OPENING OF
NEW STUDEBAkER PLANTS
IN SOUTH BEND, INDIANA.

The $2O,OOO,O00 plant of the Stude-
baker corporation, the newest and de-
clared to be the most modern automo-
bile factory in the world, was off,
cially opened recently, with the city of
South Bend observing a public holiday
in honor of the event.
Starting with a parade of 1000
workers in the morning, the celebra-
ton continued throughout the day and
late into the evening. At the end of the
line of march the employees and their
families, numering 10000, gathered at
large amusement park chartered for
the occasion where they Toasted and
Joined in more than a score of field
day events.
Since these plants have been erected
to produce the new Studebaker Light
Six complete, with an eventual capac-
ity OF 500 cars day, a brand new
Light Six direct from the factory head
ed the great parade, followed by the
1OO-piece Studebaker Band, President
A. r. Erskine and other officials of tho
company, office and plant employees.
and leaders in political, financial, au-
tomotive, religious and Industrial cir
cles from all parts of the country
The real festivities began upon
reaching the large amusement park,
where contests were held for employ
ees, their wives and the kids" with
1,5OO worth of prizes for the winners.
Special features was the award of a
ton Of hard coal to the largest family
on the grounds, wagon for the
youngest baby and $1,000 to the heav-
lest man. Dancing and seven act cir
Gus and vaudeville show were added
attractions.
Some idea of the amount of food con-
sumed by the 10000 celebrants is con-

shortly.
The other two Studebaker models,
the Special-Six and Big-Six, will con-
tinue to be produced in the Detroit fac
tories, with schedule output for this
year of $4,000 cars. The combined floor
space of all the Studebaker factories
in South Bend, Detroit, and Walker
vile, Canada, is now 5,750.0O0 square
feet, and they represent an investment
of $3O,OOO,OOO.

AT LAST A GOOD ROAD.

At last We are able to boast of a re-
ally fine road in the valley, on the
west side of the Okanogan river, be-
tween Oroville and Tonasket The con-
tractors finished the work of grading
and surfacing from south of Lauber's
gulch to point north of the Bottom
ley place. This new road eliminates
the heavy side hill grades above tn,
Spencer and old Wellington ranches,
the steep hill just south of the LAUDER
gulch and the old dangerous crossing

of Lauger gulch has been replaced by
a wide and hard surfaced fill. The
contractors are entitled to credit for
the excellency of the work, and the
residents of the valley are to be con-
congratulated upon at last having a
road, travelling over which is a real
pleasure. Those who have not been
over the new road, and can only re-.
member the rough and hilly excuse
for a highway that served the purpose
for so many years, can hardly realize
the improvement that has been made.

said:
r think there are things much
nearer and more important to the
public welfare today than that ques-
ton. What we want to consider now
is the question of getting peace in the
world. For until we ratify the treaty
and establish the basis of peace wa
can have no world order-no world
prosperity-for long.
Under existing conditions no Ameri-
can business man can deal in import
or export trade while the basis Of
peace are still undetermined and tho
international credit situation remains
in its present chaos, and the economic
situation is kept in a state of uncer-
tainty. AS export trade declines, so
does national prosperity decline The
people must be made acquainted with
this fact so that they will insist that
the obstructive tactics now enployeu
in Washington by the republican sena-
tors shall cease, and world order be
quickly restored.
Our foreign trade is of course.
linked up with our railroad system and
our merchant marine system, so that
this problem of getting peace quickly
is intimately connected with the mat
ter of Immediately energizing our
transportation systems.
''T came to know enough about tbe

the job of running them on a wart
basis-while we We're 'railroading' the
kaiser 70 defeat-to know that upon
their proper functioning depends the
welfare Of our people.
We have got to realize thar every
phase of our life. social and ecoron7ic

tenn. We have got to meet the question
honestly as TO whether our railroads
are now to be unified or broken ny,
again and we have got to know that
even were they returned to private
control today and operated on the
most efficient basis possible. they
would fall far short of meeting the
necessary demands Of this grear
nation.
1T is plain to those who studied at

war that we have got to provide funds
for great program OF national rail-
road Improvement. We must provide
sufficient freight ana passenger faciIi-
ties and enlarge our rolling stock and
motive power, and, more than all else
we must turn our attention to the
providing Of adequate ana erficfent
