SIMPLICITY NOW
 DEMANDED IN CARS
Manufacturer Has to Listen to
 Signs of Times

Endurance, freedom from repairs, simplicity, That is what the motor ist wants, and tnnt is what the mos tor cur manufacturer promises him as automobile development proceeds,
 Signs of this development appear in almost every new model presented this year. There are the individual step instead of the running board, more and easier control from the dash, rear signal lights, fuel econo- mixers and many other changes which make for ease and comfort in Fiding
 Development work during the coming decade" says Colonel J. G. Vincent, will be confined largely 10 Il eimpliiication and standardization of construction with view to securing greater endurance and freedom from repairs and adjustments"
 Motor SimpIiRcd.
 Most attention is being paid to the motor. for the smplincation of its parts and economy of operation.
 Scarcity of fuel in the future may send every present-day engine to the scrap heap to be replaced by q more suitable type.
 But until then, engineers are seek ing to bring motor and fuel costs down as low as possible.
 Eventually" says Colonel Vim cent, "the demand for greater fuel economy may develop, as it has ;n England and continental, countries, cars of less weight and horsepower.
 Already there is a movement in this direction. but until our public highways are materially improved do not believe it will be dominant factor"
 Changes in body design will de- pend on the public, is Colonel Vim cents opinion. There will be no un- warranted departures from present lines.
 Unless there springs up some pro- nounced public preference for some new motor car quality" he adds, 'the manufacturers efforts during the next decade will be invested in re- fining and perfecting the already existing design"

A SCHEME ALLEGED
 TO 'UNL0AD' STOCK
KrCpp Works Sells Shares to En-
 ployes--Un Rejects Plan

Essen, Germany, Feb. 2S.-Union labor has rejected plan proposed by the Krupp works, under which work men were to have purchased n spec ia issue of stock, with their savings, and were to receive certain ndminis- trative privileges, looking toward CO., operative management of the plants, according to the Krump announce ment.
 Union Rejects Plan.
 The resolution in which the plan was rejected by the krupp shop soviet declares that the Krupp man. agement intended to unload" stock on the workmen. and by creating capitalists among the laborers de- stroy the solidarity of the working classes.
 The labor leaders believed partici- patton in the management of the plants, as stock owners, could in nc manner lead to better economic re- latons with employers, and would endanger the status of the manual la borer in relation to the brain work CTS"
 Radical, Socialist and labor news papers give the Krupp firm credit for an attempt to alleviate the ''social problem" by promotion of q big fam ily of employees and employers but, nevertheless, generally approve the action of the Essen labor unions and express the hope that German labor will stand together against any .schemes to capitalize the working men and women or destroy their class solidarity"

TWO-GUN THUG
NEARLY SMOTHERS
MEN IN CLOSET
Holds Up Four While Con-
federateS Steal $4,000
Worth of FurS.

While one thug, armed with two
revolvers. held four men prisoner in
a closet so small that one of them al
most suffocated, two other robbers
this morning at $50 stole $1,000 worth
of fur skins from the establishment
Of Rubin Fessler, No. s84 Westches-
ter Avenue, the Bronx. The thieves,
who doubtless took advantage of the
fact that the trains of the Bronx Park
subway were rumbling overhead and
thus drowned any disorder they might
make, go taway with their plunder.
Fessler was arranging his window
display for the day when the first of
the thugs entered the shop. He
wanted skins.
AS Fessler opened the safe where
the expensive skins were kept he felt
two points dig him in the back and
heard the customer" say. "Don't
turn around. Keep on walking, If you
know what's good for you" In the
back room of the shop were Abraham
Bernicker, Joseph Freedman and ia
cob Fessler. cousin of the proprietor,
all busy on fur garments. They had
no idea what was going on in the
front part of the store.
For the fraction of a minute Fessler
did look back at the man who had
given him the peremptory command,
and the thug at once poked the two
revolvers against his body with a
reiteration of the order. go on into
the back room, and be quick about
it."
Fessler obeyed and as soon as he
entered the room the robber COM
manded the three men there to put ur
their hands. Then he drove them into
closet which would have been
forced the four into 1t. AS they went
in he saw a watch and chain hanging
from Bernicker's waistcoat and in
stantly appropriated 1t. With that
he jammed the closet door shut, tell
ing the prisoners that he would SHOOT
II one of them tried to get out.
After that there was the noise Of
feet in the shop and enough was heard
to indicate that two men had come
in and were cleaning out the safe.
The men in the closet waited unit
all noise in the shop had ceased an(
then ventured out. By this tim,
Freedman had almost collapsed, fol
there was no air in the closet. He wa.
helped out and an alarm sent to thu

development of the Governments

Shoals, Ala, was finally agreed upon
to-day by the House Military Com

the offers made by Henry Ford, the
