CAPTAIN Priest Tells of Britain'S
Part in War.
She Has Buried More Than MIL
lion of Her Sons.

In a speech at the Chamber of Com
merce this noon Capt. S. G. Priest of
the British army removed whatever
lingering doubts the citizens of Topeka
may have held regarding the way
Britain has done her full share in the
war. In telling just one little Incl
dent of his experiences in the trenches
Captain Priest related a tale of British
courage the equal of anything history
records.
ST had young lieutenant in my bat
talon who went over the top for the
first time for the sole purpose of get
ting used to it. He went out and was
gone about an hour, when the sentry
in our trench told me that he heard
some one coming in toward our lines.
We listened and the sound grew closer
and closer until after a bit bland
vouric face peered over the trench and
n cheerful voice inquired, Excuse nae,
but is this the British lines?'"
Purpose of Visit.
CAPTAIN Priest is in America in the in
terests of the British government. and his
work might be well described as of the
propaganda order. In fact it is that in two
ways-he is here to help tell America what
England and the British Isles have already
done in the war and he is here to lay bare
the lying propaganda which has been in
agents
Facts cited by Captain Priest allow of
no doubt that England. Scotland and
Wales have borne their full share in the
fighting as well as the British colonies and
dominions. Captain Priest stated that at
the outbreak of the war the British empire
maintained standing army OF about
go 600 regulars and a few hundred thou
sand territorials. Today Britain has raised
an army of S500.0O0. OF this eight and
one-half million men five and one-half mil
lion men are of England and the British
Isles. The remainder are colonials and
dominion troops.
More Than Million Dead.
So far in the war the British empire has
buried more than one million of her sons,
and another million and a half are casual
ties Of the full 2,jGo,000 men An the

are represented with 10 per cent OF the

numerous incidents of his two years in the
war. He was in Toxic, Japan. at the out
break of the war. went to England and
was made a lieutenant in the Butts,
Britain's oldest regiment.
Cantain Priest said that he expects to stay
in the United States for the next six
months He asserted IN the course Of his
talk this noon that even If peace is de-
clared today. it will be long time before
the boys will be home because there is q

Steel, wood fibre and cotton, each

Steel tires are durable enough but
they fail in all three essentials. They
fail to give traction, they transmit
vibration to the truck mechanism
and they do not cushion the load.
Even with air used as a cushion be-

was useless on vehicle which pro-
pels itself by power delivered at the
