NOTED ENGINEER
TO VISIT PULLMAN

c. Z. Drayer of Chicago, pational
secretary Of the American Associa-
ton of Engineers. win visit Pullman
and the State College of Washington
chapter of the association on Sep
TENDER II.
Mr.. Drayer has been actively en-
gagged in engineering society work
for the past nine years. He was one
of the pioneers in the awakening Of
the profession to the need OF its TAX
ing part in the solution of political
and business problems as contrasted
with the purely technical field
The American Association OF En-
gineers was organized in 1915 and
since that time has grown to a mem
bership of over $4,000. 1t is inter
ested in the engineer instead of en-
cheering and its work in ethical
practice, licensing, employment
compensation and other activities
has been invaluable to the profess
sion.
The State College chapter is a stu
dent section organized in the spring
of 1921. Members of the student
body and faculty in any of the
branches of engineering and archi-
lecture are eligible for membership.
1t is hoped that as many as possible
will take advantage of the opportun-
ity to hear Mr.. Drayer, although his
visit is unavoidably scheduled a week
before the opening of college.

BARN, AUTOMOBILE, COW
DESTROYED BY FIRE

The barn on the James Emert
property, in the northwestern part Of
the city, was destroyed by fire Mon
day evening, with all it's contents.
including an automobile and COW.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
but the flames are believed to have
started from the electric wiring. the
current having been turned on only
a short time previous to the fire for
the first time in several months The
current was cut off, however. before
Mr.. Emert left the barn. about two
hours before the fire was discovered.
The barn was valued at upwards of
$500 and was insured for 500. The
automobile was a Maxwell, owned by
Ora c. Emert, and was total loss,
with insurance in the amount of
500. The COW had been purchased
only the day previous. There were
few bales of hay in the barn, to-
gether with some cans Of paint. and
it is possible that spontaneous COM
bustion may have caused the fire, al
though the wiring theory appears to
present the more probable cause. The
blaze was spectacular one and at
traeted many onlookers, the entire
structure being burned TO the ground
in less than 10 minutes. Together
with slight damage done to the house
and trees by the intense heat, the to-
tai loss is approximately $500.

business The automobile industry has regained its sta

present price cuts have accelerated buying in many cases.
but it may be safely said that the industry is travelling
sereney in spite of the opinions of few who feel that
todays price reductions presage another rough season
Accessories in many have increased in price
standard equipments have climbed 10 per cent in many

MOTOR HELPS TO SPREAD
HUMAN UNDERSTANDING

In the pleasant days OF old when
every man was law unto himself
and king in his own family
strangers Jared III when they fell
into the hands of a strange family
or tribe. says a writer in Motor.
Hospitality in that prehistoric time
As man learned to harness to his
service the beasts about him and
began to journey abroad. his under
standing of his fellowman deepened
and gradually ideas of hospitality be-
gan to find a Judgment in his cramp-
ed brain. And IL is a fact that hos
pitality is one of the Distinguishing
marks Of our modern civilization.
This understanding that all
strangers are not hostile is simply
the result of increased travel In it's
brief existence the motor car has
contributed UNNECESSARILY to this
happy growth of tolerance. Even
more than the railway train and tn q
steamboat, the motor car promotes
human circulation and free inter-
course.
When the time comes that every
man has his own private transporta-
ton system, which carries him
abroad and into close association
with his fellowmen, there will be an
immense development over even our
present comparatively well-developed
sense of friendliness for strangers.
which will some day grow into the
positive universal amity that will end
war and it's evils.

