Industry assuring, overnight If nee

from any coal embargo or shortage
which might be caused by war or
calamity, was demonstrated during
the New York Automobile Show,
when Maxwell. Chalmers Companies
displayed at the Commodore Hotel
an Industrial film which revealed the
fact that the organization is up to
any emergency which could arise TO
interfere with motor ear production.
This film might be called In the
language OF the drama, "The Works

scene was laid In the month OF De
cember when the Federal Govern
ment not only declared an embargo
ON coal but prohibited all automobile
manufacturers who had stocks of
coal from using them.
Il. j. Toner Sales Director OF the
Maxwell Chalmers Company, looked
over his mail ON the morning the en-
barge went into effect and found
hundred or more kilograms from
Maxwell Chalmers distributors who
were excited over the prospect of all
the big Detroit plants closing down.
Mr.. Toner held a hurried conference
with w. Ledyard Mitchell, President.
Mr.. Mitchelrs reply was:
"0ur machinery must be kept run
ming, coal or no coal, at any cost"
And 1t ran.
Within twenty-four hours the fac
tory operating staff had hooked up
every essential machine in the plants
with either Maxwell or Chalmers
motors, mounted on stands. To these
driving wheels were attached by belts
and on the morning following the
clamping of the mo coar' order the
Maxwell Chalmers factories were
running at normal production under
their own gasoline developed power
All departments were going full

URGES new TRIAL PLAN
FOR CHILD OFFENDERS
Bureau Bulletin Shows $4,000
Hearings in Year Before Grim
inal Courts of Country.

Young child offenders in many parts
of the United States must face the
same sort of court trial as that given
to criminals. according to a bulle-
tin issued today by the children's
bureau of the Department of Labor.
The bulletin states that of the 49,
900 children's cases before courts in
the United States in 1918, approxi-
not adapted to the handling of chill
dren'S cases.
At least one court in every state
reported that children awaiting trial
! were detained in jails and thirty
seven courts in eighteen states de-
separate children detained in jails
from old and hardened offenders
| Only 321 courts out of more than
1000 had special organization for
| trying children's cases. such as sep
arate hearings. probation service and
a system of legal and social records
Twentyone of these were juv .nile
courts created by special law and in
dependent of other court systems.
| OF the 1000 courts only 145 report
ed special provision for mental ex-
animation, and many of these exam
ined only cases presenting special
problems. In many places a phys
lcal examination was made merely in
connection with commitment. In
many others no children were exam
of abnormal condition. In 13 courts
clinics were maintained as a part of
the court organization. All of these
were in cities of 100000 or more popu-
lation.
Children in small towns and rural
districts had the poorest chance for an
adequate hearing, as the courts in less
populous places were generally ILL
equipped for children's work. The
bulletin recommends for these COM
muniries a county system, providing
a, unified probation service. a deten-
tion home and a clinic for child study
