U. S. ASKS INFORMATION
ABOUT SHIPS SEIZURE

Washington D. c., Jan. 20.-The
state department has requested from
the British embassy information as to
why the American steamer Green Brier,
from New York to Bremen, Germany,
with cotton under certificate of the
British consul at New York, was
stopped by a British cruiser. sent under
the British flag to a British port and
detained there for some time before be-
ing allowed to complete her voyage to
Bremen.
The points upon which the state de-
partment wants information are, first,
why was it necessary to search the
Greenbrier in view of the certificates
issued by the British consul at New
York: and second, why a neutral mer-
chant vessel was compelled to lower
her flag when under no known rule
could she be regarded as prize.
The British ambassador is expected
to get q report on the subject from the
London foreign office.

BEAUTY IN AN AUTOMOBILE
James G. Heaslet, Who Plans and
Builds the Studebaker Cars,
Tells of His Work.
BEAUTY ALWAYS SIMPLICITY

When one thinks of the work done by
the designer OF an. automobile, the i'm
agnation usually presents the picture of
a man at work upon the drawing Of
new motor or over mathematical tables
giving TIE stresses OF new steel. Too
seldom Is consideration given to the hard
work spent upon what all can sce--the
bclu!y Of line and Of balanced masses
that delight to eye" seid James @.
Heaskt, Studebaker designer.
Accustomed to the wonderful models
of the last few seasons. the automobiles
that wero on the market when I first be-
came interested in designing cars six
teen wears ago seem TO us now nothing
more thar toys. In that time the diminu-
tive, clumsy, snorting 'one-lunEer' has
developed into the complex siX-cylinder
machine that huns along the highway at
thirty to sixty miles an hour carrying
seven passengers in perfect comfort
Auto No Longer Puzzle.
1t Is a far cry from those to the tour
ing car of 1915. Let us take the Stude-
baker six as typical of the cars of this
season. The car is a natural evolution.
1t was only a few years ago that no tour
ing car was made with foredoors. An
automobile was an enigma to the man
who owned one and he hired chauffeur

tho owner and simplification of the car
