GREEK KING PLAYED
A DOUBLE GAME
Proof of His Duplicity Has Been

London, Aug. 20.-An Athens dis
patch to the Exchange Telegraph
says that among documents found
there since the change in government
is one in which former King Con-
stantine, few days after the war
began, answered the German emperor
who suggested that Greece join the
Central Powers. Constantine said the
emperor knew he was attracted to-
wards the Germans but failed to see
how mobilization of the Greek army
could help the Central Powers. He
finally stated that neutrality is Sim
posed on u.s."

SAVE THE CEREAL
Herbert Hoover Asks Ali the People
to Help

Washington, Aug. 19.-Declaring
the United States and the Allies face
a wheat deficit of four hundred mill
ion bushels unless new economies
are introduced, Herbert Hoover has
appealed to all people to eliminate
waste and asking that they conserve
wheat by the use of other cereals. He
says that saving a pound of flour a
week by every person will go far to-
ward solving the question.
The Allies, said Mr.. Hoover, are
completely isolated from markets
other than Canada and the United
States. The Russian supply cannot
be obtained and Australia and India
are too distant.

1000 Maxwell Cars
To Make Fuel Test

This month a countrywide test will
be run by 1000 Maxwell dealers to es-
tablish gasolene economy standards.
A total of $4,000 in cash prizes is Of
fered and trophy cup will go to the
dealer making the highest mileage.
Although dealers will compete, own
ers' cars only are to be used. Each
contestant will enter two cars in actual
owner service, in each of which are to
be four full grown passengers-th
driver and three observers. The cars
will make the run together, thus CIV
ing a double check.
One gallon gasolene cans, attached
TO the windshield, will be furnished by
tho factory. The cars will be run until
the fuel is out. Every stop must be
certified TO by the observers, or the
record made will not count.
II the Maxwell people run the econ
omy test as owners do their driving
that is, straight along at moderate
speed until the gasolene is used up-it
will be a significant and valuable test.
Ordinarily in such tests hours and
hours are taken nursing the car along
as no driver ever would do in ordinary
touring. A time limit set would help
u make the Maxwell test worth while,
not just stunt"
Cautiously working up every grade
and coasting down each decline gives
marvellous economy results, but they
arc not such as an owner has a right
b expect in his regular tourings. Max
we'll cars have done "A and 46.5 miles
to a gallon in fuel tests, but the COM
pany would not advertise that as GUS
tomary owner mileage. nor would a
buyer be justified in looking for such.

Wins Suits on
Delayed Delivery

An interesting case has just been
decided in Boston, where a used car
buyer has collected damages from an
automobile dealer for failure to de-
liver the car at the specified time. The
dealer took an order for new car
from a customer making a deal for
the buyers old car. He agreed to let
the man run his old car until the new
one arrived.
He figured out likely date of ar
rival of the new car. and on that basis
took an order for the used car TO be
delivered TO its buyer as of that date.
When the new machine failed to ar
rive. the owner declined to give up the
old car. The dealer tried to put off
the buyer Of the used car. Eventually
he gave the deposit back.
Then the used car buyer started
suit, saying he had offered the bal
ance due on the used machine and ask
ing damages for non-fulflment of the
contract. A jury awarded the customer
two-thirds of the price agreed on.
Boston dealers arc now looking their
contracts over to make sure they'll be
protected in like case. Here in New
York non delivery is covered on new
cars, but it is a question if all used
car deals are made on the same basis.

Verdict Against
Car Maker for
Wheel Breaking
Widow Gets $4,000 Judg-
ment Against Hudson
Motor Car Co.

Although in other courts it had been
held that an automobile manufacturer
was not liable for damages caused by
the breaking Of road wheels not of his
manufacture. and that exercise of rea-
sonable care in manufacture absolved
both wheel maker and car maker from
responsibility, a case has just been
decided in the Supreme Court in Min
cola, L. l., holding the motor car
builder responsible for damages caused
by breaking of wheels.
A verdict for $4,000 was given
against the Hudson Motor Car Com
pany in favor of Mrs. Elizabeth Gear
lish, of Glen Cove, L. l., for the death
of her husband on July 20, 1916, in an
accident due TO the collapse Of a wheel
on the Hudson car he was driving.
1t was admitted in the course of the
trial that the wheel in question had
been made from dead wood that had
rotted to an unsafe condition. Instead
of splintering. as does sound wood
when it breaks, the spokes sheared off
evenly. Three wood experts testified
as to the poor quality of the wood
II was contended by the Hudson
company that the car maker had 10
place his reliance upon the manufact-
urer of wheels and that there was no
way of testing the wheels received
without destroying them.
An effort was made TO show that the
driver was going too fast at the time
OF the accident. He was doing forty
miles an hour on straight road, a
speed which, although high for road
driving, is Ear below the indicated
capabilities of the car.
