SEES LIFE OF JEWRY IN EU-

crisis in it's history. Five years of
war have decimated the Jewish
population throughout Eastern Eu-
rope, and the ebb and flow of fight
ing in Poland, Austria, Czechoslo-
.vakia, and Russia have virtually
wiped out the younger generation
of men. The only hope for the
children of Israel is in the Jews of
America who are still physically
and financially sound and whose
younger generation has not suffered
so terribly"
This was the message given
through the American Jewish Relief
Committee to the 100000 Jews
in the United States by Dr. Hahn
I. Davis, a Chicago alienist and
Major in the American Red Cross
Commission to Poland, who is the
first American to return to New
York with a personal account OF
conditions in that country. At the
McAlpin Hotel yesterday DR.. Davis
said:
eff the Jews of America could
see the Jewish suffering that | have
seen they could not sit down to
another meal until they had pledged
the last farthing they could give to
the relief of their fellows who are
dying like flies in Warsaw, Pinsk,
Brest- Litovsk, and other parts of
the new Poland. Jews in America
have butter on their bread, but
thousands of Polish Jews have
neither seen nor eaten bread for
months.
"In Warsaw I visited the largest
Jewish hospital. 1t had 700 beds
and was trying to care for 100 pa
tents virtually without medicines
or disinfectants of any kind. There
was no coal to warm water tor
bathing the patients. While | was
there Jewish baby was born. The
mother had had no food for four
days. Mothers in this country can
imagine the anguish of that mother
who gave life to her child only to
know it must starve to death.

and in every city, town, and village
emaciated Jewish children piteously
cried for bread Poland is purga-
tory, and in it human beings are
suffering unreliable fortunes. Back
of it all is the fact that world Jewry
has been dealt blow from which it

The sailing of the Lake CRANKY not

that not only is the rate cheaper buc

FAMOUS COMEDIAN RIDES
ON AUTOGRAPHED TIRES

The happy originality Of Fred
Stone. the famous comedian, is car
ried even beyond his work on the
stage. Some time ago. during a
visit at the plant of the Pennsyl-
vania Rubber Company. at Jean
nette, makers of the famous
Vacuum Cup tires. he conceived the
idea of having a set of these tires
made bearing his autograph worked
in rubber on the sides. His idea
was SO innovative. that General
Manager. Seneca G. Lewis. immedi-
ately set his experts to work on II.
with the result that such tires were
successfully evolved. On the Vac
uum Cup Cord tires which he re-
Gently purchased. the Jet black
tread and sidewall make the inim-
liable signature Of the comedian.
in bright red rubber. stand out in
striking relief.
The tires. while designed primar-
lily as a personal touch. prove even
more. The name cannot be de-
stroyed without mutilating the tire
to considerable extent, and thus
proves an effective safeguard
against theft.
Mr.. Stone has been a user of
Vacuum Cup tires for a number of
years. and SO enthusiastic has been
his advocacy of their goodness anu
wearing qualities. that many prom
inent personages of his profession
have upon his recommen nd a ton,
given them q trial. to their unvary-
ing satisfaction.

broken the portion which has faiIen
on may have made It's way down be-
tween the piston and cylinder, where
1t win cause scoring Of the metal.
This possibility should be taken into
consideration. though more often the
broken piece will blow out with the
exhaust.
The market at the present time Is
flooded with auxiliary air and moisture
injecting devices. some of which are
good and some bad. The moisture IN
3ecting devices will in most cases pre-
vent the formation of carbon on the
cylinder walls. but they are not likely
to remove carbon already formed.
although this claim is made for them.
The air devices are practically useless,
unless the owner Is absolutely certain
that the air range Of this carburefer
Is insufficient. IL the adjustment all
ready on the carbureter is capable OF
supplying more air. and auxiliary air
device is waste of money.
Use of Gaskets-
Oil joints should be fitted with gas
kets made of wrapping paper. while
water joints should have asbestos gas
kcts coated with graphite. Hot gas
joints on the other hand should have
copper covered asbestos and dry gas
joints call for coated asbestos.
Cone Clutch Slippage.
In the absence of Fuller's earth. or
dinary talcum powder may be used 10
stop cone clutch slippage. Sprinkle the
talcum over the surface of the leather
OF fabric after having first cleaned the
surface with gasolene.
Cleaning the Car.
The body of the car should be clean
ed with CASTLE soap and water. Mud
should not be rubbed of. but rather
should be washed off by flowing a
gentle stream of water over the spot.
This floats the mud OF without in
tCry to the polished surface. II mud
is permitted to remain on a new BODY
until it dries hard il almost always
leaves a spot. consequently removal
should be immediate. II spots of road

