BURLESON TELLS
WHY GALLIVAN is
OPPOSING HIM

Washington, June 20.-Postmaster
General Burleson in letter today to
Representative Buchanan, democrat.
of Texas. declared that ''the hostile
feeling of Representative Gallivan,
democrat, of Massa chusetts, VINO tn II
speech in the house yesterday said
Mr.. RurIeson should be removed as
postmaster general was due to the
discontinuance of the pneumatic mail
tube service in Boston as recommen-
ded by Postmaster General Burleson
THE real reason of Representative
Gallavan's resentment and rage" the
postmaster general said could be
found in the Congressional Record
which Mr.. BurIeson cited as showing
that Mr.. GaIlivan had been owner of
eighty shares of pneumatic tube
Stock Mr. GaIlivan, in a speech in
January, 1917, told the house he had
bought tube stock before he came to
congress, lost on il and sold out.
IT feel honored by, the disap approba-
tion of such a man." wrote Mr.. Burle-
son.

this country, the apex of which no man
could predict" Robert NJ. Woolley, mem
ber of the interstate commerce commits
sion, in an address here today before the
annual convention of the Virginia Bank
ers' association.
Owing to the cut in railroad revenues
caused by diminishing traffic during the
readjustment period and other conditions.
said Mr.. Woolley. the interstate COM
merce commission would be forced to
grant an increase in rates if the roads
were returned to permit them a fair rev.

whether operation of the roads was re-

Mr.. woolley. Ito take care of any deficit
from carrier operations out Of the ma
ticnal treasury, whose Golfers are replea-

can best be borne, than to force by their
return an increase in rates?"
The opinion is held by railroad officials
generally, said Mr.. Woolley, that a rate
increase of at least 80 per cent would
he necessary upon return of the roads.
This, he declared, would mean another
swing through the vicious circle OF
mounting prices, estimating that suoh
rate advance would be reflected -four
fold in the price of finished comm oditiHs
to the consumer. At the end of the cir
cle," he said, when labor and raw ma
terial costs had been raised to a level
commensurate with the rate advance, the
railroads would find themselves in ex-
actly the same position as before the ad-
vance and the interstate commerce COM
mission, upon a showing of inadequate
revenues by the railroads, must again
authorize an increase in rates. This pro-
cess. he said, would ultimately render
American industries powerless to COM
pete with those of European countries
once they were restored to normal.
Bearing in mind" Mr.. wooIley con-
Guided, that the three principal elements
IN the cost Of the finished product are the
price of the raw material, the price OF

dian name for Beautiful Waters"
wil¬ be launched this morning as

fabricated steel vessels to have been
put over at the plant, is expected to
be ready for sea by the first of July

Capt. Bergren of Salvation
Army is Making Effort to
Add Hostel to L o c a |
Home.
MATTER IS PLACED
BEFORE OFFICIALS
Construction Work On
Home is Expected to
Start Soon and Be Com
pleted BY January /.

If efforts that are being made by
Capt. Bergren of the Salvation Army
here are successful Pensacola will
have a Salvation Army home and
hostel in connection Herewith, the
joint building to cost approximately
$4,000 instead of the $25,0O0 home
building originally planned.
Capt Bergren, realizing the import :
ance to Pensacola of such a building,
with a hostel in connection, such as
has been provided in many cities at
or near army posts, has taken the
the Salvation Army with the result
that 1t is expected that special man
of the service will be sent here with
in a few days to survey the situation.
The site tentatively selected for the
home is that at the corner of Zarra-
gossa and jefferson streets, just
across the street from the Escambia
county building and the city hall AMI
on the south of the Plaza. This Sc
lection, of course is yet to be approved
by head officials.
The Salvation Army, in the United
States, has a fund provided as the
result of a big joint drive with other
organiza ations including the Y. NJ. c. A.
and knights OF Columbus during TIE
early days of the war, which it is be-
lieved can be drawn for such a hostel
as is contemplated by Capt. Bergren
here, especially in view of the location
here of the naval. air station and forts
tRarrancas and Pickens, permanent
posts of the army and navy and IN
view of the great number of service
men who would be served at such a
hostel
Whether the captain succeeds or
fails in his worthy efforts to make the
building a $50 900 institution or wheth-
er he will be confined to the $25, zoo
provided for this point as n result of
the success of the recent home service
fund drive. it is expected that work
will be commenced at a not far dis
tant date as it is understood to be
the intention of the Salvationists to
have the building completed by tie
by the first of January next

