CAR PRODUCTION
ON THE INCREASE

Further increases in the produc-

these closed cars have been on the
market the company has been con-

satisfied, even though production has
been several times increased, accord

D0D6G BROTHERS
business SEDAN

With this car Dodge Brothers have literally created
new type of sedan.
They have combined open car ruggedness with closed
car protection and snartness-
They have demonstrated once for all, that sedan
can be as practical and almost inexpensive an
open touring car.
The body is built of handweded steel because sted
is sturdy, and will take permanent, oven-baked
finish eliminating forever the cost of repainting.
The seats upholstered in attractive, genuine
Spanish blue leather, because leather will wash and
wear.
To further enlarge the cars usefulness the seat
back and side cushions, frame and foot rest
quickly removable, giving sixty-four cubic feet OF
flat loading space in the compartment. Tho
manifold made possible by this unique feature
readily imagined.
The top and quarters of non-rumble, fabrfo
construction conforming with the present attractive
vogue From cord tires to curtain cords the i1ttnGa
inside and out, are distinctive and complete.
In fact every detail of the car emphasizes its st-
ing adaptability to business well as social usa.

600 ASSEMBLE
FOR CHARITY
DANCE OF re.
$500 Collected to Be Used in
Buying Milk for
Children.

With approximately 300 complies
present at the benefit dance for un-
dernourished children given under the
auspices of the Red Cross at the Palm
room at Hotel Rainbow Wednesday
night, it was estimated that at least
500 would be raised to establish a
milk fund for the school children and
others in the county, who are NAL
nourished. Miss Isabel Brown, who
with Mrs. r. e. Williams, has been
handling the sale of tickets, stated
Wednesday evening that the success
of the dance was assured. 1t will be
one of the outstanding charities of the
year, she said, and expressed the hope
that many children would be benefit
ted through the expenditure Of the
fund.
The dance was one Of the few that
have been given at the Rainbow this
season. The committee expressed
their appreciation of the support and
cooperation that were given to make
the affair a success.
Mrs. Harriet Carrier, executive sec
rotary of the Red Cross, will have
charge Of dispensing the fund and will
use it as needed. Last year a SINH
lar fund was established and many
children, who were found by the ply
steal examination to be underweight,
were given milk, which in many cases
resulted in their attaining a normal
physical condition.

OHIO LEGISLATORS
SEEK TAX REVISION
Old Age Pension and Wages
for Women Due for
Discussion.

Columbus, O.-(Correspondence OF
The Associated Press. Odd age pen
sions, a minimum wage for women
and revision of the taxation laws are
among the measures which will con
front the Ohio legislature, which con
venes January 1. An attempt to abol-
ish the public utilities commission and
to obtain passage of a uniform traffic
code to lessen automobile accidents,
especially in the cities. also are nclud
ed in probable proposals.
The old age pension bill was mi
tiated by the Ohio State Federation
of Labor, has been filed with the sec
rotary Of state and is expected to be
the first measure introduced. Should
it fail of passage it will go to q
referendum at the next general cleo
ton. A measure providing for a mini
mum wage for women passed the low
err house of the last general assembly,
but was turned down by the senate.
1t will again be introduced, according
to it's advocates.
Revamping of the tax laws probably
will be the chief problem before the
legislators. municipalities are de-
handing a more flexible system of
distributing their revenues as well as
an opportunity to obtain more funds
for operating expenses. Governor
elect r. V. Donahey, during the cam
paign, advocated the abolition of all
state tax levies and reductions in local
revenues, and his initial message to
the legislature is expected to deal
largely with this subject.
Home rule advocates are behind the
movement to abolish the public utili
ties commission which has control
over utilities in municipalities. They
desire this power to be vested in the
municipality.
The overwhelming defeat of the
beer and wine amendment to the con-
st;tution at the recent election pre-
cludes the enactment of any material
changes in the prohibition enforce
ment laws.
~Governor-elect Donahey is not ex-
peeted to announce his complete legis-
lstlve program until after his induc-
ton into office. Both branches of
the assembly are overwhelmingly re-
publican. but some members have
pledged their support to the governor
elect, a democrat, and are known to
favor many of the measures he advo-
Gated in the campaign.

UNLOADING DEVICE HAS
 CAPACITY OF 400 TONS

Mobile, April s.-(Special.) )-Tests on the new government unloading equipment here today revealed that while the guaranteed capacity of the
 tower Is 400 tons an hour, it was an actual capacity of 500 tons an hour, according to an announcement of Major Ear, North this morning. The increase over the guarantee makes the terminal one of the most rapid handlers of coal in the country. The tests yesterday were successful, and Major North will formally turn the unit of the plant over to H. D. De- Bardeleben, federal manager of the barge line. by letter early next week.
 The unloading equipment will be nut into service immediately. and will he used while the re-loader is still under construction. When this is completed the entire plant will be put through a regulation test, talk ing about 5000 tons of coal from bargers along the terminal wharf. placing it in storage bins, and then reloading it into the hold of vessel

BRYCE SHOWED A
 SENSE OF HUMOR
Band Confused Tunes, But Englishman Laughed
 at Incident
By Associated Press

