1he Oakland chassis Is distinguished Tor Its
combination of Gghtness and strength-it
has for its foundation rugged 6N-inch deep
steel frame.
This frame, reinforced by four very heavy
cross-members, lends staunchness to the
entire car, and forms rigid support for the
body that will not weave or sag.
Every detail of the Oakland chassis is
similarly stout and lasting, its whole structure
rejecting the Oakland policy of embodying
in its product the latest accepted engineering
practice.
This chassis plays an essential part in
delivering the Oakland owner measure of
combined efficiency and low cost which we
believe is without rival in any other auto
mobile.
The Roon.y and Comfortable Body
Because of the compactness of the Oakland
engine, the Oakland Sensible Six open car
has the roomiest body for its wheelbase of
any automobile built.
This bod " is of the composite type, being
constructed of enduring metal over a strong
wood frame.

complete tieup in street car traffic.
Equipment purchased on the install

taken away from the company by
the General Electric company OF
Schenectady, N. Y.
Judge Martin Wade issued an or
der in federal court Friday giving
the electric company the right to

seizure, scheduled to start immedi-
ately, will mean that the car COM

A confession OF judgment of a
claim of $68,46674 and interest was
filed by the General Electric COM

railway company since January 10,
1917. Charles I. Maxwell, receiver
for the railway company, is in Chi

Washington, May 15,-After an

In making General Perslliug chief

Weeks removes the possibility OF a

General Pershing will devote himself
TO war organizations problems,

Major General Harbprd, as exec

will have supervision over the ad-
ministrative activities of the War
department under chief of staff,
handling such matters directly with
the secretary OF war and leaving
General Perslling free to devote his
time to organization and training of
the army and allied matters. This

Passes House 269 to 90

Washington, May l5.-Thc Tin
cher bill to regulate dealings in
grain futures was passed today by
the house and sent to the senate.
The vote was 2o9 to o.
The measure is designed to abol-
ish the practice in grain markets OF
puts" and calls" ''ups" and
downs" and "indemnities" by levy
ing tax OF 20 cents bushel on such
transactions. A similar tax is pro-
vded on contracts for future deliy-
cry, made outside OF contract mat
kets' to be designated by the sec
retary of agriculture, except when
the seller is the actual possessor OF
the grain.
Grain Pit May Close.
Chicago, May l5.--The Chicago
Board OF Trade, the worlds greatest
grain market, may withdraw from
business if the Tincher bill to reg
ulate dealings in grain futures. which
was passed today by the lower house
of congress, becomes law, Joseph
P. Griffin, president of the board,
declared in statement tonight.
"While | do not speak with au-
thority for any exchange excepting
the Chicago Board OF Trade" the
statement said, at rs my deliberate
judgment that the grain exchanges
of the country will voluntarily with
draw from business and close their
market places rather than submit TO
the intolerable. unfair and arbitrary
features of this bill. The exchanges
do not protest regulation, and if there
be of evil in their business, they
have no objection to legislation il
they themselves fail to eradicate such
evil.
Favored by Farmers.
"The Tincher bill, as originally
drafted, met with the approval OF
representatives of the farmers, mil
lers, country and terminal grain
dealers and the grain exchanges of
the United States. This favorable
expression was predicated upon the
theory that the bill would be pre-
sented to congress with certain
amendments which were accepted by
the author of the bill, as we'll as the
house agricultural committee.
Following open hearings. the sec
retary OF agriculture prevailed upon
the committee to redraft the pending
bill SO as to delegate to the secretary
of agriculture arbitrary powers
without parallel in the history of
legislation in this country. With
this bureaucratic and undemocratic
principle OF government added to the
bill, it was presented to the lower
branch of congress and, according

body were advised that the bill, as

as we'll as that of other interests
concerned.
