TO SHIP AUTOS
Scarcity of Freight Cars
Forces Manufacturers
to Take This Step.

The scarcity Of freight cars at au-
tomobile manufacturing centers is
causing very serious situation from
distribution standpoint. and coming
at this time when the spring rush is
on ana the greatest demand for motor
cars ever known. it is taxing the in
genuity of the factories and the rail
roads to the utmost to devise q way
of caring for the heavy production.
Many of the companies have for
some time past been loading ma
chimes on flat and gondola ears. COW
ering them with tarpaulins and send
ing men along to watch the cars.
f.. s. Worthington. manager of the
Carhart Motor company of Tulsa, re-
turned last Saturday from Oklahoma
City where he met the state distribu-
tor. f.. Richard Carhart. and had a
most pleasant visit with his former
superior, II. b. Harper, sales man
ager of the WHY'S Overland company.
Mr.. Harper at that time urged the
necessity Of promptly unloading rail-
road equipment and accepting de-
liveries in any kind of railroad cars
available.
"You must not be surprised" said
Mr. WorthingtOn, Ito see carload or

e WHITE TRUCKS
FOR ARMY SERVICE
Special Trainload Leaves
White Factory for
Mexico.

Speed with which American indus
tries can be modified" to supply
the sudden needs of the United States
army was demonstrated yesterday
when a long-distance telephone call
from the war department to The
White company resulted in the dis
pate hing of special trainload of
White army escort trucks to the
Mexican border within "a hours after
the order was placed. This special
train, now speeding toward the border
under special orders and full right
of-way, carried 2S trucks which Will
comprise the first motor truck com.
pany of the United States army.
Twelve hours later the White COM
pany had supplied the personnel
of this truck unit form large
number of employees anxious to serve.
Th.rty-four picked men were
enlisted to act as drivers, mech
anics. and truckmasters, and the
company left Cleveland in spe-
cial car Under command of Captain
James w. Furlow, L. S. A. Although
the ultimate destination of the com
pany is unknown. due to the censor
ship covering military movements and
information. the trucks will be un-
loaded in El Paso and begin their
intcndCn of completing the organiza-
tion and equipment in FL Paso is
talen rs an indication that the trucks
will convoy. the column of General
Pershing in the punitive expedition
across the border. The orga nization
of the first motor truck company,
which marks the last stand of the
army mule, not only disclosed the
speed with which military emergen-
cies can be met. but revealed the de-
gree of preparedness maintained by
Americas largest motor truck manu-
facturer. The same flexible manufac-
turing facilities which have enabled
this company to supply large fleets
of motor trucks to big corporations
on short notice enabled the company
TO meet this military eXigency with
out loss of time. Smaller companies,
building trucks only as ordered. would
have required several weeks time TO
complete the necessary chassis fol-
lowing the telephone order for equip
ment The White company was able
to put the 2S trucks under severe
read test, load them on freight cars
and start the train i'm less than "a
hours Almost simultaneously the
bodies for these trucks were shipped
from the quartersmaster depot at
Jeffersonvil!e. Ind. The bodies to be
mounted on these trucks are the reg
ulation army field wagon bodies that
are familiar to most people and SIM
liar to those used in Cuba, the Philip
pines. Alaska and China. They are
to be mounted on chassis of one and
n half ton capacity and will be fitted
with the regulation bows and canvas

SOUTHERN TOUR
TO Be IN JANUARY
Mid Winter Automobile
Tours Are Popular
in Southwest.

