JOINT SESSION OF CONGRESS
president Wilson Will Advocate Re-
peal of Toll EemptiOn of
American Vessels,

President Wilson will personally
address joint session of Congress
tomorrow, advocating the repeal OF
the clause in the Panama Canal act
which exempts American coastwlse
shipping from the payment Of tolls.
White House officials last night ar
ranged with the majority leaders IN
both houses for a joint session at
1890 p. m. as5Ii,.
This decision followed confer
ence with Representative William
C. Adamson, of Georgia, chairman
of the committee on interstate and
foreign commerce in the House, au-
thor of Tie canal act. MIR. Adamson'
it is understood, agreed with Mr.
Wilson that the delivery of mes
sage would insure the repeal OF the
exemption clause.
The President has prepared
brief address in which he sets fortll
/, his opinion that Congress should
reverse itself and keep the oDllea-
tons of the Hay-Paunce-fote treaty
which he believes were violated by
ne Panama Canal act. TIE Presl-
dent holds that the national honor
Of the American people Is at STAKE
and that European nations should
cot be allowed to get the impression
that treaties made by the american
Government are not adhered to Dotn
IN letter and in spirit.
A hint is declared to have oeen
taken from tie historical fact that
The Monroe doctrine was originally
inspired by England. The President
liz said to realize that the Mexican
angle has brought about almost
rarallel situation with that when
listed wien President Monroe an
ounced his policy. As a result al
~qreement is said to have beer
cached with Great Britain under

"The thermo-syphon system Of cool

pc that II is not the most reliable

bends directly upon the difference in

FORD DELIVERY CARS
GIVE FINE SERVICE.


FORD. Ont, Sept 17.-That horses
must sooner or later give way TO
motor power in still another field is
notably shown in the rapid adoption
Of the Ford car in the royal mail
service. Already the horse-drawn
vehicles are decidedly in the back
ground, as is shown in the delivery
of Toronto's mail. where three ,Fords
are now doing the work of Is horses.
Next season the entire mail deli
very in Toronto will be given over
to motor service, according to
Thomas Vance. of Vance & Co., the
big commission merchants who hold
the contract for the citys mail deli
very.
In a recent interview Mr. Vance
said: con several occasions you have
asked me what service the Ford
Model T mail delivery cars are Civ
ing us. l hesitated more or less in
giving you the report, as l feared we
had not given the cars a fair test,
but each of the three has now cover
ed well over 10000 miles, and feel
am in a position 20 give you a
report worth having.
Il consider the Ford car the easiest
to drive, also the easiest to teach the
driver how to handle, and as an evil
dence of this am pleased TO state that
with six different drivers we have
now covered over 10000 miles with
out an accident to the cars or to the
public."

MOTOR TRUCKS in
THE FOREIGN WARS
German and French Gov
ernments Pay Subsidies
for Vehicles

Interesting light is thrown on the
methods adopted by the French and
German governments to subsidize mo-
tor trucks for military uses by John
n. illys. president of the WHY'S
Overland Company and builder Of the
Garford and Willys-Utility trucks. Mr..
Willys has just returned from Lon
don. England, where he remained
several weeks after leaving the con-
tinent shortly before the actual open
ing of hostilities
"Thc war lords OF Europe early
foresaw the superiority of the motor
truck over horse-drawn vehicles as a
means of transportation says Mr..
WHY'S. "This statement IS verified by
the precautions they took to reserve
the right TO use the large batteries Of
heavy duty vehicles purchased for
commercial use by private individuals
or corporations. They realized that
in case of war the manufacture OF au-
tomobiles on their side Of the Atlantic
would be at a standstill Consequent
ly they adopted measures to assure
themselves of the proper equipment
even under such straits.
"The German army administration
was induced to take up the question
OF motor truck transportation with
dual purpose in mind. The authorities
desired to secure an efficient method
of hauling supplies in the event Of
war. and of preventing the blockading
of military roads with horse-drawn
vehicles when they desired them open
for the movement of troops.
"These considerations led to the
tender of subsidies of such substantial
importance as to encourage the pur-
chase of motor trucks by private con-
Germs under conditions which would
enable the government at any time to
draft them for army purposes with the
certainty that in the meanwhile they
would be kept in perfect running con-
dition and provided with a properly
trained chauffeur.
"The subvention for a single truck
amounts to the sum of S1,190, payable
as follows: premium of S42S upon
purchase. followed by four annual
premiums of $19O50 for the main
tonance of each vehicle If three or
five-ton trailer is provided with the
truck the original premium is raised
