WORK FOR THE LOANS

" HE civic organizations of the
city are lining up behind the
loans to be voted for in No
vember. They want the bridge fund
transferred, they want the bathing
beaches, the bath houses, the street
paving and the sewers which are to
be provided through the bond issues
proposed.
The city never has turned down a
loan that was clearly understood.
The great trouble has been to inter
est the public in such proposals. II
attention can be called to them
properly by volunteer workers, the
newspapers and printed matter about
the election polls their adoption will
be certain.

A REAL ARBOR DAY

TOR the first time in years Har-
s. II risburg will have a real Arbor
Day tomorrow.
Governor Sproul and King Albert
will set the example for the re-
mainder of the city by planting
a tree each in Capitol Park.
Afterward, through the instru-

Trees are essential to the beauty

better the town looks and the pleas

Louisville, KY, Sept. 9.-The city
of Louisville will this morning file
suit in the Chancery Branch of the
Jefferson Circuit Court asking can
collation. of all contracts with the
Louisville Railway Company and ap-
pointment of a receiver to take
charge of the company property
pending the action. The city's step
will be based on agreements with the
company which, it holds,v requires
operation of sufficient number of
cars. to meet demands of the public
Announcement to the company
that he would institute the suit, was
made by Mayor Smith late yesterday
in less than an hour after it turned
down an ultimatum by the Mayor to
the company '.that you promptly re-
sumo conference with representa-
tives Of the union of your employees
and that contract be signed with such
representatives which will guarantee
the men reasonable and just working
conditions"
The Mayors step will be heartily
approved by the strikers. The rail,
way officials will claim that they are
willing to treat with their men col.
lectively, but will not deal with those
responsible for the breach of con-
tract not to strike, or those who have
destroyed their property, soaped
their rails and been guilty Of other
lawlessness. The Mayors action
takes the strike into the courts, where
all strikes accompanied by violence
sooner or later must go for settle

The accompanying picture is of the three Hudson Super Sizes now in use by George Irving, who keeps a taxi stand in front of the Sugar Bowl.
 George Irving has just purchased the third of the Hudsons of this type from Cal Messner, who is the local preventative of the Hudson Motor Car company. Irving de- cded to install Hudson Super Sizes in his business because of the wonderful record the car has made in the past few years. As soon as he had tried out Hud- son he knew at once that he had hit upon the right car for his line of business. With a super amount of power, which is greatly needed in this section of the country, Mir. Irvings cars are able to pull through any road in the state that is passable. He had that in view when he purchased his first Hud- son, and as soon as he had given it a thorough and complete tryout, he ordered another one. Now he has three in service.
 Cal. Messner, who sold the car to Irving, has sold a great many other cars of the same make to local mo- torists. Always when a man buys a Hudson, according to MT. Mess ner, he is perfectly satisfied with his car. And when he is ready to get another one it is always another Hudson. Some of Mir. Messner's steady" customers have bought as much as five or six Hud- sons.

 These officials and delegates were successful business men from every state-the men who helped to put over the Liberty loan, Red Cross, Y. NJ. c. A. and War Savings stamp campaigns. Through their activities the American merchant marine grew from nothing to the boss of the seas." Through their efforts an army of 2,000,000 men grew from one of 50,000.
 Now these same men are looking at the lack of good roads and what they are seeing has convinced them that Americas next patriotic move is to build good roads to provide the proper transportation facilities for the na- tion's industries and communities.
 When 1,500 men from 46 states get this idea in their minds and take it back to their respective communities, you can see what the future of the good roads movement is in America
 To my mind this is the first real step taken to insure that this nation lack of good roads is only a matter of time and that before long motor trucks can load up at Portland, Maine. and deliver the load in Portland. Ore gon, without once getting off an inn proved highway.

 REAL FAIRGROUNDS

Members of the park and playground committee are getting an early start this winter, that everything might be in readiness for the warm weather The committee is now directing ex- tensive improvements at Eastlake and Woodlawn parks, to give Phoenix children suitable playgrounds during the coming season.
 Heretofore. Woodlavn park has been neglected, but if the plans of the over seers materialize there will be many stretches of lawn and shade trees will be planted. The children and their parents will be allowed to play unmo- tested, for there will be no keep off the grass" signs.
 Benches will be placed all around under shade trees, and playground contrivances. such as see-saws and swings, will be scattered all about the park. The park committee will see tha tthe playgrounds are kept up throughout the year and that the lawns are properly irrigated.
 The Eastlake park will not be so extensively improved, yet nothing will be left 1ndone to make it a proper and suitable playground.
 The park committee was appointed several weeks ago and the improve ments of Woodlawn and Eastlake park is the first work they have done Mem bers of the committee are J. D. Loper Mrs. J. D. Henderson and Clifford Maddox

CHEVROLET SEDAN
 SHELTERED PARTY
 FROM COLD WINDS

Heaven bless the man who invented the Sedan. Had we been in an open car I am sure our little boy would have been made seriously i'll. But, as it is, we all came through without the slightest discomfort
 This was the heartfelt tribute paid to her Chevrolet Sedan the other day by Mrs. F. A. Abercrombie who, with her husband, sister and two-year- son arrived on the coast after an over land journey from Fl Paso, Texas, on which more than ordinary adventures and priVations of cross s-country tour were encountered
 The incident to which Mrs. Aber- crombie ascribes serious danger to her baby occurred on the desert north of completely cut off from aid when q cloudburst flooded two channels of dry river and isolated it's members on an island entirely devoid of shelter
 For six hours the waters ragged. while a cold, biting wind swept across the desert with the sting of a whip. There was no going forward nor back, so the party settled down inside their Chevrolet and waited until the torrent had receded, when progress toward the coast and better touring conditions was resumed.
 'The Sedan kept US entirely warm" said Mrs. Abercrombie. Outside, in the wind. it was freezing and had we been forced to face the gales, I am sure my boy, who is extremely delicate, would have suffered severely. As it was, we did not even have to resort to our few robes, for the enclosed feat ures of the car warded off the discom- fort in every way"
 MT. Abercrombie, who divided driv- ing honors with his wife, reports road conditions anything but favorable on the Arizona and New Mexico deserts. On several occasions it took all his skill as a pilot and the superb power and endurance of the Chevrolet to pull through the deep sands and boggy trails that answered for highways. But in all instances the car overcame the obstacles without faltering and brought the travellers through without serious difficulty.
 The Abercrombies will remain on the coast until spring, visiting points of interest between Tia Juana and Vancouver. After they have seen the sights they vii lreturn to their Texas home in the Chevrolet Sedan, which is none the worse for the severe test it has submitted to on the way west.

GENERAL OFFICE OF
 CUNARD COMPANY
 ID BE OPENED HERE

H. G. De Golia, general manager of the Pacific coast branch of the Cunard Steamship company. with headquarters at San Francisco, has been in town the past two days, look ing over the proposition of establish- ing agencies in this city. Yesterday he announced that a general office would be established in Phoenix, with branches in other of the more import ant towns. W. Ward Davies will be in charge of the general offices.
 Hitherto persons desiring to do busi- ness with the steamship company were compelled to attend to it through the branches at Fl Paso or San Francisco. The business does not consist wholly of the purchase of transportation. but it includes the cashing of money or ders and the transmission of money to Europe.
 Since the war, said AIr. Davies yes- terday, the Cunard company has been running those of its liners left after the submarines were put down. but regular service is being established as rapidly as possible. It is intended soon after the peace settlement is af- fected to put on 30 new boats. It is possible that some of the merchant vessels seized from the Germans will be put into the service.
