mess, and our used car department is
an annex to the selling Of new cars,
the faster we make deliveries in our
regular line the more used cars we
have to dispose Of, that. we have taken
in part payment on new cars. The

Much was said about democracy. No
bolshevist sentiment was expressed at
all. These Germans professed grea,
dstrust of Poland's foreign policy
which they declared to be imperialis-
tic. They conceded that Poland now
was nominally social-democratic, but
they asserted that the Poles were such
an unstable people that their policy
was likely to change over night.
German Upper Silesians want to
remain democratic Germany they
said. German workmen want to set
tie down to work and restore German
industries. They want to show the
world that Germany can fulfill the OBJ
