Auto Pioneer Says Drivers Not As Improved As Cars AUTOMOTIVE PIONEER. Walter S. Austin. Sr., work* out some chess moves. In background is a picturr of his Highway King auto, which last was produced in 1918. . ... i By EDWARD J. MARK AIT V GRAND RAPIDS. Mich 1AP1 ? Car* have come a long uay?per haps too far?says Walter S. Aus tin. Sr., since he stopped produc ing his Highway King auto in 1918 The trouble is, says the 89 year-old automotive pioneer, driv ers haven't improved as much a* the cars. "I Just don't approve of cross country driving any more ? too many people killed," says Austin, j "Motoring nowaday* doesn't ap peal to me." Austin and his father, the late : James E Austin, once produced about 50 cars a year from 1901 to J 1918 In their Grand Rapids plant The late William Randolph | Hearst owned two Highway King*.' Mrs Emma Calve, the opera singer, sloped off On a tour in 191.1 and took one hack to her native Franle, Compared with today's stream- i lined tars, the Highway King was a formidable auto. Models ranged from a two-seat, six-passenger open sedan 113,750? to a severt-paslenger limousine i$5,250>. Austin himself developed his car's four-speed planetary trans mission with a steering poet shift: a two-speed axle and a double cantilever spring. Austin still works 12 hours a day at his engineering board. On ly recently he patented a hydraul ic transmission. In his spare time he plays chess, Austin and his father left auto i manufacturing in 1918 in favor of real estate development. Austin recalled that his Highway King satisfied customers although there never was an organized advertising campaign "We didn't believe much in ad vertising to promote car sales In those days," lie said. ?
