1914 MODEL WESTCOTT
CAR HAS ARRIVED
Electric Lighting and Starting Equip
ment Among the Many New Fea-
lures of This Indiana Makeup

We have had many calls from people
interested in seeing our new 1914 model
Westcott car from Indiana, which we
have just received, and the demand
for this car promises to far exceed
the supply" said Harry Goodwin Of the
Dillon Goodwin company. $50 far, the
roadster Is attracting the most atten-
ton, and we think this is due to the
body design and the original colors
used in finishing tho body and running
gear.
The new westcott roadster is painted
a subdued. rich French gray and the
trimmings and running gear are painted
a medium light brown. Brown leather
cushions are used, and altogether the
combination is original and pleasing.
The car is better mechanically than
ever before, owing to the broad expert
ence and engineering skill of the de-
signers. Electric lighting and start
ing equipment OF perfected design is
among the many features of the car.
The motor is cast OF special gray iron
and is conceded to be the most flexible
and efficient motor on the market
Other parts are in proportion as to
quality and design"

the come on system used by gamblers.
You win only until they are ready for
you to lose. At any rate this is how
a situation like this works out gem
orally.
But one thing is quite certain. All
of the three large companies meet on
common ground In their selection of
Alec trucks to deliver their goods.
Each are of the opinion that they have
secured the best hauling medium for
the struggle, hoping thereby to gain
a slight advantage, but in this they
are all equal
THE latest addition to the already
large fleet of Alec trucks Is five ton
truck purchased by the American Case
line company. and which for the last
three weeks has been delivering gaso-
line along automobile row. The truck
attracts great deal of attention be-
cause of its enormous size and brill
liancy of coloring. The vivid yellow
colors adopted by the American Case
line company in all their European and
American territories now glisten on
this big truck.

larger size. this truck would look like
me of the big, new mogul locomotives

MARTIN TRACTOR
STRONG MACHINE:
Will Accommodate -Four
People Sitting and 80
Standing With Ease
Samuel Grim, Local Agent,
Says That Car Startles
Human Imagination

'The Knox Martin tractor mas peeh
utilized so many ways since its incep-
ton several years ago that the wonder
ing observer has passed the open
mouth wide eyed stage, but now re-
signedly asks, What next? says SAM
uel Grim of the Reliance Automoolle
company of San Francisco, where the
tractor is on exhibition.
The doughty tractor is now seen pun
ing body that greatly resembles
railway COACH or at least streetcar'
Certainly the vehicle is big enough 10
merit this criticism. This coach is 90
feet long and Is eight feet wide ana
when one mentions "a feet wheel pase'
as compared with the conventional way
of speaking of 1t in inches, the eHect Is
rather startling. Added to this is the
length of the tractor itself. In spite or
the great length this passenger carry
ing vehicle of unusual appearance was
designed to operate IN the city streets
and though 1t may seem surprising. can
make the turn on an ordinary street
without difficulty. The front OF lne
long coach rests pivot like on the rear
wheels of the tractor, which cramps
to the right or left after the manner
of a team of horses, swinging, as IL
were, on its own axis, and pulling the
long body with 1t.
The vehicle Is for carrying passengers
and will accommodate 45 people sitting
In the seats along the sides and COM
Portable standing room may be had for
35 persons In short, 80 passengers can
be carried comfortably. which conserv-
atively estimates over 10000 pounds
or about five tons, besides the weight Of
the tractor and tho long body.

RUBBER FOR TIRES is
SAFE FROM TRUSTS
Production, Says Agent. Too Flexible to
Permit Single Control. as Trees
Can Grow Anywhere

The rubber trust idea is but the
acute result of vivid Imagination"
says B. H. Pratt Of the Fisk Rubber
company OF San Francisco. The sources
Of rubber are too extensive and too
scattered to be 'cornered,' as claimed by
some who do not know the actual con-
ditions. The price fuctuation of a day
caused by petty local manipulation are
mere exceptions to the general rule. If
1t should be to the interest of a con-
sumer to pay a high price he will pay
It, not caring what the profit of the
producer may be. On the other hand,
he viii not pay more for rubber than
the demand justif1es no matter If the
price means a loss to the producer.
LAS for crude rubber trusts interest
in them centers In the suggestion usu
ally made that their object is to raise
the prices of the raw material which
would, of course, compel manufacturers
to charge more for rubber goods. 1t is
an odd fact however, so loosely are
these rubber trust rumors put together
that facturers-namely. the pri-
mary consumers of raw rnbber-are
often represented at promoting move
ments to put UP its price. To think
ing man nothing could be more i'm
probable.
"A pertinent question is: Can a
trust raise the worlds level of rubber
prices? If all the sources of rubber
present and prospective, could be
brought under a single control, it
would be a simple matter TO dictate
prices to the whole world. The same is
true of wheat, cotton, coal and candles
But such consolidated control of rubber
is out Of the question. The production
OF raw rubber is too flexible to permit
of a single control. If all the trees in
the Amazon valley were owned today
by one man. or group of men. planting
trees elsewhere would defeat the
scheme"

