AUTUMN TOURING SEASON RUSH ON Jack o'lantern time is here and the autumn touring season is coming on with a rush. Motorists visiting here, and local car owners as well, who claim that the southern and central portions of California have no "fall," should go out into the country hereabouts and see the brilliant leaves of the winter-ing trees, says the Automobile Club of Southern California. Although this part of the state can't boast of "frost upon the pumpkin" still the pumpkin's on the vine, as James Whitcomb Riley said, and some of the most gorgeous tours in the world are ready for inspection in the southern counties. Practically every county has its own autumn tours. From San Luis Obispo on the north to Imperial and San Diego counties on the south and Riverside and San Bernardino counties on the east, there are canyons now which fairly glow with ripening autumn foliage. Red, browns and brilliant yellows mark the fall of the esycamore and poplar leaves. Find out what the mountains of San Diego are showing this year in the line of fall "clothing." Learn what Ventura county has, what Mono and Inyo counties are putting forth, what the San Bernardino and Los Angeles mountains have. Then tell the easterners! S. P. TO CUT RATES ON AUTOS AND PARTS Effective October 17, freight rates on a number of commodities including automobiles, automobile parts, cotton and cotton linters when for export, will be reduced by the Southern Pacific Company from the East to Pacific Coast ports. The reductions range as high as 20 per cent. Automobile parts are reduced to $1.75 and passenger automobiles to $2.50 per 100 pounds, as against the present rate of $3.15. The present rate of $1.21½ on cotton and cotton linters was cut to $1.17 per 100 pounds. LIVESTOCK SHOW AT RIVERSIDE FAIR The livestock show at the So. Calif. Fair at Riverside will be an outstanding exhibition of the best cattle, hogs, horses, sheep, goats and poultry in the West. Some of these larger herds will be seen at no other show in the south, as they are going to the big San Francisco stock show and will be released early Sunday evening, the last day of the River-side show, to get out on special train for the north. Those interested in seeing a fine exhibition of livestock should not fail to visit Riverside's big show. STEEL-RUBBER ERA THIS, SAYS AUTHOR By Dr. W. C. Geer When the list of the world's epochs has lengthened to include a few more centuries, it is likely that our civilization of today will be known as the Era of Steel and Rubber. For the scientific riddle of the tropical forest, India rubber, caout-chouc—or call it what you will—along with steel, holds out lives in a sort of benevolent bondage. To realize what it means to the ceniense, comfort, safety and welfare of humanity, try to picture this world without rubber. Ears and nerves revolt at the thought. It would be a maddening world of dim, distraction and danger. All this is vividly set forth in what is probably the most comprehensive book devoted exclusively to rubber. Its title is "The Reign of Rubber." It is the work of Dr W. C. Geer, a well-known rubber expert who is an officer of one of the largest rubber companies in this country. It is published by the Century company. "The Reign of Rubber" is a treasury of data on rubber and all that has to do with it. Whether the information wished is scientific or historical; whether it is industrial or just plain homely usefulness, it is there. For instance, it removes forever from the shadow of hearsay and myth the discovery of vulcanization by Charles Goodyear, and gives to this inventor and his discovery the scientific prestige they deserve. What is more valuable it gathers into one... CORD TIRE NOW CONTROLS MARKET No new line of tires brought out in recent years has met with the instantaneous reception that was accorded to the cross-rib cord tire recently placed on the market by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., as a companion line to its famous Allweather Tread, report George Dunton, James the Vulcanizer, and Nenno and Bock. The new tires have made quite a hit, they say. "Every motorist wants the dependability and wear and easy riding qualities of cord tire construction. A good cord tire is the last word in tires. A good cord tire is the best tire that can be built. No factor in this business has been more pronounced than the way that cord tires have come to dominate the quality market within the last few years." However, a good cord tire of standard reputable make costs a little more than the fabric tires. The Goodyear company recognized the need for a quality cord tire that could be built at a price that would enable the thousands of motorists to whom first cost is important, to still avail themselves of the advantage of correct cord tire construction. "And so the cross-rib cord was brought out at popular prices and is proving a boon to thousands of car owners." "The cross-rib cord is a mighty good tire. It is built of the same long staple fabric as is used in the all-weather tread. The patented grouped ply construction is used as on the all-weather tread. And with the exception of the tread, it is made of identically the same grade of rubber as the all-weather tread." LONDON FLOODED BY S. AMERICANS LONDON, Oct. 7.