The Oklahoma State Federation Is
organized to better assist the organ
lied workers Of the state Of Oklahoma
TO enuncIate the principle promuI-
gated BY the American Federation Of
Labor-that the concern OF one is
the concern Of az.
The constitution OF the American
Federation Of Labor provides that all
affiliated organizations shall be repre-
scented in the State Federation Of
Labor where such body exists. or.
ganIzed iabcr must ever be on the
alert IN the matter Of legislation, par.
ticularly at this time when the enc
mics Of organized labor are resorting
to every means to destroy the effec-

the means BY legislation A very seri.

necessary more than ever that the
members OF organized labor should ex.

to their lawful status. and 10 order to
make our influence felt nationally, i

AUTO TRUCKS FEATURE
OF SEASONS BUSINESS
Pioneer Commercial Company
Makes Demonstrating Trip
to Neighboring Towns

Dealers in commercial cars are find
ing that the handling of delivery
wagons or trucks from one to five
tons capacity is to be a big feature of
the coming seasons business. The
Pioneer Commercial Auto company,
representing the Reliance and Ran
dolph trucks, and the Brockway light
delivery wagons, are the first of the
local firms to make extended trips to
the towns within a reasonable radius
of Los Angeles for the purpose of dem
onstrating their machines Sales Man
ager Doyle last week made a trip
around the kite" in a Is h. p, 3-cylin
der, two-cycle Brockway, and while
the trip occupied five days and aver
aged so miles of travel a day, this good
little delivery wagon made the noun
tain grades with ease; and in each
town showed by actual demonstration
of delivering freight for local mer-
chants, its worth.
The gasoline used in the five days
was Is gallons, which proves that the
car can be operated at less than a
dollar a day for all fuel and oil, which
is cheaper than the cost of a delivery
team, and yet can cover more than
twice the distance. A driver is needed
in either case. The day of the little
delivery wagon has come, and this
will be the banner season.

GRABOWSKY WAGON MEETS
WITH INCREASED DEMAND
Company Proposes to Enlarge
Factory in Detroit

At no time since the Grabowsky
Power Wagon company has been oper-
ating has it been able to turn out
product to keep pace with the demand.
Orders have come in such volumes
as to necessitate the immediate erec-
tion of a plant on nine-acre plot.
The great plant when completed will
be the largest factory in Detroit de-
voted exclusively to the manufacture
of commercial power wagons.
Max Grabowsky recently gave out
this very interesting statement in this
connection:
when the erection Of a new factory
building was first contemplated, a
short time ago, we figured on erecting
a new plant on four and a half acres.
This would be ample for the business
we were then doing, but with the rapid
appreciation of merchants everywhere
of the time, labor and money saving
features of our cars, we were COM
PEELED to change our contemplated
plant on the four and a half acres
and double it, making it nine acres
in all.
Judging from present indications,
we are likely to be compelled to in
crease our factory facilities once more
before the ew plant is finished"

AIRSHIP PLANNED
BY GREAT SWEDENBORG
All Civilized Nations Represented
at Congress Held in
London

LONDON, July 30.-The kings hall
of the Holborn restaurant was filled
with the sound of many tongues on the
occasion of the opening of the Inter
national Swedenborg congress. which
was held there in connection with the
celebration of the Swedenborg society's
centenary. Practically every civilized
country was represented.
The president e. j. Broadf1eld of
Manchester, in his inaugural address
said there were Some who regarded
Swedenborg as a far-seeing man of
science; others regarded him as a
luminous and original philosopher; and
there were others who looked upon him
as an enlightened seer and a heaven
directed theologian. All of them
agreed, however. that he was one of
the greatest students of his country,
and one of the greatest geniuses Of
his age.
Swedenborg anticipated modern ideas
by inventing a submarine destroyer
and also a flying machine "by which
men can raise themselves and move
themselves in the air."
The Rev. James r. Kendall, former
ly lecturer and demonstrator in ply
sizes at Yorkshire college, Leeds, and
now of Acerington, described Sweden
borg's flying machine, a sketch Of
which was still in existence. 1t con-
sisted of a light frame, covered with
strong canvas, and was provided with
two large oars or wings, moving on a
horizontal axis, and so arranged that
the upstroke met with no resistance
while the down stroke provided the
lifting power. Swedenborg was con-
fident that the problem of motive
power would be solved. There are
sufficient proofs and examples from
nature" he said, that such flights
can take place without danger, al
though when the first trials are made
you may have to pay for the expert
ence and not mind an arm or leg"
Kendall observed that that anticipa-
tion of the flying machine was one of
the evidences" of alterations alleged
against Swedenborg by DR.. Maudsley
fifty years ago. They now knew who
was the wiser of the two.

