CHEVROLET 1IEVS
DETROIT, October 22. The Chev
iiitet motor company announced here
t:x!ay that more than 1,200,000 of the
rew six cylinder Chevrolet cars have
teen placed on the road since the
rst of. the year.
This achievement accomplished in
little over nine months, is three times
tie best showing of any other manu
facturer of six cylinder cars in a
calendar year and tops Chevrolet's
record total for the entire year of
It is now certain that six cylinder
production will set a world record
. Uus year, surpassing for the , first
time in the history of the industry
tne output of four cylinder cars. This
leadership of the sixes will come about
chiefly because of Chevrolet's record
showing this year. ;
Chevrolet factory officials declare
that the dominating reason back of';
' the leadership of the six is the
public preference for the advantages
Which , this type of construction af
fords. They point out too, that the
influence of great volume production,
which has enabled the industry to get
six cylinder prices down to the lowest
on record and has made it . possible
for Chevrolet through maximum vol
ume to offer six cylinder performance
at a price that formerly bought only
a. four.
With a new yearly record already
assured, Chevrolet factories are con
tinuing on the biggest Fall production
program ever undertaken by the com
pany. Nine assembly plants and seven
large manufacturing plants are facing
the busiest final quarter that Chevro
let has ever known.
The heavy Fall factory program
was made necessary, it was explained,
to bring production up to the level
of the demand and make possible
quicker deliveries to owners.
Millions of dollars could be saved
annually y the automobile-owning
public through a more strict observ
ance of the factors that control the
gasoline mileage offered by the av
. rage automobile, it was revealed
in a survey on fuel economy . com
pleted today by . the Chevrolet motor
company.
A gain of from two to five miles on
the gallon of gas could be affected,
on the average it was shown, if the
Those
B
.Direct
motorist paid , strict attention to. the
elements, .that govern fuel consump
tion. - '
The matter of economy has always
been a factor of he uppermost im
portance with Chevrolet in the de
signing of its cars. Having brought
the mileage to the highest point ever
offered in a six cylinder car, Chev
rolet sought to corral in this survey,
the many seemingly unimportant de
tails, which through carelessness or
indifference on the part of the driver,
cut down the mileage that might be
obtained through more intelligent
handling of 'the car.
Manufacturers have been doing their
utmost to make gains in the direc
tion of greater mileage and now it is
felt that with greater ' cooperation
from the driver, motorists may ride
millions of miles yearly at no extra
fuel costs if the matter of watchful
ness can make a sufficiently strong
appeal.
- i
Just how this attention to fuel econ
omy brings its reward is illustrated
in records of performances coming in
to the company's offices, which show
that although the Chevrolet six is
expected to run approximately 20
miles to the gallon, motorists in va
rious sections of the country are get
ting 23, 24 and 25 miles through just
a little added attention to the matter.
.The majority of items to be watched
are rather obvious to the average
automobile owner, but through an in
adequate appreciation of their im
portance are commonly overlooked.
The survey sets down specifically a
number of factors, which, if observed
should increase your mileage two to
five miles to the gallon. They are:
1. When standing or waiting for
the light to change, don't race your
motor.
2. When you are to make a stop
of more than a minute) turn off your

3. Don't drive at excessive speeds
unless the occasion, demands. High
speed travelling burns more gas.
4. Remember that the faster you
drive the more gas you consume. So
when you find that you are about
out of gas and are heading for a
gas station, take it slowly and your
chances for negotiating the distance
will be greater.
5. When starting watch ihe1 choke.
Don't drive with the choke out a mo
ment more than necessary.
6. Be sure that your brakes are
not dragging. This cuts down your
mileage. Get your brakes inspected
frequently.
7. Have your valves ground when
they need it.
8. See that the. idling adjustment
on your carburetor is set at the
proper place so that the mixture
is not too rich. If it is not at the
proper point it gives you inefficient
idling performance and wastes gas.
9. Don't fill your gas tank to the
top, some will escape through the
vent in the cap.
10. Don't ride the' clutch.
11. Watch gas line , for leaks at
joints. Check it periodically to see
that fittings are tight.
12. Be sure that spark is in fully
advanced position.
13. Avoid excessive use of brakes
in traffic.
Observance of these suggestions,
the survey points out, will save money
for the motorist and, add considerable
mileage to your driving and reduce
the number of necesary stops at the
gasoline station.

In S2nate Debate
Senator1 La Follctte, of Wisconsin,
a member of the select committee of
the Senate which investigated the
Tariff Commission in the Sixty-ninth
Congress made the first speech in
opposition to the flexible policy, which
he said had put the commission into
politics aild caused its breakdown.
Senator George of Georgia, a mem
ber of the Finance Committee, -followed
Senator La Follette, declaring
that the flexible provisions have been
a failure throughout the seven and
caused its "breakdown."
In addition to debate on the flex
ible question, considerable time was
spent discussing th action of Sena
tor Bingham, " of Connecticut, a Fi
nance Committee member, in em
ploying an official of the Connecticut
Manufacturers' Association as his sec
retary to aid him in tariff matters.
Senator Bingham explained that his
employment of this official was made
on his' own initiative after writing
to persons in Connecticut for the
name of one who was thoroughly
familiar with Connecticut's tariff., His
action was criticized by Senator Har
rison, of Mississippi, -also a Finance
Committee member.
Senator Norris, of Nebraska who,
with Senator La Follette, is a mem
ber of the so-called Progressive bloc
of the majority, ' which is opposed
to the flexible provisions, declared
that Senator Bingham's statements
led him to understand why the tariff
bill (H. R. 2667) reported ( by the
majority of the Finance Committee,
