European makers had already tried this
type out in racers. They were perfecting it
for a road car.
We hoped to be the first in America to
adopt this style of motor. But when the
war stopped European makers. fate decreed
that we should lead the world in the use of
the valve-in-head overhead camshaft motor
for stock car.
We were not surprised at the showing at
of motor won all honors. We knew a year
ago that these results would be achieved.

We knew that to attain a speed of 90 to
100 miles an hour that the motor would

1.-TWO years ago we saw three things.
First was that the tendency of the
A. public demand in both Europe and
America was to compact high speed motor
that was more efficient. would get away
quicker. run more smoothly. have greater
hexibility, show greater economy and last
longer under hard service.
Second was that a public temporarily
rode nicely for while, would swing back to
demand quality manufacture and the ability
to stay put
Third was that only those manufacturers
who built their own cars in large vol-me
and bought their own materials for spot
cash at the advantage of the market could
survive.
Motor Designed in Europe
So we sent our engineers to Europe to
design new motor and began to lay our
plans for a greatly increased production
this season.
We are now building two big new factory
additions to handle the work We added
machines that cost 500. 600 90 apiece to do
work in our factory in order to give this
remarkable quality car to you at $3.50.
No one dreamed that such car could be
built for $3.50. tits equal to cars that sold
for $4,000 three years ago. 1t isn't made
over model, reduced in size. or certain
things eliminated to fit the price-it is a
brand new car, designed specially as a
Quality car at low price.
The Quality Car at Small Profit
We are marketing this QUALITY car on
the lowest profit per car in the motor car
business.
When Chalmers engineers went to
Europe to study design two years ago. they
found European designers at work on high
speed motors of the valve-in-head type with
overhead camshaft.

l ter met Mr.. Melady and put It up to
him.
1t Is n we'll known fact the democrats
are badly up in the air when 1t comes

up against the anti-democratic sentiment
which has been growing for some time.
They have been disappointed in not being
able to press DR.. Z. l.. Hall into the
race, and now that Governor Morehead
will not run for third term, It is up H.
them to find somebody VINO will bear
the burden.
The popularity of Colonel Melady over
the state among those who patronize
good clean sports has led the Lincoln
democrats to feel favoraOly toward Col

When the matter was put up to him
the colonel said, II am not In politics,

Brother Charley
Finds it Difficult
To Run City Machine
(From a Staff Correspondent

LINCOLN, Nov. o. Especially Like
Brother Bill. Mayor Charles Bryan of
Lincoln is finding it much easier to tell
what ought to be done when out of office
than it is to do 1t when in, and the man
ner in which his political machine was
bumped into yesterday by the majority
of the city commission has left II looking
as IL it had been struck by a locomotive.
The mayor has not been able to put
I'm effect many OF the things he told the
people he would do. He gave them to
understand before election that he would
see that the courts settled the gas COM
pany problem. The courts did hand down
a decision against the company, but now
they have given them more time and
accepted a bond large enough to cover
points at issue, which means it will be
two years more before the thing is set
tied.
The commission form of government
for cities was one of his pet issues which
IL adopted would make a cheaper form of
government and would give the commits
sion power to handle all of the difficult
ties which came up. Now the mayor
practically admits the failure Of the COM
mission form to do these things by ad-
vocating the formation of another COM
mission to take over the work that he
thinks needs looking after and which the
commission cannot handle.
His welfare commission idea does not
meet the approval Of the other four MEM
bers of the city commission, and In the
red-hot argument which nearly tore the
roof off of the city hall yesterday 1t
was shown that his very close support
ers of the past were against him. Otto
Meier, Judge England and Mr.. Sinclair,
his strong supporters in the past, all
turned against him and accused him of
many things which in their estimation
were sufficient to warrant them in break
ing away.
Charges were made that the Bryan
principle of letting the people rule" had
been forgotten by the mayor. or he would
be willing to have the matter Of well
fare commission put up to the people OF
Lincoln and let them vote upon it, and
let them select the members of that
commission.

porters were in favor of giving the mayor
a little taste of his own political medicine
