Ship,by-truck terminals in other
cities have met with great sue

maintained throughout the winter,
even during the worst weather.
The legislature of the state Of
Minnesota made large appropri-
alton to keep these routes free from
everything that would delay the
delivery service daily. Giant trucks
were equipped with snow plows,
and these made daily trips over the
route to keep the roads clean from

to obliterate ruts.
AtiSioux City the Interurban Mo-
tor express through their own eff
forts kept the routes clear. There
is no reason why Omaha should
not be able to support a terminal
in the way that Sioux City and
Minneapolis does.
Boost Civic Enterprise.
The live stock market, the produce
market, and the great amount of
wholesale shipping out of Omaha all
tend to make this terminal one of
civic interest and should be boosted
by anyone who has a regard for a
good cause or to see Omaha giving
and receiving service to and from
the outlying towns.
Mr.. Hartung and X. S. Graul,
manager of the Firestone Ship-by-
Truck bureau, will leave Tuesday for
Minneapolis and Sioux City to in
vestgate the methods of terminal
operation. These terminals afford
the best example of their kind in

OMAHA TO HAVE
TRUCK TERMINAL
BY HARTUNC co.
Will Make Daily Trips Through
Surrounding Country, Max
ing Pickups From Farmers
Along Road.

Harry Hartung, manager of the
Hartung Transfer & Storage Co.,
Inc, has announced his intention OF
giving Omaha a truck terminal.
This has long been under con-
sideration, and after carefully study
ing the situation, he has decided that
Omaha, with its usual concern in
ventures of commercial interest, will
support terminal of this kind.
Daily truck service on scheduled
time and rates from Omaha to the
outlying towns is long-felt need.
This will doubtless draw more trade
to Omaha than would otherwise 60
some place else because of the poor
shipping services offered by the
railroad.
Can Get Daily Supplies.
1t will enable the customer and
the merchants in the smaller towns
on these routes to obtain daily sup
plies. There will be more produce
brought to Omaha by the farmer,
who can utilize these truck routes to
get his perishable products to a
quick market, and by so doing he is
encouraged to raise much more gar
den truck and ship it to market, in
stead of letting what he does raise
60 to waste.
The truck operator in the small
town will be able to get return
load from the terminal, back to his
headquarters. Return loads mean
profitable trips both ways.
Same as Minneapolis.
The terminal will be operated in
practically the same way as are
those in Minneapolis and Sioux
City.
Mr.. Hartung will secure the serv-
ices of a responsible transportation
firm in every one of the towns at the
most distant point on the route.
This firm will pick up load from
its town to Omaha and will So

and live stock shippers to Omaha.
Pickups From Farmers.
The truck will stop at the farms
along the route on the way in. Or
ders from the farmers will be taken
by the driver. These orders will be
phoned from the terminal to the
Omaha merchants, who will deliver
the order to the terminal and de-
livery will be made the next day.
The accompanying map shows the
routes and towns to be served in
this way. This practically covers
every town within radius of 50
miles. Daily service on these routes

for which the bureau has worked.
Ship-by-Truck has been brought
to the attention of everyone who
can be benefited directly or indi-
rectly by motor transportation
through the efforts Of this buerau.
X. S. Graul, manager of this bu-
reau has spent great deal OF time
in working out plan whereby thi.
daily service could be maintained.
1t is not a new venture. A great
many other cities have established
terminal of this sort, and their
success has been assured from the
very start.
Mr.. Graul and Mr.. Hartung have
called on the wholesale and retail
merchants, automobile dealers and
truck men, who are all highly in
favor of this project. and will back

Olds1nobile Buses
Solve the Problem Of
Urban Transportation

Until very recently most of the
motor buses put in operation were
either overgrown trucks that re-
sembled street cars, or merely con-
verted passenger cars. While the
larger vehicles were suitable for big
city work, neither type was adapted
to continuous cross-country work,
or. to many other lines to which
the lighter, easy riding truck-bus of
today is adapted.
In commenting on this situation
Charles A. Tucker of the Nebraska
Oldsmobile Co. of Omaha, Oldsmo-
bile distributors, said:
"One of the first thoughts in put
ting the Oldsmobile Economy
Truck on the market was to intro
duce it to bus operators and to
people who might pfofitably oper-
ate buses if they had the right sort
of vehicle. The jitney operators
were quickest 10 see the advantage
of a pnematic tire equipped truck
that would ride like a passenger car
and still have the endurance quail
ties of a first-class truck.
"Hotel and depot bus operators
soon came to see the matter in
the same light as the jitney people.
As to inter-city traffic, we found
that a great many people who had
hesitated to go into this work, saw
in our proposition the ideal means
for engaging in a very profitable
business. P. L. Emerson, general
sales manager at the factory, tells
me they have received great many
letters of high appreciation from
inter-city bus operators who have
more than made good since put

REPORT CANTU
BUYING ARMS
in AMERICAN
.BORDERC|T|ES
Cantu Claims Only Five
Americans In Army. Am

KumOrs. CalexicO Mer-
chants Hindered.

