AN INDUSTRIAL kRMISTICE
 FOR AMERICA IS URGED
Attorney General Palmer Would Thus Permit the Solution of the Present
 Economic Problem.

Freeport. Pa, Sept 20.-An absolute industrial armistice for six months was urged by Attorney General Pal mer here today to permit the solution Of economic problems arising out of the changes wrought by war.
 Such a period of freedom from un- rest, he declared, would result soon in increased production which would bring about an era of 'easier living and better times for all. On the oth- CT hand, the attorney general warned selfish demands by any one class can not stimulated the national prosperity nor permanently benefit even those ob- taining such demands by force. He strongly discountenanced strikes.
 Labor is asking larger share of the joint product of money and labor and there is much in the claim" he said but the chance of getting it is not advanced, nor the justice of it ,aore widely recognized by the refusal of labor to produce"
 The attorney generals address was delivered at reunion of the 18th regi- ment of Pennsylvania, volunteers. He said that. although many problems beset mems minds in these days of reconstruction, there is none which cannot be worked but in the general interest" in a government where the people are the only rulers.
 But. unless we shall be satisfied With that which is for the general in t4rest." he continued. "and do not in sist upon that winch is in our oWl arlicular interest, there will be trou- Ele and delay in the settlement. Ii tien could learn to be patient under conditions which have resulted iron the world war, until a more accurate estimate of the possibilities of the sit uatiol can be made, our problems would sooner be solved, but if impa tience and selfiShness shall rule, an( immediate forceful or direct action bt taken, it is perfectly obvious tha nothing but disorder and delay cal result.
 'The crying need of the world jus now is for peace, and not politica peace between governments alone, bu industrial peace among men also Th' things for which men fight are neve1 settled while the war Is on.

So Says English War Correspondent
Reeounting Experiences In
Holy Land.
So Says English War Correspondent

W. T. Massey, noted British Jour-
nalist, now recording the Prince of
Wales Tour through Canada and the
United States, for the London Daily
Telegraph, of London, England, was
Official War Correspondent with the
English Army-under General Allen
by-which wrested the Holy Land
and Syria from the Turks.
When telling Of his experiences, he
says that he used Ford in many
Journey from Beersheba to Jerusalem
and to Nazareth, Damascus and
Alepp," and that "in Allenby's final
push, this trusty old car took me
more than 1000 miles in six weeks
and | believe within one year it trav-
eled over 10000 miles in country
where reads are few, and these the
worst in the world"
'In the Sinai country it is very
sandy and it is quite common sight
to see a Ford running along with
two rolls of wire netting secured to
the foot boards. When the car gets
to a place where the sand is impass-
able, the driver unrolls the netting
over the roadway and thus an easily
passable wire road is constructed; in
fact in some parts of the country
permanent wire roads have been
made and over these the car runs
along easily and smoothly, at thirty
miles an hour"
Mr.. Massey also stated that the
Ford played no small part in helping
''to deliver the Holy Land and Syria
from the Turks" and that his "old
1880" Ford was the most wonderful
car in the war;. So highly does he
regard the merits of the Ford car
that he has asked permission to adj
dress the men of the Ford factory,
who make Ford cars, to tell them his
experiences and thank them for their
good work in building such reliable
motor cars. He expects to visit the
Ford factory on the day the Prince
Of Wales visits Windsor.