Attorney General Sharply
Denounces His Accusers
AS Being Aligned With
Enemy Aliens.
TARIFF REVISION
BEGINS IN JULY
Ways and Means Commit
tee Heard German Dyes
Are Seeking Admission
AS Swiss Products.

Washington, June 2o-Attorney
General Palmer, at the first public
hearing in the fight to prevent con-
firmatfon by the senate or his a.
pointment, turned sharply today upon
has accusers and boldly charged that
they were aligned with German in
terests in a concerted attempt to dis
credit his administration as alien
property custodian.
During the year and half he was
in charge of that office, Palmer de-
clared, he was denounced by every
enemy alien and every friend and at
torney of every enemy alien in this
country, and in Berlin he was charac-
terized as the official American pick
pocket. =
Every friend of the forty thousand
aliens whose property had been seized
were attacking nm. the attorney gem
eral said, because his organization nau
seized enemy property and captured
the German industrial army in the
United States.
1t would be shown, he told the COM
mittee, that the particular charges
lodged against him were not based on
the ground that he sold enemy plants
at too low a price, but that he sold
them to Americans, who had turned
them to profitable account.
The bitter feeling that broke at the
beginning remained to the end, the
meeting closing abruptly and in dis
order, with the announcement by
Chairman Dillingham; that another
session would be held tomorrow TO uS-
termine further procedure and sum-
mon witnesses asked for by the COM
plainants. There was strong belief
at the capitol tonight that no further
hearings of consequence would 20
held and the committee would recv.~-
mend confirmation of Palmer's nomi-
nation.

THE Car of the Future will be
a LIGHTWEIGHT car!

spring suspension-not upon the dead weight of
the Car. A bicycle weighing twenty-five pounds
carries man that weighs one hundred and
eighty pounds-and the bicycle holds the road.
The car of the future will be better propoftioned
and better balanced; will have more refine
ments, greater flexbility, quicker acceleration
and longer life.
The coming of the lightweight Car will greatly
increase the number of pleasure cars in service.
And then the lightweight truck, in the making
of which is recog: ized the principle that for
every pound of "unsprung" weight saved, five
pounds or more of sprung weight can be added
the truck that will carry five tons burden for
the same gas and tire expense that now carries
two tons burden-that truck will help to reduce
the cost of living.
Civilization depends upon transportation.
To decrease the burden of transportation is to
increase the progress of civilization.
The car-and the truck-which best serves the
greatest good of the creates, number-the car
that will be made in Am~I lca-the car that will
conquer the world-The Car of the Future
will be Light-weight Carl!

average at least thirty miles per gallon of gaso-
line-at least twenty thousand miles on set of
tires. 1t will be better and differently built
will have more beauty of design and workman

AS each part of the Car is lightened, other parts
engine, body, Frame axles and wheels-can
be made lighter, and then the process of re-
ducing weight will begin all over again-until
finally the perfect lightweight Car is here.
More than six million cars and trucks were regis
tered to June 1st, 1919. More than million cars
were scrapped last year! Three years is the
life of the average car Think of the public
economy to be effected by reducing the weight
of cars and trucks by two-thirds in
the saving of gasoline and tires and in the
longer and more service-full life of such a Car.
Not always will the public buy anything that
runs. The cost of hauling unnecessary car
weight, cost of upkeep rather than first cost,
will be the prime consideration. Few men
even those who canafford new Car every year
are Indifferent to costs of tires and gasoline.
