STATE TO PAY
MILITIA; NOT
UNITED STATES

WASHINGTON. Jan. 6.-The state
and not the nation should pay the
guard for any service it rem
ders in the opinion OF Secretary OF War
Garrison in opening the fight for the
administration preparedness policy be-
fore the house military affairs com.
mittee.
The war secretary made it plain
that he was not too favorably inclined
toward making the guard a serious
factor in the preparedness plan. In a
very lengthy statement the secretary
reviewed the arguments already made
in his annual report showing why he
believed the administrations army
plan should be enacted into law.
Although many members OF the
committee are on record as favoring
federal pay for militia and Chairman
Hays in his preliminary draft of an
army bill has included such a provis-
ion, Mr.. Garrison frankly stated that
he always felt that any pay for home
training should come from the states
themselves.

ment. Undoubtedly the board will
approve such project and ask council
to authorize temporary loan or bond
issue to finance It. Fire Chief Miller
estimates that 1t will require $4,000
to motorize the four horse-drawn chem
ical wagons now used.
Tomorrow morning the board will
meet and discuss the advisability of
adopting a policy which will provide
that no more macadam streets shall
be constructed without some binding
material, preferably tarvia. Such a
policy will mean a greater cost for
constructing such streets, but the
board hopes to4-devise some plan.

Either would be acceptable to the
great majority of Progressives; either
would be satisfactory to the rank and

AUTO VALUES NOT
ALONE IN PRICES

Now that automobiles have come
to be rogarded as staple article,
Ike roti estate, furniture. machinery
and other things involving a large
unit of expenditure, the public quite
naturally weighs automobile worth to
greater extent than formerly and
chooses cars on the basis OF an in
vestment. Instead of relying upon
first hand impressions, motor car
buyers consider the dollar for dollar
value, and choose accordingly.
1t was not so many years ago
when the public figured automobile
value on the basis of price alone.
They took for granted that the high
er the price the better must be the
value. Those were the days before
quantity production came into vogue,

manufacture and distribution of mo-
