One Of the greatest problems ye,
20 be solved by the motor truck

xation behind the machine. Facts
and figures show that thousands of
trucks are now orphans: that n,
the companies which built them
are no longer in business. These
machines soon wear out because ~
Is difficult to get replacement parts
and the upkecp OF the machine ia

ing firms arc less than two years
old. and 22s OF these firms lasted
less than a year.
These facts prove that n reliable
truck manufacturer must make his
product right TO enable him TO
continue in business, says J. Wal.

reported and there are state bonds
of $1O,OO0,OO0. Only about 500, ,00t

in the state, but bank officials ex-
plain this by saying investors held

to purchasing two or three to start the

program for several months.
Those directing the work express
confidence that every phase of the
program will meet with success, de-
spite strong opposition which they say
is being offered by league opponents.

while all water tight compartments

inspection parties were sent into the

When the first tremor of the ship
was felt those below hurried on deck
The faces of some of the recruits
showed alarm while the flagship

Admiral Rodman kept the crew at
