SHIPPING THE JEFFERY
CHESTERFIELD BY MAIL

When it came time to get the new
Jeffery Chesterfield Six to the Iowa
State Fair, freight wasn't fast
enough. neither was express; for the
demand from dealers for Chesterfield
cars took them from the factory so
rapidly that the car which was res
tined for the fair at Des Moines was
actually driven away from the fac
tory by an insistent Ohio dealer.
Finally, with the time short. the Des
Moines dealer got on the wire to such
effect that his car went forward. Ex-
press carried il part way and then
couldn't promise delivery soon
enough. So the Jeffery people con-
tracted for a mail car and shipped
the Chesterfield from Chicago to Des
Moines on the Fast Mail.

POPE SAYS PARTY
is misunderstood
Bull Moose Congressional Candi-
date Defines Position on Tariff
and Big Business

There are two points upon which
the attitude OF the Progressive party
Is very generally misunderstood.
namely, the tariff and the control OF
corporate business. said Gustavus d.
Pope, Progressive candidate for CON-
gress In the First district to Q repre-
sentative of The Times.
mo thinking man can gainsay the
fact that tariff which fostered the
growth OF Industries In this country
by protecting them against unfair
competition and foreign standards OF
living has been OF lasting benefit to
the nation as q whole; but being no
longer Infant industries" the tariff
should be revised down to the point
OF difference In our wage and living
scales. plus fair profit.
The tariffs should be fixed by o
non partisan scientific body from time
to time. schedule by schedule. with
the least possible disturbance Of bus
mess In general. Tangible protection
should appear In the pay envelopes Of
the workers equally as much az In
corporation dividends. Abuse Of the
tarfff. which fostered the creation Of
swollen fortunes. thus would be made
impossible.
In short. we believe In the protec-
tive tariff theory. intelligently applied
for the benefit Of the people az q
whole.
big business, we hold. Is among US
as q result of natural development OF
our ever-growing Industries and AZ
long az the public Ii benefited by the
superior efficiency gained by using
large units and the great strength Of
these units Ii not used ruthlessly to
crush competition. the public has
everything to gain and nothing 70
lose by their existence.
I'VE therefore insist upon q regr
lation and control under certain forms
Of publicity and oversight, which win
ultimately be considered beneficial to
the businesses themselves--as has
been the supervision of the Interstate
railroad commission for the railroads
and which will safeguard the public
against monopoly, overcharge or in
reference with legislation and the ex-
ecution Of our laws"
