 Governor Roberts. who is candi- date to succeed himself, seems also to have aroused considerable. opposition in labor circles, circumstance that the republicans have not been slow to seize upon. MT. Roberts is opposed by Ali Taylor who comes from the mountain regions, and whose brother, Bob. once won the governorship by his skill with the fiddle. The republicans are making d determined effott, ap- parently equally financed, to win the state for Taylor, and add at least one and perhaps two members of Congress to their string, and if possible, the electoral vote for MT. Harding.
 I talked with a democrat in Nashville last night who admitted the existence of reasons for the republican confidence regarding the state and congressional ticket

 In Kentucky the democratic chances have unmistakably improved since the campaign conducted by Governor Cox. He is well known in the state. Is, per sonally, very popular and his iafiu-

 T am curious to see what ex-President Taft now will say about it all. In the face of open announcements by the sen- atorial candidate to Senators Johnson and Borah, ex-President Taft has at tempted to persuade the friends of the league that his candidate after all will be all right Now let us analyze that We have the definite statement of the senatorial candidate that he is against the league now in any form, regardless of any kind of reservations. Are we to understand that in the face of these public avowels Judge Taft's candidate is giving him an entirely different assur- ance? If that be true, can Judge Taft worthily continue a part of the con spiracy of deceit? He owes much to the American people. They have con- ferred upon him the greatest honor with in the gift of the people. In common gratitude, in common good faith and in self-respect, he should tell in front of the curtain what is going on behind This is no time for dissimbling." Governor Cox was introduced tonight by Judge Robert w. Bingham, here and on his trip across the state today the governor was met and cheerd by large crowds. He made eleven rear platform speeches en route from Paducah at .Kut- tawa, Princeton, Dawson Springs, Nor sonvil1e, Greenville, Central City, Beaver dam, Horse Branch, Leitchfield, Cecilia and West Point. Admirers with flags and bands were all along the line, while clusters of automobiles at each station testified to country visitors.
 Remaining here overnight, Governor Cox will leave here early tomorrow for a days speaking through southern h. diana, with a night meeting at Terre Haute.
 In his two days campaigning in Ken lucky, the governor delivered twenty ad- dresses, the largest number yet in any one state.

ers in trucks and from users of
trucks" he said, there is found a
very general and very woeful lack
OF accurate knowledge of possible
operating economics. For instance,
it has been learned that nearly rs
per cent of truck owners i'll the gem
eral hauling business have gone
broke in from six months TO a year.
In most cases they have found no
lack of tonnage; in many cases
more tonnage was offered than the
trucks could carry. In practically
every case the service rendered by
the truck was sold for less than the
cost of such service, for the reason
that the truck owner did not know
what it cost him to operate. He
had not been properly informed by
the truck dealer or the truck manu-
facturer."
The live truck dealer, Mr.. Farr as
serted, realizes the importance of
selling the purchaser the right type
OF truck for his particular needs.
The tendency of some dealers and
statesmen to make sale without re-
gard to the chance the purchaser
may haye to make success of his
business, he characterized as dam
gerous to the future of the truck
manufacturing business. He illus
trated his point by a recital of
early experiences of tractor manu-
facturers in selling to farmers trac-
tors of type not fitted to their
needs, with the result that the manu-
facturers found thew had to over
come'with many farmers an unjust
prejudice against tractors in general.

I "Sell service and put your busi-

This is the advice Ernest Farr,
chief of the Firestone ship-by-truck
bureau, gave truck operators at the
Highway Transport conference in
connection with the recent motor
truck shows in New York and Chi

Mr.. Farr told truck manufacturers
at the conference they could help the

rates that will make their business

White RUBBER
INDICATES LONG
LIFE IN TIRES
Expert Of Kokomo Rubber Co.
Tells Reasons Why and Ex-
plains Factory
Methods.

"The common belief of many men
who sit back of autobomile steering
wheels that white rubber has high
wear-resistance is confirmed by
laboratory research OF rubber chem
lists" says D. L. Spraker, general
manager of the Kokomo Rubber
company.
Generally speaking, the manu-
featuring formulas developed by
modern chemistry for automobile
tire treads call for pure rubber and
a toughening chemical. Limitations
are placed on the strengthening in
gredient in that it must not impair
the elasticity or shorten the life OF
the rubber content, and that its re-
action with the rubber must be of
nature that will permit control
during the processing of the tire.
I'm the whole catalogue of chem
icals, zinc oxide comes nearest an
swering this purpose. While its
cost per volume per tire is high
without affecting resiliency, it i'm
parts to the rubber stock a wear
resistance that is unquestioned. Its
vulcanlzation reaction can be per
fectly handled SO the finished prod
uct is uniform in quality and tex
ture.
Rubber with zinc oxide content
is identified by its white color and
its resistance to road wear abrasion
These are characteristics the auto
mobile driver has observed and they
have been the basis on which he has
formulated his private but sound
theory that white rubber means
long-life tires"

Pressure Grease Gun.

