John n. WHY'S will become the new

within its boundaries a large plant,
close to the Willys-Overland Com
panyfactory, for making all Curtiss
engines. The present Curtiss plant
at Hammondsport. n. Y. Is Inadequate
to meet present demands.
British experts have visited Tcle3o
and looked over the Overland factory.
which they claim 10 the best fitted
plant in the world for making air
plane engines.
Mr.. WHY'S in a statement says:
THE WHY'S Overland Co. has been
preparing for the manufacture OF
airplane engines for nearly a year.
II has had two engineers who tust
recently returned from England
studying the English method of man
ufacture. so we are familiar with the
latest English and French practice
in building engines.
1--WE have q surplus quantity Of
machinery necessary for engine
manufacture, so we are in good shape
to take care OF governmental re-
quirements in connection with the
curtiss company. There IL no ques-
ton about the necessity Of the air
plane in war, and It is generally
conceded by British officers, with
whom have talked, that airplanes
will be in general use after the war
because OF the large number OF avia-
tors trained for fighting."

ENGLAND LIMITS
AUTOMOBILE USE
AS WAR MEASURE

According to a class journal corre-
spondent, instead OF several brands Of
Easolene being sold throughout England.
the government has decided that only
one brand IL to be marketed. and II will
be labeled war spirit" Heretofore
some OF the different brands Of gasolene
have been Pratt spirit (American).
81 ell spirit (Borneo). and various other
bra nds The new war spirit represents
tie supply Of fuel which has been pooled
by the different EasoIene concerns for
distribution. Instead Of gasolene being
sold in green or red cans as formerly, II
il to be marketed in khaki-eolored tins
The use OF automobiles throughout
the British Isles IL gradually being re-
stricted. One OF the latest restrictions
is a prohibition on renting or hiring
Of automobiles. Since the start Of the
war a big business has been done In
hiring many private owners who have
found It necessary to lay up their vehi-
cles have hired cars from garages for
trips through the country.
Now no cars can be hired except under
a special license which is only issued
to a certain class Of people whose
work comes under specified headings.
The police have organized themselves
anu nldaC many AON NAOAAAAOho
Of this rule. At times as many as six
barriers Of this police nature are en-
countered in 100 miles.
The private motorist Is not complain
ing loudly over these restrictions. as he
knows they are not imposed until alb
solutely necessary. The police treat all
cases with the utmost consideration and
courtesy. which helps the situation very
much.
The tractor advocation has accom-
plished an amazing result. one which

Barney oldfieId, the death-defy-

ant for motor honors, tried out
his new submGrine-type racing car
at the Chicago races recently.
This car. which is designed prin.
oipally to protect the driver and

eident, did not win anything After
the forty-eighth mile the driver
none other than our hero-Barney
Oldfield, and his machanic were per-
feetly safe. The car did not run
any more.
oldfield, Il will be remembered,
was the driver whose cheap sports
manship kept Ralph De Palma from
entering his car at the Indianapolis
races early this year. When De
PAlma's entry arrived q few hours
after closing time. the officials of
the Indianapolis meet were unable
70 stretch a point and let this
splendid. clean-cut driver enter, be-
cause Oldfield howled In protest.
But he had to meet De Palma some
time:
"-Oldrield-says the Auto
mobile, in reviewing the contest,
managed to take the lead in the
sixth mile, and held II for another
lap, then dropped back to second.
and in the tenth mile De Palma pass
ed him in q thrilling neck-Gnd-nsck
brush in front OF the grandstand.
From then on Oldfield did not
figure much among the contestants.
Oldfield is q great driver-in
front OF the grandstand.

Mr. Inces plan contempates the making Of motion
pictures under government auspices in every city and
town of Importance. Parents, families friends and
sweethears in each CENTER according to the pan would
be notified to appear at certain time and motion pictures
probably simply panoramic view-wOud be taken of
them probably taking in alSo familiar buildings, streets
parks in each town Thus the reel of each center would
be to the soldiers from that place touch of home and
for most of them of vital interest for those who would
in motion, life like and in familiar setting mother
sweetheart children or others of the family Reels could
be shown at certain points at the front so Los Angeles
soldiers could go to see the Los Angeles reel and New York
soldiers the New York pictures.
Mr.. Ince estimated about forty persons could be
shown in foot of fm which finished ready for proec
ton would cost the government about ten cents If one
person. dear to one certain soldier could be shown him.
the cost for million would be btu $25OO for the film
Mr.. Ince advocated the plan as practical and eco
nomca and offered to supervise the matter and at his
own expense to assemble label and put in proper shape
