TELEPHONE S|TUA-
TON IS EXPLAINED
j. A. Halliday OF Pacific Telephone &
Telegraph Company Clears Up
Some False Impressions
Company Will Make
improvements.

There has been some misunder-
standing regarding the telephone sit
uation in Heppner which we are able
to explain in this issue through
recent interview obtained from ]. A.
Halliday, representative of the
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Co.
1t has been widely rumored and
supposed by many that T. ]. Hum
phreys had been relieved of the po-
sttion Of manager. According to Mr..
Halliday this is not correct, as Mr..
Humphreys will remain as manager
as long as the telephone Office re-
mains in his store. ANY rumors
about him being removed" said Mr..
Halliday, "are due to a misunder-
standing" Mr.. Halliday was accom-
panied to this city by two other rep
resentatives of the phone company,
J. R. Davies and W. d. Scott, also
superintendents.
Mr.. Halliday said that for some
time the company had contemplated
placing the Heppner district on the
same basis as other districts in which
the company operates. This would
have required manager to be ldcat-
ed in Heppner and he would have
supervision over Morrow county and
probably some adjoining territory.
This would have resulted in the Of
fee being located in quarters separ-
ated from any other business insti-
tuition, and where more space would
have been available. The company's
engineer visited Heppner about the
middle of January to see what addi-
tional apparatus would be required.
He returned to Portland and placed
an order for a switch board that
would permit two operators to work
at the same time so that during busy
periods calls could be handled
promptly. Mr.. Halliday and Mr..
Davies expected to come to Heppner
about March 1st to see MIR. Hum
phreys about the proposed change, as
Mr.. Humphreys had previously ad-
vised the Telephone company that he
was ready to relinquish the ONCE
whenever the company was ready.
Before March 1st arrived the COM
plant was filed. ThisShas resulted in
considerable embarrassment to Mr..
Humphreys and his operators and al
so to the telephone company, as it
has placed them all in an undesirable
position.
It is unfortunate that such con-
troversy should be injected into the
affairs of the community and par
ticularly so in view Of the facts that
we have learned. Mr.. Halliday said,
"the company's dealings with Mr..
Humphreys have always been very
satisfactory. No other agent in my
territory has better standing in the
estimation of the telephone company,
and 1t has been our intention to have
Mr.. Humphreys remain as our mana
ger as long as the Office is in his
store" As soon as a new location
has been obtained for the Office. the
fact will be announced in this paper.
When the intention Of the company
became known, the complaint filed
with the Public Service Commission
was withdrawn.
In conclusion, Mr.. Halliday said,
"our many subscribers will undoubt-
edly be glad to learn the facts In the
case as the complaint has caused
considerable comment"

Patriotism is being shown from one end of the great South Bend Studebak- CT factories to the other This is the word received by the Harmon Motor company, local agents for the Stude- baker automobile.
 Each room is being elabOrately dec orated by the wOrkmen with Ameri- can flags and keen rivalry is existing among the men to see who can pre- pare the most artistic display Already over 250 flags are to be found in the factory, with each individual promi- nently displaying the colors on his coat lapel. The houses of hundreds of em- ployes are flying the Stars and Stripes in some conspicuous spot.
 Stakeholder employees have, in fact, exhausted the supply of American flags offered for sale by South Bend merchants. Until shopkeepers receive new shipments, not another "Old Glory will be available in "Stude- baker Town
 But Studebaker employees do not content themselves with the mere way ing and display of the national colors Their love of country, and loyalty to the flag is more deep-rooted than that As evidence of this fact it is only nec- essary to say that over 1000 workmen responded to the American Red Cross appeal within twenty -four hours after the notice was posted.

 Tn Canada in spite of the handicap of the war Willys- Overland dealers have since January 1st booked more retail orders than the total Overland sales in Canada for any previous twelve months. The demand in the Dominion for Willys- Overland cars is far in excess of the supply.
 Prior to the war in Canada money was very tight The percapita wealth across the border was only S55. At the present time Canada is in better shape financially than ever before; it's percapita wealth is now said to be $92
 The United States today has more money than ever in it's history. A re- cent statement published by United States Comptroller Williams showed that United States banks had assets of sixteen billion dollars, exceeding by two hundred and ten million dollars the previous high water mark of five months ago, and an increase of five billion dollars in four years. The to- tai national wealth, according to au- thoritative estimates. is given out as 50,000, 900 900, with a national debt of only sS.000,000,00 The estimated combined wealth of Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy and Germany is s275, ,000, ,000,00 while their total na- tional debt is s6O,000 O00,OO0.
 There seems to be no cause for pessimsm. We can safely look for ward to a continuance of good business right here in our own country.

AUTO RACING |S
 STILL FAvOR|TE
 PAST|M IN J. S.

