John T. Mourning, Labor Leader,
 Endorses COnvictS On the Roads
Outlines Plan Save Health and Morals of Convcs and Build
 Better Roads by Use of Convict Labor

Is opposed to convict road work have arisen from the fact that during pe- riods of business depression we have protested where short-sighted and in competent prison officials have insist ed upon employing prisoners on the roads when other employment could be found for them and free working men needed the road work. We do not con- slider it conducive of good to work convicts on the roads near a large city, where men for the work can be re- cruited from the hordes of the unem- ployed. Out in the country districts the prisoners can labor with benefit to themselves and the state on the roads
 Since the beginning of time. MT Manning concluded, i've have been trying to build good and better roads. We seem hardly to have made an inn pression as yet and the contention is utterly without foundation that if con yicts work on the roads, all the roads will soon be built and there be no further work for free men on them. Let the convicts build roads out in the country districts and, when the roads are built. keep them in repair. Organ ized labor approves such road work and will encourage the states that adopt it.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-11-14

"Our attitude is that the health of the prisoner is main consideration" stated John J. Manning a representa- tive of the United Garment Workers of America, when asked by the na- tional committee on prisons and prison labor to outline the attitude of organ ized labor toward convict road work.
 Unless the prisoner can be employed at healthful work inside the prison. he is best off working on the roads. the roads that he builds, while the honest, healthy toll.
 Two predominant elements for good in convict road work are often lost sight of by the taxpayer" he con- tinued. First, the utilization of class of labor practically unfitted for any other kind of work. Second, the building up of a system of good roads at a minimum cost to the taxpayer and the state.
 Most of the men in, our penal in- stitutions available for road work 1n- variably come from an environment which has been detrimental to their development Removing them from these surroundings and giving them a chance for development along lines which they were denied is bound to have a beneficial effect on them and in- cidentally on society at large, that is incompatible in the scale of dollars and cents.

PACKARD BUSINESS
 EXCEEDS CAPACITY
Immense Increase in Orders for Twin Six Forces Plant
 to Run Night and Day

Packard Twin Six cars are being de- livered in increasing numbers. This week the "1-35," which Is the larger of the two new models. made its appear ance in the regular shipments from the Packard factory. The symbol. "1-35." refers to wheelbase, which Is 1855 inches as distinguished from the "1-25" model with wheelbase of 125 inches. It is announced that production of finished cars of both models Is now approaching normal volume in accordance with tho greatly enlarged scale of manufacture that was inaugurated this season.
 Shipments of the smaller twin six cars have been going forward for some weeks and buyers have had an oppor- tunity to judge of the merits of the 12-cylinder innovation. While a great deal was expected of the twin six, let ters receiver at the factory from own CTS indicate that the performance Is beyond what was anticipated.
 In it's ability to throttle down cas- fly to three miles an hour on high gear to meet the conditions of city traffic, in the rapadity of its pickup and its almost uncanny activity on steep grades. along with its remarkable smoothness of action in any situation, the new Packard is beyond & doubt the sensation of the year.
 Since the twin six cars have had an opportunity to show what they could do on the road. the demand has been so great that 1t is evident that even with the unparalleled facilities of the Packard factory. the plant will have to be operated at its utmost capacity all winter to dispose of the $10,00O,000 accumulation of orders and provide ad- ditional deliveries for early spring.

SIMPLE RULES FOR
 CARE 0F AUTO TIRES
J. s. Taylor, Manager Good year Branch, Gives Some Timely Hints for the
 Preservation of Tires

Its remarkable how the number of take the best care of their tires is in creasing," says Jewell Taylor, branch manager of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company. Its especially grat- flying to note the growing army of motorists who actually do care for their tires, who follow instructions, watch tire performance, maintain prop CT pressures, attend to small injuries in time, and thus greatly reduce their cost per mile of service. The campaigns of education conducted by tire com panies along this line have borne fruit and motorists are better satisfied and their relations with the man who sells them their tires are much more pleas ant.
 Just now Goodyear is carrying the same kind of campaign to truck own ers-showing how tire care makes tire mileage and reduces tire cost Our service department has issued series of nine bulletins on truck tire con- servation. These point out avoidable sources of tire trouble and show how remarkable tire mileage Is often ob- tained. The bulletins are illustrated and show the befor and after situa- ton vividly and graphically. Car tracks, for instance quickly demolish truck tires. When truck is run in the track just a narrow edge of a tire rests on the rail and carries the whole load. The answer is easy. In the case of dual tires tho wearing effect is more pronounced, because the narrow part of tire bearing on the rail carries weight intended to be distributed over two tires
 Rough roads should be taken more slowly than good ones. Avoid the ruts Give your tires consideration.
 Trim the edges of small cuts. Don't leave little flaps of rubber hanging. for if you do they'll develop into long tears and ruin the tire. If trimmed smoothly, they will not grow.
 Keep wheels aligned. When they're not, there's a grind that often wears tire as much in a thousand miles as 1t would wear in 10000 miles with proper alignment. Trucks cost money and truck tires cost money, too The better the tire performance the lower the cost of truck upkeep. It is easy to see how the truck industry Is going to grow. Goodyear wants to do all it can to make the tire part of truck opera tion economical and satisfaction to the owner. Our conservation bulletins. we believe, will help nightly. wheth- CT the man who reads them used Good years or not'

EMP[OYES' CLUBS AT CHALMERS FACTORY
Suggested by Hugh Chal- mers-New Clubs to Elm brace Educational and
 Social Features

Addressing the entire office force and factory department heads of the Chalmers Motor company recently, Hugh Chalmers advocated the found ing of two clubs for the young men and women employees of the company.
 The clubs, to be known as the Young Mems Chalmers club and the Young Women's Chalmers club. will combine fraternal and educational features and will further serve to develop a friend, ly cooperation between the various de- partments.
 President Chalmers suggestions for the twin clubs came as the climax of an informal talk at the opening of the new auditorium in the big Jefferson avenue plant
 because it Is our idea to make pro- motions wherever possible from our own ranks, said Mir. Chalmers. And by all means. think. It is far more necessary to run this plant by brain power than by horse power. Anyone can purchase electric current from the Edison company, but if a central mar ket for brains exists, we have yet to find it.
 To-day the trouble with the average young man is that he expects to ad- vance in the world through right of succession or because the boss likes him. or for some other mysterious req son. We lack the developed men, the men who have built up their abilities step by step. and are ready for in- creased responsibilities when called upon. We have reason to be thankful that the only real aristocracy in this country is one of brains and decency. And there is still plenty of demand for men of brains and initiative for the big jobs in every business. Our trouble, nowadays, is not in securing skilled labor, but in getting the men to fill the $4000, $5O00 and $6000 jobs.
 "To the young women who earn 8 living in any department of our plant want to emphasize the fortunate con- ditions under which you work. Caste has no place in the Chalmers organ ization and that applies with equal force to both men and women employees. If there Is any appellation I despise, it Is comprised in the two words, work ing girl We owe the utmost respect and honor to every woman who earns her own livelihood"
 In appointing committee to organ ize the, Young Mems club, Mir. Chal- mers suggested that the club take up matters of civic as we'll as educational work. "We at least want to have as many churches as saloons in Detroit and you young men can do a large part toward keeping the balance in favor of the churches" commented MT. Chalmers.
 Under the rules of the new club, ev- cry young man in the factory and off, ces will be eligible, and a membership of over 2000 seems to be assured The club will be run entirely by the mem bers and no officer or foreman will hold office.
