jt. r. Naulty Announces Plans
for Hop-Off From Point
I Barrow Next Month
MAY ASSIST COMMERCE
Washington, Aug. ". Plnrts for n
trnns-polnr flight in September from
Point Harrow. Alaskn, to SpltzborRpn
and the North Copes. Norway. wore
announced yesterday by Edwin Fair
fax. Nnulty, of New York. Sclentilic
observation of ocean, nir nnd ice cur
rents will be the chief purpose of the
trip, he said, with the hope of estab
lishing the feasibility of the new route
for commerce as n secondary considera
tion. As announced, the start will be made
from Seattle with a convoy of several
p'nnes, which will proceed bj eav
stages up the Alaskan coast to Point
Barrow, stopping at Ketchikan, An
choragu and Nome. The Arctic flight
will be made by one plane, which nl
' ready has been constructed, carrying
four men. including Mr. Nnulty. The
other three are former service men,
nnd it was said their names would be
announced soon.
Originally, it was explained, -. was
the intention to make the flight nest
year, but reports of warm weather near
the Arctic Circle had led to the ad
vancing of the date.
"We plan to make the flight as early
b possible." Mr. Naulty said, "nnd,
strange as it muy seem, to do it in late
September. There are good reasons for
the choice of this time. Our flight speed
sve estimate will be about 100 miles an
hour, to which might be ndded the speed
of n following nir current."
Fuol wns conceded to be the chief
r problem of the proposed expedition. A
tupply ample for fifty hours of con
tinuous flight will be carried, It wns
said, nnd those plnnnlni the attempt
expressed the belief that would furnish
nn excess which would permit short by
flights nt the first landing place on the
Polar Ice nnd the Pole Itself. If no
lauding places nrc found it is the Inten
tion to make the lino-mile hop without
a stop.
If the first flight is successful, others
will be undertaken at once, it was said,
with a view to settling definitely the
location of the magnetic pole nnd the
determination of "magnetic Polar ver
tlclty." liquorIm ports soar

Its Owners Say:
"My next car another Essex
In a recent investigation conducted by a great national magazine, tos determine what
percentage of owners would get the same make of car, when they bought again, the Essex
showed next to the highest percentage. Only one car, higher in price, and far longer on the
market, excelled it in owner preference, by a margin so narrow as to be almost negligible.
So these letters accurately reflect the feeling of nearly every Essex owner.
"Considers No Other Car"
The fleet of Eeaex cars parcbaeed for the
one of our salesmen la pnrrlnf more than satis
factory. We are pleased to advise these cars,
en which we keep detailed records, hare aver
aged 18.4 miles per gallon of gasoline, nre very
economical on lubricating oil, nnd extremely
easy on tires We are so well pleaded vrtth
Essex cars nnd their low operating cost that
vre would not consider using any other equip
ment, regardless of tint cost.

"50,000 Miles Never Failed"
My Essex was purchased In March, 1010,
and has been driven more than AO.000 miles.
My car will average 20 miles to the gallon of
gasoline in the city and will give greater mile
ago In the country. My total repair expense
has been leas than $1C0. It baa never failed
mo, and I would not consider nny trade that
you could afford to offer.
I believe I could sell an Essex to any pros,

FIRMAN L. CARSWHLL.

Why buy any car blindly when it is so simple a thing to ask owners?
Find out how the car you are thinking of buying has served others. What
mileage does it give on gasoline, oil and tires? What are upkeep costs?
Is the second or third 10,000 miles just as satisfactory as the first?
Would the owner you inquire of buy another car of the same make?
You can be guided by what owners tell you. Ask them for the facts. We
urge buyers to do that no matter whether they are considering Essex or
another car. '
Of course the good looks, easy control, getaway, power and speed of Essex
are quickly seen. It is simple to show and convince anyone of its superi
ority in these qualities over any car within hundreds of dollars of its price.
Bur the real quality of Essex cannot be shown in the new car. Time only
emphasizes its long life. The many details that prolong its efficiency are
not conspicuous in a casual examination.
The Essex frame does not weave. The body, doors, radiator, every part
fits and stays snug and tight, and free of noises. As you buy a car for
transportation the most important question is the way it fulfills that re
quirement. Its constancy and reliability its capacity to stand hard use
even abuse are of first importance. Those things determine value.
Owners will tell you that Essex does these things. And whatever car you
consider should be judged by what old time owners say of it. And we feel
no car will receive such endorsement as Essex.
Remember Essex prices have been reduced $405 to $465
