Renders Actual Service.

The actual service Of the passenger
automobile is clearly emphasized by
George S. Morrow, president Of the
Saxon Motor Company Of New York.
who says:
mot small factor of the United
States strength in the present war
is the universally of the automobile
in American life. When one stops
to consider the number of motor cars
in this country and the fact that the
men behind the lines-the business
and industrial workers of the ma
tion-are practically all motorized. it
is appreciab Bile at once that the nation
has big advantage in the war. The
motor car means more speed and
more efficiency in business. 1t means
a big help to the Industries which
are supplying the men in the
trenches.
And the best part Of 1t is that the
Army in the field and its adjacent units
can be equipped with motor equipment
without sacrificing the industrial needs
for automobiles. Unlike England and
France. we have not been forced to
turn over our private motor cars and
trucks to tho government We are able
this year not only to supply the needs
Of the fighting forces. but also to produce

BRIGHT FUTURE SEEN

Automobile Men Look Forward to
Great Business After
S. the War.

Right alongside the truck the
passenger automobile is proving a
strong factor in Americas favor in
the war. dealers say. and facts prove
1t. 1t has practically passed as an
exclusive pleasure vehicle and has
become a machine Of service.
At present the industry is strug-
Cling against heavy odds. but never
theless dealers are inclined to be
optimistic in viewing the future.
Shortage of materials. railroad
endorsements. a lack of labor ana

amicted the motor car industry In

yer Of New York. I'VE are faced to-
day with a drastic cut in production,

"As to the immediate future, or,

Garry Less Than Capacity.

even the so-called loaded trucks
carry less than one-third capacity. or
an average of only 1000 pounds. This
means that each of the 100000 trucks
when loaded might carry almost a
ton more. or 100000 additional tons:
and on three trips 100000 might be
handled If they were always loaded
to capacity. This. of course. is an
ideal condition. which will never be
attained. Yet we have here a list of
over 3.O00,0 900 tons a day as the theo-
retical unused capacity of the trucks
In the United States.
How much of this hypothetical
capacity can be turned into actual
capacity by adoption of the return
load bureau in. every city in the
United States is problematical. But
this is what must be done if We are
to handle the freight of the country
expeditiously and efficiently Keep
the truck full. but the driver sober"

our needs at home.
While the motor car is of paramount
importance at the front, it is equally
necessary here. Daily we find more and
more businesses are being motorized.
For the automobile is a definite means
to the. end which is speeding up and
examining more work into the twenty

Potential Carrying Capacity.

1.-THE enormous potential carrying
capacity Of the motor-driven trucks
in this country cannot be realized,
but the following figures, assuming
ideal conditions. arouse US to at least
some sense of appreciation. There are
approximately in use in tho United
States some 100000 trucks.
IF 70 per cent Of these are running
empty one way. here are 35o.oO0 pos
sible carriers not used. Assuming the
average capacity as one and a half
tons, this means that one trip a day
these trucks could handle $4,000 tons
of freight. Now the average truck
operates three trips a day, which
brings the figures up to 1,575,000 tons
per day more than they are now
carrying that might be handled under

Spring Paradox.

From the Boston Transcript.
It Is a paradox of the season that
although we love trees we are glad
to see them leaving.
Evening star., 1918-06-02

"The figures obtained by time
studies are almost unbelievable as to
the small use that is being made Of
trucks, both horse and motor, as COM
pared with the possibilities as freight
movers. especially on short hauls."
says Mr.. Foljambe. Fully 20 per
cent are entirely empty either on the
outgoing or return trip and the ap-
palling fact stares us in the face that
the average load (when they are sup
posed to be loaded) is less than one
third of their capacity. Think what
this means throughout the United
States.