1850 MOTOR CARS
IN PHILIPPINES
Hupmobile Very Popular,
Says S. G. Chapman of
San Francisco Branch
No American Is Respected
Unless He Is Owner of
an Automobile

Leopold Kahn, the general manager
of the Levy Hermanos company. pio-
neer automobile dealers in the Philip
pines. ard who have handled the Hup-
mobile since 1909, visited the Hup
factory at Detroit recently" says S. G.
Chapman. Hupmobile agent on the Pa
cific coast From him we obtained
much valuable information about the
automobile business in the islands.
There are more Hupmobiles in the
Philippines than any other car manu-
featured in the world Our islands
boasts of 1,750 motor cars, of which
number about 10 per cent drive Hup-
mobiles. The immense popularity of
the 80 is mostly due to the fact that
II is a great hill climber; and the ter
ritorv in the islands, especially in the
provinces, abounds with hills and
mountains. wherefore it is absolutely
necessary that an owner have a car
which can get over grades without
difficulty.
The visit of the worlds tourists and
their memorable drive from Manila to
Bagnio. the first ever made by motor,
did much to pOpularize the Hupmobile
in the islands.
practically every one in the Amer
lean colony owns Hupmobile. or
intends TO in the near future, and an
American army officer residing in the
islands is looked upon with something
akin to disdain if he does not drive a
Hupmobile '32' This is simply because
there are so many of them In use.
philippine merchants are just be
ginning TO realize the efficiency of the
light delivery car, and the first sale
made by us of this type of car was to
the largest table supply house in Ma
Mia In making this Sa'@ our agent
introduced into island commerce prac-
tically the first light delivery car in the
Philippines and it caused a sensation
when il was first received. The amount
Of work it does and the money it saves
is more significant there than here,
due TO different conditions and inferior
transporta tions methods there.

striking facts included in a statement
made by Second Vice President G. NJ
Berry to the branch managers of the

Wis, July IL
The actual increase in sales for the
twelve month period, which began June

Every branch, every distributor and.
to the best knowledge of the Jeffery
officials, every dealer is entirely sold
out on the Cross Country, and the fac
tory is being crowded to the limit to
fill orders.
The number of orders now being re-
ceived breaks all previous records for
this time of the year. In other years
at this time orders have been falling
OF, but, contrary to all past expert
ence, the sales of the last six weeks
have been increasing.

KISSEL KAR UNHURT
IN BAD COLLISION
Smashup Followed by 10 Foot Drou
Does Not Mar Working of
Popular Trucks

fattened muller and a badly bent
running board was the miraculous sum
total of the damage to a two ton Kis-
sci Kar truck after headon plunge
over a 10 foot stone wall in the rear
of the Schwartz brewery at Hartford,
WIS, last week. So certain were the
officials of the Schwartz company that
the truck would be vitally injured that
they declared they would have sold it
as 1t lay for one-tenth of It's purchase
price, although 1t had been used by
them but a short time. A derrick raised
it after about two hours work and,
with the exception OF the trivial dam
age mentioned, every part of the mech
anlsm was found intact and In per-
feet condition. Later in the day the
truck was loaded for an IS mile run
and accomplished it with it's usual eff
cheney.

OWNER REAPS BENEFIT
IN GASOLINE RATE WAR
Fuel VIII BE Cheap Until One Of Three
Big Concerns Corners Market;
Then Prices VIII Soar

There has been much competitive
activity of late among the large COM
panies selling gasoline" says Max L.
Rosenfeld Of the Auto Sales company,
who left recently for the east to attend
a dealers convention.
1T is hard to surmise just what the
outcome of this supremacy struggle
will be, but meanwhile the consumer
is reaping the benefit of q low price,
which is very fortunate for him. The
only trouble with this sort of competi-
tion is that sooner or later one of the
companies gets control of the situation
and Immediately the prices go up to
dizzy heights and remain there until
the cost of the expensive competitive
campaign is more than paid for, which
makes the big game of business like

MARlPOSA FINDS GAS
 BOAT ADRIFT AND DESERTED

The gas boat Gold Hunter was found adrift and a derelict in Icy straits by the Mariposa on the Southbound trip. The Mariposa went close up to the craft and gave several sharp blasts with the hope of rousing some sign of life, but there was no answer from aboard the craft.
 The Gold Hunter is 6-ton vessel belonging to Malcolm Campbell and has been laying at LeMesurier island where MT. Campbell is developing some mining property. The machin- cry was removed from the hull some time ago. Mir. Campbell is now on his mining property.

which were made public yesterday.
II do not quite follow Mr., Kirby in
his statement that in his opinion the
present line Is drawn far too fine and
under certain circumstances competi-

Just what he means by this sudden
change Of heart. for 1t is a matter Of
record that he did not feel as he does
now at the congress fl Berlin last Au-
gust At that time he was in favor
of making the amateur definitions more
binding
There is no demand. for the good Of
athletics. for such a proposition as Kir-
by advances, and ] doubt II 1t will ever
even be discussed or considered serious
ly by a governing body in America. l
not only viii personally oppose any such
proposition as Is presented to allow
John Paul Jones to run against a pro-
fessional in a foot race, but. further
more, | will recommend that we fur
