TALK TT OVER WITH
 A TRUCK SALESMAN
 BEFORE BUYING ONE

Every business man with haulage problem has at his command today ready reliable and gratuitous source of assistance and cooperation in the solu- tion of his transportation problems.
 Truck users and prospective truck users are learning that the modern truck sales man may be depended upon to bring to their attention points of view which con- tribute materially toward the correct so- lution of their hauling problems.
 A few of the higher grade truck manu- featuring concerns train their statesmen in the transportation problems of great many different lines of business. A real truck salesman knows he is selling more than a trucl-he is selling transportation. He has equipped himself with wealth ot information of great value to the pros- pective truck user.
 If you think there iss the remotest pos sibility of your being able to use trucks to advantage, talk the matter over with Ia competent truck salesman. Such mar can be properly called a truck trans portation engineer.
 Do not labor under the misapprenen- sion that if you permit an interview to truck salesman you will thereafter be indefinitely "hounded" No truck sales man will waste time on you unless he knows you can use his truck to your ad- vantage. Armed with his knowledge of

truck bureaus has been established for the information of the shipper. motor truck operator and the public.
 There are several of these bureaus To- cated on the direct route of the army convoy, and they will doubtless prove valuable information points relative to roads that can support the passage of the motor trucks and the big army train.
 DEMONSTRATES THE VALUE
 The very passage of the motor convoy of the army will not only demonstrate the value of the motor truck as short transportation medium, but will demon strate the need for proper permanently constructed highways.
 The personnel of the convoy is of the type of men employed in a state of war, and are especially picked for the long 34Oo-mile tour to the Pacific coast. The personnel, under the command of Col John J. Franklin, Jr., |. s, A., will con- sist of:
 Motor transport company. 76 men, 2 officers.
 Service park unit, 8 men, l officer.
 Headauarters motor command, 20 men. : officers.
 Medical unit. 10 men. officers.
 Engineer unit, 10 men. officer.
  servers. consisting of officers from all branches of the service.
 The vehicles making up the convoy will consist of the following:
 Motor Transport eompany-1 Dodge touring car, 1 Dodge delivery truck, White one and one-half-ton cargo, , White one and one-half-ton cargo, s Gar ford one and one-half-ton cargo, Pack ard one and one-half-ton cargo, stand ardized 'B" cargo trucks, ? FWD cargo, kitchen trailer, motorcycles, solos.
 Service Park Unit-1 Dodge touring car. shop trucks, 1 Dodge light delivery truck, ? White one and one-half-ton cargo trucks. l Cleveland tractor.
 For Headquarters Motor Command-2 Cadillac touring cars, Dodge touring cars, White staff observation cars, l YMC ambulance, 4 motorcycles, solos,
 A similar convoy was dispatched July ', 19l9 over the Lincoln Highway from Washington, D. C.. to San Francisco, and with the customary army way of doing things was successful in arriving in San Francisco with only four days lost-two at Gothenberg, Neb., and two in the des- ert west of Salt Lake City.
 Many ''ship-by-trucll" days were de- clared by various cities en route during the passage of the convoy.
 By the enthusiasm being demonstrated this year by the cities along the Bank head Highway, which is such desirable route through the coming south, it is evident that many mayors of cities will decree "ship-by truck" for the recep- tion of the convoy and demonstrations, including entertainments for the men and officers, are being planned on a large scale.

AJAX TIRES ARE
 SOLD ID OWNERS
It Is Said That 97 Per Cent Go Directly to PeO-
 pie Who Drive

Investigations conducted recently by Ajax Rubber Company. one of the five great tire manufacturers of the United States, reveal much food for thought for tire users.
 For instance--it is shown that 97 pe' cent of all Ajax Tires manufactured are sold, through Ajax dealers, directly 10 automobile owners This means tha- yl per cent of all Ajax tires are chosen by car owners to replace some other brand of tires with which their cars originally were equipped
 It is also shown by the investigations. that a large percentage of Ajax tire users are men who now are driving their fourth or fifth car. This fact, Ajax ex- ecutives maintain, indicates a distinct Ajax preference on the part of experi- enced motorists
 Indications of the accuracy of these findings are to be had in and near Bir- mingham. Leslie Fulenwider of the Full enwider Auto Supply Company, asserts that notable number of the veteran car owners of this vicinity are enthusiastic Ajax users. He says, too, that praetlcaiiV every Ajax tire in use in and near BIT mingham has been chosen by the owner in replacement of some other tire whlch was on his car when it was purchased.
 The Fulenwider Auto Supply Company has successfully handled Ajax tires anu Ajax tubes in this vicinity since entering the automobile accessory business.

FRENCH EXAMPLE,
 OF MANDATE EFFECT
By Associated Pres,


 Adrianople, June 1.-The French admin istration, accompanied by a small army of occupation, in western Thrace, is be- ing pointed to here as an example of ths benefits a mandate would accomplish un- der the League of Nations.
 The French civil administration began its work in the latter part of last No vember and into country full of war ring bands of various nationalities, it has brought peace and order permitted the planting of crops. and the normal pre- war life of the country to be pursued.
 When the French took over the coun try every mans hand was raised against the other Alarmists rumors about the arrival of the British and Greek, Bulgar and Turkish troops were circulated ire qrentily. The French took over the Bull garian administration. and for the most part the Bulgarian civilian employees, whom Y ~ench found efficient. In or der to insure the honesty of these of fcials the French have adopted the sys- lem in many localities where the Greeks are in majority of putting alongside If a Greek chief official Bulgarian sec- retary, and vice versa, in localities where the Turks or the Greeks are in majority
 The French have in all. including con stabulary. not more than 500 of their owii chief administrators. These are generally officers detailed from the army who have had experience in the French colonies Thus with the skeleton French staff the French have been able to obtain reas enable efficiency.
 When the French came they had 1,500,0oo francs put at their disposal by their gov ernment for administrative expenses, but so far they have not spent one franc Of this sum- They immediately levied in direct taxes and for the period they have been in the country these have been practically double the expenses of the civil administration.

Distributors representing the Nash Mo- tors Company in various sections of the country gathered in Kenosha last week for a three-day conference. The meet ing was in charge of Charles B. yoorhis, vice president and general sales mana ger of the Nash Motors Company, and matters of importance with reference to sales and service of Nash products were discussed.
 It was brought out at the convention that contracts signed with the distribu- tors ean for s79,00a, ,00) worth of business fer the next twelve months. The Nash Motors Company has reached this vol ume business ir a period of little over three years cf active production, during part cf which time it's activities were centered on wartime production.
 Service to Nash owners and the inn portance of the dealer who operates un- der the distributor were points empha- sized by MT. Nash and MT. Voorhis in their talks to the visiting delegation The distributors were told that service is the foundation upon which the Nash organ ization is built.
 e Tae convention ended with an inspec- non of the Milwaukee plant of the Nash Motors Company, now in process of con- struction, and where the Nash Four is to be produced The visitors were im- pressed with the buildings and with the machinery, much of which already has been installed and some of which is in operation
