Great Demand
FOR overland Cars
Company President Reports
Unusually Large Number
of Orders
MANY SHIPMENTS
ARE GOING ABROAD

The most optimistic series of tan
gible business statistics emanating
from a manufacturer of motor vehi-
cles since the start Of the European
war, has just been made public by
John n. Willys, president OF The
Willys-Overland Company. Toledo.
On November %, the books Of the
Overland Company showed larger
yoli me of sales since the start of
that company's fiscal year on July
1, than that made during the entire
six months ending January /, 1914.
In other words, Overland business
today already is considering a month
in advance of that of the last fiscal
year when the total output of the
company aggregated $4,000 cars. And
for the present calendar year this
number has already exceeded by sew
eral hundred cars.
Foreign orders for Overland cars
received up TO November 20 exceeded
by II per cent those rec eived by the
corresponding date of last year, with
the untitled orde. for foreign ship

times those on hand on the same day

Canal AS HAVEN
FOR WARSHIPS
Congressman Moore Again
Urges That c. I'D. Water
way Be Acquired
PORK BARREL"
DENIED BY ALL

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec 10-New
Importance was given the Chesapeake
and Delaware Canal purchase project
bv a description of its possible useful
ness in time OF war in a speech deliv-
cred by Representative J. Hampton
Moore, before the National Rivers and
Harbors Congress here yesterday. He
suggested that, If the Atlantic feet
we're defeated and driven inward OF
the North Atlantic coast, its ships
would have ready access to the repair
stations along the Chesapeake and
Delaware bays by way of the canal,
provided the Government had pur-
chased the canal and deepened its
channel.
CONGRESSMAN Moore criticised the
filibuster led by Senator Burton at
the last session of Congress and de-
clared that the present purpose of the
Rivers and Harbors Committee to
formulate a bill providing only for ex-
listing projects was unfair to COM
merce and labor. He declared that
such a policy indicated gross indif-
ference to the present commercial
needs of the country and that it would
be disastrous in the event of war.
He believed, he said, that another
piecemeal appropriation would be
made for the Delaware river, but de-
clared emphatically that further delay
on the Chesapeake and Delaware
canal was inexcusable. What would
we do" he asked, ito reach our navy
yards and repair stations along the
Chesapeake and Delaware bays if at
.acked from the ocean and driven in?"
Representative Moore gave a new
definition to the term pork barrel. ="
"A pork barrel" he declared, "is not
what you get for your own river or
harbor, but what the other fellow gets
for his. You never hear of a pork
barrel when things are coming your
way; It is only when they are going
the other fellows way"
Referring TO the appropriations in
the last 40 years, Congressman Moore
declared that 1880. 100000 had been
spent on the army, S2.O55, 100000 on
the navy, $4,000. 100000 on pensions
and only $6S3, ,00O 900 on rivers and
harbors. "And yet" he declared, "riv.
ers and harbors create revenue and
help to sustain all the other arms oi
the Government. Give us as much as
the Government loses in one year OF
free rural delivery service and we will
build two canals like the Chesapeake
& Delaware, of sufficient dimensionI
to accommodate our coastwise flee
in times of peace. and. If need be, t
admit OF the passage of our naval YES
sells in time of war"
Vigorous replies to the criticisms o
the last Rivers and Harbors bill as ;
pork barrel" measure also were madl
by Senator of the Congress, and Al
bert Bettinger, of Cincinnati. Sec
retary Bryan welcomed the delegates
predicting the day was not far of

THK PLEASURR OF GIVING.

JOURNAL:

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL:
Sir-Once' again the Christmas sea-
son is approaching; the time of the
year which brings gladness and
pleasure to many, while to countless
others it means naught but sadness;
gladness to the former because of
their being able to meet the spirit
of the Christmastide by distributing
gifts, to their loved ones and their
friends, thus commemorating the
birth of the Christ-child, as was done
by the Wise Men of the East at His
birth.
What pleasure can be found in
cheerful givingl
It is said that down in the hearts
of most men there is a spark Of
charity that if once reached can be
famed into a fame that gives its
possessor a warmth that he might
never have felt before.
Even such apparently selfish and
unappreciative men as Scrooge, the
chief character in Dickens "A Christ
mas Carol" are moved at times to
see wherein their lives have been
robbed of the joys that come of help
ing their less fortunate brothers.
To be sure it took the apparition oi
his former business partner, Marley
to awaken within the bosom of ole
Scrooge the thought that Christmas
time was a season for rejoicing.
