Increases Efficiency of
Small Delivery Truck

Attachment Of special frame and
rear construction to a Ford car to in
crease its carrying capacity as a de-
livery truck has been introduced sue
cessfCilly in the Smith form a truck"
The new device allows the entire chassis
OF a Ford car to be slid inside of its
frame. and the two are there firmly
bolted and riveted together. The rear
axlcs Of the Ford are used as a jack
shaft. and are equipped with sDroeket
wheels which carry roller chairs that
engage with sprockets on the rear
wheels for driving the truck. Ninety
per cent Of the dead load is carried on
the rear wheels. and there is less strain
on the front wheels and aNles than
when the Ford was in use as a pleasure
car.
The device gives ample strength to
carry loads OF over a ton. and provides
a loading space back Of the seat nearly
nine feet long

A GENERAL
RISE IN AUTO PRICES
Hugh Chalmers Tells How Euro.
pean War Has Affected
MOtor-Making Industry.

An increase OF 500 in the price Of the
Chalmers $40 touring car, from 1850
to H.45O. effective march /, was an
nounced at the recent Chicago autoTno-
bile show by executives OF the Chalmers
Motor Company. Coming on the heels
Of sharp advances in the cost of all raw
materials, the announcement may be
the forerunner of similar policies
throughout the industry.
Raw materials have advanced in
price to new high levels I'm the past
lew months, and the end is not yet in
sight" said Hugh Chalmers. We have
found II impossible to manufacture n
car conforming to our standards at the
former production cost. Rather than
sacrifice quality we have decided to ad-
vance the cars price.
II predict a general upward revision
of motor car prices before many
months. There Is no other way out for
the automobile manufacturer. The
European war has been responsible in
a great degree for the big increase in
the costs of raw materials. The tre-
mendous demand for steel. copper, tin,
lead, aluminium, sheet metals and other
materials for use in the manufacture
of war munitions has made prices high
and deliveries uncertain.
''Vanadium steel, which sold at $1.S5
a pound only a year ago. has jumped
to $3.50 a pound. Aluminium has
nearly tripled in price, going from 10
cents a pound TO So cents a pounI.
other sensational increases are: steel
bars, from $1.10 a hundred to 50 a
hundred; high speed steel, from S1.06
a pound to $3.35: leather from 20
cents foot to 33 cents a foot; copper,
from IA cents pound to "a cents
pound.
Added to the many troubles OF the
motor-car maker is the difficulty in
securing machine tools and automatic
machinery of the latest type. Fac
tories turning out shrapnel and other
munitions of war have practically
corralled the output of the machinery
inakers Steel mills are making no
promises of delivery within six
months, and parts manufacturers are
accordingly held up in their produo-
tion. Almost every concern in the
metal industry is turning down or
ders. having accumulated a quantity
! sufficient to keep them at top speed
for months to come.
"The situation can result in only one
thing-higher prices on cars within
the next sixty days. II we find that
materials continue to climb after the
500 increase in price on our car has
taken effect, we will undoubtedly be
&C Cmpelled to again raise the price.
We have as yet made no change in
the price of the chalmers Six-3O
model, now selling at $1,000. because
this car is being built from materials
purchased last spring"

REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY.
l am a Republican, and believe in
the principles and policies of that
party. | am, however, unwilling to
place the party above the country, or

the demands Of the people in the hour
Of national peril and in times of the
greatest prosperity and expar sion.
Under the guidance and control Of
that party have been instituted and
carried out the greatest constructive
work, internal improvements, indus
trial development and reforms.
This country is now facing some Of
the gravest problems Of its history
problems of pl eparing the country for
defense, of maintaining the national
honor, Of maintaining the high stand
ard and protecting the rights of Amer
can citizenship; problems Of interna-
tional relations in this great crisis Of
world affairs; problems of social JUS
lice, industrial conditions and govern

problems we are, and should be, a unit
ed people, having but one purpose
that to perpetuate our government and
Institutions and maintain the prosper

pie. While human progress Is always

ASKS LIBERAL. SUPPORT
FOR TRAINING SCHOOL
Judge Pritchard Says Institution at
Durham, N. c., Has Merit.

In letter to the New York Tribune
recently United States Circuit Court
Judge ]. G. Pritchard of the Fourth
district at Richmond, Va, expresses his
approval Of the work being done by the
National Training school, Durham,
N. @. Judge Pritchard says:
II desire through the columns Of your
paper to call attention to the work Of
the National Training school at Dur
ham, N. c., for the Negro. This school
Is farreaching in its influence. It Is
endeavoring to give to the Negro high
ideals and develop character. Its aim
primarily Is to direct the emotional
tendencies Of the race into practical
channels and make it means Of uplift.
ITO this end 1t is training leaders In
Industrial, literary, social and religious
walks and sending out these men and
women so trained to reach others. To
my mind no school iC founded upon
truer lines or is destined to do a great.
er work and especially with such a
small expenditure Of money.
General Julian s. Carr, commander
of the Confederate Veterans Of North
Carolina and one of the largest hosiery
mill owners in the south, says Of this
work: 4 know when school Is worthy.
This one is. 1t is founded upon right
lines. I am glad to accept the chair
manship Of the new board Of trustees
Of this institution for the Negroes, and,
although I am resigning from boards
Of institutions having to do with my
own race, l want to help the Negro
and believe that this school furnishes
to me the best MEANS
"Dr. Charles II. Parkhurst and Colo
mel Theodore Roosevelt have also heart.
lily indorsed this work. The immediate
need of this school is $500 monthly
with which to meet current expenses.
$4,000 for buildings and $4,000 for
heat and water.
"The Negro is here with us. He must
be lifted up and properly trained. This
can be done best by well trained lead
ers Of his own race who are sent out
to meet the masses. l have faith In
this school and its president ! would
lie very glad indeed If gifts for the edu
cation and training Of the Negro could
largely go to supply the pressing needs
and equipment Of the National Train
ing school, Durham, n. c., Of which DR.
James Il. Shepard is president.
Additional information and facts I'm
regard to this important work can be
had from him. believe that no gift
will be more worthily bestowed.
