BIG CAR COMFORT IS CLAIMED
Willys-Overland Asserts Springs Are Greatest Improvement ill Motor Cars Since Pneumatic Tires,

Overland I, the new car of light weight construction for which the pub lie has been waiting since it's introduc- tion was first rumored at the autOmo- bile shows about two years ago, was placed on exhibition in Prescott today at the Overland salesrooms of the Dix ie Motor Co.,, 106 w. Main St.
 The company's dealers, from Maine to California, and from Washington to Florida have on display one or more of the new models described as emb0d- ying 'the greatest improvement in rid ing comfort since the introduction of pneumatic tires"
 New Type of Springs
 This improvement is the use of three point suspension springs.
 The luxurious riding comfort these springs furnish the car was immediate ly understood and appreciated. It is this feature which gives ii the new Overland car, designed for light weight, that degree of riding comfort and se- curity hitherto possible only in high priced, heavier cars.
 But this is only one of many feat ures in Overland which back the Willys-Oevrland Company's claim to success in giving the public "a new standard of riding comfort
 Ideals Guide Design,
 Guiding the development of this re- markable new car was MT. Willys' ideal of motor car which would combine with the economy of light weight all the comfortable riding qualities and the stamina of the heavy and expen- sive automobiles. He proposed a car of buiIt-in quality which would free the owner from all possible up-keep expenses.
 Without emphasizing such features as an unusually attractive appear ance. the all-steel body with an oven baked enamel finish and other interest ing details, it may be said that motor ing interest centers in four new and distinctive features of Overland f. These features, each worth the motor ist's study, are:
 Springbase, Not Wheelbase.
 First, of course, the three-point can tilever spring suspension. The springs on Overland extend fifteen inches from point on the chassis beyond the aXels at front and rear, giving wide diagonal shape to the springs The car has thus an actual springbase of 130I inches, although the car wheelbase it. self is 100 inches. Each spring fleXi- bly, responds to it's task of keeping the body and passengers riding on con stantly even keel. Bobbing, sidesway, and lurching are materially lessened The result is a roomy, easy riding car on a new type of springs so designed as to absrob road shocks from the worst of pavements or roads. The Willys- Overland engineers make the unusual claim of having produced car that rides well on any road.
 Second-Economy. The new springs so protect the car from road shock as to make possible much lighter weight and hence a great saving in fuel and fires. Furthermore, the car is so sim ple and accessible that costs of up keep and repairs must be greatly re- duced. Yet the cars parts have a pro tected accessibility-a big factor in up keep. The car is assembled from five units only. The chassis is clear of all involved mechanism. The entire as

sembly requires only 90 bolts. The en- zine is remarkably high grade, thoroughly o-the-minute power plant, compact and simple The neat ness and cleanness of design bespeak the ready accessibility to all parts.
 New Quality Standard.
 Third-Quality. Specifications indi- cate that the Overland 4 has been built in each part of the finest quality steels and steel-alloys. The cars parts have been machined within the closest poss- ible limits, permitting a quality of con struction equal to that of handmade product. Inspection starts at the steel mills where the company has stationed expert metal-lurgists to test every heat of steel, and the inspection ends only with the owners driving the car away. The stock reaching the factory is thus all first grade through many inspec- tions. This itself is a new feature in automobile construction. The body is all-Steel with an oven-baked enamel finish. The construction is simple and the balance of part to part is unusual ly fine The car has been designed light weight.

HIS INFERENCE

Little Benjamin, accompanied by his governess, was out for his morn ing stroll when they passed a street where load of straw had been scat tered in front of house in which there had been a serious illness.
 "Mias Teachem, why have they scat tered all this straw about here?" asked Benjamin.
 "Well," replied the good lady, "a little baby come to Mrs. Jones last night"
 My goodness" exclaimed Benja- min, "but it was well packed.

The car has a Streamline body which is entirely constructed of steel with slanting windshield. The fullcrowned lenders are of heavy sheet steel. The running boards are covered with lin oleum, aluminium bound. The body and chassis are finished in hard baked enamel. The fittings are nickel and polished aluminium.
 The car is equipped with an Auto Lite two-unit starting and lighting system, headlights with dinner, dash ter electric horn, spare tire carrier. and tail-lights, a magnetic speedome- extra rim, complete set of tools, tire repair kit, jack and pump. The tires are mounted on demountable rims.

farmers, laborers, merchants, and
men of moderate means.
-On the other hand, Kansas, which
has infinitely greater wealth, in the
past three years has contributed less
than $500 to the Kansas organiza-
ton. To offset this, the Townley agi-
tators, in a few months this year, have
separated the farmers of one Kansas
county from over $4,000; and from
the entire state. have taken out over a
half million dollars.
The Nonpartisan League has or
ganized Kansas labor; it also claims
over 10000 farmer members, which
means that Townley Will hold the ball
ance of power in Kansas politics in
1920; and this spells state ownership
and state socialism, as in North Da-
kota: 1t means that the banking, pub
fishing. mercantile. milling. and grain
businesses will be attacked, as in Da-

today that Cocker had been arrested
at Dodge City on a white slavery
charge PLACED against him by Mrs.
Kennedy. Undersheriff Bob Miller left
today at noon for Dodge City where
he will take Cocker into custody and
bring him to Topeka for trial.
Mrs. Kennedy told county officials
that she was attracted by an adver-
tisement in a morning paper during
the summer in which Cocker asked
for a woman to cook for ten harvest
hands. The high cost of living was
hitting her husband. a stenographer,
severe blows at the time and they de-
cided that she should answer the ad-
vertisement.
my husband wrote the first two
letters" said Mrs. Kennedy. but 1
signed them. Cookers offer was
tempting but when 1 said my husband
not find employment for him."
Cocker asked many pertinent ques-
tions in a rather protracted corre-
spondence. Mrs. Kennedy asserted to-
a description of the color of her hair,
the color of her eyes and the plans and
specifications of her figure, in general,
Mrs. Kennedy asserted.
He also wanted to know the clothes
would be wearing when I arrived"
and told me to go to Larned. where he
would meet me and sent me money
for my railroad fare. He instructed
me 10 go to a; certain hotel if he failed
to meet me.
when 1 arrived there at noon
there was no one at the station. So l
went to the hotel. The clerk assured
me that he knew Cocker well and
gave me a room.

afternoon by Cocker entering the
room''
Then Mrs. Kennedy described an
argument with Cocker, who. she
swears, made indecent advances at
that time and during the night which.
she claimed, she was obliged to spend

his punishment should equal the trou-

The warrant was issued several
months ago but Cocker was not ap
pretended until Sunday. Mrs. Ken
nedy is 80 years of age.
