highest resale values on the market-a point seldom considered which, how ever. is of the greatest importance to the automobile buyer
 Take the classified advertising sec tion of the newspapers, for instance. Notice how few. if any, Hudsons are offered for sale and then notice whas abnormally high prices they command. While the prices, of course. vary in diff ferent sections of the country, it was nothing unusual last year for four year-old Hudsons to resell for as much or, in somc cases. more than the orig inal purchase price
 Tn one city in Nebraska, for ins- tancC. the depreciation of Hudson is estimated at $1S5 per year and these figures do not vary greatly in other sections of the country. So Hudson owners have come to look upon their cars as an investment, the exclusive principle used in the constructions of the motor to minimize destructive vibration assuring not only the most dependable service but also long life and the highest resale value"

 For appeal. good old fashioned sim cerity still holds the palm: artistic H. lustrations and clever phraseology are mighty factors in sales literature; they attract readers. but it is the solid facts that convince.
 The following letter, prepared and sent to d list of doctor prospects by the Franklin Ross Motor Car company of St. Louis. contains more sincerity than can be incorporated in the average sales letter. and clever phraseology has not been overlooked either:
 Doctor, Please Diagnose This Casel"
 One cold night last winter a St Louis physician started out at midnight to visit three cases. The first was a child with the crop He stayed there half an hour When he started for case numter two-a boy with nephritis- his radiator wheeZed and steamed, but he got there all right, and remained there nearly an hour.
 He expected to be called on this third case. a confinement about a. m. but he received a phone call asking him to hurry. The case was four miles away, on the north side. On attempting to start his car. he found it frozen stiff not a chance of thawing it out-the cylinde-head crackedi Not a street car avails ble.
 d and reached his patient, the confine- ment was over. another physician had been called, he had lost that family as patients. and he faced garage bill of at least s75 for repairs
 And that is likely to happen to any physician. any cold night unless he drives Franklin-the air-cooled car.

SolderinQ Aluminium,

An ingenious method of soldering aluminium is as follows: Drill the sur face of the aluminium with as many small holes as possible at slight angle. Drive in brass plugs that are a tight fit and smooth off the pegs even with the surface. The surface should next be cleaned thoroughly and paste solder be applied with a hot soldering iron, after which tlfe two surfaces are put together, heated and treated exactly as copper or brass.

By removing the wheel and band and cutting out a short bit of lining under the anchor squeaks may be eliminated from the brakihg system. The section removed may be taken from between the rivets, so that these latter are not disturbed and the lining will be just as firmly held as before

Traffic Delayed TO Points South

su Special Correspondent.
MATAWAN. April 9.-The burning
of the railroad bridge over the Raritan
river between South and Perth AmDoy
delayed traffic from the points on the
New York and Long Branch railroad
Yesterday to considerable extent. When
it was found that the bridge Wouiu
be out of commission for several hours
some of the trains to New York were
switched to the Camden and Amboy
tracks of the Pennsylvania rallroad
at South Amboy and were run 10 the
city by way of Monmouth Junction
aud the Main line of the Pennsylvania.
Before boarding trains passengers
were informed that the bridge was out
of commission and that the trains
would r'.n over the Camden and AM
boy division of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, making them an hour late IN
reaching New York City. However
most of the trains going this round
about way were from two to three
hours late in reaching their destination
The burning of the bridge congested
the handling of the freight trains ana
il was late last night before regular
service on the New York and Long
Railroad was possible. Trains
today are running on regular schedule
although some are held up at the
bridge where both south and north
bound trains are using one track.

