Reduce Wars to Mini
mum.

Baltimore, Oct 23.-~Cardinal Gibbons,
in copyrighted interview published
Thursday in the Baltimore Sun, gives un-
qualified Endorsement Of the League OF
Nations, and sees in il an effective pre-
ventive of International wars.
He counsels against delay on the part
of the United States in entering the league,
saying that delay is dangerous and
means continued cumulative suffering
He is firmly convinced that the United
States will Join the league. Once our
responsibility is clearly established and
made undeniably manifest" he says, the
American people will not sidestep. We
will do our duty We always have.
The interview saws in part

SOUTH BACKS CENTRE
COLLEGE VS.. HARVARD
Unusual Interest Attaches TO the
Game With Blue Grass
BOYS Today.

New York. Oct. 23-An intersectional
football game of far more than normal
interest, features the gridiron schedule OF
TODAY in the meeting of Harvard
University and Center College Of Danville,
Ky.
There are unusual sidelights and angles
which separate the coming contest from
even the occasional intersection game
which brings together the supposedly best
elevens of two portions Of the country.
The history Of Centre College is unique
and that of its football elevens OF the past
few wears even more unusual
Gradually the report spread that the
football elevens developed at Centre Col
lege, n Presbyterian institution OF less than
400 students located IN the Kentucky
blue grass region, were not the result on
freak or haphasard conditions, but the
fr,ltion of 3 system which compared
favorably with those governing football at
the leading colleges and universities OF
the country. Enrolment and eligibility
requirements were on par with those OF
the strictest institutions.
When the season of 1919 closed and Il
was seen that Centre had rolled up the
surprising total Of 49, points, against -
for her nine opponents and that two OF the
team were selected for the All-American
eleven with third placed among the
substitutes, the Southern college team was
invited to arrange a game with Harvard
and quickly accepted.
Yesterday the--Centre College football
squad accompanied by more than 500
rooters, including the president Of the
college, members Of the faculty and a
number of staid Kentucky business men
passed through this city on their way 70

AS this message is being written,
Dodge Brothers daily, weekly
and monthly production, is at the
highest point in its history.
The most casual sort of inquiry
will satisfy you that this pro-
duction is being absorbed as it is
delivered.
Within sight and sound as we
write, a great addition to Dodge
Brothers immense works, is
being rushed to completion.
The interesting thing about this
situation is, that it is not likely
that half hundred people have
ever bought Dodge Brothers
Motor Car just because they
wanted a motor car.
Of the more than half a million
who have bought 1.-THE over
whelming majority did SO be-
cause of the name it bore.
It has always been treated, by
the American people in particu-
lar, as an exception-always set
apart, and singled out, and never
judged by ordinary standards.
1t has always been thought of,
and is still thought of, first, and
foremost, and all the time, only
in terms of its goodness, and the
results it gives.
All of this is wonderful, in one
way, and quite natural and logi-
cal in another.
1t all dates back to the day when
John and Horace Dodge con-
ceived and designed and finally
built the car-after warning each
other, and their associates, not
even to think of it in any other
terms than the best obtainable
value.
They began with a few almost
absurdly simple principles,
bluntly expressed and rigidly
executed, about decency and
honor and integrity = such as
most of us wrote in our copy
books at school,
Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1920-10-23
6oon Will TRIUMPHANT Under TEST

They reduced these old copy
book maxims to splendid and
scientific system, pouring more,
and more, and still more value
into the car, and then marshall
ling all the resources of modern
massed manufacture to get their
product into the hands of the
people at an honorable and an
honest cost
These policies and principles
have never been changed, and
never will be changed, by SO
much as a hairs breadth; and
they have come to be recognized
and accepted as Dodge Brothers
principles wherever motor cars
are driven.
1t has all happened as John and
Horace Dodge planned it quite
simply, naturally, and automat-
ically, all over America, and all
over the world.
People do discriminate, as Dodge
Brothers contended they would;
people viii find out when a
motor car is we'll built and gives
good service and great good
value.
Dodge Brothers market today is
where they planned to locate
and establish it in the mind
and the heart of every man and
woman who admireS good work,
well done.
1t will last, and it will keep on
growing, as it has kept on grow
ing for five years Easter than
Dodge Brothers works could
keep pace with it,, as long as
the number of those who believe
that a manufacturer should build
to serve and not merely to sell,
continues to increase.
All is we'll with Dodge Brothers
today, because John and Horace
Dodge builded well in the begin
ming, and because their business
will continue to build we'll until
the end.

