JAPAN TO MAKE
LOANS TO ALLIES

Toxic, May 29.-The heavy move
ment Of gold from the United States
to Japan was explained today by Ka-
zue Shoda. minister of finance, as
being due principally to the fact that
the Indebtedness OF Great Britain and
France to Japan is being paid part
ly through America. Mr.. Shoda re-
veals the fact that Japan is now ne.
gotiating with Great Britain and
France, with the purpose OF making
war loans to them. while private
japanese concerns. including. the
specie and industrial banks, are
planning the purchase OF British and
French securities held in the United
States. These operations will reduce
the outflow OF American gold and re-
lieve the burden OF Japan's accumu-
lating supplies.

Professor Bakhemetieff is at the

repudiated the idea that his country
would make separate peace and ex-
pressed appreciation OF aid given the

ITALIAN ENJOYS
TO BIG WAR BUDGET
ARRANGE TOUR

Washington, May 29.-The Prince
Of Udine and other members or the
Italian war mission will leave Wash
ington June 4 on a trip through the
south and middle west, going first
to Atlanta. The commission Twill
visit Burlington. Ia, June and Chi
cago June Q.
The mission will travel on a spe-
cial train provided by the govern
ment and will be accompanied by
their naval. military and diplomatic
aides. The exact routes and times
of departure will be kept. secret for
reasons Of safety. but local copspit-
tees at places at which they will stop
will be given full details.
The Prince of Udine, with other
members Of the mission paid formal
visit today to Vice President Marshall
at the capital.
New light was shed today on the
mission visit when Deputy Multi, for
mer minister Of agriculture and in
dustry in the Italian cabinet. said
the purpose in coming to this coun-
try was much more political than
economic and that his hope was TO
acquaint Americans more fully with
Italy's ideals and purposes.
There is only one great question
today and that is whether German
militarism or allied democracy shall
survive" he said. IF Germany wins
this war. her oligarchy will destroy
the world. This does not mean the
crushing OF the German nation, but
rather such a military defeat as ia
discredit absolutely Germany's mill
tary caste.
Italy did not enter this war for
any particular interest. She could
easily have stayed out on the basis
OF her treaty with Germany. The
threat of world combination under
the menace of the mailed fist made
such a course impossible. This Is
Italy's last war of independence. II
gives her opportunity to rectify he,
boundaries and to win her lost pro
vinces.
Germany and Austria know they
are beaten. The last hope Is in tbs
submarine or in dissension amongst
the allies, She is using both to tn,
full limit. 1t is essential tor us al
to hold together in the common
cause"
p; Mr.. Nitti declared Italy's genera
economic situation splendid and tina
he expected her to emerge from tn,
war one of the strongest industrial
nations OF the world.

Hauling Cost Reduced
to &c Per Ton Per Mile

THE engineers for the Smith
Form "A Truck Company. builders of
the famous truck attachment which.
combined with any Ford Buick.
Maxwell or Overland chassis makes
a guaranteed one-ton truck. have set
4c per ton mile as the hauling cost
for this new form of delivery" says
Frederick L. Karlson, manager of
Camp Curtin garage.
Four cents per ton mile worked
out into figures of common knowl-
edge, is a startling economy. 1t
means that it costs four cents to
transport a weight of one ton one
mile. The average person weighs in
the vicinity of $50 pounds.
on railroads, the uniform charge
for carrying this person would be
slightly over 26 cents, while on or
dinary street car systems, with the
system in service in two or three
of the very largest cities. the fare
would be from ten to twenty cents.
depending upon the size of the city.
These interesting figures show that
the Smith Form Truck offers not
merchandise, but the lowest trans
portation cost of any kind in the
world.
Four cents for moving a ton one
mile is n monumental achievement
in transportation work.
It has been made possible only by
the untiring efforts of Smith Form
a-Truck engineers to develop the

Velie Makes Twenty
Miles to Gallon of Gas

In these days of low-grade gaso-
line the Velie Company has center
ed efforts toward the greatest econ
omy of car operation, which study
has been carried into every item of
makeup of the "Biltwel Six"
AS result, unusual mileage rec
ords have become quite common and
highly satisfactory everyday per-
formances by owners is the general
rule. +. II. Hallman. of Madison,
Wis. drove a new Velie home from
the Velie factory at Moline, ILL.,, n
few days ago, as one of many deliv-
cries The distance was two hun
dred and twenty miles and eleven
gallons of gasoline were required
Just twenty miles to tho gallon!
Five passengers were carried on
this trip. This simple performance
was considered ordinary by the
Velie Company, yet was extremely
good since the car was new and the
road quite difficult in places. The
result clearly reveals the economy
of the Nelie Six as this performance
is duplicated many times every day.

Emma Goldman and Her

maximum in efficiency and in econ
omY.
1t is Immediately apparent that
no efforts have been spared to OBJ
tain a result which@ should set a
standard which would be practically
impossible to duplicate.
The proof of the 4c per ton mile
operating cost is found in actual
records of service kept by thousands
of Smith Form -a-Truck users in va
rious lines of business all over the
country. This service does not re-
strict itself to hauling conditions
over good roads but includes every
type of condition and hauling every
type of load.
So certain are Smith Form-a-Trucl<
engineers of their four cents per ton
mile operating cost that thev are
setting this as n definite standard to
be used by salesmen and by Smith
Form-a-Truck dealers all over the
country and are advising all possible
users of the Smith Form-a-Truck
to accept this standard as a set fig
ure in determining the overhead
charges which must be placed
against delivery.

Half Of Boundary
Trip Now Complete

Practically half of the distance
around the boundary of the United
Sttaes has been completed by the
Saxon Four roadster. trail blazer
for the National Boundary Highway.
In a little more than three months
the car has gone from Washington
southward along the rim of the
country and west to the Pacific,
where 1t turned north again.
AT present the car is somewhere
between San Francisco and the Can
adian boundary line, and is taking
advantage of the season to make
splendid time over the coast road
ways. When the trip was started at
Inauguration time, 1t was estimated
that five months would see the COM
pletion of the journey and unless
sumner rains impede the progress
of the trail blazer, it will be able to
complete the trip on scheduled time.
The hardest part of the journey
has been completed. The spring
freshets were encountered in the
south and southwest where rad con-
ditions are bad and there were days
when the car made only a few miles.
Not once. however, has it faltered or
succumbed to the terrible strain.
The car has given perfect service
and it's gasoline consumption has set
a record for economy. the grand
average of the trip up to the pres
ent time being at the rate of IS
miles to the gallon.
Reports from the trail blazer indi-
cate an unusual interest along the
route in the projected National
Boundary Highway. The idea of a
motor path along the border as a
road for long distance motorists,
who have exhausted the possibilities
of the established transcontinental
routes, has appealed to a great
many. The points of historical in
terest and the variety of scenery
and climate along the way are diff
ferent from any other route and Of
fer the motorist a splendid touring
road.