Automobile statistics are often sur

given in the Commercial Car Journal
by f. S. Foljambe, recent vice presi-
dent of the Society of Automotive
Engineers, as to the total freight
carrying capacity of the commercial
cars of the country when carrying
return loads are declared to be sug-
gestive at this time when railroads
and express companies are taxed be-
yond capacity.
The return load movement is gradu-
ally gathering momentum. this author

New Bullet Used.

The present war has brought forth
a new kind of ammunition for airplane
use in the form Of special cartridges
containing bullets for piercing
tracing, and incendiary purposes. All
OF these cartridges are .of the small
rifle calibers, according to statement
authorized by tile War. Department.
The three-tenths Of an inch diane
ter and short length of the bullet left
little space for the armor- piercing ele-
ment or for tracer and incendiary
,composition, but ssuch combinations
have been made.
The bullets developed by the United
States Ord nance Department have
been tested on land and from airplanes
to see if there is any difference in
their performance when...fred from a
aQnickly moving airplane in the upper
atmosphere and when.fred on land.
These tests indicate that the United
States has developed class of special
cartridges with performance fully
a@Qnai to or surprising that attained
abroad.

an America that was half slave and
half free, and he said: aTLis cannot
be; this nation cannot survive half
slave and half-free." And in persuit
of that idea Abraham Lincoln, the
Emancipation, made the American
continent free!
The individual, the State, the con-
tinent and another period OF time
elapsed when America was for the
fourth time discovered by a President
of the United States, William Nc
Kinley. He discovered that the hemi-
sphere was not free--and the Ameri-
can people came forward with the
highest ideals and said; s'This hemi-
I sphere cannot exist half slave and
half-free," and Spain was elected from
the Western Hemisphere.
! Is there anything more natural
than that the fifth discovery should
| have come to us at this time, when it
offers us the greatest opportunity
that vase ever offered to mankind and
! in which we are permitted to associ-
ate ourselves with those nations who
I are fighting the battles for freedom
across On the other side of the Allan
tic Ocean? The men of Briton!
The men of France! The men Of Italy!
And why are they fighting? That the
individual shall be free? No! That the
State shall be free? No! That the
hemisphere shall be free? No!
THAT THE WHOLE WORLD
SHALL BE FIR EE!
And our Presi dent has truthfully
stated our position when he declares
I'VE are in this fight to a finish and
until the world is made safe for Dem
ocracy." Simply that there shall be
written into the constitutions of all
the governments by the whole people
The Liberty of the individual
the liberty of the State.
That is the progression and that
is why the Almighty God has
held us in reserve to come along at a
critical moment with all our resour-
ces, with all our souls, with every
thing that is within us, and we now
are standing shoulder to shoulder
with our noble Allies in the path of
the raving beast of Potsdam who was
about to close his bloody fingers upon
the threats of the people of the earth,
This fifth discovery of America is
the greatest of all the five, and, it is
to the everlasting glory of the Amer
lean people, that our position has been
made so plain that the hidebound Au-
tocrats in any civilized country can
not for moment misunderstood the
high and honorable aims that have
led us into this war!

The Meaning Of Goods and
Service.

When it is said that in the present
financial year the Government is to
spend specified amount of money,
what is meant is that the Govern
ment must have, for purposes of war,
goods and services valued at that a.
mount. The goods are the supplies re-
quired in the shape of ships, shells,
guns, rifles, motors, horses, saddlery,
clothes and food for the soldiers and
sailors. The services are the services
rendered by the fighting meE and by
all who supply the various require
ments Of the Army and Navy.
And, if the Govern ment is to have,
in the enormous volume required, the
goods and services that need to be
provided now, civilians who cannot
fight must go without many of the
goods and services they used to enjoy
in times of peace. This is inevitable,
for there is not enough available ener-
gy and labor in the country to produce
all that is required for the war, and
also to provide the comforts and lux
uries we used to enjoy when there
was no war.
In short, the needs of the nation for
the purpose of war cannot be met UNI
less we save, and save by going with
out the things that are not absolutely
essential to the efficiency and health
Of the individual.