7 According to reports from an au
thentic source Governor Cantu is not
only carrying on campaign for a
volunteer army to aid him in with
standing the coming attack of Federal
troops among the Mexican laborers on
the American side Of the line, but he
has also employed agents who are at
the present time buying all the avail
able arms and ammunition which can
be obtained on this side of the border.
In statement issued today by Can
tu's secretary of state, Agulllar, the
rumors that Cantu is employing great
numbers of American ex-service men
is emphatically denied. The state
ment claims that but five Americans
are employed by Cantu, and that they
are all experts, either in the aviation
or artillery service. In company with
this statement Aguillar claims that
volunteers, and not $25, as has been
claimed
The Calexico American Legion Post
has also announced itself as denounc-
ing the reports that American eX-serv-
ice men are flocking to Cantu in sup
port of his purpose. Both Of these
statements are in negation of the
common reports circulating regarding
Americans volunteering to serve in
Cantus army.
The statement does not deny, how
ever, that MeXcans are being enlisted
by Cantu.
i Calexico merchants are in guam
dairy at the present time regarding
just who is entitled to their duties.
Cantu recently stated that all import
and export taxes must be paid to him
personally. Consul Parades, stationed
in CaleXico, has warned the merchants
there that import and export taxes
must be paid to the Federal govern
ment, and that for any time within five
years these duties may be collected by
the Federal government.
Merchants paying their duties to
Cantu are in danger of having to pay
them twice, while merchants who pay
their duty to the federal government
will not be permitted by Cantu to
either ship goods in or take goods out
of MeXicali ~. ...
Duties during the summer months
amount to about 5000 day, being
3 per cent Of the value Of the product,
and amount in the winter to about
$400. 1t is said by many that this sit
uaion may bring American examina-
ton into the case. I4,f
1t is rumored that the Federal gov
ernment is massing troops in the state
of Sonora and that massed attack
will be made upon Cantu from both
Ensenada, Sonora and the point sof
landing on the gulf to be chosen by
the troops leaving Mexico.
Whatever the future may hold for
Cantu things are now quiet in MeX-
cali. The usual Sunday evening con-
cert was held in MeXicali last night
and the usual numbers of Calexico

Mexicans either, America was mixed
up in it.
The American forces were K-9, the
Mexican forces were K-9-2. K-9-2
advanced toward American soil at
about $50, behind a heavy barrage of
barking. K-9 remained in his trenches
until the enemy had advanced to with
in 10 feet of him, when he went over
the top accompanied by the sharp
staccato reports of light fire yelping.
AS he advanced the light fire was
dropped and the heavy artillery set in
motion. 1t required but slight time
for the heavy growing to locate the
enemy, who was madly rushing for
ward with very little attempt at pro
lection The two forces met on the
border line and after severe bayonet
combat and close firing -he Mexican
forces were driven back beyond his
first lines. Lack of pass prevented
the American dog from pursuing his
advantage. That was the only battle
in Mexicali last night.

All-American canal and other projects
provided for by the Kincaid bill, is
about to begin.
Mr.. Gault arrived in FL Centre last
night and has taken up his headquar
ters in the Oregon hotel, where his
offices will be during the next SIX
months. Equipment has been ordered
and is already beginning to arrive, so
that it is expected that actual work
will be begun on the survey within the
next week.
Three parties of I men each will
carry on the field work. Seven Fords
have been ordered by the party to aid
them. The field engineers who will
take charge OF the companies have not
as yet been picked, Mr.. Gaut said to-
day He also stated that both eng in
GERS and rough workers are needed by
the party.
1t is the plan of Engineer Gault to
survey sites for canals in Imperial

form network of canals. which will
provide for the irrigation of the great
est possible territory and which will

sand hills. and a bordering strip en-
circling the valley, in addition to some
land in the Coachella valley and some
in the district of Carriso Gorge.
The survtv will also include the con-
sidering of the advisabiity of provid-
