FRANKLIN CAR BEATS THE FASTEST TRAIN, NEW YORK TO MONTREAL In a run against the best train time between New York City and Mont- real, Canada, a Franklin car driven by John Bank of the Newark dealer- ship has won by the wide margin of 2 hours and 1 minute. The fastest New York to Montreal train covers the 398 miles in 12 hours. The Frank- lin touring car, with four occupants, made the drive in 9 hours and 59 minutes. On the first lap of the run (New York to Albany), the Franklin tied with the non-stop Chicago ex- press (the Wolverine). The Frank- lin and the through express made the New York to Albany drive in 3 hours and 20 minutes. : The touring car which accomplish- ed this sensational feat was a series 9-B. model that had previously run 4500 miles. As a display of his con- fidence in the Franklin freedom from tire. trouble, Mr. Banks carried neither spare tires nor inner tubes. On the run to Montreal, the party battled a five-hour gale and this heavy headwind plus rain and snow were not the only obstacles to the maintaining of maximum speed. The party 'were compelled to make four stops at the custom offices in crossing the international line; they moreover fourid their path blocked by a steam roller at one point and were com- pelled to take the ditch. The ditch proved to be an almost bottomless clay affair, and the men worked for thir minutes extricating the car from this hole. In spite. of these handicaps they maintained an aver- oe ", a CENTRAL 6402 Wilcox Studio of Millinery 1010 Marshall Field Annex ORIGINATOR DESIGNER age speed of 39.8 miles per hour on the 398-mile run to Montreal. When they reached Montreal, Manager R. R. Wilson of the Legare Automobile and Supply Co., Ltd., had service men waiting to replenish the oil and gas- oline supply. This stop consisted of twenty minutes. Bearing in mind these enforced stops together with the winding road and sharp turns with many little towns and cities be- tween New York and Albany, Mr. Wilson regards the 799-mile round trip run in twenty-four hours as a feat that no other car will challenge under like conditions. (The return trip was 401 miles). The run of 799 miles was made with an average of 18 miles to the gallon of gasoline. No trouble of any kind was experienced. Newark dealership staged a sen- sational round trip drive from New York to Boston in 12 hours, only a few weeks ago, and this remarkable drive to Montreal is the sixth strik- ing demonstration staged by the Franklin motor car company of New- ark in a few weeks' time.
