid was bejond the fondest hopes of his ardent admirers. Mr. Johnston assumed his new duties November I. Ue takes entire charge of the sales department of the Chevrolet Motor Company, the Little Motor Com pany, and all of the subsidiary com panies of the Republic Motor Company. In selecting Mr. Johnston as general sales manager It is the opinion of all familiar with the energetic young worker thati the officers of the Republic Motor Company have chosen wisely, nnd his career will be watched with keen Inter est by tho many friends he left behind him in the National Capital. and meeting the principal workers in each city. The Commercial Auto and Supply Com pany reports having made the following sales during the past week: A Stude- baker "2U" delivery wagon, to Peter Latterncr; Studebaker "50"' touring cars to the following persons: H. C". East etday, SC D. Blackistone, C. R. Ilawlett, and Dr. W. H. AVunder. A Studebaker delivery wagon was sold to George M.

Much of this nd was formerly a desert which has been re duced to a blooming fruitful garden, and here are now grown all the raisins used In the United States: most of the tgs and half of the lemons and oranges. The climate has become favorably knowu nil over the world as a standard for com parison and Its people for their hrspllalll. enterprise, and civ ic spirit and to the tour ist who travels to the coast in search ''f health, wealth, entertainment, and scen ery the country In and around San Dieg'i will long be remembered as one of the garden spots of the world." The Matheson Motor Car Company de livered a Henderson touring car jester dav to M. F". W. Weidemcver. of Balti more. Mr. Weidemever called for his car and drove It home, it being in readiness for the trip, as Manager Hough was notified in advance of the buver's inten tions. Mr. Weidemeyer also left an order for a Henderson roadster. The horse team and the mule team arc forms of the hay motor that have so frequently been replaced by motor trucks that the exchange has ceased to call for comment. But a truck which has been in use in Porto Rico for some time su perseded a still more antiquated model of the hay propelled vehicle, to wit: the bull cart. This truck is owned by So brlnos de Pedro de Diego & Co , of Guayama, Porto Rico, who are retail dealers in merchandise, rice, beans, sugar, dry goods, and liquors. The first month it was in service the truck saved JSU for Its owners. There arc no rail roads In the Interior of this portion of Porto Rico, and in some of the Interior towns the company has considerable business. This is particularly true of the town of Cayey, up in the mountains. The truck makes a trip there every day, and sometimes two trips a day. The dis tance Is twenty-seven kilometers, or six teen miles, over n. winding mountain road. In which there are, by actual count, 57 sharp turns. This road ascends 2,400 feet in ten miles as It winds up the mountains. At the time of Col. Roosevelt's at tempted assassination the former Presi dent was riding In a car equipped with Goodyear tires. G. F. Moss, owner of DAVE HENDRICK TO HANDLE NEW LINE Well-known Auto Sealer Takes the Agency for the Abbott-Detroit Motor Cars. -J David S. Hendrlck. the well-known In, cal automobile dealer, yesterday consum mated a deal with the Abbott Motor Com pany, of Detroit, whereby he becomes the Washington representative of that com pany! handling the famous Abbott-Detroit car. A, L. Bennett, general Eastern representative of the Abbott Motor Com pany, who has been In the city for sev eral days, acted for his company. The deal has been pending for several days, but It was not until late last night that the announcement was made that Mr. Henarlck would handle the line here. Demonstrating cars are being rushed to this city and are expected to arrive not later than Wednesday. Mr. Hendrlck has for a number of vmn acted as local representatlv e of the Frank lin ana i nomas cars. He will in the fu ture devote his efforts to the Franklin and Abbott-Detroit The demonstrators on the way are touring cars the "34-40," a 11,800 car. fully equipped, and a "44-SO." selling for RlOO, fully' equipped. me ADDOtt-Uetroit.ls'not a itrannrtii Washington autolsts. quite a number of them being In use here, lesDlte tho rM that the makers have 'never had a. local agency.

