AUTOMOBILES ARE REVOLUT|ON|Z|NG
 WARFARE METHODS

How the automobile has revolution ized methods of warfare was recently pointed out by President Samuel P. Colt of the United States Rubber com pany, manufacturers of United States tires.
 Tn the days of the Civil war" said Colonel Colt, transportation was slow and tedious, being mostly in the hands of the obstinate army mule and the profane skinner. Operations and man euvers which are carried on daily in this war would have been impossible then because of the tardy distribution of supplies and armament.
 To-day army transportation is a marvel of speed and dependability, and rubber has been largely responsible for the change. The fast motor truck Of today could not have been developed on steel tires, or on tires of any known material other than rubber. Motor trucks carry supplies for soldiers, am munition for their guns and even the soldiers themselves making the army of today more than ever dependent upon mechanical transportation for it's effectiveness. The entente armies at the present time use in the neighbor- hood of SOO0O to 100000 motor trucks
 "The passenger automobiles with rubber tires make it possible for the commanders to oversee operations on 70. 30, 90 and even 100-mile fronts They make it possible for wounded men to be quickly and carefully car ried from the battlefield to the mod crn hospitals. Thousands of lives are weekly saved in this way. The motor cycle takes the place of the mounted dispatch bearer of other days. The total number of motor cars in use by the entente allies, exclusive of trucks is approximately 100000"

President David Jameson of the American Automobile Association re- gently presented to the two commit tees the case of the car owner in com munications to Chairman Kitchin of the house ways and means committee and to Chairman Simmons of the sen- ate finance committee. MT. Jameson commented upon to the fact that the motorist now receives extensive taxa tion attention from the several states, referred to the certainty that any inn post on new cars would be passed along to the consumer. and contended that any charge on the original cost of used cars would be manifestly un- just. MT. Jameson asserted that it would be as fair to tax coal as gaso- line. since both are fuel producing quantities.
 Several days after the filing of Mr. Jameson's communications, the house committee announced that it had de cided to base the federal tax on cars in use on a horsepower basis instead of on the original cost.

 BOOK ID LIBRARY

The New England Historical and Genealogical society, through its li- brarian. has paid unique compliment to booklet recently issued by the Cadillac Motor Car company. by add ing it to the society's library.
 The booklet goes exhaustively into the history of Antoine dc la Monthe Cadillac and his coat of arms. the name and the emblem both being used by the motor car company. It is complete historical work that has en- joyed wide distribution. Copies are now in the hands of Cadillac dealers for further distribution.
 i My attention has recently been called to your The Coat of Arms of Le Sieur Antoine de Ia Monthe Cadil- lac as very desirable book for the library of this society," says the h- brarians letter.

ly by the Pratt Gilbert Company, for the benefit of the Boys Federal Work ing Reserves in that city. There was good evidence that the boy of that city is anxious to become a man of the son and make things hum this year.
 The boys did remarkable work last year. The Chicago Board of Education placed roo of them and had unsatisfac- tory reports of only three. They earned about S60.000 in wages and were paid only what the farmer thought they were worth. The work did them good physically and morally. gave them valuable experience. helped answer a serious labor shortage and did much tC increase the crops. Many of them may later take up farming as an occupa : tion and make it pay well. At any rate all will be benefited. for what man in the city later in life does not coun, the days of his boyhood on the farm as time well spent.

WHY PLEASURE CARS?

pedient since the war began to buy nearly five times as many passenger cars as they had when it broke out
 Determine the number of people on this con- tinent who have felt it necessary to do without host of other things for the purpose of owning the motor cars they found so much more useful.
 Figure how we should do the useful things our motor cars make possible if there were no motor cars in service.
 Discover for yourself, as we have discovered that 2,700,O00 additional horses worked to the limit every day could barely shoulder the burden in their sluggish. inefficient way, and that 1t would take 13,50O,000 acres not now in cultva- ton to feed the horses.
 And when you have summed it all up, go back to your vocabulary and eXtirpate that lying phrase, ''pleasure car ''-The Kant Slip.

pleasure-even now he is not guiltless of the charge-yet his services as whole have been so- predominantly practical that he escapes the op- probrium of being "pleasure horse.'
 The passenger automobile alone stands cursed with descriptive term wholly devoid of utilitarian suggestion. Nothing in the whole list of utensils devised for recreation bears title so destructive as the private carriage of the busy modern worker-a carriage far more democrat ically used than the horse carriage of old; car riage as cheap per passenger mile as the horse carriage and with ten times it's radius of action; a carriage that annually in this country carries 25,O00OO0,O00 more passengers than the rail roads-more, indeed than steam and electric roads combined and that saves billion dollars worth of time per annum on even the most trif- ling valuation of the hours it conserves.
Arizona republican., 1918-08-25

We'll, either it is ''pleasure car' or it is not There is no twilight zone" What it is depends on where it goes. If the farmers car is used six-sevenths to save his productive hours, the fact that one-seventh of it's is for needed outing now and then certainly does not warrant tors car expands his usefulness tenfold, the fact that now and then it also refreshes his lungs and rests his tired nerves can never detract from the utilitarian character of it's primary function. If the busy woman's car enables her to add work for the Y w. c. A., the Red Cross and the Ma tional League for Woman's Service to the we'll filled schedule of her peace time services, it does not become a thing only of pleasure because, at intervals, it also recruits her vital energies.

NNTHAT IS pleasure car? Presumably car WV that is used primarily for pleasure No
 vehicle can be a pleasure vehicle per SC, for vehicles are built for transportation, and transportation is not of itself thing of pleasure, but the process of carrying people or commodi ties from one place to another.
 A railroad is used daily for the pleasure of some passengers but we do not call it a ''peasure railroad" If it were used chiefly for pleasure we should have right to do so, but the total of its passengers and freight combined is such trfling percentage that scarcely consider them at all in estimating it's usefulness.
 The telephone does as much to promote pleasure as any other institution in the world, but who calls it "peasure telephone?"
