because OF the speed most motorists
make renders il impossible for occu-

GERMAN JOURNAL
HITS YANK VETS
Attack is Made on American
Troopers by Newspaper
Organ of Wirth.
BY FRANK r. MASON.
Especial to The News Times)

BERLIN. Oct. 24.-Frequent lau-
datory articles in the German press
contrasting the behavior OF the
American troops of occupation in
Coblenz with that OF the French
and British forces have proven too
much for the Germania, Chancellor
Wirth's organ. to bear. In leading
article by staff reporter, the Ger
mania tries to show that the Amer
leans aren't as angelic as they have
been painted.
1T is a common impression that
the conditions in American occupied
territory are more favorable and
bearable for the German population
than in the French or British areas.
This belief that Americans have not
caused the population in their zone
as much annoyance as it has suffer
ed in neighboring areas is far from
true. Unfortunately one must say
that the case is quite the opposite"
Cites Many Atrocities"
Germania then follows with a
long article on the inexorable de-
mands OF the American officers; the
leading indictments in the list Of
atrocities run as follows:
1. AN American officer demand
ed that one OF the rooms in his lodg-
ing be ref1nished with new wallpa-
per. His wife picked out the wall
paper, which cost $50 marks a roll.
which any German would consider
expensive and luxurious. After
half a year the American woman
decided that the tails OF the Birds OF
Paradise printed on the wallpaper
were Of an unpleasant yellow color.
She demanded that the city COM
mandant TO order a painter, who
reprinted the tails: the question OF
the cost, naturally, meant nothing
TO her.
2. Another landlady complains
that a family consisting of two per-
sons requires no less than 80 tow
els and II to Is tablecloths month

Soldiers Assault People.
g. "A sad chapter in the history of
the occupation is made up Of the
! daily assaults on the population by
Americans, especially after the first
/ Of the month, when they have re-
| ceived their pay. Too free use OF
alcohol is in many cases the cause.
| The American authorities have II in

undisciplined and barbarous condi-

Portable, but the baby will have collie

Exercise on the part OF the mother
is essential 10 the well-being Of her
child. Many a mother feels that the
arduous duties Of the household are
the equivalent OF necessary exercise
This is fallacious. The mother should
have a little out-of-door exercise in
addition. This should not take the
form Of a lazy stroll: half an hour
Of rapid walking will be stimulating
and helpful. Sunshine is needed.
She will return from sun and air

work.
If the bowel movements of the
mother become upset or irregular
there will be similar trouble in the
health OF her baby. Diarrhoea and
constipation are due TO faulty feed

Frequent bathing is important.

days. There must be exceptional

cerned. They are. TO be washed be-
fore and after every feeding, using
boracic acid solution for this pur-

Finally. let me urge upon the
nursing mother the Importance of
sleep. She needs at least eight hours
Of restful sleep in a cool, well-ventil-
ted room. When nursing time comes
let her sit up while the baby is feed
ing.
She shouldn't take him into her

hour or more.
The mother should make a bust

a business OF getting the health

II is not alone what the baby eats

With all the sacrifices connected

sLvERTowNs INCLUDED IN
THE zoe PRICE REDUCTIONS

Motorists will all be glad 70 @now
that the famous Silvertown Cord
Anti-Skid. Safety Tread Tires are in.
cluded in the recent 20 per cent price
reduction which brought tire prices
back to pre-war basis. Among tires
Silyertown is the name that instantly
conveys the thought of the highest
quality Motor ear manufacturers
and dealers are quick to emphasize to
their prospects that their car is equip
ped with Silvertowns. knowing that
neither explanation nor argument is
necessary
This reduction brings Goodrich pric-
es to a point / 8 per cent below the
pre-war schedules. as represented by
the 1913 level. 1t IS rather startling
to find that in 1920 tire prices were
li5 per cent high~y han the Goodrich
prices today
Herbert Hoover. Secretary Of
Commerce. has recently suggested
that when price reductions are made
present prices should be shown. com
pared with the prices on same article
one year ago. IN the case Of Good
rich this would show that last Novem-
Der tires were reduced about IS per
cent and on Mas 2nd Goodrich re-
duced prices on every size and style
of their tires including Silvertown 20
per cent.
A tangible expression of the
greater mileage service now being
built into tires is reflected by the
higher basis Of adjustment generally
used by the leading companies Thus.
il tire proves defective today it is
adjusted, under the Goodrich plan. on
the basis Of 5000 miles If it il a Fab
rio, and 5000 miles If it is of Cord
construction. Contrast this with the
adjustment basis in use a few years
ago, i. e, $500 miles. and il is easy
10 comprehend the great progress
made in tire manufacture.
II is not a far-fetched conclusion to
say that tires today give from so per
cent to 100 per cent greater mileage
than they did few years ago. There
fore, IL the tire companies were sell
ing mileage today at the 1915 price
level. tires would actually cost from
s5. 90 to $500 more than at present
The conclusion is obvious, therefore.
that based on comparative service
tires cost less today than ever before.
