James W. Gum Is Elected President
 Of Lincoln Assn

The Lincoln Highway association has announced the election of James Newton Gum as president of the or ganization Mir. Gum is president of the United States Tire company. He takes up the duties as head of the Lin coin highway work as successor to F. A Seiberling, who felt unable to at tend longer to the responsibilities of the position.
 MT. Gum. as a director and founder of the Lincoln Highway association, has been in close touch with the aims and purposes of the organization. The United States Rubber company, through his interest and that of it's president, c. B. Seger, recently am nounced it's willingness to finance the construction of the ideal section" somewhere along the highway.
 In accepting his new office, MT Gum said: T know that the work of the association should be very much more effective and important now than ever before. and with the opportunities we have under the new conditions in po- lftical and industrial life, we should be able to accomplish & great good in stimulating tho interest and construct i've work in highway development throughout tho entire country"

Pierce-Arrolu Truck
 Very Accessible

Owners and managers of big motor truck fleets were guests at the Pierce Arrow Motor Car company's factory at Buffalo last week when service managers of the factory's nation wide chain of service stations held their annual convention. The fleet opera tors witnessed practical demonstra- tions of the manner in which the modern construction of Pierce Arrow Dual Valve trucks has decreased main tenance costs.
 Our engineers have made Pierce Arrow Dual Valve trucks so accessi- ble that repairs are accomplished with an ease and facility heretofore un- known," said F. J. Wells. head of the Pierce Arrow service organization. Where hours or days are required to remove, tear down and rebuild units of othe trucks, the same work Is ac- complished with almost unbelievable trucks.
 Proper design, quality materials and precise manufacture always have nomical maintenance which Pierce Arrows have enjoyed from the first, but now, with the refinement of the chassis, an exclusive accessibility compels a downward revision of up- keep costs.
 feature of the convention was an exhibit of the details of construction of the Dual Valve truck engine, which yields 30 per cent more power, gives the truck 50 per cent greater hill climbing ability and yet effects a 20 per cent decrease in gasoline consump- tion

Paine Says No.D Is
 Time To Work Hdrd

This Is the time for more and bet ter work, not oDly in the tire business but in any other business. Fred Paine. of the Paine Rubber Company was speaking. Paine's talk interested uS-
 "The odd thing about the whole present situation" he went on to state, "is that there is more business right now than ever before in the history of the country. There are more houses to be built, more roads to construct, more clothes to be made-in fact more Of everything to be manufactured and produced"
 'sWhen you think" he went on, .'of the amount of real work to be done in the world at this time, the figures ab- solutely stagger one. The country Is basically sound. We have more wealth, more raw materials. more of every thing than we ever had before in our country's history
 Now, what Is necessary is the hap py combination of capital and work. which results in the circulation of money, the starting anew of all the activities of industry. Work must be as willing to cooperate with capital as capital is with work. Each man must individualize his share of this big job of doing the work of the world ana employing the capital of the world.
 Tn our small way we are going to give better tire service than we have ever given before. We are going to do better repair work and more con- sistently advertise. Tn other words, the present should be occupied in all lines in laying the foundation of permanent and corresponding busi- ness. Just because business may be little dull" as they say, is no reason why we should reduce our standards of efficiency.
 Tn the tire business we are going to keep on kicking as hard as we can, just like the little frog that found himself in a dairyman's milk can. When he found there was no place to land. he started to kick, and kept on kicking until he had churned himself a roll of butter upon which to stand, thus saving his life.
 Now is the time to do the best and hardest work we have ever done"

Messner Making Real Indu C c m c ntS s On
 Utilitor Tractors

A special inducement sale to all farmers. gardners, country clubs, poul- trymen, truck gardners, nurserymen, and others. is being held by Cal Mess ner. to obtain distribution of his fam ous little Utilitor tractor.
 This little machine lyhich will do everything a horse will do without the necessary expense attending the latter, performs some of the most wonderful and least expected work ever seen e from a piece of machinery
 Some of the things it will do are as follows: mow lawns, grind cattle and chicken feed, run cream separator and churns. cultivate, break ground, blow, harrow. disc, seed, cut hay. saw wood, run lighting plants. wash clothes, pull a wagon to market, and anything else that requires power.
 Take a look at these specifications It is only three feet high, S4 inches lonE. 17h inches wide, weighs only 75C pounds. wi1 run at a speed of from one 10 four miles per hour and costs about one-fffth as much to keep up as a horse
 It is an ideal machine for the or chardist. It is just the thing for the nurseryman and the truck gardener while the poultryman can find many things to do with 1t.
 The sale carries with it special in- ducements fin the way of long time payments. which will enable any mar 10 possess one of these famous little tractors. A small payment down se- cures the machine and the balance is <fistributed out over a period of time suficient for the needs of almost any purchaser. This is particularly attrac- tive when the purchase price is about what a good horse brings these days.

