With more than forty cars entered in the GIidden
tour, Americas automobile touring classic it Ia
evident that this annual fixture which means 50
much TO the industry at large is more popular
tnan ever Vague and unfounded ruuors have been
IN circulation TO the effect that the GIidden tour
was not wanted BY the manufacturers and the
autonobte purchasing public The large list or
entries-and there will unquestionab1v be more BE-
fore the start at Detroit-fuIIy demonstrates that
the makers thoroughly believe in il as a test FOR
the cars
1t is my desire to see this year the best GHddsn
tour that has ever been held There is no dues-
tion in the minds Of those who have closely fol-
lowed this tour that IT has done more for the
automobile industry than any racing or touring
event which has ever been held in America
The Glidden has worked wonders for the indus
Try and pastime- II has shown the makers the
good ami bad points in their cars. II has given
them the opportunity try the and locate
the strong and weak points. with the view OF per-
fectins them One may say that the maker can
take his car on the road, put it through all kinds
Of stunts. climb steep hills. make II waIIow
through deep sand and over bad roads and learn
Just what the Car is capable OF doing To certain
extent this is true. but running under schedule
and strict regulations means more 70 the maker
than could be learned in private tests
I know c. many concerns which have entered

eyes in wonderment little things which were
supposed TO be strong details but turned 70 BE-

Havey arrived in Bangor this afternoon
and were called upon at their hotel
by Mayor Woodman and Chief of Po-

vited by the commissioners to describe
conditions here, with the respect of the
liquor traffic The interview lasted
about 90 minutes, and regarding what
passed, the commissioners refused to
make any statement.
Chief Bowen, however, described
briefly what transpired at the meeting.
the substance of it being that in reply
to questions, he had stated what he
knew to be the fact:
That liquor was being sold in Ban
gor, more or less freely.
No conclusion was reached, or at
least none was announced by the COM
missioners, but Chief Bowen says that
he has no doubt whatever that the
commissioners will at once set their
deputies at work here.
Since Jan. /, little or nothing has
been done here toward enforcing the
law, the Enforcement deputies having
been withdrawn early in the year.
The visit of the commissioners to-
day has caused great excitement among
the liquor dealers.
