ADAIR MINISTER'S FOR HARDING

Notwithstanding the action of num-
erous ministerial associations, four
OF the five ministers of Adair church
es are for Harding. The News does
not know the sentiments of the new
minister of the Methodist Episcopal
church, but he has been in Boston
we understand and probably is not
sufficiently familiar with conditions
to wish to express a preference. Re-
Gently the Presbytery of the Presby-
terrain church which was held at
Council Bluffs unanimously turned
down an anti-Harding resolution,
and we have the word of Presby-
terrain minister that the reports of
the meetings where resolutions were
said to have been passed, as publish
ed In The Des Moines Register, have
not been true in detail. All of them
have been greatly overdrawn. 1t
must be clear to sane thinking peo-
pie that Mr.. Harding is NOT the
heavyweight" william that he is pic
tured every day. Fair minded peo-
| pie should resent such newspaper
tactics as are now being EMPLOYED
against him by Sore-Head Cowles' Des
Moines Register and few of is polit-
ical gangsters.---Adair News.

have been seeking relief by the use OF dual

on singh pneumatic equipment The single
tire obviously does away with difficulty OF
maintaining equal afr pressure in duals.
Not only are these big tires proving their
worth by providing greater cushioning and
freedom from tire trouble, but they greatly

STUDEBAKER SHIPMENTS

CADILLAC ESTABLISHES
MANY ROAD RECORDS

Repeatedly. in various parts of the
country, stock models Of the Cadillac
eight have set fast road records
racing against time and against railroad
trains. over dangerous mountain roads
and level plains. One of the early
achievements was last June, when one
Of these cars was driven from Los An
geles to San Francisco in competition
with the Southern Pacifics fastest train
between the two cities. known as the
Lark. Most of the Cadllacs trip OF
40 y miles was made in the dark, at an
utes, at an average speed OF 1913 miles
per hour over dangerous mountain
roads. The train was beaten by z
margin Of one hour and 50 minutes.
Soon afterward came word of the
cars feat in beating by almost two
hours the time over the 125 miles from
Butte to MissOula, Mont. in the yell
lowstone trail relay run. This distance
was made in three hours and 80 min
utes.at an average speed Of 1878 miles
an hour, as against the best previous
motor car record Of five hours, 40
minutes.
In quick succession followed the
race from Denver 90 Cheyenne between
"a Union Pacific special train and a
Cadillac eight" the train travelling
112 miles TO the CadillaGs 116 miles.
Nevertheless the car arrived two
aged about so miles an hour to make
the run i'm two hours. Is minutes.
Next Indiana came in with the usual
result-fast train beaten by n Cadillac
eight" This was between IndianapO-
lis and Terre Haute. the car making
the - miles i'm q minutes, against ~
minutes for the train.
Another California achievement of
recent date was the Los Angeles
Bakersfield round trip in five hours. 40
minutes for the 260 miles, breaking the
record Of a 12-cylinder car over the
same route by 0ne hour and "a minutes.
Opposed to all these records of high
speed and emphasizing the ability Of
the car, is the slow speed. high gear
test of a Cadillac eight" i'm Seattle.

miles per hour for 1911 feet requiring
