MAXWELL STOOD STIFF
TEST or ROAD SERVICE

The supreme test of road service has
been administered by Eugene #. Cox
OF Los Angeles, who has driven
1915 Maxwell over more than $4,000
miles OF good, bad, and indifferent
highways In the territory lying between
the Mississippi river and the Pacific
coast, say Neil & Barker. OF Riverside,
arents for the Maxwell.
Cox declares the car Is still in good
condition, and that he Will turn IL in
at Los Angeles for a 1920 model.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cox are musicians and
give entertainments on the saxaphone
and other Instruments and claim to
have visited every village west of the
mississippi. Their car Is especially
equipped for touring, with seats that
may be converted into beds, and boxes
and cabinets built on the tenders and
runningboards. When weather con-
ditions permit they camp by the road
side.
I'VE have covered an average of IT,
OeO miles each season for tho past
three years" said Mr.. Cox while in
Portland, "and the only serious trou-
eIe we have had with the car was a
broken spring while passing through
Fourth OF July canyon between Co Ter
d'AIene and Wallace Idaho. This ls
the poorest stretch of road We have
encountered during the three wears

6oserts Fer two miles of the distaa' 'c
the grade Is FULLY % per cent and The
road is full Of sharp rocks ana chuck
holes We wore out set OF 'ires go-

After three years OF companionshlp

satisfied he declares u continue his

Knoxville, Tenn.-Gov. A. r. Rob

This announcement was made after
the governor had been shown a copy

The governor declined to comment
on the constitutionality of such &C
ton, saying it is in the hands of F,

has the matter up with the federal de-
partment of justice.
1T is purely federal matter and
not a state question" said the COVER.

of such an action hinges on clause

elected after the amendment has been
submitted to the state.

lapse OF Concerted Action

| Buffalo, y. Y.-The Northern Bap
list convention voted after a length!
debate to terminate relations with tbs
lnterchurch World Movement.
Lay and clerical delegates spoke il
defense of the movement, but the res
olution submitted by the board of pro
motion, through DR.. John Y. Aitchison
its director, was finally approved. Sew
eral of the delegates expressed the be
lief that the withdrawal of the Bap
fists threatened the ultimate collapse
of the entire Interchurch World Move
ment.
Rev. Cornelius Woelfkin of the
Fifth Avenue Baptist church, New
York, reviewed the constructive side
of interchurch activities. F. ~ Go

in favor of the interchurch idea, and
urged unification of effort in religious
work.

Charges of extravaganza against the
movement; that it failed from finan.

it did not take doctrinal stand on its
evangelical position; that it was mere
camouflage for organic church unity

Then he turned to the benefits from
the movement, as he viewed them,

ANSWER NOT SATISFACTORY
suffrasists VIII Picket Hardlns'S ohio
Home During The Campaign IN
less He Becomes Traetible

MISUNDERSTANDING leaders ex'
press complete disappointment with
the position OF Senator Warren @.
Harding. Republican presidential can.
didate, on suffrage, after a delegation,
led by officers OF the National Won
ans party, had called at his office
and interviewed him.
They say they viii picket Harding
during his speech accepting the nomi-
nation in Marion, Ohio. on July 22. and
during the time he conducts his front
porch campaign, unless there Is some
evidence definite effort will be put
forth to obtain adoption OF the federal
suffrage amendment. Ratification by
one more state is needed.
Senator Harding told the women
that while he was strongly in favor OF
suffrage, he did not feel that he could,
with propriety, exert pressure on state
executives.
81 can hardly believe" says Alice
Paul, chairman of the National Wom-
ans party, that a candidate nominal
ed on a specific platform, can, within
two weeks after the platforms formal
adoption, declare himself unable to do
anything to induce subordinate mem
bers of his party to carry out one Of
the platforms principal plansk.
Does the Republican platform
which commits the party to immedi-
ate ratification of the suffrage amend
so little weight with Sen
ltor Harding that he cannot even re-
quest a state governor to cease OBJ
structing this platform?
THE Republican party is now in
