NEARLY 100 SHIPS
 LAUNCHED JULY 4
Merchant Tonnage Under Our
 Flag Passes 1O,O0O,0O0 Mark

Washington, July 5.-Amorica' merchant fleet crown to t0,O40, 659 gross tons by tha construction of l,- h29 new ships Of 1,4so.79 tons in the fiscal ear~~endcd June 30. was ausn yesterday by the unprece- dented launching of nearly 100 ships
 The feat of the local Army of workmen, which made the iaunchings possible. received due recognition from the highest officials directing the war activities of-the nation.
 We are all comrades in a great cause said President Wilson in messa ge, made public last night and read yesterday as part of the launch ing ceremonies in seventy Six yards. From General Pershing came the thanks Of the American fighting men in Europe for the support Of which the launchngs were substantial evi- dence.
 With such backing we cannot fail to win" asserted the commander of the United States army in France.
 
 directing the shipbuiding progra m, did not stint his praise Of the men actually building the ships in ex- pressing the appreciation of the shipping board for the work accom- pliShed.
 Your employees will douse the Kaiser" he said in telegram 10 the yard management
 ir, M, to two yards in tho Philadelphia dis trict to take part in the launching ceremonies. Director General Schwab and Vice. President Piez of the Elmer gency Fleet Corporation. were guests Of honor in San Francisco, where the Schwab plant recaptured the laurels taken by an eastern yard with the Tuckahoe by launching a 12,o00-ton steel vessel in loss than 40 working days r..t
 The vast program cf launchings in which shipyards from Bath, Me, to Tampa, Fla. and from Tacoma Wash, to Los Angeles, Cal, took part, was started at a minute after midnight when at Superior, Wis, the Lake Aurice, steel vessel Of S,4o0 tons, slid down the ways.
 Until the last hull is put overheard on the Pacific Coast. tho shipping board will not know definitely the number of launchinss, Original esti- mates listed a5 ships as likely to take the water. but as Mir Hurley and Mir. SchWab were insistent that no ves- sel should be held back, several went down the ways ahead of time. Others not included in the list have been speeded up by the caGerness Of workmen to make tho splash tho greatest in the worlds history,
 Announcement by the bureau of navigation that tho merchant tonnage flying the stars and Stripes had passed the 10000, 006-nark started the day with thrill for Americans and good cheer for the Allies. That total does not include 200, 900 tons of the reuui- sitioned Dutch ships. 404, TOO tons of hospital ships. transports and other auxiliary craft operated by the army and navy, and smaller craft under 500 tons employed in considerab bla mum bers in military and naval serV- ice. The fiscal years output was ths greatest in the nations history.

From the above il is clear that some ''re-

For when the price of product was in

yet been put back where it belongs!
And that is just what happened in sew
eral cases.
Just consider moment:
II a maker il able to drop back to pre-
war" prices today, on what basis did he
Justify his wartime price? And espe-
cslly his most recent wartime peak
price?
Certainly he bought no materials while
we were in the war--he could not.
IL he bought them before, then he bought
them at the same rates we did
In that case there was no real reason for
his excessive wartime peak" price.
II he cannot Justify his prices of yester-
day can you accept his statements to-
day?
Only gauge you have as TO the intrinsic
value of his product is--its pre-war
price.
Especially il this 30 il the model he IL
offering YOU today is precisely the same
model he offered you then, but at 20 to
Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1918-12-29

25 per cent advance now over his then
prices {even after his recent reduction.)
Ia IL not logical to assume that, as ms
price yesterday was fictitious, 1t Is still
almost equally SO?
II costs more to build motor car today
than it did year ago.
Materials are higher--wages are higher.
All costs are higher.
IL will continue for long time to come
on the present scale we believe.
Tell you why.
Materials are now in demand by the
whole world--will continue TO be dur
ing the years of reconstruction in Europe.
Especially is this 30 in the case Of steel,
copper and other minerals.
Rubber also will likely range higher.
Rubber Ia the biggest single item Of cost
In motor car and it is in great demand.
Wages will never go back to the pre-
war scale.
Every student Of the problem is now
agreed upon that.
Yod have read in the newspapers lately
the statement by the United States Steel
Corporation that that concern Is not
going to reduce wages-and that con-
cern is the biggest employer of labor in
the world.
1t is well!-pass the prosperity around
and'we will all get our share.
II the mechanic gets more pay, all lines
OF business benefit--and more people
are able to buy motor cars.
We can see no reason to expect that the
cost of manufacturing n Maxwell Motor
Car will be less in year from now than
II il today.
War or no war, the price of the Max
well product would have been precisely
what 1t ia today.
We did take advantage of the wartime
condition-but only to incorporate in
this new model several changes and i'm
provements.
Factory busy on war work, our engineers
and tool makers had a brief respite
and we used that to perfect the Maxwell
product.
We have spent more than 500. 900 on
special tools for more accurate finishing
of parts.
Cylinders are now ground after roaming
formerly only reamcd. That is only
one Of many similar refinements.
This new 1919 model Maxwell, deliveries
of which. will begin Immediately, il n
superior product.

Gasoline tank is at rear instead Of under
front seats--costs more, worth it.

