URGE FEDERAL HEALTH BUREAU

(From the Philadelphia Public Ledger)
 If the members of the American Medical association will but get to- gether and agree on a uniform policy with regard to the pressing need of a federal department of health, there is little doubt that congress will come to their relief and establish such a de- partment
 It is not only the experience of the country with the influenza and infan- tile paralysis epidemics that brings home to every layman as well as pro- fessional men the need of absolute CO., ordination and standardization of pub lie medicine and of all preventive and quarantine methods that must be set up from time to time, but the experi- ence of the medical profession in the war has confirmed everything that civil life has revealed as to the gross stupidity that has for years prevented federal department of health from being set up.
 At the same time this situation can- not be blamed wholly on the ignorance of the laity in congress, since, as all medical men know, the failure to se- cure a federal department of health has been due in part to what is known as medical politics" But surely when, as Dr. Charles H. Mayo pointed out to the convention in Atlantic City in ad- vocating that a department of health be established, with a member os the cabinet. it is a fact that as many as eighteen bureaus and departments at Washington take hand in some phase of the public health problem, it is time that the profession get together and acted as a unit in demanding that an end be put to this fatuous procedure
 As it is, congress had better be me- morialized to establish such q depart

PERSONAL CARE OF
 MOTOR |S GROWING
 TENDENCY OF OWNER

To a great many motorists one of the pleasures of owning an automobile is the care and upkeep of the car. h. stead of wanting some one to keep the car in shape to run all the time, the motorist likes to tinker himself and takes a lot of pride in his ability 10 make all minor adjustments and even to completely overhaul his own car, so decides Geo. H. Reuben of the Reu- ben Auto company, local Dort agency.
 For this type of motorist a particu- lar quality of car is best" says MT. Reuben. Tn the first place, such owners generally want car that is of medium size and that operates at a moderate cost The larger, more expensive cars generally have too many fine technical points to bother the strictly amateur service man. Moreover. they mostly are owned by men whose time is too valuable to use in doing their own service.
 Secondly, the car for such a mo- torist must be so designed and built that the ordinary man can do his re- pairs and adjustments. It must be accessible to a point where most Of the work can be done in a private garage with only limited number of tools and working facilities.
 While the motorist who cares for his own car is prone to gather a good lot of tools and materials about him, he is limited to hand machinery in most cases.
 '"The car must be so built that it is simple throughout. It is perfectly pos sible for the average motorist to mas ter the theories of motor car design and to handle adjustments in a sen sible manner, but it is confusing to have a lot of complicated parts when the worker is not an expert mechanic.
 "Dort owners find it possible to do most of their own work, because of the simplicity of Dort cars. Moreover they find it most satisfying and also most economical. The present cost of garage. work makes overhauls and adjustments a very expensive thing for many motorists. In fact. many ot them cannot afford to pay the prive that all service stations have to charge
 Personally, I am glad to see an owner who wants to look after his own car. | believe that such an owner invariably takes better care of his automobile and the car gives him bet ter service because of it. After all seeing that the car he sells gives hon. est, faithful service, is the biggest re ward a dealer can get. It's what counts in the long run

IMPURE SOAPS ARE
 INJURIOUS ID CAR

The recent meeting of nearly 1000 auto and auto accessory dealers in New York marked a long step forward in establishing fixed standards for future guidance of the trade, as well as the general public.
 That vigorous and influential assem- ply was representative to a nigh ue- gree. and the sense of its deliberations as published. must necessarily have nationwide effect.
 Of the several important subjects discussed, that of exercising a prohibit tion of alkali solid" soap TOT car washing was by no means the least. The meeting adjourned with the .entre assemblage pledged to ban henceforth and forever the use Of all sticky, waste ful and ruinous soaps, and resolved to a vigorous campaign to that end. de termined, by advocacy and example, to get the public in the way of using an auto-wash effective in removing the dirt and grease, yet harmless to the most delicate varnisn.
 l There is no doubt but that the auto factories were unanimously behind this move. The factories are all for endur l ing qualities of their output, be it en- zine. chassis or paint. They realize ! that anything tending to impair their 1 best efforts of production fninimizes the willingness of the public to buy cars and that the less there IS of that sort of thing the greater the certainty of large sales. .t..t
 An interesting sidelight on this &C., 1 tion of the convention with regard to i the advocacy of harmless yet effective auto washing is the present campaign i popularizing Kantfnar Autowash. The l Woootite Laboratories, the discoverers and manufacturers of this remarkable l product, have been musy lately proving
 it's merits by a series of elaborate dem onstrations in all the large centers. l Practically all the big guns of the New 1 York convention had seen the Kant
 mar liquid successfully demonstrated, with their hearty approval, just prior
 to the passage of their resolution
 against the alkali soaps

