VENIZELOS' FOREIGN POLICIES

Greece's Royal Leader Asserts That
Interests of His Country and of
Britain Are Nearly IDENTICAL

for the enforcement of the Turkish
treaty If Britain furnishes the equip
ment and munitions. Referring to the
reported demand of the allies for
the dismissal Of certain high Greek
ofncers, Constantine said:
1T is undignified to interfere in our
internal affairs. If we cooperate in
enforcing the Turkish treaty we must
have mutual confidence in each
other"

Speaking Of the Greek policy toward

Long years hence, when the historian sits down to write about the years be- tv cen 1900 and 1920, will the great war oc- cupy most of his space? No. It was by no means the most important thing. . he will write about the triumph of the ga engine applied to vehicles. "-Col- Hers.

PRAIRIE SCHOONER
 ON REPUBLIC TRUCK

The prairie schooner, fecalled in stories of the early west, will always prove in- teresting when considering the develop ment of our transportation facilities Every once in a while this relic of trans portation is brought to light in a modern way, and this was strikingly illustrated in a recent adaptation of Republic motor truck operated by the Tungsten Comet Mining Company of Panaca. New This company is situated seventeen miles from the nearest railroad and this con- dition brought about the need of solving the company's daily transportation re- quirements, both as to passenger and freight
 Realizing that it was not practicaf to necessarily be idle a part of the time, the Tungsten-Comet Mining Company in- stalled a two-ton Republic truck with a type of body to meet their local con ditjons. A passenger automobile tonneau seat was furnished for the driver, and for his protection roadster top was at tached. Over the body of the truck a canvas top was built along lines adapted from the old-fashoned prairie schooner that traversed the western plains fif.y years ago. This unique vehicle handles all of the company's travel between town and mine. including passengers, hauling of express shipments. high-grade concern trates, etc.
 The president of the Tungsten- Comet Mining Company is most enthusiasts over the utility of the Republic truck so
 employed, and is a firm believer in the
 merits Of motor truck transportation.

LOCATING TROUBLE

The Remy service handbook gives the following bit of good advice that seems well worth passing along:
 Be. consistent in looking for trouble. if certain part of the equipment is out of order determine just what condi- tions could cause the trouble, then go oyer the apparatus, Investigating each condition until the defective part is To- ceted. Suppose, for example, that one headlight does not burn, everything else being alright It would be highly in consistent to look for this trouble in the battery or the generator. as it is very evident that it is confined o the damp circui; the lamp may be burned out or the wires to the lamp may be short cirouited or open If these possibilities are gone into thoroughly the trouble will be easily and quickly cleared up. In all cases of trouble first determine all pos sible causes for such trouble and then proceed to eliminate them one at time until the possibilities are narrowed down 10 the exact defects Think first and try out in a logical way afterward. Don't Jump at conclusions first and think aft erward. Motor Life.

AKRON WILL HAVE
 SOME BUS LINES
Speedily Growing City Is Getting Too Big for Its
 Street Car System

To offset inadequate street car service in Akron, Ohio, which has earned the name of being the fastest growing city in the United States, the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company will start operation of ten-car motor bus service on June 1.
 Akron city officials will watch the operation of this line closely with the
 idea, should it be financial success,
 that it may be taken over, more busses added and the foundation laid for a municipality owned transportation
 system by bus-one of the first in the country
 City officials go so far as to sug gest that no more extensions be made to the existing trolley system, but motor bus lines be routed into all out lying sections.
 Esta blishment of the new bus line was decided after conference with city officials in an effort to devise a
 means of affording adequate transpor- tation to the 160,oo0 inhabitans who have augmented the 10000 shown by the 1910 census.
 For more than year the Goodyear Company has operated a bus line to serve 5000 families living in it's hous- \ ing section with excellent results. The | success of this line has attracted att tention from every section of the coun- 1 try and was the cause for the proposed action by the city of Akron. l Administration officials point out thta motor bus lines can easily tap
 rapidly growing suburbs without the expenditure of large sums for fran
 chises and equipment as would be nee | essary for trolley extensions. Sub urban development will not be de- 1 lay by waiting for the traction com . pany to act.
 The type of bus to be used in the | new Akron lines will be similar to 1 the one-man street car. Each bus will carry approximately twenty four peo- 1 pie, who will pay as they enter. Busses will be enclosed to given shelter from l the weather, but also be we'll venti- lated at all times and heated in winter

ID KEEP TAB ON
 ROAD CONDITIONS
Automobile Club Will Issue Bulletins on Highways
 All Over State

To make condition of road reports more authoritative the Birmingham Automo- bile Club, working comparatively with automobile clubs and civic organizations throughout the state, is establishing a bureau of information, which, when com pleted, will be one of the most thorough in the entire country
 It is planned to have automoble' clubs and civic organizations in different parts of Alabama file a report by mail of the conditions and best road routes within the radius of each of these cities, and upon receipt of these at the headquar- ters of the Birmingham Automobile Club a composite copy will be made and sent to each contributing organization In this way each city which furnished data for the bureau of information will derive di- rect benefits.
 These reports will be made weekly un- less weather conditions permit closer communication, and in case of sudden blocking of roads or the destruction or bridges, special bulletins will be sent to all parts of the state
 Tn this way close tab can be kept on all of the main thoroughfares throughout the state. and if possible weekly re- mort of road conditions will be supplied to the Birmingham papers for publica- tion.
 This Is the first time that an automo- bile club in the south has attempted to establish such a bureau for single state. and it is expected that it will De of material benefit to automobilists throughout the state and tourists passing through.

FORD OWNERS LEARN ADVANTAGES OF CORDS

Owners of Ford cars throughout the country have expressed their recognition of the great value in cord tires" is the opinion of Leslie Fulenwider, of the F'ui- enwider Auto Supply Company. "This demand comes especially from the rural districts, where car owners appreciate high values because of their experience with the rugged service required of tires on country roads.
 There are many reasons why the cord tire has won such favor among mo- torists using all kinds of cars" MT. Full enwider continued. And chief among these are the economy of the cord tire, and their effectiveness upon the pleas ure of motoring. The cord tire is prac- tical, and means for comfort as well.
 Ut was to help fulfill this need for Ford owners that Ajax cord tires for Fords were placed on the market. This cord tire, produced under extensive man. ufacturing facilities, is a six-ply tire.

Increasing Love of Outdoors

The B. F. Goodrich Rubber Company, department of investisation, finds that Ill 1919 more than "a per cent of the visitors to Yosemite Valley, California, drove
 there in automobiles A very consider
 able number of them were campers, due
 to the fact that the government is such
 a generous host. There is no limit to the

 he brings his own outfit and provisions his stay may be indefinite. There is q general store on each of these sites at
