to allow the chain to catch in the brake
mechanism and it is ruined or lost.
To apply chain properly it is not
necessary to jack up the wheel Lay
the chain over the top of the rear

wheel and push the car forward. The

Ill you find one which opens the link
easily, or at least more easily than the

so do not look for a tool that will
open a link without effort.
The question is frequently asked,
how many chains car should carry
and where they should be placed. Each
wheel should have a chain in icy
weather, but some drivers carry less.
Where one chain is used it should be
on the left rear, so as to avoid damage
at the curb. If two are used they
should be on both rear wheels to in
sure traction and reduce differential
action.
Do not fasten chains so tightly that
they cannot creep, nor fasten them to

Nash Announces
Prices Will STAY
Put Until July l
Foresees Season of Great
Prosperity for All Motor
Products - Distributors
Meet at kenosha, Wis.

There viii be no changes in the
prices OF Nash passenger cars and
trucks before July l. 1919" was the
statement made by President C. W.
Nash at meeting of distributors from
all parts OF the country held recently
-. kenosha.
In discussing his position on the
price question, President Nash said:
1T has always been my policy to cut
manufacturing costs by efficient manu-
securing methods and to sell on very
mall margin of profit on volume
production basis. This policy we have
rigidly adhered to throughout the war
reriod and are continuing tho same
policy now.
"Thc Nash products have not been
overpriced. We made no raises on
these products except those naturally
brought about by rehnements, improve
mcnts and just recognition OF the
prices of material and labor.
Our margin OF profit on the COM
plete Nash line is small one, and it
IS only by quantity production that we
are in a position to market the line
at these figures and remain here i'll
business.
Realizing this situation, We have
made the announcement to the public
that there will be no changes in Nash
prices before July /, 1919. We make
this announcement because Of the un-
certainty in the minds Of some dealers
and in the minds Of the public brought
about by the fact that some companies
which had made raises in the prices Of
their products at the time that it
seemed probable that there would be
10 passenger car production in 1919,
With the changed conditions have re-
adjusted their prices.
"The reports brought in by our dis
tributers at their meeting indicate that
there is great prosperity ahead for the
automobile industry throughout the
United States.
"The prospect Of peace is already
bringing about big demand for both
passenger cars and trucks. Owing to
tho limited production for the general
public during the war period there is
likely to be an undersupply of both
passenger cars and trucks. Dealers and
owners are recognizing this, and, in my
opinion, the coming spring will see the
biggest demand for motor products
that this country has ever seen.
I've are glad that because of the
TACT that our war work was strictly on
production Of our regular line of pas
senger cars and trucks we are in &
position Immediately to proceed to
volume production Of these same prod
ucts for consumers.
"Thcrefore we believe our factory,
our distributors and our dealers all are
in a position to reap their full share in
the prosperity which the end Of the
war has brought to business generally"

serted and the old one removed without
taking the chain from the wheel.
At the beginning Of the winter, over
haul your old chains and prepare them
for use. Starting with the fasteners
at the ends, take out every other grip
and put in a new one. This gives you
virtually a new chain. To be sure,
the links in between arc weak, but
when one of them breaks the strain
comes on the next link, which is new
and strong. 7 have seen a car come
back from trip with five links broken
on one chain. Fortunately, the links
between were new ones and the chain
was still serviceabe. But where all
the links are old and one breaks, a
greater strain in placed on the next
If this is weak it will soon give way
and so bring all the more strain on the

Better Roads to the South

Announcement of the practical COM
pIetion OF the new concrete road be-
tween Alexandria and Accotink, Va,
on the main route from this city to the
southland, and an appropriation Of
100000 from the War Department to
extend this form of construction four
miles beyond the latter point, is made
By the Touring Bureau of the A. A. A.
Metropolitan Consulate. This improve
ment Kill be appreciated by many
motorists. whose inquiries to the Tour
ing Bureau indicate a marked increase
IN Southern touring this winter.
There still remains a quarter mile
of unfinished surface between AleXan-
dria and Accotink, but the detour is
short and over fair dirt and gravel.
Another material improvement con-
sists in opening for traffic a new rail-
road underpass at Lorton station, thus
obviating the necessity OF using the
dangerous grade crossing which was
formerly necessary at that place.
Between Lorton station and Deco
quan there is good gravel road for
about five miles. South Of Occoquan
there is six-mile stretch now under
construction which is designed to elm
mate the bad road which must now be
used This road is particularly dan
gerous in wet weather ana should
never be attempted without making
careful inquiries about its condition
at the Washington Office Of the
a. A. A.
The balance of the route through
Fredericksburg to Richmond is now
Tree from detours and consists Of good
gravel practically all the way. Tour
SITS are cautioned to watch for sharp
tight turn at frame garage about
four miles beyond the bridge over
Chopawamsic Creek. Any one missing
this turn would continue probably to
Stafford or Brooke, where the good
,oad ends, and from whence it would
be necessary to reverse several miles
n order to get back again to the main
road leading to Fredericksburg.
Further details regarding the best
route to Florida may be secured upon
application to the Touring Bureau of

