and wrongs as are at present pro-
tccted by law, but will also demand
and practice fair dealing In all bus
mess relations of life.
Many plans of economic readiust-
n1ent. even reconstruction have been
proposed and some are receiving
the test of experiment. The indus
trial order is not a fixed one. and
We may expect changes to occur in
the future as they have occurred in
the past. We have heard with
special interest of the experim its
which have been made in what Is
called Industrial democracy. We
believe that any satisfactory. per
BlAnent plan must be the result OF
free. frank conferences; of sympa-
thetic. voluntary corporation Of the
majority of all those engaged in
any way in any industry. No in
dustrial system can be permanent
in which the methods and conditions
of production and distribution are
unfair to any of the parties con-
ccrned, whether they be employers,
employees, purchasers or ultimate
consumers.
1t should be clearly recognized
that In the present day strife be-
tween wage workers and manuyac-
turers, tho rights OF salried and pro-
fessional workers have frequently
been seltishly ignored, so that un-
trained. unskilied workman are
given better support than highly
trained, experienced accounta nts.
teachers and ministers. No adjust
mont Is fair which fails to provide
that the third party. the innocent
public, shall not suffer because OF
disagreements between capital and
labor. Production and service
should not cease because Of indus
trial disputes. Work should con-
tinue while a fair settlement is be-
ing wrought out
For an admirable statement OF
principles we can attention again to
the Social Greed which was ordered
TO be printed in the Discipline Of
the General Conference OF 1918. The
keynote OF that creed Is struck In
the firts article, which declares.
Equal rights and equal justice OF

DEMAND IF FARMERS
 FOR GDDD R0AIls E
 N)W BEING REALIZED

The automobile, which history pre- sents as the father of the railway loco- motive. was legisIated off the roads of England in 1880. Its wheels were breaking up the highways.
 The situation is quite different to- day. Its wheels are building up the highways-making hard roads of the type that will endure for many gen. srations.
 The passenger car came and the farmer desired good roads as an aid in breaking down his social isolation. Finally, now that the freight truck and the express truck are coming into tneir ewn, the farmer the business man and the ultimate consumer are demanding good roads in many sec lions of the country as means of breaking down the last economic transportation barrier between pro- dUcer and consumer.
 Incidentally 1t may be interesting 10 know that the reason the automo- bile with it's steam engine, outiawed in 1920. was able to come back upon the highways with a gasoline engine three quarters of a century later, was That process had been discovered by which rubber could be vulcanized.

this work. the Firestone ship by truck bureau was established. Today the central bureau at Akron has branches in the 66 largest cities of the United States.
 The branches bring shipper and op- orator together on a basis of mutual profit.
 The central bureau is searching throughout the country for those routes which will support the motor express. It Is finding many of these; routes already have good roads. But also it is finding many routes with good possibilities of profit both to shipper and to truck operator. but without road improvements sufficient to afford fast and economic operation. Tn such cases, when the fact is pointed out, producers and consumers wh3 would benefit most are not slow to de- mand highwas improvement.
 The bureau is finding old commurii- lies brought back to life by the motor truck. For example. by good roads and utfe motor truck Eykesyilis. Mary land, is being put back on the map.

both between wheel rim and built-up highway.
 The development of the giant pneu- matic cord tire and its use by motor express and freight operators, who want 1t because it means quicker trip and more protection to the goods hauled has taken away the last pos sibility that the motor vehicle will in- jure the road more than does any other means of road transportation.
 It was the army's experience in France that caused the American peo< pie to awaken to the possibilities of motor transportation combined with good roads. It was only because of the splendid webwork of hard roads in France that the fighting army of America was fed by wonderfully eff flcient system. These improved roads gave the big army trucks an avenue of approach.
 Meanwhile, in America the railroads found themselves very much over worked. The trucks came to the res cue here as they had on the battle sront. They relieved the railroads by carrying freight long distances in those sections of the country where there was need and stretches of good high way could be connected up. Because speed was highly essential and demand required even the gleanings of produc- ton, they also acted as feeders of the railroads.
 Patriotic civic agencies aided the ef- ficient functioning of the motor truck during this period by keeping shipper in touch with truck operator.
 After the war it became apparent that if motor truck transport was to attain it's real development and per- form it's real service in the national scheme of transportation, in a perma- nent way, it must be guided along sound business lines. and placed on d sound business footing. To assist in

 As the car is rolled onto A runway it is stopped between two platforms running it's length. A man on each of these platforms attacks the top with air hose and brushes. Underneath the car, water is turned into two spray pipes running the cars length, and this loosens the accumulation of mud and grease.
 Another car length brings the ma chine to the body washers, who from either side attack body and lenders.
 The last six minute trick on the runway is in the hands of the chamois and vacuum men, who dust cushions and upholstery and inside the top and dry the body with the chanois.

lotment is entirely too small, especial ly so in the case of the Royal Cord, and the only way to get action was to visit western headquarters at San Francisco. Good results were ob- tained, as the Phoenix branch has been promised at least two large shipments immediately and regular shipments to follow. Whatever happens, Mr. Miller has been assured that the factory will take care of Arizona in preference to other states.
