PROTECTIVE TARIFF
AND THE MOTOR CAR
Henry B. Joy, President of Pack
ard Co., Tells How It Fostered
Great Industry

student of the trend of the motor
car art has seen wonderful evolu
ton in the past twenty years.
The automobile has been as epoch
making in the worlds history as has
any other single step of mans in
genious progress.
My father who died in 1895, never
saw a motor car. To-day horses are
practically relegated to the Zoo"
To-day we talk from New York to
San Francisco. To-day man makes
his way by motor car from coast to
coast in fifteen days over the rapidly
improving Lincoln Way attracting
particular attention.
The progressive evolution of me-
chantcal, chemical, electrical science
is placing in the possession of the peo-
pie OF the earth daily more develop
ment than occurred in each thousand
years prior to the last century.
The motor car reached the stage of
practical use first in Europe. Practi-
cally Mr.. Levassor, of Paris, France,
devised the transmission system which,
as far as its general scheme is con-
cerned, is unaltered to-day, says the
Encyclopedia.
But inventions breed new inven-
tlons. The spark which ignited Mr..
Levassor's inventive brain was the
sight or Gottlieb Daimler's crude in
ternal combustion engines propelling
boats on the river Seine in connection
with the Paris Exposition in 1887.
says the same authority.
Actually Mr.. Levassor and his coll
laborators had set the world on fire
with zeal to further develop his con-
cepuons or the ultimate in individual
transportation.

Baseball Stars Will Not
Be Awarded Motor Cars

It seems rather certain now that
major league baseball players are not
going to have opportunity to drive
new automobiles this Fall as result
of being judged the most valuable
player in the big leagues. Such a
trophy has been awarded for the past
five seasons, one American and one
National Lacquer having his name en-
rolled in Baseball's Hall of Fame each
year. The award under which motor
cars were awarded expired last Fall.
Through the winter the discussion of
continuation of the Hall of Fame was
carried on, various suggestions being
made that the honor roll so estab-
lished was too popular and too worthy
to be allowed to end at the present
time.
When at the opening of the present
season no arrangements were COM
pleted, representations were made to
the Empire Automobile Company that
offering two of it's 1916 model cars,
which were announced at that time
as trophies, might be instrumental in
continuing the honor roll.
The offer was made to President
Johnson, of the American League, and
President Tener, of the National
League. Their replies however were
to the effect that the offer could not
be accepted.
Whether some substitute in the
matter of a trophy is to be found or
whether the entire competition is to
be dropped for this season is a ques-
ton still to be settled by the COM
mission. It has been suggested If
commercialism is to be taken out al
together that the most valuable play
ers again be selected by committee

MARKET STREET BRIDGE AUTO
ROUTES CONVENIENT TO
T0NITRTSTG

One of the things that makes the
Market street bridge such a popular
thoroughfare with motorists is the free
distribution of printed routes to all
who ask for them. Persons who plan
a days outing taking them across the
river and who are not familiar with
the proposed trip can get all the neces-
sary information in the printed routes
from toll men at either end of the
bridge.
These routes cover all west and
including two to York, two to Get
tysburg, four to Chambersburg and
one to New Bloomfield with alternate
return route. These routes are kept
up to date as road conditions vary, the
company having changed one route as
often as three times in one season.

Business Good and Cash
Plenty, Says REQ Official

Business is wonderful and collec-
tions are more So" says Donald E.
Bates, secretary and treasurer of the
REQ Motor Car Company.
Never have we known a time when
drafts were taken up so promptly as
during the past few months.
Fortunately for all concerned. the
automobile business is a strictly cash
business. Such a thing as credit is
unknown either between factory and
dealer or dealer and customer. So to
speak of collections being good seems
like contradiction. All automobiles
are shipped from factory to dealer
sight draft attached to bill of lad
ing" however, and when one consid-
ers that the minimum amount in
volved is about $4,000 "a carload be-
ing the minimum shipment) while a
trainload which is a common thing
with us nowadays aggregates from
100000 to $50, 900, and the average
is nearly $4,000, it will be seen that
the average dealer is confronted with
real financing problem when his
cars arrive. In fact, in normal times.
there are always few struggling cases
where dealers leave the cars on siding
for few days or even weeks.
"On April 30 the REQ Motor Car
Company had outstanding in drafts
for cars in transit a total of only
$450,000. That is about four days'
output of the factory.
And more remarkable, not a draft
out was dated earlier than April =
on cars enroute to Pacific Coast, Flor
ida and other distant points.
when it is considered that the
average freight time is more than a
week and that the aggregate of all
drafts out was only four days busi-
ness. 1t will be seen that this is a re-
markable-in fact an unprecedented
condition.
ut shows that not only is buying
free but that the cash is ready to pay
for the cars. For, when asdealer takes
up a carload or ten carloads or a
trainload of Reos on the day it ar
rives, paying the draft at the same
time as he must, 1t proves not merely
that he has ready demand, but that
the cars have actually been sold be-
fore arrival and that the buyers are
there waiting for them"

