The Greatest Improvement
n Riding Comfort Since The Introduction
1of Pneumatic Tresy 4

IlERE Is a brand new type of
l. Lear. 1t solves the problem
which has baffled automotive en-
gineers-how to combine riding
comfort with light weight and
economy.
Our new Three-Point Cantilever
Springs make this possible.
These are the first springs of
their kind and they are made of
chrome vanadium steel. They are
exclusive with Overland.
Because of these springs, Over
land 4 combines the riding quail
tiles of large heavy, expensive, long
wheelbase cars, together with the
advantages and economy of small
light cars.
With 100-inch wheelbase, Over
land 4 has the luxurious riding ease
of 130-inch Sprinebase.

front axle and steering gear and all
highly stressed gears and shafts for

In every respect Overland 4 is a
quality car. The body is all steel,
all enamel, the brightest, hardest,
most lasting finish.

The exclusive, Three Point Cam
tilever Springs cushion the car SO
that it rides we'll on all roads: they
reduce choppy rebounds and side
swaying, protect the car from road
shocks and prolong its life, mini
mize twisting Or racking of frame
and body, enable the car to hold
the road better.
The car and passengers ride
smoothly as though floating, free
from road shocks that the springs
ward off.
But this neW riding comfort, pos
sible only with these Three-Point
Cantilever Springs, is but one of
the advantages of Overland 4.
Its light weight makes possible
great economy of gasoline and tires.

New York. May 2s.-In the last
hour today there was excited buying
of stocks that established new high
records in standard isues as well as
specialties. Then in the last few
minutes of trading a wave Of profit
taking swept over the Street with
the result that final prices were a
point or more under the high figures
that had just been established. This
profit-taking was due to the coming
holidays which happen at a very
critical time.
Before the market opens on Mon
day there may be very important
developments in the German situa-
ton. 1t is difficult to see now how
any development in the German sit
uation can take the market by sur
prise for all arrangements have been
made to march the allied armies
into Germany in the event Of a re-
fusal to sign and the market knows
that and has taken in into account.
Stocks most prominent in today's
trading were United States Steel, the
leather issues. the food stocks. To-
baccos. Ice. railroad equipments and
local fractions. Other stocks were
active and strong and the gains Of a
point and more were numerous.
The big reason that sticks out of
the market like a mountain top is
the crop situation OF the United
States. The winter wheat crop is
more than 100 per cent perfect Some
doubt has been entertained regarding
the spring wheat crop, and today that
was dissolved by an enthusiastic re-
port from government experts. The
crop reports this year read like oil
company prospectuses. These crops
are the foundation of the whole struc-
ture of prosperity.
When United States Steel started Its
fresh upward movement today 1t had
the backing OF a report Of the Iron
Age that the whole steel industry is
improving.
Liquidation of the Mercantile Ma
rine Company will undoubtedly be ac-
complished through the organization
of a new corporation which may be
clothed BY the American government
with power not held by the old COM
pany-powers that will enable II to
compete successfully for more than
two years with ships of other lands.
Strength of the Tobacco shares was
a feature of the market. Tobacco
products going to a new high level.
Several important stocks sell ex-
dividend tomorrow. and will look so
cheap as to attract buyers. Among
them are Canadian Pacific, Southern
Pacific, Norfolk and Western. L. s.
