PUSH.

Marietta should get a move on her

of some kind that will give employment
to laborers, and add to the commercial
prosperity of the town. If the people

town forward, then we will ell suffer,

The city that moves under the motto,
Push Things" is the one that gets
there. Where public spirit abounds
things progress, and often like magic
towns 60 forward, outstripping their
neighbors and making themselves a
wonder to all observers. There are
many agencies for building up town,
but there are none more potent than q
well ordered commercial body, like q
board Of trade or chamber of COM
merce. These emphasize the fact of q
public interest in affairs, add tone to
whatever efforts are put forth for ad-
vancement, and afford the benefits of
the councils and interchange Of ideas
incident to organization. 1t also affords
a head for all public movements. OF

tie without the interest and support of

A. A. A. Welcomes Withdrawal OF
Automobile Club of America.

New York, March 14.-Following
the split between the Automobile Club
of America, the premier motor organi-
cation on this continent, and the
American Automobile association.
which occurred through the withdraw
al of the automobile club from the
New York State AutomO bile associa-
ton, affiliated with the A. A. A, at the
state organizations meeting in Buff
falo Thursday, formal announcement
of the withdrawal was made from the
day Although w. H. Hotchkiss OF
Buffalo. president of the A A. A, gave
out a statement in which he said the
national organization welcomed the
New York clubs withdrawal, auto
mobilists who are in touch with the
situation expect the effect to be far
reaching insofar as legislative, touring
and racing affairs are concerned.
The immediate effect of the with
drawal will be the disruption. of the
various boards of the A. A. A. par
ticularIy the racing board of which
Jefferson DeMont Thompson, the
chairman, w. K. Vanderbilt, jr, David
Hennen Morris and s. M. Butler are
members by virtue of membership in
the Autom obile club. Should any of
these men desire to be reappointed to
the racing board, it will be necessary
for them to enroll as individual mem
bers of the association Effects more
far reaching in their nature are ex-
pected by automobilists to be the fight
for supremacy in legislative, racing
and touring fields. The Automobile
Club of America is distinctively a New
york city organization, its member
chin. however, including many of the
country's most prominent motorists.

AS soon as the jury, which had been
sitting in the case for seven weeks, re-
turned its verdict of guilty as to all
four men last evening, Judge Kunkel
received motions for new trials and al
lowed 80 days in which to file the rea-
sons. When they are entered upon the
record Judge Kunkel will set a time
for argument and will decide the mat
ter at his convenience. The general be-
lief is that no new trial will be granted,
but this is mere speculation. Should a
retrfal be refused, the case will be Ia
ken to the appellate court.
Sanderson left for Philadelphia today
and Snyder and Shumaker also took
trains for their homes, refusing to talk
about the cases. Mathues went home
last night. Only Sanderson and Sny-
der were at the court house, when the
verdict came in. The others were rep
resented by counsel.