.DE PALMA ENTERS
 SWEEPSTAKES BUT GAR NOT NAMED

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. Ralph De Palma, international star and one or Americas favorite race drivers, is the second to enter the ninth annual 500- mile International Sweepstakes of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. May 30. Eddie Hearne the last of the million
 aires and who has met De Palma in many a speed battle on road, track
 and hill, is the only one to precede Ralph in entering.
 In filing his entry De Palma has not named the car he will drive, but 1t Is
 generally believed that this will be
 Ballot from the Paris factory. De Palma
 has been driving the 'eight-in-lne"
 speedster for two years and will start
 the championship season at Los Ange-
 les, son Washington's birthday, at the
 wheel of the French car. He has also
 been selected by Earnest Ballot to cap
 tain his team of four cars in the French
 Grand Prix in July.
 De Palma gained favor of the speed fans in 1912 by defeat rather than vic-
 tory. The Italian American drove a
 Mercedes in the 800 nine years ago.
 For 495 miles he showed the way to all
 the American and foreign cars and drivers, only to have victory slip from
 his grasp and see $20.000 vanish, with
 the two laps of the brick course to go. His "dago luck" as he chose to desig- nate his misfortune made him the fav- orite of almost every fan.
 Three years later he set track rec ord and won the Indianapolis classic, after an almost seven hour battle with Dario Resta and his fleet Peugeot. This time DePalma again drove a Mercedes. While Ralph had perhaps five miles an hour less under the hood of his car he out -gamed Resta in driving and att tairfAd the ambition of every race driv-
 era 500-mile victory. Incidentally, no driver has ever twice won this event. DePalma, in making his entry has advised T. F. Myers, secretary-general manager of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway company, that he hopes to be the first to hang up two five-century victories, although he is not egotistical enough to state that he will win the
 event, which last year carried a total cash award of about s100,000.
 III luck last May was all that pre- vented DePalma from being the first to win a pair of Indianapolis races. The same was true in 1919 when he set the pace for the first half of the race. AL though De Palma has won countless races the fans admire him more for his l sport tsmanlike attitude nine years ago when victory was turned into defeat l because iron and steel could not stand the strain of the speed test on the brick
 oval for another four minutes.
 A decade ago crowd of 100,0o0 pre- l diction for almost any automobile race 1 or speed test would have been grounds to have the predictor placed under the l observation of an alienist. The Indian l apolis Speedway passed the century 1 thousand mark seven years ago and last year 125.00o fans passed through | the gates to see the international speed | classic. The seat sale for the ninth an- 1 nual 500-mile Sweepstakes opened | Monday, January 31. and indications are that a new worlds record will be | made by the 1921 five century.

Motor truck experts say these are the chief causes for bad roads:
 l. Overlooking of trucks.
 2. Poor road material and construc- ton.
 8. Speeding of trucks.
 4. "Unsprung weight" or weight of a loaded truck not sustained by springs
 California has just bought six load ometers to weight all motor trucks so that those found overloaded may be kept off the roads. New Jersey adopted this plan early last summer. Tt is an evidence of wisdom as well as justice toward all road users on the part of highway officials to keep load weights within reasonable bounds, says R. H. Salmons, of the motor truck committee of the National Automobile chamber of commerce.
 It isn't economy to load a truck be- yond it's capacity, he adds. "A truck will stand some overload; the manu- facturer refers to this as the factor of safety. It might better be called fac- tor of ignorance, for the additional strength of the truck is expected by the owner to support the additional load put on it due to ignorance." Don't blame the big truck, is the warning of R. A. Hauer. automotive l engineer for the Mack truck. With it's wider tires the pressure of | the large truck on given road area is pIdCliCdtly lfo Sd1Ic as lAdI VI lilc smaller truck says Hauer. l Another factor is speed. Tests made by the U. $ bureau of public roads have shown that wearing pressure on a road increases with an increase of speed. Since the smaller truck can go faster than the larger, taner con-
 cludes, it's the smaller truck hat does
 the greater damage.
 "The truth about the motor truck
 and the road," explains Hauer, sis that in practically all cases ascribed
 to the large truck the real cause of
 road failure has been some defect il;
 design and construction of the road,
 such as insufficient foundations, weak ening by frost, lack of proper drainage or the use of inferior materials. | "Unsprung weight" or the weight 1 not sustained by springs, helps break l up the roads. Tt has been found" says ! Haure, that a large capacity truck so designed as to have light unsprung sweight has a much lighter impact than a smaller truck having heavier un- sprung weight"
 'The road must be adapted to the load" concludes this engineer. To at | tempt to solve the problem by prohib- iting the use of the larger trucks is equivalent to the action of a railway 1 that, finding its roadbed and rails in- adequate for its increased traffic l should discontinue the use of powerful I locomotives. This would deprive the public of the service to which 1t is en- titled"

