STRIKE AS PROTEST
ON HIGH COST OF FOOD

Madrid December ia "a hour
general strike called by the labor or
CARNATIONS as protest against the
increased price of food takes place to-
morrow throughout Spain. Factor
les, stores and many offices will be
closed and no newspapers published.
The authorizes have posted notices
appealing to the good sense of the
public to maintain order and announc-
ing that any disturbances would be
vigorously dealt with.
The 24-hour general strike called by
the labor organizations as a protest
against the increased price of food has
resulted in a complete tie-up of fac
tories, stores and other businesses
throughout Spain. Quiet prevails.
Soldiers and civil guards fill the
streets, and great precautions have
been taken against disturbances.

SAXON SIX" PRICES GO UP
JANUARY l
Increase in Cost of Raw Materials
Forces Rise of $50 for Both
Models

One of the most recent among mo-
tor car companies to announce an in
crease in price is the Saxon Motor
Car Corporation which has come to
front with a $50 advance over their
former price of $915-this to take ef-
feet Jan. 1st
This rise i'll price has been predict
ed for some months. Practically all
of the other fine cars have announced
higher prices to. meet soaring labor
and material costs. And it was known
that the Saxon Company, in view of
their high Quality standards, would be
forced to fall in line soon. Prices Of
materials entering into the construc-
ton OF automobiles have experienced
as great, if not greater, rises than
have other commodities.
The same high quality standard
Of the Saxon Motor Car Corporation
as adhered to in the past will be main

president and general manager.
ITO cover the increased cost of la
Dor and material the price must be
advanced $50 Due to the making of
foresighted contracts, we have been
able to hold off this inevitable adj
vance until January lst. There is real
ly no need for commenting on the in
crease which has not materially adj
vanced in the past year.
I'VE are producing better car
than formerly, in the face of vastly
increased costs, but with a slight in
crease in price to the public. By
more efficient production methods and
the elimination of all waste material
and labor, we have solved the prob
lem of putting Saxon value into our
cars without making the public bear
the burden"

he would have expected to see her. He
ran downstairs to the front door to

Henry Rokeson, scarce knowing what
he did. threw his arms about her. She
wrenched herself free with an ex-

tho door. Henry, blind to all except
his love for her, cried out:

He caught her again in his arms.
