Richard Fischer, in an address,
said the Germans confidence in Will
son had been shamefully abused, and
that the government would not sign
the treaty The demonstrators then
surged toward the Hotel Adlon, hoot
ing, jeering and shouting robbers"
The tumultous scene lasted for half
hour.
Strongest opposition to the treaty
seems to be in the eastern provinces,
especially in West Prussia and East
Prussia. Thousands of telegrams
received here from those districts
threaten armed resistance if the gov
ernment accepts the article which
would separate the purely German
territory in East Prussia. Radicals
declare that the treaty must be
signed and that the world socialists
will revise the terms later.
Commercial industrial leaders
consider the terms as more than
maximum of the allies expected and
that the latter consequently will be
willing to bargain with Wilson in the
role of bargainer. Open opposition
of the treaty by the government as
expressed by Scheidemann and others
is supplemented by statements of
various Germans.
DIR. Stressman declared the terms
mean slavery and loss of independ-
ence, and said they are mockery of
Wilson's principles, on which basis
Germany surrendered. He declared:
ut should be the life task of every
German to revenge this unprecedent,
ed deception"
Despite the present widespread
and spectacular campaign against
signing the treaty, careful inquiries
among factional leaders, convinced
the correspondents that Germany
will accept the terms when the time
comes for the "show down.

\ PPARENTLY the Semmes Motor Line
Inc, is cashing in on practically all of
the advantages that Goodyear Cord Pneu-
matics can give their big busses.
We wish to call your attention to five
ways in which the big Goodyear Cords have
meant economy and better service.
First, they have saved time by allowing
faster speeds without injury to the truck.
Second, because of their smooth rolling

qualities they have reduced gasoline ex-
pense 80 per cent.
Third by their cushioning they have
saved large amount in repair expense and
truck depreciation
Fourth, they have given excellent mile
age-one set going over $4,000 miles.
Fifth, they have provided riding COM
fort which solid tires cannot give.
From this it is not hard to imagine the
protection and saving that these pneu-
mates would afford to fragile, breakable

niture and the like.
But to add further to the advantages of
these tires we are prepared to inspect them
from time to time without cost to you-and
to check all possible sources of unusual
tire wear
In total, this is the kind of satisfaction
that you want from the truck tires that
you use-it is the kind of satisfaction that

GRANT JUSTICE,
HUGHES POLICY
No Machinery For This Pro-
vided, He Declares in His
Pittsburgh Address
By Associated Press.

Pittsburgh, Nov. 5.-Machinery
for industrial justice which would
prevent the interruption of services
essential to the community was ad-
vocated last night by Charles E
Hughes in an address on THE Anti.
dote for Bolshevism" at the Worlds
Christian Citizenship Conference.
Referring to public servants
transportation and basic industries
he said:
IF the community provided just
means for the settlement of COM
plants and for the redress of wrongs
which might be suffered by those
engaged in these essential activi-
ties. we should have right to pre-
vent concerted attempt, that is
through any sort of mbination, to
hold up the community and enforce
demands under threat of widespread
suffering and want"
Favors Collective Bargaining
For industrial activity outside the
essential services he urged collective
bargaining with decisions binding in
law. ......,.
we have made little proress in
providing the machinery for indus
trial justice, and in this respect we
are still uncivilized. We are still at
the stage corresponding to that of
trlal by battle and trial by ordeal
in the early law. But we cannot go
on indefinitely in this way.
Il believein the recognition of the
right of collective bargaining on
the part of labor through represen-
tatives of their own choosing. The
qualification may be made that these
should be proper representatives and
not those who aim at the demorali-
zation of our industrial life and use
labor disputes, as means to pro-
mote sinister designs
Mr.. Hughes favored sharing of ex-
cess profits with labor but opposed
cooperative management, saying:
AS labor will not and cannot take
the risk of losses there should be
reserves out of profits for contingen-
cies. After fair wages have been
paid. fair return made to invested
capital and contingencies provided
for in the interest of the continuity
of the enterprise. it is just that ex-
cess profits should be distributed on
some reasonable basis among all
who have produced them, investors,
managers and all other workers.

