Where autos get real motor test. This mountain in Montenegro known as "Jacobs Ladder," has been giving American motor cars a real hill-climbing test during the past few months. It is the sole highway from the sea into the hinterland, and the American Red Cross has been sending its trucks loaded with supplies over it three times a week. The road is ten miles long and climbs to a height of three thousand feet before reaching the crest. It has twenty-eight hair-pin turns around which three and five ton vehicles have to negotiate by backing and turning, due to the sharpness of the curves. During the winter its surface is covered with ice and snow. The mountains steep sides are a graveyard of foreign army trucks, but the Red Cross has not lost a single American car in the two hundred anf forty-eight trips made over "Jacobs Ladder"