Recently you have seen announcements
Of price reductions on some makes OF
motor cars
These seeming reductions 1--WE use the
term seeming" advisedlyD have given
the average buyer an erroneous inmpres-
sion.
That impression il to the effect that the
price Of motor cars generally Is above
normal and will come down In the near
future.
Now, as a matter Of fact, that is not the
condition at all.
There Ia no warrant for any such as
sumption.
Just analyze the situation yourself and
see IL our statements are justified.
Recall the prices that existed on certain
makes of automobiles before the UniteS
States went into the war and compare
the prices Of those same cars today.
You'll find that any reductions that have
been made were necessary.
In word, they apply only to cars that
were r-priced--war-ume priced
before such reductions.
For example :-Consider four makes Of
cars that formerly were priced in close
competition with the Maxwell.
Compare their pre-war (normal) prices;
their wartime peak" prices, and their
present reduced" prices Wen desig-
nate them ABB" &C" and "D."

We Absolutely Guarantee
Present Maxwell Prices

Maxwell Motor Cars do not belong to
the Cheap Car Class" This product Is
the undisputed leader in the Refined
Car Class.
BY refined" we mean in mechanical
sense.
Maxwels are not ma to fit pre-de-
termined nor to met competitive,
price.
They are designed to fill certain def
mite demand for light car OF quality
internally as well as in outward appear
ance.
We first make the car as 1t should be
made, then set the price.
We do not cut our price to meet the price
of car of inferior quality.
Nor did we, as we have shown, take ad-
vantage Of a wartime excuse to raise the
price to fictitious figure.
Had the war continued and we had not
made another car, the buyer Of the last
Maxwell would have paid the regular
price-and no more.
The Maxwell policy is clean and II Is
consistent-we are not "opportunists' in
business.
Those changes and refinements in this
new 1919 model actually cost more than
the difference between it's price and that
of the 1918 model.
So the price of this new Maxwell should
have been more.
But we are content to accept smaller
margin Of profit per car in the interest OF
greater volume 30 have continued that
price on this 1919 model.
Ia. .,uIl L. l. a,,Io
of users than OF any comparable car
we are counting on the splendid quality
with the low price of this latest model to
maintain that leadership.
"But talk In oil rikbt," you say.
You want something definite, something
tangible to tie 70.
Very well-here h your guarantee.
Price Of the Maxwell Motor Car today
Touring or Roadster model) 10 $3.50
{. o. b. Detroit, Michigan, and we abso-
lutely guarantee that price until Juno
next, 1919.
Every Maxwell dealer is authorized to
give you that guarantee in writing at the
time Of purchase of your car.
Some makers have announced reductions
Others will follow.
SO far, however, we have seen no real
reductions-though there have been
some genuine increases Of price since
the war closed. There will be more Of
the latter, too
In buying Maxwell Motor Car you
know precisely where you stand.
And our guarantee of the price is your
best guarantee of the intrinsic value of
this product.
So buy the Maxwell you need--get your
order in early.
Maxwells may 20 to a premium-price
may have TO be increased-but we guar
antee you absolutely against a reduction.

Nelson Accepted-Anxious to Go.

Walter Nelson, who recently went
to Phoenix and took the examination
relative to his physical qualifications
for service in the u. S. army, received
word this week that he passed the
examination satisfactorily and has
been accepted. Mr.. Nelson is highly
pleased with the result as he has been
anxious ever since the United States
became involved to take a hand in
the conflict, and Notwithstanding
The fact that he has dependents
wife and several small children-he
has waived all claims to exemption
and is ready to go. His zeal is very
2ommendable for it shows a spirit of
lnalloyed patriotism we'll worthy of
emulation. He expects to be called

THIS SECURITY
UN|MPEACHAbLE

We should bear in mind that the
War Savings campaign is on and
that it will last through the year. 1t
is so continuous that we are apt to
forget about it; in that case it is
not much of a campaign. In order
that it may be fully successful, it
must be kept constantly in mind, and
we are again reminded of it by the
following query from an exchange:
When the rest of the folks line up
at the pOstOffice window on January
l, 1923, to cash their savings stamps.
where are you going to be?'
The first reply will naturally be,
Who? Me?" A good many thousands
of people will reply that they will be
at the postoffice window, in line. A
good many other thousands, much
larger than the first group, careless,
Indifferent, shoulder struggling Am
orleans, whose attitude toward their
country is tatamount to neutrality,
Will not be in line.
They will have risked nothing,
contributed nothing, and have felt
nothing of the worlds most historic
conflict and the nations most gigan-
tic effort There are many like that,
and their principal interest in the
war is to wish that it would end be-
fore it costs them something in the
way of money or inconvenience. But
they, in fact, are contributing to the
very thing they would avoid, the pro-
lOngation of the war.
The war savings stamps are not
heroic investments or forced loans on
inadequate security. They are back
ed by everything in the United States
and the interest rate they pay is
The Parker post., 1918-11-02
Congress will
SUPPORT the President Wilson war

higher than such investments have
hitherto drawn. 1t should not be
considered any great sacrifice to buy
war savings stamps. 1t Is not a
sacrifice at ALL 1t is something
profitable to do and at the same time
right and patriotic. 1t shows that
the buyers heart is functioning
properly, that his confidence in his
country, his faith in his flag, is
something more than lip loyalty.
What sort of an American is he
who can be content to do nothing,
not even lending money on unim-
peachable security to assist the coun-
try that gives him liberty, prosperity
and pride of nationality? OF course
the big sacrifices are to be made by
the young men who participate in the
actual destruction on the firing line.
We who stay at home and read the
anything, certainly we are not heroes
for making profitable investments.
But we will be unworthy and un-
lovely if we DO nothing to help.
1t is we'll, then, for us to look for
ward to that pay day, January |,
1928 BY that time the war will be
over and we will not only get our
money back, but along with it a pre-
MUM that we had not figured ON, a
pride that we had something, how
ever small, to do with the war. We
shall feel some shame, and it ought
to be a large measure of shame, If we
have nothing to do with the great
struggle.
