A Statement by John w. Bate, the Efficiency Expert

The latest Mitchell, in every
detail, typihes my ideals of
efficiency
| have never said that before.
. Yet | have devoted 13 years to
this car. | have made some 700

18th model.
We have all kept silent on my
objects until my work was done.
Efficiency is This:
Efficiency means doing things
in the best way possible.
In the factoryit means economy.
1t means minute-saving at every
point. 1t means right arrange
ment. 1t means trained men. 1t
means machines to perform each
operation in the quickest way.
We have that now. The
Mitchell plant is the model of
this industry.
We have worked out here
factory saving of at least so per
cent. A car like the Mitchell, in
most modern plants, would cost
the maker at least one-ffth more
than here.

Sweden, in retaliation, has re

There is no immediate possibili

Ulysses s. Grant saw his first active
military service as a lieutenant IN the

War.
Nearly forty years later, when the
great soldier wrote his memoirs. he ex-
pressed his opinion of that war in no
neutral terms:

this day regard the war which resulted
as one of the most unjust ever waged
by stronger against a weaker nation.
1t was an instance OF q republic fol
lowing the bad example of European
monarchies in not considering Justice IN
their desire to acquire additional ter

/ If Ulysses s. Grant were still alive
it would be easy to guess his opinion
of the sordid crew that is trying te
force another war with Mexico as {

1t would be easy to guess his opinion