An engenious car owner recently
made grease gun to operate by air
pressure. The body of the gun was
a length of three-inch gas pipe, 10
inches long. Each end of the pipe
was threaded and provided with caps
to screw on, one being bored with a
hole large enough to take a tire
valve. This may be either soldered
or screwed on. Next long spout
was attached to the other end of the
pipe, hole being drilled to receive
it and solder being used in at
tachment. In operation the rear cap
is removed and the pipe is filled
with grease and the cap replaced.
The compressed air is then applied
to the valve after the spout has been
inserted in the opening needing
grease and the lubricant is shot into
the place where it will do the most
good.

Putting Village Fire Z
Apparatus On Chassis
OF Automobile Trucks

1t ordinarily takes considerably
longer for municipalities to take ad-
vantage of modern tendencies than
it does the average keen business
man.
While this is natural, because of
the manner in which municipal
financial affairs must of necessity be
handled, it has, already become a
needle-in-a-haystack hunt to find a
city of any consequence in which
the big horse teams in fire depart
iients have not given way to motor
equipment.
"All the while this has been going
on" says Charles A. Tucker of the
Nebraska Oldsmobi1e company of
Omaha, Oldsmobile distributors,
"the small towns and villages have
looked on with envy, hoping they
might some day do likewise. That
particular some day now has ar
rived.
"The latest development and the
most radical is the adoption of the
motor fire truck by villages. In

posed route will take the trucks

it hard work to convince the board
of selectmen that the perfectly good
fire wagons they had should be
junked. Then came along the sales
man with a new idea. Why not re-
move the fire equipment from its
wagon frame and put it ON an Olds-
mobile Economy chassis?
Officials saw the point and the
deal was consummated, much to the
JOY Of the department and the salts
faction of the villagers-at-large. The
most recent case of this kind that
has come to my attention is that of
the village of Bellows Falls, VT,
which found the total expense of in
stalling motor equipment, including
painting. was a mere bagatelle."

SANDOW TRUCK
is VERITABLE
SLEEPING GIANT
What Will a Truck Dol
Is the Vital Question
Asked by the
Purchaser.

The warning that the truck in
dustry was rapidly arriving at tn,
full measure of its strength has bee,
passed along many times during th'
last few years." says w. G. Schultz
/ sales manager Of the Sandow Motor
Truck company.
These warnings have been based
on war service, increased industrial
development requiring greater load
moving capacities, and other situa,
tons.
"But the real strength of the
sleeping giant is just beginning to
make itself felt.
Truck sales during the last year
have been the heaviest the industry
has ever known. The full realiza-
tion of what truck hauling can mean
has come to every business man.
What Will Truck Do?
with all this has come a dis
tinct change in the attitude OF the
buyer of a motor truck, or of feet
equipment. Adequate advance proof
of future service is required. The
enti c process of purchasing is now
op a strictly ntilitarian basis. What
will the truck do for me? is the
question, and not What have you
got in the trucks?
tsrTba hr1n Jar e%noa rs the nuac-
tion in the minds of buyers entails
a careful analysis of what is in the
>truck, for in the long run, it is the
Apnstructionai value of the truck
that determines its service value.
In the sale of Sandow trucks we
have ,ound that the special features
which have been developed by our
engineers to add to service and sub
tract from operating costs are vital
~ interesting to the purchaser.
"The Sandow Motor Rocker Block,
designed to relieve breaking strains
on the motor legs and on, the crank
cases, has brought complete free
dom from these usual sources OF
high costs.
Motor Remover Saves Time.
The Sandow Quick Motor Re-
mover, designed to facilitate the
removal of the motor from the
chassis, has proved a definite time
saver of real money value to the
user. The Sandow Power Increaser,
replacing the usual ruffler and elimi-
mating back pressure. increases the
power delivered from the motor
and develops greater fuel efficiency.
"Tne Sandow Safety Starter elm
mates the usual dangers in cranking
the motor and saves broken arms
and other accidents.

alive to these advantages and have
seen in actual sales the real values
Of careful consideration of eyety e!e-
1iient of strength that can be built
