With his usual keen intelligence
ard habit of goir- right to the heart
of things and putting his finger I'M
erringly on the right thing, President
Wilson is advocating the selective
draft plan Of raising the army need
ed right now. No doubt the Con-
gressmen! who oppose this plan on the
ground that it will not meet the ap-
proval of the people will find that the
people will rot oppose it. 1t is fair
end sensible, and the people may be
depended upon to approve anything
that has that virtue. Even if it were
certain that million men would vol
untcer at once, the seiective draft
plan would be infinitely preferable.

Senator Cough has been congratu-
lated on the fact that more laws we're
passed for Robson county during the
recent session CT the Legislature, as
shown by the digest of the laws com
piled by State Librarian Wilson, than
for any other county, and also for
personally educating more measures
of Statewide importance than any
other Senator. The first would not
necessarily be thing to be proud
of, but so far as we know all the laws
passed for Robson are good ones.

FERGUSON SAYS
 AUTO SHORTAGE
 SURE TO CONE

Delay in production is certain in practically all automobile plants throughout the country this year, due to several unusuai conditions, the most important of which is shortage of certain materials" said Billy Fer guson of the Oldsmobile company yesterday.
 The automobile buying public does not realize in slightest degree, the difficulties which will confront them when they decide to purchase and take delivery of an automobile in the spring. This year the automobile they select in the spring is unlikely to he ready for delivery at that time due 10 the most unusual and most threatening conditions that have con fTonted the automobile industry from the time of it's inception.
 Everyone, of course, is generally familiar with the fact that shortages of material are constantly arising. What they do not realize is that these shortages are serious enough to ham per greatly the efforts of all manu- lecturers. This, coupled with dis er2anized and consested railroad traflic and the lack of coal in some [ sections. will oblige automobile man factories tD slow down. if not for t ' period of indeterminate length, sus- pead operations entirely.
 Prospective automobile buyers who ! intend t3 order and obtain d motor i ear late in the season should be ac- quainted with the unfortunate cOndi- ' lions surrounding the automobile in dustry today, for their own benefit. F Nothing is to be gained by hiding the facts
 ! The Grant is operating under most f4"nfaDle conditions. possessing every < facility of obtaining material and { eyery aid to the rapid manufacture ' of motor cars but there are some conditions this yeal that are entirely | beyond the control of any manufact | e.el- of any group of manufacturers.
