special permit to carry a spare tire.
"It *isn't stock r "It isn't stock!"
That was the laconic reply of those A.A.A. inspectors,to every last suggestion that
called for anything thing but the precise condition of the .standard, stock model Mhos, .veil
that any customer can buy from any one of 3000 dealers anywhere..
We are glad now -mighty glad -that the rules were so strict and so rigid#
enforced.
Any other car that ever attempts to equal that record must do it under official,
supervision -and corrmply with the same terms.
And it will have to go some.
For Maxwell set the standard when it performed this
Maxwell complied with those rules -and made good.
Every drop of gasoline and; oil and water was measured out and poured in by
the inspectors themselves. They would not even let our man pour it in!
Every four hours the car had to report at theofficial station for checking.
And it had to be there on the minute.
And every minute there was an inspector beside the driver on the front seat-
two more men in the rear. One got out only to let another in -day and
night for 44 days and nights!
There was one technical stop.
It is interesting to know the circumstances.
Dead of night -a driving storrn-a cloudburst -suddenly another car appeared
in the road ahead.
In his effort to avoid a collision the Maxwell driver stalled his motor.
At least the observers thought it stopped and so reported.
The car did not stop, however, so its momentum again started the motor (if it
had indeed stalled) when the clutch was let in.
The contest board exonerated our driver on grounds that his action was neces-
sary to save life.
That shows you how rigid 'were the rules -how conscientiously applied by the
observers.

You who have owned and driven, motor cars -you who know how small a thing
may clog a carburetor or a feed pipe; "short" a spark or stall a motor will
realize what a wonderfully well made car this must be to go through that test
under those conditions -44 days -22,022 miles without stopping.
The exact amount of gasoline, of oil, of water used; the tire mileage, tire
troubles, tire changes; the distance and the routes are matters of official record,
attested under oath and guaranteed by the A. A. A.
(By the way, the average was nearly 10,000 miles per tire.)
Any Maxwell owner -or anyone interested may see those records.
And here's the most wonderful part -though no attempt was or could be made
for economy; the Maxwell averaged 22 miles per gallon of gasoline.
Some other car may, some time,"requaisome one of those performances. But to
