The professional, an eitpert (mechanic usually, is equipped with tools to render most locking devices ‘valueiess. He will usually steal the {car he wants regardless of obstacles. ‘Heavy punishment alone can discou- rage this type of criminal: However, he is a member of a very small min. ority. Roughly, there are about 30 amateur car thieves to one profes- sional, according to police records. From your own observation you will recall many instances where a man, after parking his car, threw the The amateur is usually an oppor- tunist. He steals automobiles or ac- cessories occasionally because unus- ually good opportunities present them- selves. He may be likened to the sneak thief who will only rob a house when a window is up, or a door un- locked. To foil him we must con- sider the human nature of the car owner, as carelessness is his greatest ally. The stealing of automobiles will continue in greater or less degree ac- cording to possible punishment. until a change in human nature is witness- ed not alone in the thief, but also in the owner.

A powerful Cadillac Eight acted as pacemaker, and set up a smart clip over every type of road from loose sand and gravel, plain dirt, 'muck and swamp, to rocksland corduroy. The car carried the famous Ford Quartette, none of whom could drive nearly as well as they can sing, but Who nevertheless maintained their place in the line throughout the entire trip, and came through with flying colors. During the recently completed Michigan Pikers tour, a Ford car tak- en out ot the assembly line covered the whole of the 1600 miles without the. slightest mechanical adjustment or tire change. " Use common sense and carefulness and the number of car thefts will be reduced to the minimum. FORD MAKES RECORD dels. We don't recommend camou- flaging a nice new shiny car into an undesirable specimen, but we suggest that when you do buy a new spare tire at least it should be covered so as not to arouse the thieving in- stinct and also incidentally to protect it from the de1eterous-etfect of sun- light. Also always lock your spare tires to.the carrier. q Statistics show that new cars ar stolen more frequently than old mod Those locking devices you now have on the car-do you use them regular.. ly?
