 In speech against Che bill, Sena- tor Tanner declared chat the condi. tions ir Alaska were not like those in the States of the Union which abol. ished capital punishment He said the law should remain as it is and cited the only two legal hangings ever held in Alaska, one at Nome. and the other at SitSa. when Homer Bird was hanged for murder committed on the Yukon river. He referred to the in- dian depredations of several years ago. when eleven natives were arrest ed by him. for the murder of a school teacher and his wife He declared that in spite of the fact that the leader confessed to an the revolting details of the murder. he was sentenced to life Imprisonment. and would have been pardoned had not death over taken him

BOARD TO DIM HEADLIGHTS.
Baltimore Body Will Control Daz-
cling Lamps in City Limits.

The glaring automobile headlight that
blinds pedestrians is now a thing OF
the past in Baltimore. What do and
what do not constitute proper head
lights within the meaning of the new
ordinance. which went into effect July
l, was decided upon recently by the
board of motor vehicle and headlight
inspection, at n meeting held at the
Auto Club of Maryland, IL West Mount
Royal avenue.
The law provides that no operator OF
motor vehicle shall use a dazzling
acetylene or electric lamp on the front
of his car within the limits of Balti-
more city unless the light be covered,
shaded or dimmed. to do away with the
dazzle and glare. A fine of from 81
and from IS to S25 for each subsequent
offense. For the purpose of the ordi-
nance the owner of the vehicle is held
to be the operator. Power is vested In
the headlight board to define whit are
headlights and to establish standards
Of illumination for automobiles.
Everything possible has been done to
prevent the new ordinance working a
hardship upon the automobile owner.
Eight patent devices for the dimming
of headlights have been approved by
the board, but the purchase of these is
not made compulsory. Paint, brass pol
ish or soap can be used upon the inside
of the glass to soften the glare. but the
degree of capacity attained must be as
required in general order No. 4. issued
by the board.
That order provides that the capacity
must be such as will prevent the out
lines of the flame or electric lights be-
ing visible when looking through the
glass from the front"

official announcement is made as to the
future policy.
Whether or not the practice OF an
nouncing new automobile models in
the middle of the selling season will
continue, or the date be advanced I'M
til fall or the New York automobile
show, is a question being given seri-
Gus consideration at this time by a
number of automobile manufacturers
and committee appointed by the Ma
tiona1 Automobile Chamber of Com
merce. This committee has been ap-
pointed for the sole purpose of investi-
eating midseason announcements.
Manufacturers realize that to make an
nouncements just when automobile pur-
chasers are about to place their orders
Is problem, said to be worthy of in
vestigation. Dealers generally, 1t is
said, seem to favor getting away from
midseason announcements. A number
Of automobile purchasers have gone on
record as being in favor of seeing new
models in the early spring rather than
just at the time the buying public is
about to purchase.

in the National, Capital that this figure
was reached last Monday. This num-
Der of cars was to be sold from August
l, 1914, to August l of this year. July
l this concern had manufactured and
sold 292 900 cars, with an entire month
in which to produce 5000 cars in order
to reach the required number. At the
present time more than 10000 cars are
being produced a month in this one
plant alone. When / visited the plant
a few days ago 10000 men were being
employed in three shifts of eight hours
each. Shipments were delayed by the
non-arrtval of some minor part. but
this has all been overcome. The con-
Eveyor system Is working overtime. and
as fast as the cars reach the end of the
incline the motor Is automatically
started and after being tested are shot
into the freight cars for various points.
There are now in operation through
out the world 100000 Ford cars, and
creased to 100000 by October /.
Incidentally. there is nothing in the
rumor that has gained everywhere that
Henry Ford is going into the construc-
ton of motor cycles. While the writer
has an inkling of what the policy for
1916 is to be. he is not at liberty to
make any announcement at this time.
There will also be some surprises in
store when the new branch is COM
pleted in Washington. The new
Pennsylvania avenue Is to be in COM
plete harmony with the plans to make
Washington the most beautiful city in
the world. The building is to be tri-
angular In shape, measuring 139 by 166
by 1875 feet. Rising six stories in
height, it will be noticeable feature
of the Washington landscape. While
the property on the same side Of the
Avenue is now occupied by low build
ings. indications point to the early
erection of modern structures. The
writer predicts that within two years
from the time of the completion Of the
Ford branch Pennsylvania avenue will
be known as Automobile row." COM

operation adjoining the plant. In ad-
dition an artificial hill has been con-
structed with a fifteen per cent grade
and is said to equal any hill test IN
this section. The hill Is constructed or
steel Orders and trestle work. While
it has not been officially announced 1t
is not predicted that any reduction In
price will take place in the models for
the coming season. About 5000 men
are employed in the day and night
shifts at the present time.
Out at the Packard Motor Car Com
pany 1 found several new buildings
being erected in order to care for the
increased business. One of the new
buildings was a machine shop, three
stories in height. So rapid has been
the increase in the motor truck BUSH
ness that it has become necessary to
erect new three-story structure to take
care of that end of the business. The
building of motor trucks, since the
outbreak of the European war has

an assembly plant, according to re-
ports. It's principal uses will be as a
service station for Ford owners in the
capital, and it will serve as central
meeting place for the tourists who
visit the city in great numbers each
year. Because of the fact that great
many such visitors are expected, the
salesroom and showroom will be larg
er than in the majority of Ford
branches, and special attention will be
given to making the guests COM
Portable.
AS an indication Of the great impetus
all over the country in sales of auto
mobiles, the Saxon Motor Company is
setting new records for shipments
every day. An average Of 120 cars
day is being maintained at the big
plant here. Records such as this make
it a simple matter to understand the
optimism that prevails throughout the
automobile industry, and the prediction
that is frequently made to the effect
that more automobiles will be sold this

with the production. Shortage of radi-
ators and bodies seems to be in the main
responsible for hold-ups, but these are
rapidly being overcome. and this week
will see every concern running at full
speed. While, as has been mentioned,
there is tendency to reduce the price
of cars for next season, the manufac-
turers feel that their profits at the end
of the year will be just as large. if not
larger, being offset by the increase in
the production. The motor car is now
considered a utility rather than a lux
ury. The public seems to demand
low priced machine. accompanied by
good workmanship and service, for
everyday use.
There is one concern in which the
public Is probably more concerned than
any other, and that is the Ford Motor
Company, by reason of the rebate
