1t has come to be Recognized that
the proposition Of communism as ap-

the family is the most accursed her

it strikes at the very root Of civiliza-

the abolition Of the family. He was
one of Germany's great guides. Said

PRICE FIXING Is ENDED.
Resignation of Members of Industrial
Board Is Accepted.

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-The gov
eminent S price sterilization program.
initiated by Secretary of Commerce
Redfeld, is at an end. The secretary
announced yesterday the acceptance of
the resignation of Chairman George n.
Peek and the full membership of the
industrial board. This action followed
the declaration by Director General
Hines that he was in effect through with
the board and would proceed to buy
steel products by competitive bids.
The industrial board was created by
the president nearly two months ago to
bring a lower level of prices in the
United States and to stabilize them at
a point which would encourage buying
and bring quick industrial and economic
adjustment to peace conditions. Steel
prices were taken up first and a price
schedule was agreed on between the
board and representatives of the Iron
and Steel institute. Director General
Hines demurred at these prices, de-
clarlng they were too high and refusing
to buy.
The controversy became heated and
divided the President s cabinet. The
President was appealed to in Paris and
at his suggestion another effort to OBJ
tain an agreement was made This
definitely failed in New York yesterday
when representatives of the admins
tration and the steel interests could not

ESSEX QUALITIES NOT
COMPARABLE TO ANY CAR

No other car is like the Essex in degree
of beauty, comfort, performance or endur-
ance. Other cars closely match it in some of
these particulars. But those who attempt
to describe the Essex use dozen different
wellknown makes for comparison.
It's lightness and cost are compared to the
cars best known for their class. Perform
ance comparisons go into the high-priced
car field Essex speed, Essex acceleration
and Essex hill climbing are almost invari-
ably stated in terms of such performance
as are made by cars best known in those
particulars.
The finest and costliest closed cars are re-
ferred to as being the nearest to Essex in
riding quality.
Cars that have proved their leadership in
the field Of endurance are the standard by
which the long life of the Essex is mea-
sured.
Get acquainted with the Essex Let us
prove to your satisfaction that the Essex is
all other people say it is.

Advertise the Essex

We have found no way to describe the Els
sex that is half sol impressive as an actual
ride in the car. ~
The Essex was announced with the state
ment that it was to be advertised by those
who would ride in it. The car would not be
advertised as other cars have been adver-
tised
No claims would be made for it. People
were asked to go see it-take ride, and we
would rely upon its quality to speak for
itself
You know how the Essex has won its
place by what people are saying about it.
On the first day the Essex was shown
January 16th-close to five thousand people
in all parts of the country responded to the
invitation to ride in the Essex

The response was large because the Essex

a few had been permitted to ride in it up to
that time.
Now it is known in every section.

realize the value of low first cost, economi-t
