Which Do You Prefer;
A Quick Getaway
--Or a Sure Start?
motor car {? 1
YOU CAN HAVE ONE-but it is impossible
to have both in the same car.
OF COURSE most makers claim to have both
qualities in their motors---but proof is lacking.
EVER NOTICE how, on very cold night,
after the theatre or concert every Reostarts
on the touch of the starter-button, while
others start only after long minutes of grind
ing--or exhaust their batteries and have to
be hand-cranked or towed.
JUST WATCH THIS on cold night when
all makes of cars are engaged in an impromp-
tn starting contest.
REOS ALWAYS WIN in that test---mainly
because of the low compression REQ motors.
EXCESSIVE ACCELERATION is achieved
by the adoption of high compression. Excess
sive power and speed too--beyond the needs
or the desires of most owners
BUT LOW UPKEEP---economy in operation
and in maintenance over long period of
years---as found in Reos---is one of the results
Of adhearing to the low compression principle.
s55 POUNDS per square inch is the REQ rule
some engineers double that
LONG LIFE of bearings is another REQ quality
--due to- the use of ''over size'' bearings and
the lesser strains to which they are subjected
in the low-compression REQ motor.
DOES 1T NATTER whether you reach the
next street corner second or even three
seconds later.
OR DO YOU PREFER car that is certain to
stsrt--and save the time that way.
IT'S A FACT that in race from zero motor
to the next street crossing, REQ will win
every time.
AND IN THE LONG RUN there's simply no
comparison in the durability, the dependable
ity and the general upkeep of Reos and the
high-compression kind.
IN THAT REGARD--in those most desirable
of all qualities, Reos know no rivals-no peers

HUN DEvILTRY FEATURES
LAST DAYS OF FIGHTING
Attach Grenades to the Bodies of
Dead Comrades Left Behind in
the German Retreat

WITH THE BRITIsH-AMERIcA
ARMIES, November Is Correspond
ence Of the Associated Press).-Ger-
man deviltry seemed to know no
bounds in the last days Of the fight
ing on the British front, after the
Hindenburg line had been shattered.
They attached grenades to the bodies
Of dead Huns left behind in the Ger
man retreat. so that when the bodies
were lifted the grenades exploded
killing or wounding the bearers.
Near the town Of LIE Cateau, a num-
Der of Australian stretcher-bearers
were killed by these grenades in at
tempting to remove some German
American machine gun position
Thereafter no Australian would put
hand on dead German. In some
cases the bodies were dragged to
their burial places by means Of a long
rope, which allowed the stretcher-
bearers to keep out of range OF any
exploding hand grenades.
The Americans, on the other hand.
hit upon the plan of making the Ger
man prisoners bury their own dead
In one instance boche prisoner was
summarily shot because he refused
to remove the body of one of his dead
companions. An examination of the
body later led to the discovery that
it was mined. The German was
aware of this fact and refused to
touch 1t.
In one small town evacuated by the
Germans many of the beds were
found to be mined. An American
officer. tired and worn by long and
hard fighting. sought rest on lounge
in a room previously occupied by a
German officer. The lounge blew up
and he was instantly killed.
Another officer picked up a pair of
field glasses left by the Germans and
was adjusting the focus when the
glasses exploded in his hands and
blew away a part Of his face.
The Huns had become adept in the
nefarious business OF making Internal
machines. mines and time fuses, and
there was scarcely an area where the
electrical and engineering experts of
the allies did not find some new form
of their f1endish ingenuity.

TO MAINTAIN GOLD STANDARD
British Committee Urges Action
Soon After Peace Pact.

LONDON. November 10 Correspond
ence of the Associated Press) s)-Con-
ditions necessary to the maintenance
Of an effective gold standard should
be restored without delay after the
terms Of peace are signed, reports a
committee headed by Lord Cunlifre
which was appointed to consider cur
rency and foreign exchange problems
after the war. The committee said:
Unless the machinery which long
experience has shown to be the only
effective remedy for an adverse bal
ance Of trade and an undue Srowth Of
credit Is once more brought into play,
there will be grave danger of a. pro-
gressive credit expansion which wifi
result in a foreign drain Of gold men
acing the convertibility of our issue
and SO jeopardizing the international
trade position of the country"
To maintain the gold standard the
committee recommended cessation of
government borrowing as soon as
possible, establishment Of an adequate
sinking fund out Of the revenues and
the raising Of the Bank of England
discount rates.

controversy as to the location Of the
burial place Of Sir Walter Raleigh
in connection with the celebration Of
the Booth anniversary Of his birth.
Biographers Of Raleigh supposed
that. after his execution. the body
was buried in the chancel Of st. Mar

The Times, however. suggests that
his body was placed for a short time
only. and that Raleigh really was
buried at Beddington, in Surrey,

AUTO INDUSTRY NEEDS
TIME FOR TRANSITION
May Be Midsummer Before Conn
plete Change to Peace Con-
ditions Is Made.

The welcome news that the ban on
automobile production has been partially
lifted has been announced. but there
seems to be in some quarters mis-
apprehension Of the resulting effect on
the industry.
Many people. both among the dealers
and the consuming public. seem to be
entertaining rosy visions of factories
Immediately pouring forth huge quanti-
ties of passenger cars and of showrooms
bulging with tempting motor wares like
a Christmas stocking filed with gifts.
Unfortunately no such result can be
no magic wand over any factory. In
the first place. almost all the motor car
factories of any importance have been
devotfng their resourceS-in many in
stances 100 per cent-to war work.
That means the making of shells,
bombs, mine anchors, kitchen trailers.
artillery tractors and a thousand other
war devices. Such being the case. it is
impossible overnight to readjust these
factories to 100 per cent passenger car
business. 1t will take some time.
Another reason why it will take con-
siderable time before production is nor
mai Is because the European needs are
stfH very great In fact, the reconstruc-
ton period now starting will make
heavier industrial demands than ever,
because there are railroadn and bridges
to build and building operations Of all
kinds to be undertaken all over the con-
tinent.
Finally. it must be borne in mind that
1t took the United States year and
half to change from a peace to n war
basis. AS a matter of fact, we had not
reached complete war basis when the
armistfce was signed. It took England
at least two years to develop from her
peace-time materials a war machine
that approximated complete efficiency
The Reconsideration back to peace con-
ditions may not take SO long. but the
task is gigantic one, and if the motor
car industry reaches normal conditions
by midsummer it will be doing very
well indeed. In the meantime there are
likely to be several purchasers for every
available car.
