baker corporation said. "With the
government and Its allies spending
vast sums of money here in the United
States for material of all sorts. I look
for a great wave of business pros
perity. "And now that the automobile has
become a virtual necessity to so many
business men and a vital part of

RACE RESULTS PROVE
ENDURANCE OF CAR
The victory of Ira Vail's Hudson
super-six special In the Minneapolis
speedway championship race is the
latest feat in the sensation campaign
of the Hudson cars this year. Ralph
Mulford and Billy Taylor, driving two
other super-six specials took fifth and)
sixth places. In the SO mile consola
tion race the three Hudsons finished)
second, third and fourth. Vail's super
six established a new track record
in the main event, beating the former
record by more than seven miles an
hour.
Not a great deal In the way of win
ning was expected of the Hudson cars
on the speedway. The Hudson com
pany's main purpose in placing a team
on the speedway was to demonstrate
endurance of the super-six. While
the super-six racing specials are not
slow cars, neither are they the fast
est cars on the speedway by any
means. In every race In which they
have been entered this year, more
than 60 percent of the cars pitted
.-p.iinst them have had more speed.
Whatever they accomplished there
fore was due to superior staying1
power.
Yet in six big races they have en
tered thev have captured three
Omaha. Seattle and Minneapolis. In
the three they failed to win they took
second Cincinnati, Chicago and
1'niontown. They broke track rec
ords for ISO miles at Seattle and
Omaha. Ralph Mulfords super-six
special established new American
speedway records for 150 and !00
miles at Chicago.

i DRIVES 1667 MILES
WITH ONLY ONE REST
Tia Juana. ilex. July 2S. Another
famous road record, which had stood
against all attempts to equal it since
the summer of 1915. has been shat
tered. Averaging more than S5S miles
a day for three days in succession.
Roy Artley of Jos Angeles, on a
Henderson motorcycle, reached Tia
Juana. Mexico. Just three davs and
25 minutes after leaving the Canadian
line at Blaine. Washington.
This "Three-Flag drive." so called
because It takes the rider through
territory of three countries, Canada,
t'nlted States and Vexleo. covers a
total distance of 1667 miles. The best
previous record had been made bv
"Cannonball" Baker in 1915. and was
so fast that It was considered prac
tically unbreakable, but Art ley's per
formance lowers it by 8 hours, 50
minutes.
The remarkable feature of this In
ternaticnal record drive Is the stamina
of man and machine that made It pos
:Me. Artley traveled the entire dis
tance with only one stop for sleep,
natehinir about eight hours rest at
Tunsmulr. Cal.. after having ridden
the first sn.i miles in sm hours con
tinuous going. Then he speed d the re

IT is NOT an accident that
179 Franklins all oyer the
Country averaged 40.3 miles to
the gallon of gasoline--! t is NOT
an accident that the Franklin is
America's most efficient car.
Gasoline mileage actually
reflects the value of a car.
The record of 40.3 miles
to the gallon gives an in
sight into the Franklin
the engine, transmission,
universal joints, bearings,
axles and the tires. The
car that can make such a
record doesn't have much
friction and it must be light.
Where there is less friction
there is less weight. Where
there is not much weight,
there is not much cost of