Mid-January has never been and is
not likely to generally become u pop
ular season for the conduct of auto
mobile excursions. yet January 3-l6
we're the dates selected py the War
ren District Commercial cub for a
Southern Arizona businessmen's auto
mobile excursion from Tucson, Tomb
stone, nisbee and Douglas to III raso.
Not only were these dates selected
but the excursion proved IA highly
en- niONablc success from beginning TO
end. The distance trlversed varied
from 1GG miles for Tucson tourists
to 517 miles for Douglas tourists, the
former taking TWO days longer for
the trip.
Road betterment was the underly-
ing cause that took between 80 to 50
business men Of Southern Arizona
away from their ordinary vocations
but other reasons and attractions
were added by the Warren District
Commercial club in fathering the prof.
ect The FL Paso Chamber of Com
mcrce had conducted businessmen =
excursions by train into Arizona and
to return such visits was II reason
that was put forth. Arizona was TO
show its "up-to-datcneSs' by travel
ing in automobiles and forsa<ing
steel ribbons. The business element
entered in the establishment of still
more friendly trade relations: the So
cial element entered in the renewing
OF acquaintances and friendships. and
there was the novelty Of the outing
wherein tourists of the country were
to be shown that the people of South
ern Arizona not only advertised the
Horderland route as the only one open
the year around, but they use II them
selves at all seasons.
Tourists Establish Cutoff
For the past two or three years
Grant county, New Mexico, has failed
to keep up or improve roads between
I.ordsburg and Rodee despite the fact
that the road between Granite Gap
and the Animas valley was the worst
between El Paso and Yuma and furth-
ei despite the fact that Arizona was
spending hundreds Of thousands Of
dollars of state funds on Highways
that are part of the Borderland
route. 1t was to establish cutoff
to avoid such bad roads that the trip
was primarily designed. The cutoff
was traversed, legged, mapped and
signed on the trip and will be gem
orally used in future.
A storm of rain that turned to snow
and whitened the mountains about
Tucson made four car owners OF the
Old Pueblo abandon the trip, but
state Engineer Lamar Cobb made the
trip through the Santa Rita Noun
tains from Tucson to Bisbee in six and
a half hours and joined the excursion
party at Bisbee. Illness of members
of the party at Douglas caused two
or three Tombstone cars 20 turn back
but twelve cars left Bisbce and siN
Douglas early Thursday morning,

DAKOTA CENTRAL SOLD

The South Dakota Central railroad,
which went into the hands of a re-
ceiver some time ago, was sold Mon
day afternoon at a masters sale in
Sioux Falls for the sum of 1852 900.
The road was purchased by C. E. Kali
man, of st. Paul, but it is reported
that the actual purchasers are the
officials of the Great Northern rail-
road.
The Central has had a checkered
career, yet the earnings have been
equal to that of any equal number of
miles of road in South Dakota. 1t is
reported that the sum realized from
the sale will pay off the outstanding
bonds but will not clean up the indebt-
edness. Something over two million
dollars worth Of stock was sold in the
promotion and organization of the
road, which amount, it is said, will De
a total loss to the stockholders.

the early part Of the week. A move
to defeat Vice President Marshall was
launched by Henry Morgenthau and
Secretary of War Newton D. Baker
was brought forward to run with
President Wilson. The most startling
was doubtless the invitation of Chair
mar McCombs to cambridge Colby,
of New York, the progressive leader
who nominated Roosevelt for the pro-
gressives to join the Democratic party.
A split in the ranks of the Democratic
party seemed certain, according to
conservatives, due to the attack
launched against Hughes because he
is attempting, they declare, to use the
United States supreme court as a step
ping stone to political office. Conser-
vative members do not regard this
feature as any importance as they say
the Democratic party is by no means
spotless in this respect.
The Democratic delegates began
reaching ST. Louis on Tuesday in large
numbers. All of the 1902 delegates
and the same number Of alternates
were on hand Wednesday morning.
William Jennings Bryan is on hand
but merely as an alternate and a news
paper reporter. He will have no
power in the convention and will not
be permitted to speak unless the dele
gates unanimously consent.
1t is thought that the delegates will
make quick work of their task and re-
suits of the convention be known be-
fore Saturday.

for the occasion. Lodging and break
fast will be furnished all delegates.
Many forms Of recreation have been
provided for the visitors.
Several very strong speakers are TO
be given a place on the program. Fore
most among them is Rev. II. II. Ritz
of Ripon, Wisconsin, field sec
rotary for the northwest.
AS a splendid team-mate for Rev.
Rottman, Rev, c. +. van der Maater
comes with his many years of exper-
fence in Endeavor work.
And the state convention would not
be complete without the SCI of
Rev. James 0. Boswell, of Minneap-
oils, who is one of the foremost OF
Bible instructors in this part of the
country.
A good many of the state officers
will be present also.
The music of the convention is to
be under the direction of II. T.. Good
sell and is bound to be of inspiration
under his direction. He has had
splendid success in his profession, es-
pecially in his leadership of young peo-
pies choruses. And with its wealth
of musical talent, Aberdeen should be
able to present a very interesting pro-
e. am.
