TO see them depart, but Will be glad to
learn that in their new home they are
having many of the comforts which
make life's pathway more easy.
Mr.. L. A. Anderson, of the Ander-
SON. Hruska Co., has accepted the joint
agency with Mr.. Raymond as repre-
sentatives in the state of Indiana for
the Highway Trailer Co. of this city.
Mr.. Anderson will not withdraw from
the old firm, however, his business GO
ing on in his absence. His family will
also continue to reside here Mr.. An
1erson expects to leave about the 18th
of October, if conditions in the steel
industry ease up by that time. Mr..
Anderson has been in Edgerton since
April, 1911, and has built up good
business here. He feels, however, that
the trailer proposition is of sufficient
Importance to make it right for him to
lend his energies to push it in the ter
ritory assigned to him and Mr.. Ray
mond. Mr.. Anderson returned last
Saturday from trip to western North
Dakota. On his return he called at
Detroit, Mimi, where Mr.. Louis Bols-
tad, formerly of East Koshkonong and

As an immediate step towards re-

While the allied and associated governments recognize that the resources of Ger many are not adequate, after taking into account permanent diminution of such resources which will result from other treaty claims to make com
 piete reparation for all such loss and damag ge, they require her to make compensation for all damages caused to civilians under seven main cate gories: s:-(a) Damages by personal in-
 jury to civilians caused by acts of war, directly or indirectly. (b) Dam- age caused to civilians by acts of cruelty ordered by the enemy, and to civilians in the occupied territory.

CAR FEE SYSTEM IS
QUITE COMPLICATED
Amount Collected for Various
Vehicles Is Not Uniform.
Confusion Caused by Widely Varying
Requirements for Registration or
Licensing of chauffeurs, Own
crs and Dealers.

The amount of fees collected per
car for either pleasure or commercial
vehicles is as yet far from uniform and
is still further complicated by the
widely varying requirements for the
registration or licensing of chaffeurs,
owners, operators, dealers, etc. Thus,
IL the total gross registration and
license revenues be used as basis OF
revenue, and the total automobile
trucks and vehicles as a basis for
motorcars, 1t is found that for the
entire United States the average fee
per car was $8.37. On the same basis
the state of New Hampshire received
In 1918 a gross revenue of $20.52 for
each motorcar, while Minnesota re-
celved only about $1.75 annually for
each car, as the registration in that
state is for three-year period.
In most states motorcars are taxed
as personal property In addition to
the required registration fees. In
Delaware, IDAHO Iowa, Michigan, New
York, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South
Carolina, Pennsylvania and Vermont
registration fees are in lieu Of all other
taxes. Therefore, In making any COM
parsons In fees as between the several
states, this fact should be borne In
mind.

regular road surface, whereas the body
work Is very much less free to bend
and give. This gives rise to slight rub
bling at various places where the frame
is In contact with the body stills, and
since these points of free contact are
not fabricated squeaks result. The
remedy is to insulate the body from
the frame with thick leather straps or
washers, so placed as to be held in pc.
sition by the bolts securing the two.
In like manner the filler board used
with some types of windshield to
make it conform with the outline of

squeaking by the insertion of strip

WOMEN TO BATTLE HI.cosr
Palmer Asks Housewives to Assist IN
lowering High Prices.

Washington. Attorney General
Palmer and his official associates in
the fight on the high cost of living
have determined to enlist the aid Of
the women of America.
BY appealing to the comptrolers Of
household finances throughout the
country, it is hoped to inaugurate the
epoch of real economy which will off
set the "buy now propaganda Of
trades people.
Furthermore, an attempt will be
made to discourage the frequent
changes in styles dictated by the max
ers of women's apparel and thereby
effect a saving in clothes.
Another important decision taken al
the meeting was to release more sur
plus supplies held by the government
if it can be done without embarrass
ment to the departments involved.
Secretaries Baker and Daniels and
Chairman John Barton Payne of the
shipping board, were invited to the
conference for the first time for that
purpose.