ARMY IF MORKMEN RUSH CONSTRUCTION
 IF NEW AUTO PLANT

The month of June has greatly in. creased activity in the new construc- tion work on the Studebaker plants.
 The huge sub assembly and stock building which was started in April and the foundatoins of which were twenty per cent complete at the first of the month have been rushed along until now the foundation work is S2 per cent complete and every thing is in readiness to begin on the building proper.
 Great quantities of structural steel and reinforcing steel are being shipped and being rolled at the mills for this work. Material for concrete is coming in every day and this great four story structure which is but one of the en- tire group of ten buildings will then be pushed through to completion be- fore December 1st.
 During the month the final assembly building which will be HOO feet in length was started. Sixteen per cent of the foundation work was completed during the month and contractors are employing more men as rapidly as is necessary to take care Of the material which comes in. There were 530 men at work on the 31st of May.
 Owing to the largest amount of ex- cavating work necessary to take care of the reinforced concrete footings of these buildings there has not been a great deal of work done up-to- date on the structure, but large gangs Of carpenters have been constructing wooden forms for the reinforced con- crete cOlur.ls for the sub assembly building. Upon the receipt of several car loads of reinforcing steel now be- ing rolled at the mills and in transit these forms will be erected rapidly and poured immediately.
 The towers 145 feet in height of SxS timbers have been constructed to fa- eilitate the handling of large amount of concrete which enters into such a modern type of factory construction. | These towers will be used for raising
 concrete from the mixers, located at the base of the tower, to point where it can be distributed by a spoutins l system to all parts of the building | Provision is being made to deliver
 all raw materials, such as sand, gravel
 and cement by car loads to the mixers | thereby eliminating a great deal of | handling which would otherwise be necessary.
 | To handle the forty cars of material which arrive daily it has been found necessary to purchase a fifty ton To- 1 comotive. To do the additional work | called for in this building program machinery which has already been pur- chased for this plant and which is
 scheduled to arrive by the first of June
 or the first of September, amounts te
 one half million dollars. This is prac-
 tically 20 per cent of the machinery
 tool equipment, which it will be neces-
 sary to purchase for delivery before i the first of December, at which time
 both the sub assembly building ane
 the final assembly building are sched
 uled to be complete.

 This was the condition that cord tires have overcome. And that they actually oyercame it is indicated ii the fact that practically every manu- factucer of fabric tires has followed the lead of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company in offering tire of cord construction.

GOOD WORK IN CANAL ZONE
Archdeaeon Carson Tells Of Religious
Activities Among Those EN-.
pIoyed on the big Ditch"

Few men perhaps have so intimate
q knowledge Of the spiritual progress
made IN the canal zone as the Rev.
Henry Roberts Carson. archdeacon of
the Protestant Episcopal church there.
From those days when the canal was
yet a great doubt until the present.
Mr.. Carson has been labOring among
the employees of the canal that they
might have comfort Of body and well
fare of soul. White and black. the
men thSe know him well and rave
come to .ove him. for Archdeac"n Car
son was with them in the now almost
forgotten days when fever RACED upon
the isthmuS and each noon struck men
to the death.
Those early days ArchdeaCon Carson
recalled in the missions house OF the
Protestant Episcopal church ar New
York the other day before returning
to the canal zone.
"We were few in number then and
the work was more than enough l"r
many." he said. The employees, most
of them natives Of the British West
Indies. were housed in labor camps
here and there, for the channel was
not cut through from one end to the
other; but activities were everywhere
along its path. . :,
"And in these camps we started
churches and the church moved When
the camp moved, for when the work
IN that immediate vicinity was COM
pleted the camp went elsewhere. when
the water was turned into the canal II
submerged these places where We had
held divine service"
While the work stretches from one
ocean to the other, with churches at
dozen places, some Of the most unselr-
ish labor is among lepers in the mis-
sion of the Holy Comfort on the west
coast. There are TO be found some ~
patients including about dozen chil-
dren, and not a week passes without
services being held for them.