OAKLAND SEDAN
PROVESPOPULAR
Closed Models Being Used
During the Entire
Year

That the Oakland sedan and coupe
is proving popular with large num-
Der OF motorists is evidenced by the
fact that quite a few have been sold
In Harrisburg in the past two months
Cold weather coming on has influence
ed the sales to a certain extent, but il
Is known fact that closed models
are being viewed with favor moro
and more and that they are being
used for all year work.
1t is only few years ago-and
very few at that-that the clos ed
models were known to only a few
automobile users. They were thought
to be cumbersome and unwieldy, and
that 1t was very expensive to oper-
ate them. This illusion is fast .disap-
pearing and the large majority OF
owners are rapidly taking to the So
dan and coupe. When a person takes
into consideration the many advant-
ages of closed car over the open
car it is little wonder that the closed
model is proving more popular. 1t Is
q recognized fact that in the next few
years, these same closed models will
no doubt be way up the amount of
sales made in comparison with the
open models.
The Oakland car of to-day is the
same sturdy little car that it was
when it was first introduced four
years ago. Four year ago the Oak
land came out as a medium priced
light six. Since that time it has not
changed in any of it's salient points.
OF course as science and improve
ments have been added to the auto

Suggest Traffic Semiphores
Used Here Are Too High

1t has been suggested by several
motorists that the traffic semiphores
used at street intersections in this
city are too high to be seen when
the driver of the car is close up to
them. On several occasions it has
been noticed by the writer that when
driver has run past tn etraffic off,
Ger that the Go signal had been
turned after the motorist was close
up to the signal.
In most cities the 60" and stop"
signal is just above the head of the
officer in charge. In this city they
are about nine feet high. 1t should
be an easy and inexpensive matter
to cut the standards shorter by at
least a foot and half and at the
same time will greatly benefit the
directing of traffic.

For Apperson Here

Francis X. Fox, eastern wholesale

mobile Company of Kokomo, Ind,

delphia. is spending the weekend
with the keystone Sales Company,
the local distributors for Apperson
eights, in going over the prospects
for the coming season.
Mr.. Fox is of the opinion that pro-
duction of motor cars is rapidly on
the increase and that while there is
sure to be an appreciable shortage
and that manufacturers will not be
able to meet the demand, there will
be much larger deliveries of cars in
this territory in the near future.
This has been one of the big prob
lens for the local distributors dur
ing the past season. While q few
cars have been delivered here. there
has been nowhere near enough to
supply the demand.

LARGE CONVENTION HALL
TO BE BUILT BY MOTOR
DEALERS ASSOCIATION
Site Purchased Cameron Street Near Berryh Work
Start in Spring

Announcement was made during
the past week by George G. McFar-
land, president of the Harrisburg
Motor Dealers Association, that ne
EQUATIONS had been closed by his
association for the purchase of a
plot of ground in South Cameron
street near Berryhill. This lot is To-
Gated directly south of the Smith
and keffer building and is 120 feet
frontage by 375 feet deep. 1t is
the intention of the association to
oulld a large convention hall on the
plot that will cost in the neighbor-
hood of s2,00O,00O, which will
contain store rooms on the front
with a garage on the rear and large
rooms on the second and third floors
that will be used for all kinds of
snow purposes and conventions.
Ever since the Motor Dealers have
been holding annual shows in this
city they have had to depend on
renting some building large enough
to hold the many models OF automo-
biles they had to exhibit. While this
always caused considerable trouble,
yet they were able to find some
building that was large enough. Last
season, however, showed that the in
creasing number. of dealers and the
wonderful growth of the automobile
business necessitated the securing of
building that would be large
enough for their purposes and would
be permanent fixture. The building
used then was the largest in the
city that could be used for show
purposes, yet it was necessary to
hold two separate shows, one for
passenger cars and the other for
trucks and then the shows were held
under very cramped conditions. 1t
was decided at that time that in
order to meet the increasing de-
mand for floor space and to have a
hall that would be centrally located,
1t would be necessary to buy a plot
of ground and build hall that
would meet their demands for years
to come.
A committee was appointed to
look over several plots of ground

BATTERY TESTS,
WHAT, WHEN, WHY
Inside Information Regarding
a Battery Test; What
the Man Does

Have you ever wondered just what
the battery man does when he tests
your battery? You know the test
should be made frequently, but do
you know why? When we asked
c. L. Miller, of the local Willard
Service Station, to answer this ques-
tion for our readers, he said: II will
try to talk in words of one syllable
and try to keep away from techni-
cal terms.
The hydrometer test simply
weighs the battery solution. We
take the weight of distilled water es
a standard and call it T. Sulphuric
acid weighs more than water, so
that when it is added to water, as 1t
is to make the battery solution, the
solution will naturally weigh more
than the original water 1t is this
increased weight which we measure.
