The Auto TRUST

Marion, Ohio, reader sends to The
Commoner copy of the Ohio State
journal, containing an article showing
what the automob lie trust did for
projected new industry at Columbus,
Ohio. The article follows:
"Some Columbus men who have put
quite lot of money in developing
new automobile engine, intending to
put new automobile on the market,
have run foul of the automobile trust,
and indications are that the factory
will not be built. Practically every
manufacturer of automobiles in the
country is mber % the automobile
Manu- lecturers association aud for this
membership and the license to do bus
mess under he auspices of the asso-
oiation pays to the association one per
cent of his gross sales. Fer this pay
ment he receives number of advan-
tages, not the least of which is partici-
patton in an iron clad agreement that
no manufacturer will supply automo--
mobiles to any dealer who acts as agent.
for unlicensed machines. This puts the
automobile trade of the country in the
hands of seventy-six manufacturers
composing the association. Any agent
of the association cannot be directly or
Indirectly interested in the manufac-
ture or sale of an unlicensed machine
or he will lose the agency for the Ii
censed machines. When the association
learned that Columbus men were to
engage in the manufacture of automo-
bles, represent alive Of the associa-
ton was sent to them. AS they are in
terested in garage which has the
agency for number of machines,
they were told thot all of these would
be taken away from them if they put
a new machine on the market. But
we will take out license when we
have perfected our engine and are ready
to place it on the Market they said.

of the association. 'We have decided

National Aid Sought.

in the senate this morning national
aid is sought in phase of the
liquor traffic that has occupied great
deal of attention in West Virginia dur
ing the past year. 1t will be remem-
bered that Judge Dayton severely ar
raigned those engaged in what has
been termed the G. D. ID. traffic and
that number of persons were con-
victed in his court.
Appeal was taken to the U. s. dis
trict court and Judge Golf rendered a
deeisision that partly reversed Judge
Dayton. Local option territory is par
ticularly affected and the question at
issue is whether liquor shall be ship
ped there.
State laws have been found to con-
fiict with those regulating interstate
shipments and the resolution intro
duced this morning recites that
Congressman Littlefield has intro
duced an amendment TO the inter
state commerce laws bJ which IL is
sought to give the states entire police
control OF the traffic in liquors.
Under the roles the resolution goes
over one day but 1t will have pIomi-
Following is The full text of Senator
Bailey's resolution.
Whereas, There is now pending in
congress of the United States bill
known as the Littlefeld bill, amending
the interstate commerce laws so as to
give the states entire police control of
the liquor traffic within their borders,
and
Whereas, State laws attempting to
regulate or prohibit such traffic have
been largely ineffective because of the
interstate commerce laws which per-
mitted shipments of liquer to be made
into local option and prohibition terri
tory, which has been especially true of
West Virginia, and
Whereas, We believe the general
government should act in harmony
with the laws Of the state for the pro-
melton of law and order and the pre-
lection of society aud especially i'll re-
spect to liquor laws.
Therefore, Be it Resolved, BY the
senate of West Virginia, the House of
Delegates concurring therein.
That, The congress of tie Unite d
States is hereby memorialized for the
adoption of such law, and that our
United States senators and congress
men be earnestly requested to Use their
best endeavors to secure its passage.
Resolued, further, That the general
government be petitioned to make the
possession of local and state permit a
prerequisite to the securing of any gov
eminent license or tax receipt, for the
sale of any intoxicating beverages.
Resolved, That the clerk of the SEN
ate be directed to mail authenticated
copies hereof to the president of the
United States, the senate and house of
representatives of the United States,
and to each of our representatives in
both branches of the congress and to
Congressman LittleGeld, the author Of
the bill mentioned