Started as Buick Branch Man,
ager, Retires as President
of Cadillac Company

News that r. II. Collins, probably
the oldest member of the General
Motors Corporation in point OF serv-
Ice. resigned as president and gem
eral manager OF the Cadillac Motor
Car Company on January IL, became
known last Thursday when his res
ignation went into effect
Mr.. Collins began his career in the
early days as general manager of the
Kansas City branch of the Buick
Motor Company. Through series of
promotions he became. several years
ago, the absolute dictator OF the Cad
lilac Motor Car Company policies, has
activities resulting in several impress
sive additions to his long list o.
achievements in the manufacturing
selling. and financial departments OF
the automobile industry.
He doubled the company's yearly
sales revenue; opened a branch house
In Chicago, whose business expanded
so quickly that. within less than a
year. 1t was necessary, to more than
double the already immense floor
space OF the buildings; planned and
finished in Detroit a new sales and
service building. described as the
most beautiful and complete structure
of its kind in the world. and designed
and erected a new Cadillac factory
that is said to be the worlds most
modern automobile plant.
Mr.. Collins manufactured Cadillac
type that, after the most critical
tests in the world war, was officially
chosen as the standard seven-passen-
ger car of the United States Army,
Navy, and Marine Corps. The cur
rent type Cadillac. designed and
manufactured solely under the direc-
ton OF Mr.. Collins. has been declared
by foreign automotive authorities 10
Re without an equal in motor car
dependability.
1t is a significant fact that, during
his entire service, there was never
even a suggestion of a strike or labor
disturbance in the Cadillac plant.
This record resulted from his inti-
mate. personal friendships with his
co-workers in all departments, which
created a spirit of loyalty in the
manufacturing and selling organiza-
ton that is unique in Industrial his
tory.
While Mr.. Collins independent
means would enable him to retire
from active business at this time,
he Is still young man and 1t Is ex-
pected that the many close friend
ships which he has engendered dur
ing his Cadillac connection and pre-
yious affiliations will prompt him to
continue his activities as a prominen I
figure in the automobile industry.

is the present.

Steadily the Lincoln Highway en-
terprise is marching toward the goal
OF complete success. The work In
1920, described in the well-printed
and finely illustrated brochure issued
by the Lincoln Highway Association.
is notably creditable record OF
achievement
the fact is taken into account that
road construction in recent years has
had to reckon with increased cost of
labor and materials.
But all OF the extra expense Of the
Lincoln national thoroughfare docs
not come under the head of high
prices. A Significant feature of the
report Is the statement that OF last
years expenditures made by States
for the Lincoln Highway, a great pro-
portion had it's cause in the durability
of the work done.
Much of the road building and road
repair represented construction of tn
highest quality-the kind designed to
make good in its relations to heavy
traffic OF the future, and to do this
with a minimum allowance for eX-
pense of upkeep.
That is the right way to 60 about
the business. Makeshift expedients,
which almost never vindicate them
selves in any sort Of undertaking.
have no excuse for being tolerated
in so monumental a task as the estab-
lishment of a coast-to-coast highroad.
The very name of the route Is a pro-
test against improvisation. Lincoln
did nothing with precipitation-he
built for all time.
Better far that the Lincoln High
way be slower in attaining compile

is NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of the finished
Job. Thousands Of miles of road make
an impressive showing. But that bril-
liant perspective would be spoiled II
II were to turn out that any con-
siderable part of the work were slip
shod.
As gratifying a note As Is sounded
in the summary recently issued by
the Lincoln Highway Association IL
it's emphatic insistence on permanent
construction. That is a strong incen-
tive to public support and a voucher
to States. legislatures and localities
that the money and effort bestowed
on the Lincoln Highway are directed
to the best uses and constitute an
investment both for tho living gen

DEMONSTRATION OF
AUT0SN0W UNIQUE
Lafayette Allows Prospective
Purchaser to Drive Car Over
Week End.

There are many forms OF demon
strations" offered the prospective pur-
chaser OF an automobile. In the early
days the prospect was invited to take
a ride" Later he was urged to drive
himself. with the salesman or demon
strater seated at his side. But today,
the man or woman who Is preparing
to purchase high-grade car, Is apt
to be surprised at the offer OF some
distributors.
The Lafayette Motors Company. for
instance, learns from its distributor
that one of the most satisfactory
meth DDS of demonstration Is to turn
a car over to the prospect for week
end or special trip. Naturally In
some instances. the prospect hesitates
to accept the offer. not wishing to AS
sumo the responsibility of such nne
car.
This is overcome. usually. by the
reminder that the demonstrated Is
fully insured and that only complete
confidence in the cars reliability aad
dependability causes the salesman 10
rest ali opportunity of sale with the
service that the car will deliver under
the prospects hands
j. Curtis Walker, of the Walker Mo-
tor Company. local distributor Of the
Lafayette, offers similar observations
about this policy. THE Lafayette
distributor can we'll afford to let de-
cision rest entirely with the prosper,
he says. Such favorable conclusions,
reached from actual experience, are
more fixed than any that might come
from the suggestions Of salesman.
THE Lafayette distributor gives
conclusive evidence of his faith in the
car and such confidence Is certain to
affect the prospect who experiences
the Performance and dependability Of
this fine car"