—London is enjoying a South American invasion. Fashionable hotels are heavily endowed with South American guests, the wives and daughters bent on shopping, the men on enjoyment, tempered with business. Not since 1914, hotel managers declare, has there been such an influx of Cubans and South Americans. The South American visitors do not make good sight-seeing tourists who are an officer or one of the largest rubber companies in this country. It is published by the Century company. "The Reign of Rubber" is a treasury of data on rubber and all that has to do with it. Whether the information wished is scientific or historical; whether it is industrial or just plain homely usefulness, it is there. For instance, it removes forever from the shadow of hearsey and myth the discovery of vulcanization by Charles Goodyear, and gives to this inventor and his discovery the scientific prestige they deserve. What is more valuable, it gathers into one authoritative place every conceivable fact of utility, of technical and human interest that concerns rubber. GUARD YOUR RIMS, SAY NENNO & BOCK Rims! Who ever thinks much about them—until he has one break down, pinch a tube or cause a bad accident? Yet a faulty rim, rim bolt, lug or wedge is a dangerous thing on a car says Paul Bock of Nenno & Bock, leading accessories leaders, for the wheel carries the load and is just as important as the engine. When a worn lug can be replaced perhaps by an oversize lug at small cost, why run the risk of breaking a valve stem or blowing off a tire? A loose rim, working on a fellow band wears itself thru and may cause a tire to blow off. To keep rims and their parts in good condition is cheap insurance, says Bock. The firm carries practically a complete line of rims and rim parts, wholesale and retail, and provides an excellent service. Its first experience in job work was on rims and rim parts. Among the makes which it carries are the Kelsey, Hayes, Baker, Jackson and Standweld. The concern also can replace wheels. Guard your rims and your rims will guard you. PARENTS STARVE AFFLICTED DAUGHTER LONDON, Oct. 7.—How a father and mother slowly starved their daughter to death was told at Warwick assizes when William Chattaway, 56, a brewer's Carter, and his wife Ellen were indicated for unlawfully killing Elsie Chattaway, 25. The girl, it was stated, was formerly a domestic servant, but for five years had lived at home suffering from rheumatism. The prosecution alleged that her parents had systematically starved her. For the three years preceding her death in May last she had not been out of the house and a doctor was not called in until the day before she died, when her emaciated condition and dirty surroundings were discovered. In sentencing the father and mother to five years' penal servitude each Mr. Justice McCardle said he had no doubt then desired to rid him of LONDON FLOODED BY S. AMERICANS LONDON, Oct. 7.—London is enjoying a South American invasion. Fashionable hotels are heavily endowed with South American guests, the wives and daughters bent on shopping, the men on enjoyment, tempered with business. Not since 1914, hotel managers declare, has there been such an influx of Cubans and South Americans. The South American visitors do not make good sight-seeing tourists, it is claimed, but the knowledge of the big department stores which their women kind take back home with them is almost uncanny.

What enters into one "It Is Not Economy" To Be Without Car "People are finding every day that it is not economy to be without an automobile when they have the means to purchase one," says George Dunton, Ford, Forsdon and Lincoln distributor. "The last year has been regarded as part of a period of financial depression the country over, yet people have wanted more new cars than the manufacturers could make. "The possession of an automobile brings so many new opportunities for profit and happiness into a man's life that increasing numbers are making the ownership of a car one step toward a larger income and a more completely happy life. "But more than ever are they demanding of the automobile dealer not merely a good car, but complete local responsibility for its continued good performance." FLAT TREAD MEANS GREATER FRICTION It is impossible to get maximum speed from a tire possessing a flat tread, according to F. S. Dunlap of the Nu-Way Tire Company, distributor of the Oldfield and Firestone tires. All racing tires have a crown tread, says Dunlap. A flat tread means increased friction and likelihood of blowout. Speed brings the severest test to tires, says Dunlap, speaking in behalf of the Oldfield, which is made from specifications of Barney Oldfield, former famous driver. Dunlap is having an active demand for re-treading work, the big shop on South Los Angeles-st being full most of the time. EQUAL RIGHTS IN U. S. TERRITORIES WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.—No distinction between the rights of the sexes shall exist within the United States or any territory subject to its jurisdiction. When those words are written into the constitution of the United States, CARS ARE CHEAPER THAN EVER: GROVE The prices of several of the standard motor cars are materially lower today, considering the values put into them, than at any time in the history of the automobile, says H. R. Grove, of Townsend and Melbery, local Hudson-Essex dealer. "Ever since the summer of 1920, when drastic cuts began to be made in all businesses, the automotive industry has been a leader in getting back to pre-war values. "The latest price reduction on both Hudson and Essex cars, made September 22, is the third substantial one that the Hudson Motor Car Company has made within 12 months. In that time, prices of Hudson touring cars have been lowered from $2280 to $1770 and of Essex tourings from $1695 to $1230 delivered in Anaheim. "The latest Hudson-Essex reductions were $100 on all Essex models—a phaeon, cabriolet and coach—and $140 each on the Hudson speedster, 7-passenger phaeon and coach. The Super-Six sedan price was considerably lowered when the new model was announced in August. "These reductions bring the prices of all Essex models down from $50 to $150 below June 30 prices and the three Hudson models to $170 below prices for the same date. It was on July 1 that the Hudson Motor Car company took the lead in what has since become a general further downward price revision." Of course he was a Cockney who remarked that so much violence in this country seems hun-American. France still hopes that the canceiling of that debt we owed Lafayette may have given us that habit.