REPORT COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
PETITIONS TO BE CIRCULATED HERE
Petitions Now Being Drawn Up
and Will be Let Out for
Names Shortly, it is Said

Although there is no evidence Of
their having appeared in public as yet
in this city. ii is underbood that Pc
titions calling for the establishments
of commission government of city
officials. including Mayor Frank Dor
sey. but none of them had any knowl-
edge of the fact that petitions were
being drawn up.
Owing to the recent developments
In the city administration in which
the questions were aroused as tc who
was the head of certain departments,
the commission form of government
idea Is expected to prove popular with
those who wish to know where cer-
tain responsibilities lie.
When q commission government
election was held in this city on Oc-
tober 16, 1917. the move was defeats
ed by the close margin of 1S3 votes,
the total vote of those in the city
favoring the change being 1927 as
compared with 1,4S0 in opposition to
1t.
The move for commission govern
ment at that time was without or
ganized effort, but despite this fact
the proposition was almost put
across. Every poll In the first and
second ward voted in favor of COM
mission government at the 1917 cleo
ton while all of the other polls in
the lOuI WdIuS ldNuTeu
the present system of government.
A commission government election
cannot be held, according to law DUR
ing the first year of a mayors term.
AS this Is Mayor Frank Dorsey's sec
ond year in Office it will mean that IL
the adherents to the commission idea
do not call for an election this fall 1t
will be impossible for them to again
bring up this issue before 1922.
The politicians and city holders
We're active in defeating the issue in
1917 and considerable interest is be-
Ing manifested by them this year in
trying to learn whether or not SINH
lar move is on foot again to change
the form of the city administration.
The recent incident relative to the
employes of the street department
changing their working hours to the
daylight saving system plan when the
mayor said they should and Alderman
Christian Andersen, chairman of the
streets committee of the council, said
they should not, is pointed out by
Icommission government believers as
ian example of the present inefficiency
lin knowing just who is in charge of q
certain department and who should
be held responsible for the conduct
of this department.

SPAN
AGAIN IN USE
Fire Makes Use of One Track
Impossible, But Traffic to
Points South is Resumed

Shortly after 6 o'clock last night
service over the New York & Long
Branch railroad bridge across the
Raritan river between this city and
South Amboy was resumed after be-
ing tied up for more than six hours.
due to the damage done by a fire
which started at 1880 o'clock yes
terday morning and before 1t could
be put under control had burned ties
on the bridge for a distance of zoo
feet.
During the time the bridge was
closed trains of both the Central
Railroad of New Jersey and the
Pennsylvania railroad using the New
York & Long Branch tracks were
sent to their destination by way of
the Pennsylvania main line to Mon
mouth Junction, there switched onto
the Camden and Amboy division of
the Pennsylvania and at South Am
boy junction again switched onto the
New York & Long Branch tracks. In
some cases IL took from two to three
hours to make the trip in this round
about way. Some of the trains that
went by the Monmouth junction
route did not arrive at their destina-
tions until long after the trains which
were held here and South Amboy for
the bridge to be repaired had reach
ed their destination.
At o'clock last night the north
bound track over the bridge was
placed in operation, but the south
bound track is still unable to be used
and it may be late tonight or early
tomorrow morning before the south
bound track can be used. The SOUTH
bound side of the bridge was the most
badly burned and 1t Is necessary TO
replace 500 feet OF the track before
trains can again operate. AT the
present time both north and south
bound trains are using the north
bound track.
The fire was discovered by the
office force of the Raritan Copper
Works and they telephoned the alarm
to the Central station here and also
sent the plant fire department. to
fight the fire. The bridge Is under
the control of the New York & Long
Branch railroad and for this reason
It was impossible to obtain informa-
tion from the local Central officials

ouired TO be on the watch for fires.

nection with the fire was that the
Eagle hose truck ran over the 1901

ing it. He was attended by DR.. Ii.

During the period when the bridge
was afire yesterday the Chamber OF
Commerce got in touch with w. {:
Hope, passenger traffic manager OF
the Central Railroad and offered to
assist in any way in helping relieve
the situation by obtaining extra
buses to move the passengers from
one station to another. Mr.. Hope,
however, informed the secretary tnat
r,.anpennants had been made with
the PENNSYLVANIA railroad to route
their trains through Railway and