MAID GIVEN $4,000;
STEALS $4,000 MORE.
Trusted Servant Is Seized as She
Is Starting on a Trip
to France

NEW YORK, July 3O.-After having
been in the Ladew family for fifteen
years, the members of which had
treated her more like friend than a
servant, and after being the recipient
of legacy of $4,000 from Mrs. Louise
LadeW, Idell Worth, who had been
Mrs. Ladew's maid, repaid all this
kindness by robbing the family of her
benefactress of $4,000 worth of prop
erty The discovery was only made on
the eve of the wOman's sailing with
her plunder for France.
Idell went to the Ladew family as
chambermaid in their home at Elsi
more, Glen Cove, L. 1. She won the
confidence Of the family and was pro-
NOTED to be Mrs. LadeWs personal at
tendant. Then she fell in love with the
Ladew butler Joseph Worth, and mar
ried him. In a few years Worth died.
When Mrs. LadeW died last year in
the Hotel Plaza it was found she had
left her maid the $4,000 legacy. Miss
Elsie LadeW, however, looking upon
her as almost one of the family, would
not discharge her. At the beginning
of July Harvey Ladew and his sister
went on a trip through Connecticut.
During his absence the Worth wom-
an shipped ten trunks to the French
line pier. The watchman on the place
had his suspicious aroused and sent
word to Mr.. LadeW, who returned.
Mrs. Worth admitted sending the
trunks away and said she had decided
to leave the family and go to her old
home in France. She agreed to allow
one of her trunks to be opened, as
serting they contained only her per-
sonal property. 1t was then discovered
that they were filled with wearing ap
parel, jewelry, silverware, fine lace, ta-
BILE linen and a thousand and one
things, all of which belonged to the
Ladews. They were the proceeds of
years of pilfering, having been taken
in such small quantities at time that
suspicion was never aroused,
MIR. Ladew acknowledged the truth
Of the story last night and said that he
docided not to prosecute and had
caused the Worth woman to be put
aboard a vessel for France after she
had signed an agreement never to re-
turn to America,

climbing ability must be made on a
long grade, where inertia" or mo
mentum" is practically eliminated,
and the car that will take a grade of
Is per cent 'on the high" under these
conditions is a very powerful machine
An s per cent to 10 per cent grade is
about all the ordinary machine will
climb in this way ION the high"
The hill-climbing ability of any au-
tomobile depends greatly on the gear
ratio" 1t is very evident that If you
have a car geared so that "on the
high" the engine makes three revo-
lutions to the road wheels one, and
you should change this gearing so that
the engine made six revolutions to the
road wheels one, you could climb
much sleeper grade under the latter
conditions than under the former
but you would cut the speed of your
car on the level just one-half.
This changing the gear ratio is often
done where car is compelled to
travel continuously in the hills.
know of one instance where the gear
was reduced TO eight to one, and as
this machine had a powerful engine 1t
is needless to say it could climb most
any road ION the high" but its maxi
mum speed was less than twenty miles
per hour. However, It did the work
required of it, and did it well.
Few automobile drivers have any ac-
curate conception of the per cent of
various grades, and it is hard TO train
the eye so as to correctly estimate
them. Below are some of the most
well known grades about Los Angeles
The figures are not exact but the per-
centage of error is small, and they
may be accepted as correct for all
practical purposes:
On Sixth street from Wilmer to
Bixel there is a long, easy grade of 3
per cent from Bixel to the top of the
hill the ascent is per cent greater
(5 per cent?. Orange street from Fig
ueroa west IS about s per cent until
near the top of the hill, where the
grade increases to 91a per. cent.
First street from Fremont avenue
east has a rise of a little over 10 per
cent in the first block, while the sec
ond block is almost exactly 10 per
cent.
The first pitch on Second street east
from Figueroa is Is per cent, while
the next pitch of dirt road near the
top of the hill varies from % per cent
to 81 per cent, there being only about
10 feet of the latter.
On Grand avenue the pitch between
Sixth and Fifth streets is about per