That automobile racing retains it's
 hold on the great American public despite the rigid economies reccm- Inended by the authorities during the War period and the many difficulties
 encountered in promoting a wartime race, was conolusively proven at the
 opening of the 1917 racing season, on
 the Is mile track at Uniontown, Pa.
 May TO- Fully 5000 persons were in
 the stands and on the field to greet
 the first racers to appear on the
 track. If the Uniontown attendance
 nav be taken as a criterion, the com
 plete success, from an attendance
 standpoint, is augured for the seasons
 races that are to follow.
 Before the enormous crowd that ringed the track and nearly filled the oval infield, Billy Taylor, driving a StutZ Newman. captured the 1121&. mile universal trophy race. Taylor was in the running every moment and won in 1:15:3S, an average of S9A miles per hour.
 Storming along behind Taylor at the finish were Joe Boyer Eddie Hearne, Louis Chevrolet and Dave Lewis, who , crossed the electric time recording line in the order named
 l In such terrific speed contests inter l est is centered largely in the perform ance of the tires. A small fortune in prize money may hang upon the whim ;! of a treaeherous tire. So all racing
 men use the greatest care in selecting l the tires rpoD which their fortunes and their lives are at stake l The Uniontown race was a great oc-
 casion for Goodyear cord tires, for the
 first five winners drove on Goodyears The successful drives of three of them-Taylor, Boyer and Hearne-
 were marked by nonstop runs form. erly a most unusual performance, but | ilatterly-thanks to the many elements l that have entered into tire better

When the government cuts down railroad passenger service to meet the nations military needs this will in the opinion of A. W. Newton, director of sales of the Babbitt- Poison company, local Maxwell dealers, give a tremen- dous impetus to the use of automobiles for travelling purposes.
 This is not merely\a theory I have evolved" said MT Newton in his office here the other day. Plans to this end are already tentatively under way in the big centers.
 T have been advised by business men in New York, for instance, that they expect to be thrown back on the motor car as almost the only method of making short trips The automo- bile, they believe, will soon be an ab- solute necessity for one who has to do much travelling.
 With a million or two men under arms in this country-being moved ire quently from one camp to another or to the seaboard for transportation to Europe-the government will have to commander a large part of the rail- road passenger facilities. How far this will effect the general public it is im- possible to predict, but railroad trav- cling facilities are going to be greatly reduced.
 The automobile offers the only sub stitute and l look for it's extensive use by men and women who have to go from one city to another and cannot get railroad accommodations.
 If this situation had arisen a few years ago the automobile might not have been equal to the emergency. But great strides have been made in motor efficiency and no fear of the automobile falling down on the job need be enter tained now.
 Just to illustrate motor car de- pendability today, I cite that Maxwell stock car which travelled 22,022 miles at the rate of 25 miles an hour, with out once stopping the engine.
 Only few of the fastest trains equal that running time. and railroad trains have to change engines every few hours Locomotives can't go 2,200 miles. let alone 22,0O0, without stop ping.
 T might cite, too, Mrs. Miriam Thayer Seeley. professor in the Ore gon Agricultural college who drove her Maxwell across the continent and back-9,700 miles-at an average cost of 11s cents a mile for gasoline, oil and repairs"
 That was 25 per cent less than the lowest railroad fares, cents a mile, which does not include Pullman charges and extras.

for the trophy race. This Griver ran out of gasoline on his last lap but man. aged to coast over the finish line with 2S seconds to spare.
 The dealers race, like the big event, was marked by the complete success of Goodyear Cord tires, the first four win ming cars having worn them But four cars entered the race so equipped, all finishing with nonstop runs.
 An added feature to the days excite ment was staged in a spectacular air plane flight by DeLloyd Thompson. one

watching the others movements close ly, until Chevrolet was forced to pull into the pits to rectify slight motor trouble. This cost him several laps which he set out to make up, un- daunted, driving wonderful race. He regained much of the distance but could not overtake the leaders
 Hardly less interesting than the big event was the 112R mile race for dealers won by l. P. Fetterman of Pittsburg in Peerless car in 1:21 :3i, but six minutes slower than the time

whether in the field in the fighting ships, in the workshops or on the farm. He calls on every woman, too some to take the places of men re- leased for sterner service. others to prepare to help to nurse the sick and wounded-still others to give hope and inspiration while they serve at home
 With a full realiza ton of the debt every American owes his country whether it be the land of his birth or adoptiOn-these thousands of loyal men and women quickly gave their dollars and their faith and their enthusiasm to help along the good work of our great Red Cross Society.
 So overwhelmingly successful was the response of Studebaker employees to the Red Cross appeal that officials in charge of this work found it utterly impossible to supply enough identifi- cation buttons to go around. Such en- thusiasm was really wholly unlocked for by the Red Cross officials-but it was typical of the spirit prevailing throughout the entire Studebaker or ganiZatiOn

The motor car, therefore, is faster and cheaper than the train as a pas senger conveyance. And not only. in my opinion, will many of the cars now in use be put in this service, but also conditions will greatly stimulate auto mobile sales.
 The automobile has become. al ready, a necessity in our American life. War, it appears, is to make it even more so.''

By John N. WiIlys.

Automobile manufacturers through out the country are being deluged by letters, telegrams and verbally with queries as to what effect Americas declaration of a state of war existing with Germany will have on business generally and particularly on the au- tomobile industry.
 It seems to me that the unprecedent- ed era of prosperity of the past two years must be continued
 In addition to the enormous business now being handled by this country, the United States government has just passed a war budget of seven billion dollars. Three billion dollars of this fund will be advanced as loan to the Allies-who will spend it in the United States.
 The remaining four billion dollars will be used to put our own army and navy on sound war footing.
 Every cent of this money will be spent in this country. Every product that is raised or made in this country will be purchased in large quantities than ever. Every section of the coun- try will benefit-every class of people.
 Some of the money will go south to buy cotton. A big share will go to the western states and to the coast for grain, meat and other foodstuffs. Some of it will go to Pennsylvania for steel and coal New England will get

of Americas foremost aviators. Thompson, after attaining a height of $500 feet, sent a thriller through the crowd by completing a succession of four loops, then volplaning to earth.
