Henry M. Leland's

After the armistice was signed and the Lincoln Motor Co. was completing its contracts with the Government for the production of Liberty Aircraft Motors, we called a conference of our engineering force. The principal members of this force are the same men who have been among the leaders in the development of Leland-built cars during the past twenty years.

Henry M. Leland
President

We have always been strong advocates of the conference idea. Nothing of vital importance, particularly to car owners, is left to the judgment of one man, no matter how competent he may be. "Boys," I said-I still call them boys because most of them were not much more than that when they first came with us some 20 years or more ago. "Boys, you have been telling us of your ideas and we are ready for you to go ahead with them."

"You know our ideas as to quality, ruggedness and stability. You have an opportunity now such as you have never had before, to make a thoroughly roadable car, a car that will not only go anywhere but that will go there with ease to the driver and with comfort to the passengers; a car with which it will not be so necessary to pick out only the good roads, a car that will enable people to travel unfrequented highways and to go places they have not been able comfortably to go heretofore."

"Do the job as you have always been accustomed to doing, only do it better. After

Own

the experimental cars are finished, we want
to figure on at least a year to prove them
out, so as to leave no shortcoming for the
car owner to discover."

In about six months they had designed
several different types and had actually con-
structed two different types. They were
both truly wonderful cars, but we adopted
the better of the two. Four engines were
built; three of them were installed in chasses
and the fourth was assigned for testing on
the dynamometer. That was about a year
ago.

Then followed the refining process and ferreting out deficiencies. The cars have been subjected to the most severe and the most practical punishment we could prescribe and have successfully withstood endurance tests equal to about five years' service in the hands of the average user.

I believe motorists will agree that the ideal car should possess primarily, six important virtues-good appearance, trustworthiness, long-life, power, economy and comfort. The order of their importance is largely a matter of individual opinion.

Appearance and Stability

In appearance, the cars are substantial, well-proportioned and graceful. There is nothing extreme or overdone in any of the eight body types-just thoroughly dignified; they are cars such as the best citizens, persons of good judgment and refined taste will be proud to own. Their beauty is a type dictated, not by passing fancy, but by a desire for permanent attractiveness. The cars are replete with those many little conveniences which contribute so much to real pleasure and enjoyment.

Those who are familiar with the accom

[blocks in formation]

plishments of our engineers and designersmen who have supervised the building of more than 100,000 quality motor cars-know the unusual reputation of those cars for trustworthiness, stability and long life.

These engineers and designers are still working upon the same principles, but with the added advantages of greater resources than ever before, greater precision in manufacture and more suitable metal alloys than heretofore employed.

This in itself would make it reasonable to expect that the new car will possess elements of marked stability-elements which in themselves mean true economy over a period of years. And there is the added assurance that comes from the long proving-out period through which the car has been evolved.

The Engine

Our new engine, which embodies a number of unique and distinctive features, but which cannot well be treated in detail here, I regard as the most efficient piece of motor car mechanism I have ever seen.

Its piston displacement is 357.8 cubic inches. Its power seems almost limitless; I can hardly conceive of any call to which this engine will not respond.

The wheelbase is 130" except of the Limousine and Town Cars of which it is 136". The tires are 33" x 5" cords.

Comfort and Performance

In this day of fine cars, it is not easy to imagine a more enchanting way of abridging distance, but let me cite my own experience:

Our engineers and experimental drivers had been telling us what an unusual car they had; but frankly, I was a little inclined to discount their enthusiasm.

It had felt good to be all washed clean of sin and to be able to pray-but Huck couldn't tell on Old Jim no matter how sure it would make him of going to Heaven.

So he tore up the note and swore he would never reform again. He would steal Jim out of slavery, he would-and if he could think up anything worse, he'd do that to. As long as he was going to hell anyway, he might as well make it worth while.

THE CONTRIBUTORS'

GALLERY

AYNE C. WILLIAMS, a lawyer of

defense of the President, is the author of the article on "The Law of the Air," published in The Outlook of September 22. In sending his defense of the President he remonstrates in a most friendly fashion with The Outlook for what he seems to think is a lack of appreciation of the President on The Outlook's part and a lack of readiness to give the President credit for what is his due. After having undergone for years criticism for seeing the good in organized labor it is chastening to be told:

Some folks feel that you have inherited the attitude of Roosevelt towards Mr. Wilson. Others feel that you share the resentment of big business towards a President whose attitude has been that of cordiality towards organized labor. I am personally unwilling to ascribe either motive to The Outlook, for I have long since come to feel that there are never ulterior motives behind The Outlook's editorial opinions.

Mr. Williams concludes his communication by saying:

I have such faith in the wisdom and in the judgment of The Outlook that I am unable to understand why it does not see these things as I have written them.

R. W. MONTAGUE sends his defense

of Harding's foreign policies, which includes reflections on Mr. Wilson's League of Nations, from White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

Mr. Montague is the father of Margaret Prescott Montague, whose story, "Uncle Sam of Freedom Ridge," which originally appeared in the "Atlantic Monthly," has been ardently recommended by President Wilson as one of the best expositions of his purpose in framing the Covenant of the League of Nations. "Uncle Sam of Freedom Ridge" has not only been widely read as a story, but has been put into the

[ocr errors]

form of a moving-picture play which is A Cash Offer for Cartoons and Photographs

doing missionary work on behalf of the League. Miss Montague is a supporter of Cox and her father is a supporter of Harding, and for the same reason. They both want a league. Mr. Montague comes to a different conclusion from that which his daughter has reached; and he states his reasons in this article. We believe knowledge of these facts will add zest to the reading of "Harding's All-American Plan."

Cash payment, from $1 to $5, will promptly be made to our readers who send us a cartoon or photograph accepted by The Outlook.

We want to see the best cartoons published in your local papers, and the most interesting and newsy pictures you may own. Read carefully the coupons below for conditions governing payment. Then fill in the coupon, paste it on the back of the cartoon or print, and mail to us.
