War Conditions Makes :.
Tire Economy Essential

A threatened scarcity of tires dur
ing the present season, upon which
the war will have some bearing, will
at least have the effect of making
the motorist heed the advice of the
large tire manufacturers in the
proper care of their tires.
1--WE have never advised, from a
selfish point of view, that motorists
give their tires every care and atten-
tion," said w. f. Mower, local man.
ager of the b. f. Goodrich Rubber
Company. "All of the vast amount
of literature which we have issued
on this subject has been done with
the idea of educating automobile
owners in the proper care of their
tires so that they might get the very
maximum of service from them. This
applies TO all other tires as well as
Goodrich. The seriousness of this
advice will be brought home to
thousands of motorists during the
present year, for the approximate
waste of $50 per car owner during
the 1916 season has been conserva-
lively estimated at $3.50, 100000 for

car owner. The tire manufacturers
see hundreds of living examples of
this negligence every day. A remedy
must soon be effected for this extra
VACANT waste cannot continue. It
has been almost impossible for the
tire manufacturers to keep pace
with the production of new cars and
at the same time meet the demands
of the cars already in use. An actual
shortage'in certain sizes exists at this

KAISER THINKS
US. CAN'T FIGHT
Germans Believe Americans
Are Tango Lizards, Says
Ambassador Gerard
BY Associated Press

Philadelphia, May 26.-"If Russia
stacks arms and German submarines
continue to litter the ocean with
corpses of the merchant marines
Uncle Sam will have to bear the
brunt of the great battle practically
alone, declared James w. Gerard,
former ambassador to Germany, who
was the principal speaker here last
night at a meeting under the aus
pices of the Southeastern Pennsyl-
vania Chapter of the Red Cross. Mr.
Gerard said he.had witnessed nearly
all the atrocities which have been
charged against the Germans.
while we need many things in
this war we need the Red Cross more
than anything else" he said. THE
spread of disease is terrible. France
is staggering under the joint blows
of tuberculosis and Germany.
The Germans think that the AM
ericans are tango lizards and male
manicures. You're a lot of fat peo-
pie who are all for money, German
officers told me before left Ger
many. You might lend the allies a
lot of money but you couldn't do
anything else. You have no men.
Your people would not go to war.
You could not make them fight. This
is the impression throughout Ger

War Traffic Will Be
Solved by Motor Cars

When the government cuts down
railroad passenger service to meet
the nations military needs this will.
in the opinion of T. j. Toner, Direc-
tor of Sales of the Maxwell Motor
Company, give a tremendous i'm
petus to the use of automobiles for
travelling purposes.
This is not merely theory l
have evolved" said Mr.. Toner in his
office at Detroit the other day. "Plans
to this end are already tentatively
under way in the big ccnters.
L have been advised by business
men in New York, for instance, that
they expect to be thrown back on
the motor car as almost the only
method of making short trips. The
automobile. they believe, will soon
be an absolute necessity for one who
has to do much travelling.
With a million or two men under
arms In this country-being moved
| frequently from one camp to an
other or to the seaboard for trans
portation to Europe - the Govern
ment will have to commander a
large part of the railroad passenger
facilities. How far this will effect
the general public it is impossible
" ia ASdiSlt bul TaltTOdu ITaNellng
facilities are going to be greatly re-
duced.
The automobile offers the only
substitute and 1 look for its extern
slVe use by men and women who
nave to go from one city to another
and cannot get railroad accommoda-
tionS.
IF this situation had arisen a few
years ago the automobile might not
have been equal to the emergency.
But great strides have been made in
the automobile falling down on the
JOB need be entertained now.
Just to illustrate motor car de-
pendability to-day 1 cite that Max
well stock car which travelled 22,O22
miles at the rate of 20 miles an hour,
without once stopping the engine.
only a few of the fastest trains
equal that running time, and railroad
trains have to change engines every
few hours. Locomotives can't go
2,2OO miles-let along $4,000 without
stopping.
Il might cite, too, Mrs. Miriam
Thayer Seeley. Professor in the
oregon Agriculture College, who
drove her Maxwell across the con-
tinent and back-9,7O0 miles-at an
average cost of IL cents a mile for
gasoline, oil and repairs.
That was 20 per cent. less than
the lowest railroad fares-2 cents a
mile, which does not include Pull
man charges and extras.
The motor car therefore is faster
and cheaper than the train as a
passenger conveyance. And not only
in my opinion. will many of the cars
now in use be put in this service, but
also conditions will greatly stimulate
automobile sales.
The automobile has become, al
ready, necessity in our American
life. War, it appears is to make it
even more So"

SPIES INFORM
BERLIN OF U.S..
NAVAL SECRETS
Kaiser Knew of Destroyers
Crossing Sea Four Days
in Advance
BY Associated Press

Washington, May 26. - Four days
before the American destroyer fiotilla
arrived abroad Berlin knew it was
). on the way and to what port it was
going, and the day before the vessels
steamed into Queenstown German
submarines had strewn mines about
the harbor entrance.
This startling information, reveal
ing that German spies not only still
are at their work in this country
but that they have a swift and sure
means of communicating Americas s
war secrets to the fatherland, came
to the Navy Department yesterday in
a cablegram from Rear Admiral
Sims at London.
The admiral said his information
was positive. His dispatch was not
made public, and for obvious reasons
nothing will be given out concern
ing how the news came into his
possession nor about the precautions
which defeated the German plans
and enabled the flotilla to speed
safely through the mine fields.
Hunt Spies
The result will be to redouble the
vigilance both of the censors and of
every agency of the government en-
gagged in roofing out the spy system.
Every German known to have been
connected with the espionage work
of his government already is under
arrest or under surveillance. Other
arrests may follow at any time, and
now that the country is at war and
the revelation of its secrets may
mean death to it's sailors and SOL
diers. swift punishment undoubtedly
will be dealt out to any convicted
spy.
In announcing Admiral Sims dis
patch the Navy Department, through
the committee on public information
said:
The department calls attention to
this fact as proof that the German
spy system is still at work in this
country. making imperative the
need of secrecy in connection with
our naval operations. The premature
publication of ship movements is
particularly a source of danger"

A lease has been signed between the
officers of the fair and of the War
Department whereby the Govern

the United States Ambulance Corps.
Men enlisted as members of the
corps will receive their intensive
training there prior to being sent to
France.
The buildings on the grounds are
handy for dormitories, the big grand
stand will make an admirable mess

the thing desired to teach men how
to run the motor ambulance. There
will be accommodation for 800
men, and 1000 motor ambulances
are to be brought here.

this shortage, but it must come, and
when it does. it is then that motor
car owners will be more impressed
with the idea of giving their tires the
care they should have and thereby
add much to the service they will
give. The average manufacturer is
looking for all the business he can
get, but the problem of meeting the
present demands rather than antici-
pating large increases is the one that
all rubber companies are facing to-
daN."
