three assistant truck masters. one me-

and will have charge of an equipment
of 27 cargo trucks, preferably of the
one and one half and two-ton sizes,
one repair and kitchen truck, two oil

motor car and one light repair truck.
The personnel may be increased by
aiding assistant chauffeurs and cooks

Motor car and motorcycle com

similar lines, this form of organization
and the regulations governing it being
the same for volunteer companies as
for motor companies in the regular
army at present. Three motor com

other types may be enlisted. All types

NO TRAINS READY FOR TROOPS
Alleged Reason for Second Seizure of
Mexican Railway.

MEXICO CITY. April 2S.-The cause
of the taking over OF the Mexican rail
way between Mexico city and Vera
Cruz by the government recently for
second time was the failure of the
company to furnish troop trains
promptly, according to an official now
II member of the government oporat-
ing force. This delay made ii almost
impossible. it was said, for govern
ment troops to overtake the bandits
who have been operating along the
line of the railroad. 1t also Is re-
ported that telegraphers employed by
the company were suspected of being
in communication with the bandits.
The road was taken by the govern
ment more than two years ago under
plea of military necessity but was
returned to the stockholders about six
months before its second delivery to

Warning Soundedand Advice Given
About Tire Initiation by Expert

Now that real weather is return
ing and the cars are getting into ac-
tive service all over the country, il
seems timely to give car owners a
little reminder as to tire initiation"
says II. G.. Palmer OF the Goodyear
Tire Il Rubber Co, Akron, Ohio
"Underinflation Is always costly to
the tire user. differentiation is often
INDUCED in as a luxury. Like all
other luxuries 1t is usually expensive.
IF you have under-inflated your
tires because you have feared that
higher pressure might injure them.
this may injure you:
We have often inflated tires to a
pressure of several hundred pounds
per inch in our factory, for expert
mental purposes-'just to see what
would happen We have never yet
burst single tire that way. In

every instance either the rim or some
thing else has given way first Sc
recommended pressures are safe
pressures. 1t is also true that hot
weather effect on tires-the eNpan-
sion OF contained air by summer heat
is not at all dangerous. We hNe
made very careful tests, to determine
that point exactly.
Experience also teaches us that
the average initiation apparatus rarely
gives the tire the air pressure eN-
pected. There are number of rea-
sons for this, one being the air fric-
ton on the interior of the pipes.
Therefore we recommend that the
table of proper air pressures which
we have prepared be accepted as
minimum pressures, If the ear user
wants the mileage that is built into
his tires The air pressure table for
various sizes is given herewith"

LONDON, April 2S.-A successful
experiment with women in the pulpit
was made here the other day when
Miss Maude Royden, daughter OF Sir
Thomas Royden, Bart, preached the
regular Sunday sermon in the city
temple. SO large was the crowd that
came to hear the first woman to oc-
cupy that pulpit that police were re-
quired to regulate the throng. Several
other churches, deprived of their pas
tors by the war, are expected to follow
the example of the city temple.

MOTOR TRANSPORT
COMPANIES TAKEN
Government Accepts Offers of
Autoists and Cyclists for
Army Service.

NEW YORK. April 2S.-Offers Of
cooperation made by the automobile
Industry have been accepted by the
government The war department
recommends the immediate formation
OF as many voluntary motor truck,
motor car and motorcycle companies
as possible in all states and particu-
larly along the Atlantic, Gulf and
Pacific coasts, as a measure of pre-
paredness for any emergency that may
arise, alhto il is confident IL will not
have to call for cars or trucks of
citizen owners for regular army
service
The task OF directing this work has
been delegated to the volunteer motor
transport committee, consisting of
Alfred Reeves, national automobile
chamber of commerce, as chairman:
A. G. Batchelder, American Automo-
bile association; Coker r. Clarkson
Society of Automotive Engineers; Ed
ward ii. Broadwell, motor and acces-
sorry manufacturers; Roderick Ste
phens, Motor Truck club of America
and Shelby A. Falor. Federation of
American Motorcyclists This COM
mittee will operate under the advisory
commission OF the council of national
defense
The committee will cooperate also
in the recruiting of competent drivers
and mechanics for the enlisted reserve
corps OF the quartermaster's depart
ment of the army, under the direction
of Gen. III. S. Sharpe and Col Chaun-
cey B. Baker of the quartermaster' $
corps at Washington.
Its work will be to organize volun-
teer motor companies in all states.
and especially in cities near the sea
coast. The committee will also obtain
particulars of the roads for military
purposes, especially with regard to
their ability to carry heavy motor
traffic
Volunteer companies will include
the necessary officers, drivers and me-
chanics and will be used, when oc-
casion requires, for quickly moving
bodies of troops or supplies to par
ticular points. Such service probably
will extend over only day or two at
a time, but many OF the men may
later wish to enlist for military serv-
ice during the war Colonel Baker
says that cars or trucks of citizen
owners will not be required by the
army. as the quartermaster's office
will be able to buy new equipment as
fast as the new and bigger army is
