What Shall america DO
About Armed Merchantmen?
Questions OF International Law Discussed Length by Au
thorty the Subject-Possibiitics
OF War Involved


/ oar government might warn them
of the danger Of such travel unncces-
sary as that seems, but the govern
ment has no right TO restrict their
travelling on such vessels whore they
have a right to go.
Is It the patriotic duty Of Americans
20 keep off bclllgercnt vessels and
travel exclusively In American or neu-
trial vosscls2
/ II has never been considered a par.
I OF American patriotism 10 foreRo The
! exercise of the rights OF an American
citizen especially when tho interests
/ Of the individual are important
enough TO lead him to risk his life
( for them In these circumstances
/ It Is his country's duty to protect him
I and not to ask him to forego his rights
80 os to relieve It Of It's legitimate re-
/ sponsibilities to him. If the neutral
/ governments had been careful at the
7 beginning OF tho war to insist upon
the Observance Of neutral rights. this
question would never have been
asked.
II Great Britain during the Russo
+ Japanese war warned her subjects
not to travel on hellgereut vessels,
/ why should II not be honorable for
the American government to issue a
similar warning to American citizens?
Great Britain had in the sens where
naval operations were conducted the
! finest fleet Of merchant vessels Of
I any nation. and the warning which
/ she issued to her citizens put them
TO no Inconvenience. but was perhaps
a disguised way af increasing the pa
tronage Of British liners. Great Brit
aims action WIS mostly political She
never would have recognized that she
must issue such q warning and the
effect upon either heligerent was Of
hlfnng importance. 1t has no bear
ing on the submarine issue. British
subjects travelling n Russian and
Japanese vessels we've likey to be
captured and otherwise Inconvenience
ed Her warnings brought 10 their
attention tho inevitable consequences
of a state OF war. and did not in any
way diminish the protection which
she intended TO accord them.
II Americans, after we have warned
them TO keep Off armed merchant
mon. should be sunk by a torpedo
without warning would this govern
mont be justified in refusing TO take
any action2
Certainly not.

part Of the purchasers is but a fore
runner of What may be expected this
spring. All indications point toward
the greatest year in the history NJ the
automobile industry and dealers IN
every section of the country are maxi
ing preparations for the busiest sell
ing season in their lives.
The increasing demand for the Oy-
erland product is startling, even to
those in close touch with the situ-
alton.
In January, 1915, the total number
Of cars that left the factory amounted
to 4,613, while during the month Just
ended the shipments amounted TO
1888. The increase was even great-
er during the earlier months Of the
1916 season as compared to the cor
responding months of the previous
year
A year ago the daily shipments
from the overland factory averaged
$50 cars or less than one-fourth of
its present output. In one year John
n. WHY'S, president Of the COMPANY
has increased the manufacturing fa-
cilitics so that it is now possible to
build 1000 machines every twenty
four hours
The present floor space available
for manufacturing purposes is t03
acres or 4.4S6,6S0 square feet. This
is fourteen times the size of the or
iginal plant when taken over by Mr.
WHY'S eight years ago and at that
time the factory was one Of the larg
est in the industry.

STOP! CAL0MEL <
IS QUICKSILVER
It's Mercury Attacks the
Bones, SaIivates and
Makes You Sick.

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating cal
omel when SO cents buys a large bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone-a perfect
substitute for calomel
It is Il pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver Just as
surely as ealomel, but it doesn't make
you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is per-
fectly harmless
Ca!omel is a dangerous drug. 1t is
mercury and attacks your bones. Take
a dose of nasty calomel today and you
will feel weak, sick and nauseated to-
morrow. Don't lose a days work. Take
spoonful Of Dodsons Liver Tone in
stead and you viii wake up feeling
great. No more biliousness, consti-
patton, sluggishness, headache, coat
ed tongue or sour stomach. Your
druggist says If you don't find bod
sons Liver Tone acts better than hor-
rible calomel your money is waiting
for you.