' ' . W 5-"t? tf& ANb" OSSIP: the car. announces that immeoiaieir sfter the shooting more than fifteen men boarded the ear and .were carried to the Auditorium. ". "Despite the fact of such severe strain, the tires showed no signs of .wear." said Mr. Moss. "This, In my estimation. Is the severest 'test a tire can have. Tet my Goodyear tires showed no signs of wear. This Is doubtless due to the-over-slse feature, which Ukcs care of the overload." ' It Is pleasant to -note, that subsidiary automobile Interests, such as tire com nanlea. have made lust as great advance ments In their products as automobile concerns have In cars. There was a time when tires were considered as a delicate organism, which must be handled only under the most restricted conditions. But In the last few years there .have been perfected several tire saving features which have added much to the pleasure of motoring. The traffic police of Los Angeles. Cal.. have lust completed an official test of the bulb hqrn as an automobile warning signal. So far as Is known this Is the first jest of the kind ever made. Mem bers of the traffic squad went up and down various streets where the parking of automobiles Is permitted and blew the bulb horns attached to some 400 cars. Of this number only two gave what might be termed an adequate warning: that Is, one that could be heard more than fifty feet away. The others emitted so slight a sound that It could barely be heard at all. In every case It was Im possible to obtain anything but a wheeze when the bulb was grasped quickly, thus demonstrating that as an emergency signal the bulb horn is absolutely use less. The test was conducted secretly by the police for the purpose of gaining first-hand Information on the automo bile warning signal question, now a lead ing issue there and before the City Coun cil for solution. Its results will In all probability have an Important Influence upon the enactment of the ordinance re cently introduced requiring the use of signals of greater power and depend ability. Kspecial Interest is lent to the test by the fact that the record of acci dents resulting from the failure to hear automobile horns shows that T. per cent of these occurred at crossings where the noise of traffic Is such that an efficient signal is absolutely necessary. W. P. Barnhart & Compahy report the sale of two cars during the past week. Thomas S. Mai tin purchased a four- cvllnd.'r Everltt, and George K. Sheely a Mx-cj Under car of the same make. One of the busiest automobile plants In Indianapolis Is that of the Henderson Motor Car Company. The demand for their 1913 models lias exceeded the fond est hops of the officers or the company. Pending the occupancy of the new addi tion to their factory, which was ready November 1. they had leased 13.000 square feet of spare In the Industrial Building. at Tenth Street nnd the Canal. The paint shop was moved from the factory the first of the week and all the .painting will be done In the Industrial Building until the busy season has passed. The floor In the present factory that housed the paint show has been turned Into a final assembly department. With a first assembly overflow In the big tent that was raised In the factory jard In Au gust and two floors of final assembly, the company expects to be able to meet the demands of their distributers and repre sentatives for 1513 Henderson touring cars and roadsters C. P. Henderson, who has been in ac tive control of the sales work of the Cole Motor Car Company since the Inception of that firm, has entered on his new work at the Henderson Motor Car Com pany. The former Cole official assumed the presidency and took active charge of the administrative affairs of the Hender son Company on October 31. Irevious to joining his brother, R. P. Henderson, Ue president and general manager of the company that bears their name, C. P. enjoved an extensive auto tour through the Northwest, accompanied by his family. Although the Hoosler Motor Club, of Indianapolis, is only one ear old. It has accomplished many things in the Hoosler metropolis, and Is making its influence felt One of its most notable accomplish ments was the vehicle light ordinance, which was passed by the City Council. The Hoosler Motor Club fathered this ordinance, which causes lights to be car ried on every vehicle- except those li censed to use the sidewalks. The pas sage of this ordinance was opposed by the liverymen from the start, but in justice to the vast army of motorists in Indianapolis the Council passed the measure as drawn up by the club's at torney and legislative committee. The compelling of vehicles to carry lights may not appear to lc Important but it relieves the motorists from blame In case of an accident caused by a col lision with a horse-drawn vehicle carry ing no Ughte. Previous to this measure becoming effective It was not uncommon for the unfortunate motorist to wake up and find a suit Instituted after, a colli sion when the driver of the horse-drawn vehlclo had suddenly loomed up in front of the automobile, having driven out of an alley or side street without warning. Under the new ordinance the pleasure and commercial horse-drawn vehicles carry lights, and this minimizes the dan ger. Recently on a North Side boule vard the driver of a buggy carrying no lights suffered an accident of this nature. The mounted policeman was one of the first to arrive. After abusing the mo torists, the . owner of the bunrv de. manfled that the officer arrest the driver of "the motor car. However, a surprise was In store for him. The mounted po liceman said: "If you had compiled with the ordinance and carried lights on your venicie, x wuuia uo so at once; dui l think that under the circumstances you had better be the one to say, 'Good- morning, judge. This Is just one Illustration of the good that the club Is accomplishing for Its members In Indianapolis and the entire motoring fraternity. George WBennett. vice president of the Willys-Overland Company, has made for' mal denial of the report that he Is to take charge of the affairs of the United SUtes Motor Company, while Mr. Bennett's was one of the first names mentioned cf men capable of bringing order out ot the chaos In which the United States finds It self, he refused to even entertained nego tiations looking to such a change, pre ferring to remain with the Interests which have felt the 'effects of his best efforts. Besides being vice president of the Willys Overland Company, Jr. Bennett Is. gen eral sales manager of the concern and vice president of both the Garforfl Company, makers of pleasure and commercial ve hicles. Elyrla, Ohio, and the Gramm Motor Truck Company, of Lima, Ohio.
