Moline Commissioners and Street
Car Officials Declare Hearing
i Not Postponed.

Moline city commissioners and
officials OF the Tri-City Railway
company declared today that the
suspension OF the hearing of the
increased street car fare does not
mean that the meeting set for Sept

This action taken by the commits
sion does not lessen the determine
ton of the city officials to vlEoT-
ousIy fight the increase City At

campaign TO show that the street
car company is unjust in asking The
increase when it previously stated
that its earnings for the year have

the hearing. H. $. Ransom. presi-
dent Of the club, stated that the
question probably will be taken up
at their next meeting.
The action taken by the utilities
commission in regard to The extern
sion OF the Fourth avenue car line
on Twcnty-ffth street, Moline, has
pleased the city commissioners. 1t

Preparing to Aid
Employees in the
1918 Draft Glass

Elaborate preparations are being
made by the Root & VanDervoort
Engineering company and the Root
& Wagner Ordnance
company to assist employees regis
tered under the new draft law in
preparing their missionaries and
other papers relating to their status
in the draft. Advisory boards will
be on duty in the different shops
and arrangements have been made
so that it will not be necessary for
any cmplOye TO lose time from his
employment in order to obtain as
sistance with his QUESTIONABLE.
In this connection a new depart
ment has been organized in the joint
plants for the exclusive purpose Of
serving the employees in matters re
lating to the selective service act.
The last registration caught more
than so per cent Of the male ell
ployes who had not heretofore been
registered. Questions constantly
arise on which the registTant needs
and seeks advice. In order to give
adequate service so that men VIII
not be compelled to lose time it is
decided to establish the new draft
advisory department in connection
with the employment Office.

FIXING UP ROADS
 |S VITAL ID ALL

Tt cannot be too strongly urged up- on every city. town. hamlet and cross roads corner to not put off getting their roads in proper shape before winter says G. H. Reuben of the Kissel Auto Go.
 Tt must be remembered that main taining schedules when hauling pro- ducts. goods. supplies and materials as well as the enormous crops now natur- ing, depends on the condition of the nations highways.
 Tn this connection. I wish to sus gest that local booster organizations, commercial clubs, Chamber of Com merce and other industrial organiza- tions cannot perform a more patriotic .service than that of perfecting the highways in each community's vicin- ity. We are going to depend on the motor truck during the next six months more than ever before. and by provid ing roads that are navigable. 1t will not only enable trucks to maintain schedules through the winter months but will in addition enable them to give uninterrupted service at an up- keep expense that is in proportion to the services they render. The poor road means high operating expense. as well as loss of time. Therefore it be- hooves every community to act now and every business man and property owner should bend every effort to an- ticipte transportation delays during the coming months and act accord ingly."

STRANGE TIRES ARE
 USED BY ARMY MEN

Accounts of what our motors are do-
 ing in France are beginning to come in. For instance. c. T. Hutchins, a
 Goodyear salesman, speaks interesting ly of what is being done there. As driver for staff officer he be- came familiar with the entire battle front and obtained the broad outlook of the allied situations. During his six months service he was attached to the transportation departments of the French. English. Belgian. Portuguese and American forces and wore the uni forms of all of them. His story fol- lows, in part
 When I volunteered I anticipated the pleasure of driving the wonderful makes of foreign cars of which I had heard so much But I was soon dis appointed. Foreign manufacturers
 have turned out practically no cars for public use during the last four years,
 their output being exclusively for their governments. So little advance has been made in design. But their power plants are fine-we have no better motors.
 Where American cars excel Is in the refinements and conveniences. such
 as the self-starter. electric light, easily
 handled top. demountable rim. etc.
 Most of the tires l saw were of the
 smooth or steel studded type and even l in the large sizes were clinchers. And

CHEVROLET BEATS
 TRAIN COST OVER
 HALF ON LONG RUN

The absolute dependability of the au- tomobile as transcOntinental means Of moving both persons and goods has been demonstrated time and time again. but probably never better than in the case of Jimmy Appleby, we'll known to racing enthusiasts the coun- try over for his former connection with the speed game. Appleby has just reached the coast after cross country drive from Cincinnati, and has written to Bert o. Brown. the local Chevrolet agent. regarding his experience. According to the log of the Appleby land cruise. which was shared in by MT. and Mrs. Appleby and their son, the total expense for a trip lasting just thirty days and covering 3.S43 miles was exactly s160.43. This in cluded food, lodging, fuel, lubricants and repairs. Needless to say, the lat ter item did not leave much to record, being confined to five punctured tires. During the entire trip Appleby did not raise the hood on his "490' Chevrolet, except to put in oil.
 Our experience ought to be bene- ficial to anyone contemplating a trip across the country, but who hesitates either because of fear of the roads or the expense entailed," said Appleby. Tn neither instance is timidity justi- fled, for only in the case where tim. | Is vital factor does railroad service | even approach journeying in a motor | car.
 | The train fare from Cincinnati to the coast is $10S a person. and this figure makes no allowance for berths or meals. The total expense for three | nf h <I>4 and this included everything. Whil, we camped out most of the time. there was an occasion or two when we slept in hotels, but we found camping not only less expensive. but also much more enjoyable.
 l Our route included several side trips, mainly in Colorado. We drove from Cincinnati to Chicago. then ovel the White Pole Highway to Omaha
 from there to Denver our Chevrolet took us over the Omaha. Lincoln. Den- yer route. Then our side trips took us to Colorado Springs. where we
 spent two days; Leadville. Glenwooc | for a three-day layover, Grand June. tion. Price and Provo to Salt Lake
 We took the route north of the lake l to Nevada and Reno, and then by way | of Truckee to the Pacific.
 With the exception of the Nevada stretch, our road was good all the way l However. what we struck in the Sage
 brush state was hard enough to dis courage a weak driver, for we coulc hardly average four miles an hour or
 one 22-mile stretch. It was a case O
 zig gag back and forth across the
 wastes until we got over the bad spot
 We soon forgot this, though, when thu
 beautiful highways of the coast wer,
 reached"
 On his s.643-mile trip Appieby uset
 but Al gallons of gasoline. an average
 of 25.S3 miles to the gallon. His recort
 for low consumption of lubricants Wa
 remarkable. as his Chevrolet made tn
 trip on 15 quarts of oil. which was bet
 ter than 97z miles to the gallon.

believe me, I nearly faint when I think of some of the terrible times have had, in surroundings none too pleasant, trying to change the things The modern no-hook or straight side tire they know very little about
 Tt is next to impossible to get the slightest repair or adjustment outside of a regular automobile park. These parks. operated by all armies, where supplies are kept and repairs made, are situated at various points. Once broke down at fingers, in peace times a city of S0,o00 population. but being un- able to obtain a repair was compelled to go back to Paris by train and bring out mechanic and parts.
 French gasoline, or essence as it is called there, is not as good as the gasoline we get here, and it goes hard with American cars. American trucks and passenger cars are coming to France in large numbers. and one sees practically every make of automobile there."