CAR SHORTAGE
 |S PREDICTED

CHICAGO, Feb. 12-(SpeciaD. Men prominent in the automobile industry predict a shortage of new automobiles this spring. But the condition this year will be different from 1920, when orders for popular cars were taken for delivery six months later.
 Last year, the shortage was due to the overwhelming demand in spite of all efforts of the motor car manufac- turers to meet it. I,nIs year it Is the result of a curtailment of production which had to come with the tightening of credit in the industry.
 If the present rate of production is not materially increased by spring, says Alfred Reeves, general manager of the national automobile chamber of commerce. there will not be sufficient cars for delivery to those who need them, between April and July"
 But production, say the manufactur- CTS, cannot start before the credit situ- ation is easier and costs of materials and labor have come down to a point below which it is not expected they will drop. Until it comes, cars must be made as orders for them are obtained or at a safe margin ahead of such or ders. When the rush for cars comes, then will the shortage be felt.
 AccOrulilg to EuWdru .. JOTudll, oi the Jordan Motor Car company, about 1,5000 0O0 cars will go out of service this year, most of the owners of which it is expected will buy new cars.
 'In 1920 it is estimated that sales were made to 1,476,000 new car buyers says Jordan. Normally there should be an increase of new buyers in 1921 T. |. Marshall of the Stutz Motol Car company, says there is only aboui l a 45-day supply of motor cars in the hands of dealers and makers.

PEDESTR|ANSTO LEARN HOW TO
 CROSS STREETS

NEWARK. N. J., Feb. 12-(SpeciaD. Nswark police department is teaching pedestrians how to cross the street. This is the object of the safety drive Instituted by Director William J. Bren- nan of the department of public safety and supervised by Traffic Captain Rell
 Every noon hour a police official visits a department store or factory and lectures on the pedestrians re- sponsibilty and hok. by a little more caution on the part of those who walk, street accidents may be diminished.
 Stress 10 laid upon the danger of jay walking and hecdlessness in crossing streets. The 1ay-walker must go, says McRell, and if 1t is found that lectures will not eliminate the evil, the Neward city commission may be asked to enact some ordinance making 1t unlawful to cross a street other than at a designat- ed crossing.

The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1921-02-11

old an American workman published
a pamphlet which contained all the
essence of Marks later teaching.
When Marx was eleven years old,
Thomas Cooper, of North Carolina,
published the theory of proletarian
domination. When Marx was eleven,
Brownson, the editor of The Boston
Quarterly Review, was publishing the
essence of what today we call Marx
ian Socialism. In this country, long
before Marx was known, great body
of people native to our soil, heirs
to the best American traditions, were
preaching what today we call Marx
ian Socialism. And when Marx was
just beginning as a young man right
in this city of New York and in Bos-
ton, men like Horace Greeley, Charles
A. Dana, Thomas w. Higginson, Ed
mund Clarence Steadman, these and
many more were preaching Social
ism, and sympathizing with them
were men like Nathaniel Hawthorne,
like Ralph Waldo Emerson, like
Theodore Parker, and many another.
I repeat, Socialism, whatever it may
be, is not product of Judaism, is
not product certainly of any Jewish
conspiracy. 1t is product of So
cial evolution; of economic conditions
that bear equally on Jew and Gentle,
on black and white, on the Latin,
on the Teuton and on the Slav.
1t is said Bolshevism is part of this
Jewish conspiracy, and I have before
me in the book called '"The Cause of
the Worlds Unrest, reprinted from
the London "Morning Post" a list to
sustain that charge, a list of fifty
names with a heading cunningly de-
vised to represent that these fifty
prominent Bolsheviki are nearly all
Jews. AS a matter of fact, as I look
In the fifty find that there are four
In the list I find that there are at
sonally as being leaders of the anti
Bolshevist movement in Russia and
throughout Europe. I observe that
from that same list are omitted the
names of almost all the influential
Bolsheviki except Lenin himself. I
look for the name of Bucharin and
I find it not. I look for the name
of Rakovsky and I find it not. I
look for the name of Miliutin and /
do not find it. looked for the name
of Raskalnikov and I do not find it;
for Latzis and I do not find it; for
Dzerkzhinsky and I do not find it;
for Gorky and I do not find it; for
Krylenko and I do not find it; for
Kalinin and I do not find it. These
men whose names I have called over
in this fashion are the intellectual and
the political leaders Of Bolshevism
in Russia, yet not one of their names