important applications of this principle
is in the matter Of tire chains. The
chain acts like a gear that grips the
road, preventing skidding. 1t digs
donw through the soft mud and holds
to the solid ground underneath. On
wet asphalt it secures traction.
The side pieces OF chain are made
Of soft iron, very tough, and they will
wear for several years as there is very
little strain on them. The heavy duty
comes upon the cross links or "grips'
which are case hardened. This pre-
vents excessive wear, SO that a cross
link will last several months. Once
the case hardening is worn away, the
link wears rapidly, and finally breaks.
This is soon remedied by the careful
driver who always carries an extra
supply of links and chain, too, for re-
placements. The new link may be in

| feat. Karl stood firm. The great fort
resses on the border must hereafter
contain only nominal garrisOns. For
the seaport strip he had almost dou-
bled his price. The railroad must be
completed within two years.
''The Princess Hedwig," Karl said
suddenly. "She has been told, of
course?"
"Not officially. She knows, how
ever"
"How does she regard it?'
The chancellor hesitated. "Like
most young women, she would prefer
making her own choice. But that,
he added hastily, sis but whim. She
is lovable and amiable girl. When
the time comes, she will be willing
enough"
Karl stared out through one of the
heavily curtained windows. He was
not so sure. And the time had gone
by when he would have enjoyed the
tanning of a girl. Now he wanted
peace-was he not paying price for
it?-and children to inherit his we'll
managed kingdom. And pern&ps-who
knows?-a little love. Before him rose
vision of Hedwig, her frank eyes, her
color that rose and fell, her soft, round
body.
"You have no reason to believe that
she has-loOked elsewherep
"None, SIRE" said the chancellor
stoutly.
By late afternoon ell was arranged,
papers signed and witnessed, and the
two signatures affixed, the one small
and cramped-a soldiers hand; the
other bold and fiowing-the scrawl OF
king. And Hedwig, save for the cere-
mony, was the bride of Karl of kar-
MIA.
1t was then that the chancellor rose
and stretched his legs. "And now,
sire" he said, "since we are friends
and no longer enemies. you will, /
know, release that mad boy Of mine"
"When do you start backT
"Within an hour"
Before that time" said Karl, 'you
shall have him, chancellor"
And with that Mettlich was forced
to be content. He trusted Karl no
more now than he ever had. But he
made his adieus with no hint of trou-
bic In his face.
Karl stood for moment in the open
air. 1t was done, then, and well done.
It was hard to realize. He turned TO
the west, where for so long behind the
mountains had lurke6 an enemy. A
new era was opening; peace, disarma-
ment, quiet and prosperous land. He
had spent his years of war and women.

He TELLS NJ ADOO


ESPECIAL coRRrsPoNoENcE TO MORNING JOURNAL
Denver, colo, oct. 1S.-In spite of
the fact that he has cast sugar plums
in the way of increased wages before
the railroad men of this country, Di-
rector General MCAdoo has run up
against snag in Colorado, when one
William S. Peel of Alamosa a con-
ductor has declined flatly TO heed
McAdoo's order forbidding railroad
employees to hold private office or
even attend political meetings as del
egates. McAdoo painted Utopian
visions to the railroad employees, then
suddenly wrecked the picture by the
drastic order forbidding man to
give expression to his political activ-
tiles.
Feeling the coercion that McAdoo
and the administration were directing
towards railroad employees, the four
big brotherhoods of railroad men
the engineers, firemen, conductors and
trainmen--are to disregard the order
of Director General McAdoo forbid
ding railroad employees to hold public
office or even attend political meet
ings as delegates, according to word
received by a Denver railroad from
Washington.
1t is not unlikely that test case
will be made in the William S. Peel
matter. Peel is chairman of his
brotherhood's grievance committee
| and candidate for the Colorado house
! of representatives. Should Peel be
| elected and the railroad admnistra-
! ton seek to discharge him, the con-
| troversy between the brotherhoods
and McAdoo will be brought to an
! ISSUE
| The presidents of the brotherhoods,
| according to information received in
! Denver, have lodged protest against
! the order and are preparing to send
out word to their LEGAL organizations
| throughout the United States to flatly
| disregard it. They take the stand
that the order takes away the railroad
mems civil and political rights with
out any justification whatever The
| salary sugar plums cannot repay
| Americans for the loss of that inalien-
able right to vote and participate in
the government of their land
Can it be possible that McAdoo
paved his way with salary increases
to q point where he thought he was
safe in his endeavor to strip from rail-
road men the right to take a hand in
the government of the United States
| If such was McAdoo's intention he
| rubbed up against the wrong class OF
! people when he tackled railroad men,
Salary sugar plums mean little to a
! man who is robbed of his right Ia
| participate in the government of the
| land which was born in freedom.
