PRESS COMMENT
 ON GERMAN NOTE
(continued from Page one)

(of starvation bIockade) against the seventy, millions in Germany: $ Further to serve the cause of human ity, the government of the United States could do nothing better than to cooperate to bring this bloody war to an end, possible only by rigorous blockade of England.'
 Waterbury (conn.) Republican.
 '-The effect can only be the complete suppression of what little sympathy may remain in neutral nations with the cause of the kaiser. The freedom of the seas cannot be surrendered to the entente allies, or to Germany and certainly it will not, even if the United States and other neutral nations are forced to arm and fight for this prin- ciple."
 Tampa Tribune
 "Germany's latest move * ** may we'll lead to our severance of relations with Germany
 Mobile Register.
 "Germany practically invites the breaking off of relations. The invitation should regretfulIy, but at once be accepted"
 Memphis Commercial-A Appeal.
 The United States should make it's position definite That position should be a, demand for restoration of the old international rules covering naviga- ton during the war. *- If to main tain. our rights means war so let it be-"
 Cincinnati VoIksbiatt.
 'fThe note of the German govern ment is painful in view of the unpIeas- ant possibilities that may result from it. The only proper policy fro the president is to warn American citi- zens from allied vessels. This will save them from harm and relieve the United States from the reproach Of one-sided neutrality"
 Cincinnati Freie Presse.
 Germany has a ritht to wage an unrestricted under-sea warfare-the right of self-defense- Germany's duty toward the neutrals is fulfilled by warning them off ships of beIliger- ents, and her duty toward the United States in particular by adding direc- tions as to how American passenger steamers must proceed in order to reach their destination without dan ger'
 Louisville Courier Journal.
 Surely the president has been awakened from his dream of the mil lenium by Gernany's latest note. It is a direct challenge of war to the United States. It is a time for no further parleying. That challenge should be accepted within twenty-four hours and the war thus entered on by America should not end until the i'm

 Denver Post.
 Germany is rushing to her doom. There is no plan in the universe that permits a nation to succeed by such methods as these, and this final step of Germany, in defiance of the United States, permits President Wilson to have no other choice than the sever ance of diplomatic relations altogeth- er.''
 San Francisco Post.
 Looked at in a practical way-and it should be remembered that none of the bellfgerents has respected the provisions of international law-Ger- many is simply cutting loose from all restraints and proceeding on the prin- cipIe that all is fair in warfare and that is best which makes for victory

perial despotism of Germany which dares plunge the world into such a war is completely and morally crush ed"
 New York Herald.
 Doubtless the idea of the Berlin government is that it can bluff an American president into disgraceful surrender.
 The Berlin government may be mistaken"
 New York Tribune.
 We have submitted to outrage long enough. Peace with Germany would be purchased at too dear a price if it is to be purchased by compliance with the kaiser's latest insulting instruc- tions to us as to how we shall con- duct our commerce with the entente nations"
 Meriden, Conn, Morning Record "The expected has happened. Ger many has at last shown her hand and it reveals the reason for President Wilson's frantic efforts to stave off the inevitable. The serious import of the document cannot be under-esti- mated. If it does not mean war it signifies the day of miracles have not passed"
 New London, (conn.) Telegraph
 Germany elects to go to the death grapple with her enemies and throws down the gauntlet to the world to in terfere with any method which she cOnS1dSrS necessary IO dOOpI bO dCHIeNS victory.
 For the United States there is no lodging the question that the most perilous situation of the war has arisen and the question suggests it. self whether there may not have been more after all to Secretary Lan- sings verge of war speech than has hitherto been acknowledged"
 Hartford, (conn.) courant.
 Germany announces that she is go- ing to increase the ferocity of her ma rine warfare and warns us to look out. The allies declare that they want no peace without victory. That is the return, so far, from President Wilson's surprising intrusion into European affairs England has the great navy of the world and it is up to her to protect the ships that Germany threatens to destroy What Wilson will do about it remains with Wilson, subject, of course, to the advice of Colonel House of Texas"
 New York Sun. "The note closes for the present the chapter of altruistic endeavors and tentatives of barley into which Pres:- dent Wilson has written his idealisJic hopes. It creates an, entirely new sit -a uation, of the most practical sort so far as the United States is concerned and serious in the extereme in it's pos abilities of untoward incidents which may put to the test the steadfastness

 If is now freely predicted that the automobile will in a short time cause the abandonment of most of the short railroad branch lines.
 The decline in the business of such lines has been very great in the last few years, all ,traceable to the in- creased use of motor vehicles. As an instance, it is stated that the sale of railroad mileage books has been re- duced approximately 30 per cent in the last three years.

Many followers of automobile con- struction were somewhat disappoint- ed in the New York show this year because no real improvement in brak- ing equipment was shown in the great majority of cars While it is true that year after year other betterments have been incorporated, brakes have re- ceived little attention.
 The discussion centers mainly around the service brake and it is the belief of a good many engineers that the practice of putting service brakes on the rear wheels is Fundamentally wrong. The trouble is that 1t is irn- possible to equaIize bralxing effects. The pressure on the foot pedal Is equally distributed between the reAr wheels by complicated mechanisms and fine adjustments of Hnkages, but the user of the car has no control over the condition of the braldng surfaces. The brakes are in an exposed position near the ground and pick up sand, mud, oil, etc. A little sand on one and a bit of greasy mud or oil on the other spoi1s all the careful work done in equalizing the forces exerted. As soon as one wheel develops more drag on the road

That the term "pIeasure cars" is obsolete and likely to become injurious to the motor industry is the belief of J. N. Gum, president of a tire com pany.
 In discussing this subject Mir Gum pointed to the wide and erroneous use of the words pleasure car" even among automobile manufacturers and declared that a motor car is no longer vehicle that is bought or operated solely in the pursuit of pleasure Con tinuing, he said:
 In the early days of the industry the motor car was a novelty and it's use was confined to those seeking recrea- ton or some form of pleasure. But with our economic development the automobile has ceased to be a play thing. It fills a utilitarian purpose all most exclusively. It is used as a time saver for business, for shopping, in short, for easier and quicker trans- portation. And instead of being a lux ury it is in many cases an absolute necessity.
 A motor vehicle is either a passen- ger car or a commercial car, and 1t should be so styled. It is a far cry from pleasure to the real functions of a passenger car. And the association of the two, long since outlived, should not be perpetuated-