application OF kerosene. Be careful
not to rub them too much. The top
should not be cleaned with gasolene or
similar LIQUIDS. Soap suds and water
should be used inside and out. For
the upholstery a little nnseed oil on q
piece of cloth rubbed over IL win work
wonders.
Storage Bsttery Msuntias.
II the storage battery is not secured
tightly in its place the vibration and
jolts OF ordinary travel may very pos
sibly break some Of the Jars.
Water In Crankcase OIL
Few motorists realize that a COM
paratiyely large quantity Of water
gradually accumuintes In the crank
case. mixing with the oil and forming
an emulsion which has impaired iu-
bricating qualities. This accumuia-
tion of water Is more pronounced In
winter than in summer. and 10 found
to a greater extent as the number OF
cylinders increase. This brings out
the importance Of changing the oil
every 1000 miles. and for the best
irbricating results every 500 miles, In
which case the old oil may be run
through a chamois skin to remove
the water, after which II may be used
again.
Carbureter Ills.
In many cars water and dirt In
the fuel system cause almost endless
trouble. which may very likely be at
tributed to the engine proper. Dirt
will clog the minute crevice in the
carbureter. causing numerous peculiar
symptoms Of trouble to appear. Many
cars have no provision. except a metal
strainer in the tank. for preventing
the entrance Of dirt into the fuel sys-
tenn 1t is suggested that the owners
OF cars so equipped ut a trap In the
gasoline line. All the larger manu-
factorers Of carbureters have devices
OF this kind.

Delegates Will Gather for

the delegation OF FIVE sent to the
churches Of the world by the Epls-
copal Church of this country. expec,s
the preliminary conference Of the
churches for a world union will be
held at The Hague within a year.
The first meeting at The Hague
said Bishop Anderson. will be tor
the purpose OF organization for a
more formal world conference. At
the world conference the churches
will consider their differences as
well as agreements. in the hope that
thereby a step may be taken to-
ward a closer union.
AT time when all the nations
Of the world with all their diverse
interests seriously contemplate es-
tablishment of a league of nations
the churches of the world, owing
common allegiance. can seriously
consider the establishment of closer
common fellowship. With the one
exception of the Roman Catholic
Church. we have been assured, of the
cooperation of all the churches
whose prelates we have met"
Bishop Anderson said the delega-
tion had visited ConstantinopIe
Egypt, Athens, Smyrna. Sofia, Buch-
Arrest and Belgrade in the Balkan
countries, and Norway and Sweden.

and Germany, but we expect to get
in touch with churches of those
countries at the earliest opportu-

This extra expense is necessary be-
cause Of the number OF landings less
than carload shipments received at

riers after the material leaves the
shipping department This increased
| protection and expense can be great.
ly reduced II shipments are made BY

| tor trucks, instead of by rail, a great
amount of clerical work in the form
of extra bookkeeping. billing, etc, Is
eliminated. Where extra packing is
necessary extra room Is required for
the boxing department. Then IL rail-
way freight shipments are delayed
there Is the additional trouble of
tracing them. IL tbe shipment ar
rives in damaged condition there Is
the further difficulty of collecting
from the railroad company.
Contrasted to this Is the example
of Marshall Field a Company. who
guarantee to make delivery within

transportation system organized.
Boxing often carries from 10 per
cent to 20 per cent of its weight in

pany estimates that by the use Of

ers will take into account all the
various costs and charges which are
part Of true freight Transportation
costs. they will snd that motor
trucks can be operated successfully
and economically in competition
with railways for distances between
ten and 125 miles.
In figuring the cost OF operating
trucks there are many faulty sys-
TENS in use. These systems over
look many little items which fnd
their way into the expense account
and often cause considerable loss
to the operator who overlooks them

tBN MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WtRsl
New York, March President
Wilson, in statement published in
today's issue of Right About" the of
ficial publication of dcharkation hos
pital number 8 of this city, declared
that America would not forget the
sacrifices that American soldiers
wounded in France had made and that
their wounds are the noblest badges
of honor any man has ever worn.
The statement was sent to the maga-
zine last night just after the presi-
dent had delivered his opera house ad-
dress.
Il could tell YOU he wrote, what
the sacrifices you have made have
meant to the world could tell you
what history for all time to come will
say of you and the sufferings you have
experienced on your great crusade,
But these things other men will tell
you.
II prefer to remind you that the
wounds you bear are the noblest
worn. that they eXalt you to SUI
preme place in the minds and hearts
of your countrymen and of all the
world, | prefer to assure you that
America realizes that she has no more
solemn obligations, no more patriotic
duty than to express in practical terms
the gratitude that every American
man, woman and child--feels fol
every one of you,