Chalmers Company Hauls
Employees During Strike

When the ci-y, of Detroit woke up
TO IND out that the street car em-
ployes had gone on strike at
O'Clock In the morning and that not
wheel was moving on any part of the
city lines there was mad scramble
to employ every means of transporta-
ton available.
The large automobile factories
which are all on the outskirts of the
city were particularly affected, mas
much as some of their employees had
to come as far as eight and ten miles.
The Chalmers Motor Company. with
It's 1000 employees was particularly
anxious to lose no time because of
the big rush-of Spring business, Ac-
cordingly, every available car in the
plant was pressed into service and by
o'clock over 95 per cent, of the
employees were in their! accustomed
places
At o'clock when the problem of
returning these people to their homes
was to be faced a complete system
OF transportation had been arranged
over 100 touring cars were pressed
into service; others were stripped of
the bodies and wooden platforms built
on the chassis, with seats accommo-
dating from twelve to twenty people.
The large trucks used in hauling ma
terial were made into carryalls. Def
mite routes and schedules were laid
out all over the city. cars running
north, east and west. Each car was
marked with it's destination and dis
patchers were stationed at all term
inals and diverging points to direct
the traffic and reroute any cars as
the exigencies of the service might
demand.
Chalmers employees were furnished
with badges which entitled them to
transportation and enabled them to
stop the cars the same way as they
would signal street car. Friday
morning every employe was at his sta
tion when the starting bell rang.

The 3O-day machine is holding I'm
over the rough roads and no necban-
ical troubles have been experienced
A solid week of heavy rains turned
the primitive roads into veritahIe
quagmires. but the car showed its
power in every emergency and pulled
through without difficulty. The motor
carries an accumulation of oil and
dust that has not been disturbed
since the run started and bears wit
ness to the fact that nothing has
been done to the engine.
The Saxon that is making this run
has attracted unusual interest in and
around Detroit, the automobile CEN
ter. 1t is going over many roads and
up many hills every day that provide
a hard test for automobiles. In fact.
some of the roads covered are but
rarely used by motorists. They are
nothing more than wagon tracks
through deep sand and long stretches
at time, and therefore automobiles
are accustomed to making detours
and taking the long way round in
each instance, rather than go through
these stretches.
Each days run starts and ends in
Detroit. The car operates over two
circuits, alternating between them.
The courses as laid for the mile
a-day machine lead over the worst
roads in half dozen Michigan coun-
ties within radius of forty miles of
Detroit.

MALTANs HEAR SERMON
The Rev. Harry Nelson Bassler
breaches to City and Steclton Men

The Rev. Harry Nelson Bassler
breaches to City and Steclton Men
knights of Malta of five Harrisburg
comanderies attended services in a
body at the Second Reformed Church
last evening, when the Rev. Harry
Nelson Bassler, the pastor, preached
a special sermon on True Knight
hood or Modern Chivalry." Truthful
ness. courtesy and thoughfulness
were pointed out as the first requisites
of true knighthood, but the Rev. Mr..
Bassler emphasized the fact that no
true knight, even though he be en-
dowed with these virtues, could fulfill
his place in the worlds scheme of
things unless he be a follower of the
cross.
The communicates which partici-
pated in the service included Cincin-
natus No. 90, Baldwin No. 10S, Star
of America No. 113, Egyptian No. ia
and Nazareth No. 1926. Many Steelton
Maltans attended, too. The guests
marched into the church to the
strains of Onward, Christian Sol
diers." and coupled a special block of
pews in the front of the church. The
Maltan idea was prettily carried out
in the program decorations, the book
let's being cut in the shape of the
cross of Maltese.
