CADILLAC MAKES
ITS OWN CLASS

"That Cadillac has always stood,
and stands now, the world over,
in a class all its own" is the dec
laration Of N. M. Cudabac, of the
New Mexico Motor company, local
Cadillac distributors.
I'm Europe, and in England, es-
pecially," he says, ANY other
American car is rarely mentioned,
or even cons.Aassi, in comparison
with the Cadillac. This foreign
sentiment is but an echo, OF
course, of the esteem in which the
Cadillac is held by owner and non
owner alike in America.
ut is generally conceded that
the Cadillac of today has tremen-
dous motor car value. This great
value of the Cadillac--on which
its reputation rests--is its supe-
rior performance and that immun-
ity from the need of constant tin
kering, adjustment, overhaulins
and repairs which renders 1t
unique among motor cars in econ
omy."

Officers Much Trouble.

Kansas, City, Mo, Aug. g.
Bandits termed high jackers"
who are making a business of rid
ing freight trains in the wheat belt
of Kansas and certain parts of
Oklahoma robbing harvest hands
of their wages, are becoming more
bold and are receiving increasing
attention from local authorities in
those states, according to reports
today.
High iacker" activities, which
have been reported almost daily
throughout the harvest season,
reached a climax Wednesday night
when two Of the robbers attempt
eded to hold up a party of former
soldiers and harvest hands aboard
a freight train running between
Kechi and Furley, Kans, The ex-
soldiers, who had just been dis
charged from a Texas army camp,
began shooting and one man, said
to have been high jacher," was
killed and four of the former SOL
diers and harvest hands injured.
The remaining robber escaped af-
ter a terrific fight in which he
threw half a dozen of his oppon-
ents from the moving train.
With the number of complaints
from victims of the robbers grow
ing, officials of several smaller
Kansas towns were reported to be
investigating mysterious murders
in their localities on the theory
that the "high jackers" have
committed them. There have been
five or more unexplained killings
in the Kansas wheat belt in the
last month.
Some officials were said to be-
lieve the "high jackers" have left
the cities to prey upon harvest
hands as they are paid by the
farmers.

COSTS ON
PROPOSED LEvEE

c. r. Studzinski, sent report to the
city council and Advisory committee on
the proposed temporary levee west of
the city. Tho rough estimate of the
cost of the levee is $4,000. This levee
is not the Francisco street levee, but
another one to be built at 45 degree
angle with that levee.
The Francisco street levee is at right
angles with the river apd serves only
as dam to hold the water back until
1t is pushed out, and then only serves
to help the flood, according to the re-
port The new levee would be 1900
feet long and start from the bridge and
run in a north-westerly direction.
The jetties would cost 10000. the
dirt construction 5000 and the Stag
surface $1,000. This levee would per-
haps prevent another flood until the
permanent flood protection plan is
worked out and constructed.
