The speedometer is a little thing, but can be a big source of wrong

conclusions.

On a recent test, two, cars of different makes, with speedometers set at 0, were given each two gallons of gas, and driven the same road till they stopped. The top car went 7 miles farther down the road than the low car yet the low car's speedometer showed that it had gone farther than the top car. Paper miles and road miles. may be two quite different things.

It is easier to build a speedometer that will read. 70 miles an hour than a car that will go 70 miles an hour.

.:

A Detroit man who has a summer home in Northern Michigan, bogan several months ago to drive his first Ford V-8.. He says:

"My watch tells me that I go up north in less time than I did before, but

my Ford speedometer says that I go at slower speed, and the trip registers fewer miles. In my former car the speedometer speed was higher, my mileage greater on this trip, but with my Ford V-8 1 to in less time and use less gas."

There is no mystery about that. His former mileage, speed and gas con- sumption were delusions. He figured by a speedometer that did not measure accurately, and was not meant to. All his costs--operations, repairs, upkeepawa were calculated on a wrong.basis. A wrong spoedometer misleads on all these 3 tems.

Some car manufacturers justify this practice. They say it is just as well for a driver to think he is going 70 miles an hour when he is going only 62. Well, let that pass as to speed; does it justify telling every driver, that he is getting more mileage out of his car than he really is? A speedometer measures speed AND mileage: should it cheat on both?

Speeding up a clock cannot create more hours any more than speeding up a speed-noter can create more miles. An hour is sixty minutes long. A mile is 5280 feet long Ford mileage and Ford speed are accurately measured--they are thero---you get them---no one gets more.

Anyone can buy speedometers and have them. "fixed' any way, ho, wants them. We deal with manufacturers who know our strict stand on accuracy and are glad to meet our specifications. The limit of variation in Ford speedometers, a limit that cannot be avoided in manufacture, is 24 at 70 m loşi,

We got our speed and mileage out of our engine and wheels, not out of our. speedometer.
