Der Of street accidents happening ev-

DIR. James MeHoul, captain In the
British army aud ophthalmologist for
a recruiting board, states In the British
Medical Journal that of six chauffeurs
examined by him recently all had de
fective eyes and four of them had had
accidents, at least one Of these having
resulted in death. He urges that all
persons applying for license to drive
cars be subjected to rigid optical ex-
animation and that this be repeated
about once Il year. The New York
Medical Journal says this idea Is well
worth taking up on this side Of the At
lantic.

Married to rreos In India.

Under the very shadow Of the tele-
graph pole we find the tree worshlpers
Of India. Many kinds Of trees are wor-
SHIPPED in India for many kinds Of rea-
sons. Some are supposed to be the
abode Of demons who must be pro-
pitiated. The sacred DO tree under
which Buddha received enlightenment
Is worshiped by pilgrims who come In
thousands.
In some small villages where there
are more women than men 1t often
happens that there are no men of
equal caste to the girl whose time has
come to marry. Since the tree repre-
sents deity which can assume any
rank or caste, the parents OF a mar
riageable daughter who has become a
burden to the family take her to the
village tree god and marry her to him.
She is bound to the tree and left either
to the mercy Of prowling wild beasts
or to be rescued by the first male Of a
lower caste who Is IN search of IA help
meet.--World Outlook.

. of War Prices
BY j.. X. lMeALRINE

1t is a long cry, you may say, from
raising rabbits to the high cost of liv-
lug, and still further to the answer to
the ever increasing prices of automo-
! biles, but here are a few figures about
brer rabbit which wilf,no doubt be OF
interest
& When you bought your new fall
liz" did you notice how much more it
cost than last year? Perhaps you are
getting SO accustomed to this increase
in the price of everything that the
added 50, cent or a dollar passed by un.
noticed. j.,
Do you remember how the great ma.
gician always pulled a rabbit from his
hat, much to the edification of the
! credulous youngster? Well, rabbits
are used to make your hat The bet.
ter grade Of felt hats are made mostly
from rabbit fur, and it requires the
skins of from 40 to SO rabbits to mako
one hat. Over 100000 felt hats fol
men are manufactured in the United
!; States during year.
! The ~1ising of rabbits is not car
! ried on to any extent in this country.
Most of the skins come from Austria
| liza. The increased cost of ocean
J freight, combined with the added ex.
pense of caring for and feeding 120,-
100000 rabbits a year accounts for the
| high price of felt hats. The raising of
rabbits and making. of hats has moth
| ing to do with the making of automo-
! biles. ~ .-.:.
| Many people, however, do not real
| ize that the proportionate advance in
price of every other commodity has
been much greater than the raise in
| price of automobiles. ~. y
On Oct. 8 the war revenue tax bill
was enacted into law in order to raise
several billion dollars of additional
revenue with which to carry on the
war, and our lawmakers have taxed
every activity to the limit. We must
bear this burden cheerfully and give
with the joy of knowing that every
dollar will help the cause of our SOL
diers and our allies, who must bear
the burden of self-sacrifice at the front
in this colossal struggle to stamp out
hellish militarism. Manufacturers are
being taxed, not only directly on the
volume of business which they do, but
large share of their profits are alb.
sorbed and they are indirectly taxed
through the increased cost of material
and labor.
These taxes, direct and indirect,
show -. conclusively that automobile
prices must go higher. You who are
just now considering the purchase Of
car should include this. thought in
Your deliberations. A short delay of
even few days may force you to pay
| substantial raise in price for the car
Of your choice. A quick decision to
buy at once will no doubt save the
| cost of several months supply of car
operating necessities. One thing is
certain. If you intend to buy an auto
mobile you will save money by max.
ing the purchase now.

AuTORIALS

zines as examples for the newspaper
to initiate.
Mr. Tisch admits that, during the
present year, which he calls "criti-
cal'' period for the automobile indus
try, the manufacturers have met the
crisis by largely increasing their use
of newspaper space. The result is
shown in the fact that many compa-

Those fears were not all idle ones.
When country goes to war only
those industries which serve an essen
tfal purpose, cater to vital need, may
expect period of prosperity. 1t be-
came the task of the automobile manu-
facturers and dealers to further edu-
cate the people as to the propriety and
the necessity of continuing to use the
automobiIe-to carry to the public
mind the fact that the auto must not
be classed with so-called luxuries Or as
a dispensable thing. + .>:~.- -:
Public thought had to be stabilized.
How was this accomplished? What
classes of publications in this country
influence public thought most quickly
and effectively? Not the magazines,
nor the periodicals which are bought
for other reasons than that of their
news value The automobile adver;
Users knew that they must use the
daily newspapers if they were to get
into direct contact with the people and
have any success in moulding current
opinion.
The experience of this year should
serve to remove many illusions about
advertising media held by some of the
automobile people. That illusion
which would classify the newspapers
as of less value than the magazines
has no place in the mind of man so
progressive as Mr.. Tfsch.

United States marines stood guard
today in the Union Iron Works
plant where construction of gov
eminent ships valued at millions
of dollars has been completely
stopped by the strike of shipbuild-

cities.
Two companies of marines were
hurried TO this city from Mare
Island during the night at the re-
quest of Captain Harry G. Leo
pold, U. S. N. in charge of naval
construction at the plant. Early
today Captain Leopold ordered
the closing of all saloons within
half a m lie of the big San Fran
cisco plant, fearing that lettering
men, inflamed by liquor, might
create trouble there.
1t was reported that additional
companies of marines might be
stationed at the Oakland and Ala

ing companies and that saloons
might be closed there also.

came evidences from many quar-