RUMANIA TRIES
 SPECULATION AS
 H. C. L. REMEDY

Bucharest, June 29.- Rumania is being Swept with a vast wave of speculation, the object Of which is to overcome the high cost of living, which harasses the richest and poor est alike. The primary cause of the advanced price of necessities is found in the fact that all manu- factured products have to be import ed whereas there is sufficient amount of food grown in the country to sup port the population and this food has not risen in proportion of dress goods
 The cost of living in Rumania has been the occasion of many strikes but as in every other country in Europe, people seem to find unexplained ways of buying fine clothes and keeping themselves well dressed.
 The wealthy women of this coun- try make bi-annual trips to Paris and return with their trunks filled with shoes and silk stockings and dresses of the latest fashion, which they bring into the country despite the prohibition against the importation of such articles and also a twenty-hv per cent. customs duty which is paid when special permission is obtained to bring in goods. When such per-
 mission is not obtained. the goods are
 smuggled in automobiles over the frontiers.
 Princess Elizabeth went to Paris | last winter and bought herself three | huge trunks full of new clothes, l but arrived home heart-broken- While passing through Jugo-Slavia during the customs examination, the | trunks were stolen.
 The American Red Cross has con- | tributed to the clothing of a good many thousands of people in Ru- | mania Some of this clothing found | it's way to the shops. It is not un- | common to find women who have
 converted American army shirts into l skirts, first dyeing them another l color. Blankets have also been used | for the making of cloaks and over- | coats.
 1 The American shoe is practically | the only article to be found in the ] shops. These shoes sell at a price of | S4 to $8, cheaper than in the United
 States. Prices of clothing have been | increased about tenfo1d. as compared | before the war. Women's dresses
 which formerly cost 200 leis or about $35, now cost 2,000 1eis.
 | The actors and actresses are still 1 underpaid. Rumania's greatest of al | actress, Mime. Marie Giurgoa, receives 5000 lei per month, or half the price , of an expensive dress. Music hall l artists receive 20 to 50 lei a night l It is difficult for them to live an6 dress themselves well, as they have
 no means of making money in side | lines, such as in the moving pictures
 industry, which has not yet been de
 veIoped in Rumania.
 | Cabinet members are practically
 the only ones who have not had thei
 salaries raised. They still receive
 the equivalent of about s200 a year

ARE
 TO COST $1o

New Haven, June 2s.-Now the high cost of travelling has struck the seekers of passports. It was an nounced at the office of the clerk of the United States District court in this city that beginning July 1 the cost of securing passports will be in creased from $2 to $10.
 Under the old law the cost was $2, half of which went to the office of the clerk for making the appllca- ton and the other half to the State Department at Washington.
 According to the new rule the fee of the court will still be limited to S1, and the extra $9 must go to tne State Department.
 A regulation has beca pocelved also that beginning July 1 no pass ports will be issued to aliens whc have declared their intention to pe- come American citizens; all such must make application to their con- sular agent.

HOSPITALS CALL x FOR MORE NURSES

Buffalo, June 29. - Unless some remedy is found for the acute short age of nurses, many Hospitals of the country will be compelled to curtail their operations, asserts Mrs. Annie L.

A recent cam paign to induce more young women to take up the profession of nursing was a failure, Mrs. Hansen said, and as a result one Buffalo institution was compelled to close one of it's depart nents.
