Look for no car equaling this new
Hupmobile, even in externals, for
twelve months to come. It was the
worlds finest Four before. Now it is
the year-ahead beauty-car as well.
More than $75O,000 spent for factory
improvements in 1916 paved the way.
We needed larger production to spread
the cost of excess goodness. And new
factories to get the production. Now
we have them both. And you get the
beauty-car year ahead.

And so it is.
They said we could cheaper the rear
axle, use a clutch less costly, and so on.
But we refuse to take the obvious
course. Nearly million dollars spent

better to us than lowering Hupmobile

Declares That the Under-Sea War
 Weapon Is Defeated
GERMANY'S ONLY HOPE
Arthur Pollen Says That the Cam paign of tho U-BOatS Has Been a Failure, and That Germany Based All Hopes of Its Success.

New York, Nov. 15-Arthur Pollen, the famous British war expert has made the following statement to the Associated Press on the various po- Htical crises in Europe.
 Anything unsatisfactory in the military and political situation in Europe is balanced by news that the German submarine campaign has broken down altogether. The sub marine is defeated. This Is the most momentous event since the United States declared war. It means that we can all stay in and that America can really come in. Six months ago shipping was being destroyed, accord ing to some authorities at d rate of nine million tons per annum. Had this loss continued the Germans had the right to expect, not indeed military victory but a peace that would mean something much less than defeat. This was Germany's only hope, and it was the Allies only anxiety. For everyone, including the German high CT command, knew that with sea com munication reasonably safe the mill tary defeat of the German army was certain.
 Estimating the loss of British ship ping through attacks by submarines at a million tons yearly, based on re- cent reports, MT. Pollen said the pres ent shipbuilding capacity of Great Britain alone can make this loss in less than eight months, while at the rate America, Great Britain and Japan are striving to attain, the loss should be replaced in less than eight weeks. The rate of loss f1uctuated, he said, but should never cause serious uneasiness again.

 The state directors drew up plans for l great drive after the thrift and savings stamps are placed on sale De- cembcr to encourage purchase as Christmas gifts. The campaign will continue through the holidays and probably until the third Liberty loan is put out sometime after January.
