Miller Tire Manager
Speaks of Yellowstone

w. F. Pfeiffer. general manager of
the Miller Rubber Company, who has
Just returned to Akron from the coast
and is one, of the many thousands of
motorists WHO are delighted at this
news, says: "The horse has made his
last stand against the automobile in
Yellowstone National Park, as shown
by the announcement that this nation
al playground will be open to automo-
plies the first of August"
Mr.. Pfeiffer says that to make the
entire swing, taking in the six-thou-
sand mile circuit of parks, including:
Yellowstone, Glacier Rainier, Crater
Lake, Yosemite. General Grant and
sequel, would really require the larger
part or the summer, but that it could
be made on one set of tires.
For years Uncle Sam was opposed
TO autom obiles here, but Pfeiffer SAYS
that, thanks to the American Auto
mobile Association, the motorists have
won.
AS the plans now stand, automobiles
VIII leave half an hour in advance of
the rfist stage coach and traffic will
go one way only.
Inspectors will be made to see that
every car has enough gasoline to pre-
vent stops that would permit horse
drawn vehicles to catch up. Army Of
hcials will have complete charge of
the traffic and telephone stations will
De placed along the route.

Chalmers Company Profits
by Suggestion Contest

With the announcement of a $500
prize suggestion contest, Hugh Chal-
mers has struck new keynote in the
automobile world.
II am a great believer in the de-
velopment of my men," declared Mr..
Chalmers. I'm a factory employing
upwards of 5000 men there is bound
to be a great deal of hidden talent
that has not ben given a chance to
shape itself.
From now on the suggestion con-
test will be a regular part of the
factory program. Already the en-
ployes are displaying a great interest
in this plan, and we are receiving
many suggestions every day. In the
future in making promotions or in
creasing wages, we will take into
consideration the number OF good
suggestions made by an employe,"
continued Mr.. Chalmers
I'VE need the suggestions of our
employees to help us to run this busi-
ness properly. We want every indivi-
dual to take a personal interest in
the success of this company, and to
show our appreciation we are offer
ing $500 in cash prizes TO those who
give us ideas and suggestions that can
be used to advantage"
In accordance with the plans of the
contest. $500 in gold will be awarded
the winners on December "a. The
first prize is S100. There are two
prizes of $50. five of $40, twenty of
IS, twenty of $3.50 and fifty of 81.
The nature of these suggestions
may take many forms. Improvements
in machinery, substitution of ma
chinery for manual labor, reduction
in costs, precautionary health and
fire measures, reduction in cost of
transportation, express and mail,
sales.
The contest is open to all employees
except officials. Only those sugges-
tions from heads OF departments. su-
perintendents, foremen, engineers,
designers and inventors which relate
to work other than their own will
be considered. AS soon as the first
contest is closed another one will be
initiated

FINAL WORD OF u. S. In
MESSAGE TO BERLIN

ment awaited further developments.
The note does not necessarily call
for a reply. 1t leaves the way open,
however, for an answer from Ger
many disavowing the sinking of the
Lusitania and offering reparation, sub
mitting assurances as to the future
actions of her naval officers, and, even
asking directly for mediation by the
United States between the German
and British Governments on the gen.
eral subjeS of warfare on the sea.
The use in the note of the phrase
deliberately unfriendly" is viewed
here as expressing the final word of
the United States Government regard
ing Germany's submarine warfare. The
United States does not abate in any
respect, but rather more strongly in
sists upon, the demands made in pre-
vious notes that Germany acquiesce in
it's views that the rules of International
law and humanity be obeyed in her
naval warfare.
Freedom "At Any Cost
The United States Government can
not believe, the note says, that "the
imperial government will longer re-
frain from disavowing the wanton
acts of its naval commander in sink
ing the Lusitania," and making repa-
ration for the lives of Americans lost
in that disaster. 1t announces that
the government will continue to con-
tend for the freedom of the seas "from
whatever quarter violated, without
compromise and at any COST"
The note also invites the practical
cooperation of the German Govern
ment in an effort to bring about the
freedom of the seas; declares that the
American Government cannot discuss
actions of Great Britain and that IL
regards as irrelevant in the present
negotiations the conduct of other bel
ligerents, points out that recent events
have clearly indicated that 1t is pos
sible and practicable" to conduct sub
marine operations in substantial ac-
cord with the accepted practices of
regulated warfare. and rejects Ger
many's proposal that certain vessels
be designated and agreed upon which
shall be free on the seas now iIle-
gally prescribed"
The note is now in the hands of the
German Government and no reply is
expected for several weeks. President
Wilson and Secretary Lansing had left
Washington to-day.

Saxon Dealers Make
Sensational Records

| Reports OF records made by los
Saxon Skies in a nationwide economy

ords in economy will be established by
the cars that entered. Complete rec
ords of the performances and an
nouncement of the winner Will be
made within a week by the Detroit
newspaper men who are acting as
| judges.
Despite the fact that the runs started
over roads made muddy by almost two
days steady rain, the general average
| made by the 105 competing dealers
was better than 20 miles per gallon of
gasoline. Oil consumption was corre-
spondingly low.
Reports received thus far tell of
unusual records made by c. F. Seward.
of Kokomo. Ind, and E. H. June, of
Binghamton. n. Y, both of whom

the dealer making the best showing in
economy and all-round performance.

sent in by the contestants from the
standpoint of gasoline and oil con-
sumption, road conditions, weather
conditions length of trip and average
speed maintained throughout. Each
entrant had to make a run of 100
miles or more in order to qualify for
the prize.
Competing against 1O4 veteran deal
ers, Miss Edna Wiesenthal, of Mil
waukee, piloted the six-cylinder Saxon
owned by r. d. Rockstead, of that
city. from Detroit to Milwaukee in an
endeavor to win the honors. She COW
cred $50 miles, made the distance in
is ]. hours and averaged "a miles to
the gallon of gasoline. So far as is
known. .his is the first instance of a
woman entering an automobile con-
test. The driver of this car made one
OF the longest trips taken by any of the
dealers.

Rochester. n. Y, who achieved ma
tional fame several years ago in many

driving from Detroit to Rochester con-
tinually day and night. He covered
