On or about December 1st, the prices Of Stude-
baker cars---both the FOUR and the SIX-wil be ad-
vanced from SIS to 500 over prevailing prices
In the face of the rapid increase in the cost of the
raw materials entering into the construction of Stude-
baker cars present prices have been maintained.
But now conditions in the industry have reached
point where Studebaker forced to add substantial
increase to these prices.
For the past eighteen months there have been
rapid advances in the cost of all materials enter
ing into the manufacture of automobilesespeciay
steel of all kinds pig iron castings, stapings, sheet
metal aluminium leather and upholstering materials.
And these advances range all the way from 40 to
$50 per cent.
Studebaker has always been satisfied with small
margin of profitand you may rest assured that even
with substantial increase prevailing prices, both
the FOUR and the SIX will still be the most powerful
sevenpassenger cars in the world at their prices And
YOU will still have to pay from $500 to $500 more to
equal them in power, roomness, economy, beauty OF
design, and all-round dependability
Our allotment of Studebaker at the
present prices is very limited and is likely
to be exhausted at any time. So, if you
want to save from $75 to $780, we urge
YOU to come in at

MOOSE REJECTS
DRY" PLATFORM
Table Resolution BY Vote of
523 to 81, Saying They
Favor 1t, But vii!
MOI Adopt 1t.

Auditorium, Chicago, June 10.-The
progressive convention by a vote Of
52S to 80, tabled a resolution favoring
prohibition. Delegates expressed the
opinion that while they favor prohibit
ton, they do not want to make 1t the
main issue in the party's campaign.
Delegate w. d. Cooper, Of Lawrence,
kas launched the prohibition fight in
Producing an amendment proposing a
federal constitutional amendment to
prohibit the sale, manufacture, impor-
tatton and expectation of intoxicating
liquors. 1t was greeted with prolonged
applause. His amendment read as fol-
lows:
we pledge ourselves to submit to the
people of the United States an amend
ment to the constitution forbidding the
sale, manufacture, importation and eX-
portation of intoxicating liquors"
Henry Allen, of Kansas, urged adop-
ton of the plank which he said has
designed to conserve humanity"
James r. Garfield differed with Allen,
not, as he said, because he did not be-
lieve in prohibition, but because its
in the platform would make
prohibition the main issue in the cam
paign and not be to the best interests
of the party.
Takes Time.
1.-THE liquor question" he said, us one
that must be solved by the slow tedious
process of education. This party should
not make prohibition an issue in this
campaign unless we are willing to for
get all other issues. 1t takes courage 20
postpone, but l hope this convention
will refuse a prohibition plank" said
Garfield in conclusion. The applause
was vigorous.
Former Lieutenant Governor Wal
lace Of California, who spoke for the
amendment suggested that Roosevelt be
asked whether such a plank should be
inserted, but the delegates groaned dis
approved. He pointed out the lessons of
the European war to show the ad-
vantages of prohibition.
The vote tabling the resolution and
excluding the plank from the platform
was announced the convention whooped
it's approval. Afterward Chairman
Robins followed d Suggestion that the
convention be given an opportunity to
express its sentiments on the question.
He asked all those who favored the
principle to rise and almost the entire
.throng stood and cheered.
Chairman Robins said the latter
action of the delegates was a splendid
testimonial" of belief in prohibition.
