its confidence in the government on a
question whether Frances conditions Of
peace should be made known to parlia-
ment, after Foreign Minister Pichon
had declined to outline the details of
the peace preliminaries until the treaty
had been signed.
The usual calm marking the morn
ing slttings of the chamber, where cleo
toral reform was under discussion, was
broken by Deputy Andre Lcbcy who
seeing that NJ Pichon, the foreign min
lister, was present, asked the minister
On what day he would accept an inter-
peilat1on on the conditions OH which the
government would make known the
terms OF peace to parliament.

be lnterpellated immediately. but that
he refused to give any details of the

flcation BY the parliament as soon as

He then asked that the matter be
dropped, making it a question of conf
dehce IN the government. The house,
after some heated speeches, supported
a. Pinchon by vote Of 334 to 1G6.

the French chamber of deputies. Later
the same deputy shouted that Premier

relations between Great Britain and

La Nacion, an influential paper here,

the British minister's leaving Ar

some connection.
The steamship, which was intern

thru Sweden. The ship has not
sailed. The allies refuse to recog-
nize transfer of the flag.

THE MEDIUM WEIGHT CAR GAINS

at was very long ago that people used to THINK
comfort and convenience of equipment were
only possible heavy automobiles says the Abilene Motor
and Vulcanizng Co., dealer Chevrolet passenger cars

"Everyone possessed the idea that automobiles had to
be large as well heavy have adequate power strength
and easy riding qualities.
at has only taken the medium weight type OF car short
time to prove that it only possess all the desired Tea
lures of heavy cars that offer them tor less money
For that reason made the possession OF an automobile
nossbe to millions who never could afford heavy and ex
pensve car
"The medium weight of today is trim and attractive
in body lines that shared by the most
expensive models Method of quantity production aso nave
made it possible add those smart rehnemen that gray
both the BODY and eye 1t has proved that the power IS
