nine Persons.

Washington, D. c., July l2.--Iowa led
the United States in 1916 in the num-
Der of cars registered in proportion to
population. She had one car for every
ii persons. California was a close Sec
ond with one car for every II inhabi-
tants. Nebraska and South Dakota had
one for every Is. Arkansas could show
but one for every ll6. The average for
the United States is one car for every 90
persons, according to figures presented by
the office of public roads, United States
department of agriculture, in circular 70,
Automobile Registrations, Licenses and
Revenues in the United States, 1916"
The New England states were more
supplied with motor cars than
any other section. They average one
car to about every p persons. The pros
porous corn-belt states also showed
fairly uniform distribution of cars. The
south. which does not possess as great
of improved public roads as 9th
er sections of the country, had relative
" fewer cars in proportion to populs-

PUT PATRIOTISM
ABOVE PROFITS
WILSON PLEADS
Tells Business interests That Govern
ment Will Pay Just Prices and
Warns Against Extortion-
Shipping Men Scored.

Washington, d. c., July l2.-Presiden
Wilson appealed to the country's bust
ness interests last night to put asid,
every selfish consideration and to give
their aid to the nation as freely as thos,
who go out to offer their lives on the
battlefield.
In a statement addressed to the Goa
operators and manufacturers he gave as
suranees that just prices will be paid by
the government and the public during
the war, but warned that no attempt to
extort unusual profits will be tolerated
"Your patriotism" said the PRESIDENT
appeal, sis of the same self denying stuff
as the patriotism of the men dead and
manned on the fields of France, or it is
no patriotism at all. Let us never speak,
then, of profits and patriotism in the
same sentence.
Il shall expect every man who is not
a Stacker to be at my side throughout
this great enterprise. In it no man can
win honor who thinks of himself"
The president declared there must be
but one price for the government and
for the public. He expressed confidence
that business generally will be found
loyal to the last degree and that the
problem OF war time prices which he de-
clared will "mean victory or defeat" will
be solved rightly through patriotic CO.
operation.
In unmeasured terms, however, Mr..
Wilson condemned the ship owners of
the country for maintaining schedule
of ocean freight rates which has placed
almost insuperable obstacles" in the
path of the government.
''The fact is" he asserted, chat those
taken the most effective means in their
power to defeat the armies engaged
against Germany"
The presidents appeal follows in full:
"My fellow countrymen:
"The government is about to attempt
to determine the prices at which it will
ask you henceforth to furnish various
supplies which are necessary for the
prosecution of the war and various ma
terials which will be needed in the in
dustries by which the war must be sus-
tanned. We shall, of course, try to de- /!
termine them justly and to the best ad
vantage of the nation as whole; but |
justice is easier to speak of than to ar
rive at and there are some considera- |
tions which / hope we shall keep steadily |!
in mind while this particular problem of |
justice is being worked out. l, there
fore, take the liberty of stating very
candidly my own view of the situation
and of the principles which should guide
both the government and the mine own
ers and manufacturers of the country in
this difficult matter.
"A just price must, of course, be paid

MONTPELIER
Total of Infantile Paralysis Cases is In
creased to 81.

As the result OF the visit of DR.. Tay.
Tor, infantile paralysis expert for the
state board of health, two cases have
! been added to the total number which
/ have developed in Montpelier, making
the number 80. DIR. Taylor visited FIVE
suspected cases and three were diagnosed
as the disease. One, however, had been
quarantined for some time as the child
was believed to have the disease and so
the new cases number but two. Two
cases in eight days, however, is remark
ably encouraging considering that thirty
developed within fifteen days Or so, and
there is reason to believe that the out
break is under control. DIR. Taylor stated
that he would be unable to ascertain for
a week if the spread of the disease had
been checked. Moving picture places,
etc, will not be allowed TO open for thir-
ty days after the last case is reported.

TALK OF THE TOWN

A liberal discount on all hats and sale
on soiled linens for the remainder of the
week Mrs Foster.
Leslie Hutchins of Spaulding street
left this morning for Fayston, where ne
will visit with relatives for two weeks.
Miss Ethel Strickland of Keith avenue
was taken to the City hospital this
morning, where she underwent an opera
ton.
To-day dawned unpropitiously for the
haymakers hired by the Barre Granite
Manufacturers association, but nearly
a dozen sturdy laborers reported at the
association headquarters before $3.50
o'clock this morning and were ready to
serve. That the manufacturers are TAX
EN- seriously in their creditable endesvor
to furnish some of the 5000 men solicit
ed by State Commissioner f. S. Brigham
is evidenced by the fact that during the
forenoon a number of applications for
work in the bayfield, were received. The
names of the applicants were recorded
and when sunny weather returns they
will be added to the roster of workers
whose services in the hay field are avail
able through the good offices of the as

is acting with the manufacturers and

age, very small percentage of the hay
crop in Washington has been harvested
and the opportunities for service are nu-
merous.

state of efficiency, provide a living fol
those who conduct them, enable them tS
pay good wages and make possible the
expansions of their enterprises which
will from time to time become necessary
as the stupendous undertakings of this
great war develop. We could not wise
ly or reasonably do less than pay such
prices. They are necessary for the main
tenance and development of industry,
and the maintenance and development of
| industry are necessary for the great task
we have in hand.
"But | trust that we shall not sur
| round the matter with mist of senti-
ment. Facts are our masters now. We
ought not to put the acceptance of such
prices on the ground of patriotism. Pa
triotism has nothing to do with profits
in case like this. Patriotism and prof
its ought never in the present circum-
stances be mentioned together. 1t is per-
fectly proper to discuss profits as mat.
ter of business, with view to main
tanning the integrity of capital and the
efficiency of labor in these tragical
months when the liberty of free men
everywhere and of industry itself trem-
bles in the balance, but it would be abb
surd to discuss them as a motive for
helping to serve and save our country.
Patriotism leaves profits out of the
question. In these days of our supreme
trial, when we are sending hundreds of
thousands of our young men across the
seas to serve great cause, no true man
who stays behind to work for them and
sustain them by his labor will ask him
self what he is personally going to make
out of that labor. No true patriot will
permit himself to take toll of their hero
ism in money or seek to grow rich by
the shedding of their blood. He will give
as freely and with as unstinted self
sacrifice as they. When they are giving
their lives will he not give at least his
money! | hear it insisted that more
thdH a JUST piiSes moIc tHdH price JudU

that it is necessary to pay very liberal |
and unusual profits in order to stimulate |
that nothing but pecuniary |
rewards will do-rewards paid in money, |
not in the mere liberation of the world
take it for granted that those who |
argue thus do not stop to think what
that means. Do they mean that you
must be paid, must be bribed, to make
your contributions contribution that

'ers of the sea, or with the bereaved
women and pitiful children, before YOU
