A ■hbhh LORD NORTHCLIFFE The British government has begun > action against the London Times, of which Lord Xorthcliffe, believed by many newspaper men to be the great est publisher in the world, is the owner. The charge is made in con nection with a statement printed soma time ago about the French army. It is held that the statement gave information to the enemy. However, the prosecution Is considered a result of the fight Lord Xorthcliffe's news papers have made on Lord Kitchener, war minister. Repeatedly the Times und the Daily Mail have charged that the British army in France was not supplied with sufficient ammunition and that hattles and men were lost, be cause of this. The charges, with those made by Lord Fisher against Winston Churchill, led to the reorganization of the British cabinet. Kitchener held his place.

Magneto Ignition Proves Its Superiority in Big Race It t<> seldom that the accessories In a big automobile race are Riven credit for the way in which they withstand the excessive strains, but the average motorist can readily imagine the ad verse conditions under which an ignition system, for instance, performs its functions, especially when fitted to the hish speed rucing cars such as took part in the 500-mile Sweepstakes at Indianapolis on May 31. The small capacity, high speed en gines which are coming more and more into popularity are putting a greater strain upon the ignition system than formerly applied, because, among other things, the engines are being called upon to turn over at much -higher speeds In addition to this, the ter rific external heat and excessive vi bration are extremely trying to the vital parts of the magneto, for they are called upon to perform mechanical operations at higher speeds even than that at which the crank shaft of the engine revolves. Knowing well these conditions, rac ing drivers are now a unit in their selection of the Ignition equipment, and for tiie 500-mile race, the Bosch Magneto was selected In every in stance, making the third big race run this year in which this type of ignition has been selected by every driver to en ter the race. That the selection of Bosch was a wise one was proven by the fact that the race was completed without one driver complaining about his ignition system, while the fact that a few world's record was established, (nearly ninety miles an hour for 500 miles continuous running) proves without a doubt, the efficiency of the Bosch Magneto; for there can be no question as to the importance the spark plays in the ultimate result. A weak thin spark would not lire the mixture as effectively as the fat, arc like, penetrating spark produced by a high tension magneto. Front-Market Motor Supply Com pany, who are the official representa tives of the Kosch Magneto Company in this city, say that the Rosch Mag neto used on DePalmas winning car was a stock instrument in every way, similar in construction to the magnetos which they are now supplying to their customers who visit them from time to time in order to have their isrnition systems changed from some unsatis factory system to a Bosch Ignition System.

OVERLAND SPRINGS GREAT SURPRISE Model 83, Formerly $1,075, Im proved and Reduced to $750, Features Announcement The blKgest sensation in automobile circles so far this year is the cut of $325 in the price of the Overland. The largest four-cylinder Overland produced this year will sell for $750. Specifications show that better in many particulars It Is otherwise practically the famous Overland Model 80 which last season sold for $1,075. It Is lighter In weight, has more power, an improved starting and lighting system, one-man top, head light dimmer and divan up holstery. The remarkably low price is directly in linp with the Overland policy of giv ing the consumer the benefit of the sav ing accomplished by the wonderful fa cilities of tlie big Toledo factory, six years of preparation and development of these facilities have brought the Overland Company to the point where they can offer a real family car, com bining road comfort and economical op eration for this low price. John X. Willys, president of the com pany. stated a few weeks ago that the big additions at the Overland plant make possible a daily output of tioo cars, or double that which gnve his company first place in the records of the Automobile Chamber of Commerce. Overland officials declare that it is only the economies of such a tremendous Firoduction that enable them to estab ish a price for their product which is so revolutionary. Model 83. as the new Overland is known, in a large touring car. with h body roomy enough to seat five grown persons comfortably. In power, finish, comfort, equipment and construction, it is fully the equal of its predecessor. The thirty-five-horge-power motor is exactly the same as that of last season's large Overland four, and in view of the car's lighter weight the surplus of power is even greater. Its cylinders have a bore of inches and a stroke of inches. Experiences of Over land owners during the past year have shown the proportion of power to weight to be ample for all purposes. The body also is like that of last season's .Model SO, conforming to the very latest notions In streamline de sign. As In the former model the shell Is of a single stamping which ioins ! <s curve without a break In lines to the slope of the engine hood. Tlie exterior of the car Is entirely smooth. Frame, runnin-board brackets and battery box are concealed by the running-board shield, and crowned fenders of heavy gauge steel add materially to the ap pearance of the car. Concealed door hinges and inside handles carry out the smooth effect. WILLIAM 11. BKATTON Special to The Telegraph Orange, N. J., June s.—William H.