Tampa, Fla. April s.-The sense of humor possessed by the late viscount Bryce. formerly British am bassador to the United States, who passed away recently in England, was strikingly illustrated at ban quet rendered the statesman here some years ago by the Tampa board of trade.
 The orchestra at the hotel where the banquet was held was composed of Tyrolese. none of whom could speak English. Willis B. Powell. formerly widely known middle west ern and eastern newspaper and ad- vertsing man, then secretary of the board of trade, was charged with the preparation of the musical pro gram and he undertook to instruct the orchestra leader that when the toastmaster did the honors to Great Britain and the ambassador and the assemblage arose and lifted glasses for the toast, the orchestra should play God Save the King" To ba certain that the leader understood his instructions Powell whistled a few bars of the British national anthem.
 Moment Arrived
 The suspicious moment arrived. The toastmaster feelingly spoke of the cordial relations between Great Britain and the United States, prot posed toast to the mother country and her ambassador. the company arose-and the orchestra burst out with "There'H Be Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight"
 The guests were struck dumb ana all eyes turned toward MT. Bryce. That gentleman began to laugh. He laughed until the tears streamed down his face.
 When the orchestra concluded it's rendition of the air so popular with the army and navy during the Span ish- American war the party applaud ed loudly and the musicians. feeling highly honored by the acclaim, play ed it again.
 MT. Bryce was so greatly amused at the incident he took steps to see that the newspapers in Great Britain recorded it and from that source it went all over the world.

WILL BORE INTO ACTIVE VOLCANO Scientists Will Examine Vol cano of KiIauea in
 Hawaii
By Associated Press

Honolulu, T. H., April 8.-Ex- tensive drillings into the great active volcano of kilauea, on the Island of Hawaii, will be undertaken during 1922 in an endeavor~ to determine the heat of the volcano, the quantity of steam underneath. the minerol con stitutents and the solution of other related questions. Prof. T. A. Jaggar, Jr.. government volcanologist at Ha- wall, announced here today.
 A fund of sS,000 has been raised to defray the expense of the experi- ments. s3,000 having been contribut- ed by John Brooks Henderson, scien- sist of Washington, D. C., and the re- mainder having been given Ly Hilo and Honolulu business men.
 The places of most interest are where the ground is hot from recent or ancient volcanic activity" Profes- sor Jaggar said in explaining the pro- posed drillings. "Borings will be undertaken at the sulphur banks. al several places in the bottom of Kilauea crater, and in the region of recent lava flows at Kau desert. It is aimed to penetrate the surface where the lava flows are of known date so as to learn what changes of temperature underground have taken pldces With the passage or tune. rms is the most important scientific and practical problem involved in the borings-how hot is the volcano and what are the steam and water con dltions under an active volcano?
 The practical side of the knowl- edge of underground temperature which the borings will give, depends on what is learned as to chemical ac- tivity which maintains the high tenn perature in such a boring after the ground is opened to air. If high temperatures are maintained so, pos sibly at red heat. for years 1t would be possible to utilize the heat for power"
 Kilauea now is unusually quiet but a "liyening ED in March, at the equi- nox, is expected" Professor Jaggar said. He said he based this prediction on statistics of former activities. Ten years ago the yolucano was in the same condition as now. he said. Then there was lava rising in Septem- Der and one in March.
 We had the rise last September and believe 1t likely that it will re- occur in March," he said.

 Washington, April 8.--All the poli- ticians and especially the senators and representatives are vastly in- trigued with the wireless telephone. But who would not be fascinated by the idea of broadcasting ones most eloquent thoughts to so much of the wide, wide world as cared to listen in?
 When it comes, however, to adopt ing the radio phone to practical cam paign purposes there are certain com plications which give the politicians pause.
 Suppose for instance that 6 repub- lieAn audience should be sitting some night waiting to hear a distinguished republican candidate plead his cause by radio. and suppose some mischiev- ous democrat, aware of the republican plans, should start talking to that same audience first. The audience could not put him out" for they wouldn't know where to find him. It would be supposed of course that he was phoning from some point near the distinguished republican. But no bouncer could eject him from the hall so long as he kept sending on the republicans agreed wave length.
 Or something like this might hap pen:
 A VdSL auulenCe IS aSSeHDleu, eager not only to hear the radiophone It. self but to revel in the achievements of the republican administration. After period of tuning the expected voice speaks;
 Ladies and gentlemen: The grand old party has behind it record of which 1t is justly proud" "Buzx, br-br-br, bang!
 Ladies and gentlemen: The grand old party is grand old fake.
 Hey, didn't say that. Get off my wavel"
 ''Thia as . free wave and a free country. Ladies and gentlemen: The democratic party deserves to be re- stored to power in state and nation"
 "Oh, ratSi"
 But by this time the radio director for the evening has tuned up to a concert from Pittsburg or San Fran cisco and the political meeting goes flooey.
 Of course. some kind of a gentle mons agreement might be entered into to keep the democratic and re- publican waves from clashing or in- terfering, but the way the campaign Is starting out it looks as if gentle mems agreements would be an un-

Of course, America makes and buys more automobiles than the rest of the world; and per capita the middle west buys more than the rest of the country. The Kansas and Illinois and Iowa farm CTS generally have automobiles enough to give every person in their states seat in an automobile--one car for every five people.
 The high percentage of saturation of the automobile in this country IS unbelievable by Europeans. In Eu- rope the peasant knows the automo- bile only by it's dust.
