NASH ROAD TEST
AT KENOSHA PLANT

A circular road, one-half mile
in diameter, which, lies just back
Of the long rows of saw tooth
buildings that comprise the Keno
sha factory of the Nash Motors
company typifies the fact that in
the production of Nash cars Moth
ing is left to chance" That road
is just as much a part of Nash
manufacturing equipment as are
the battery of electric furnaces in
the heat-treating department and
the marvellous drop hammers Of
the forge shop.
The fact that close inspection
follows each operation throughout
the factory in the manufacture of
parts that go into the completed
car and that each part is REIN
spected after it has been assem-
bled with a coordinate part, and
that the entire car is inspected
after it leaves the assembly line,
does not satisfy the Nash Motors
company. Before a Nash car is
shipped to a dealer to be turned
over by him to the buyer the COM
pany makes sure by first hand in
formation that the car is in per-
feet condition.
Thus after the Nash Six leaves
the final assembly and trim shop
and is complete in every detail it
is taken Immediately out on the
testing road, where in the hands
of mechanic, trained by long eX-
perience to detect the slightest in
dication of improper functioning
of any part of the car, it is given
a rigid test
The tester, after driving the car
out onto the circular road, puts it
in low speed, then in second and
finally into high. He circles the
road many times, frequently alter
mating these speeds and as fire.
quently going into the reverse.
If he detects the slightest in
accuracy in the functioning of any
part he takes the car to the hos
pital," a special adjusting depart |
ment where the trouble is imme-
diately remedied. The car is then
taken out again by the tester and
driven over the track to make alb /
solutely sure that 1t is in perfect
condition.

LEFT SIDE FOR SAFETY

One Of the newest ideas regard
ing safety on the highways, espe-
cially at night, is the suggestion
that pedestrians on the left-hand
side of the road keep out of the
range or path of an automobile
approaching from the rear.

an extension lamp in and around
the car. An aluminium covered
foot rail, nickel trimmed, is fitted
in passengers compartment.
An electric lighter of fine quail
ty for cigars is handily placed on
the instrument board, also an s.
day keyless clock.
The steering wheel is finished
in American walnut with arms
also of walnut.
REQ royal blue is the standard
color of the phaeton with wheels
in French gray striped in deep
blue. Hub caps are fitted with

TO replace a rim on the wheel

certainly enthusiastically more support the provisional government. Ger tainly not more than cne in four, and pos sibly less, favor the republican, fight" Yet because of the Irish sympathy for the hunt ed, national characteristic, and their ale glance of many to the republis, handful of irregulars may move about at will and es- cape capture.
 MT. MacManus agrees with De Valera that the Irish people arc rerwhelmingly repubi- can. The treaty to many is merely one step towards the realization of their hope in time to win the republic MT. Mac Manus thinks the internecine war in : Ireland will end within year, because of the intense desire for peace, but the moral fight for a republic will go That is the sensible course to pursue, The Irish people have learned by bitter experience that they. cannot win complete autonomy by force.

concerns uniform planting by entire com munities of the same chosen variety, plant ing early and using such cultural methods as hasten-the maturity of the crop. It is known that varieties which are well adapted to one locality are not so well suited 10 an- other. The state and federal departments of agriculture are in possession of accurate information on these points and their a1- vice as to varieties is reliable.
 In the selection of varieues, one of the principal features desired is earliness, so that as much of the crop as possible may mature before the weevils become most numerous. Another feature is length of staple. Most farmers can add many pounds to their yield per acre by planting cotton of a little longer fibre than has been their GUS tom. The prompt picking of cotton as it natures insures protection against deteriora- tion and staining due to weather and ram. It protects against loss due to windstorms accompanied by rain. All these various ways of preserving the crop against the onslaughts of weather, weevil. and costly methods are being discussed at Memphis, and the result is awaited in prompt acceptance by farmers of the cooperative idea of crop production.

My Favorite Stories
 By IRWIN s. COBB
NARROWING DOWN TO THE FACTS

There were two brothers; truthful brother and brother who was the most irl- corrigible and persistent liar in the county. As a result of the latter's chronic embel- lishments of facts, the whole family was getting bad reputation.
 The truthful brother took him in hand.
 Look here, Bill" he said, you're dis gracing the name. This thing has got to stop The next time you start in to exag- gerate, just keep your eye on me When you begin to go too far I'll give you hard look and thatll be signal to you to begin soft-pedaling."
 The very next day the two brothers were in the company of group of their fellow citizens. The talk drifted to the subject of big city hotels. This was cue for the liar.
 'Speakin of hotels," he said, q know a hotel out in Californy that is 22 stories high, has 1000 rooms in it, eight dining rooms, IA bowling alleys, 22 swimming pools, 30 soda . water fountains, AS billiard halls and" here he caught hard look from the good brother-"and is three feet and half wide , Copyright. 1922 by the McNaught Syndicate Inc)

WILD GAME INCREASES

In the Tennessee valley they report extra large coveys of birds. The hunters have never found more game, nor have the woods and fields ever had more hunters in them enjoying the open air and the exhiliration of sport. In Sumter county, where the deer have been protected, sportsn4en kilien II males in two days. The Alabama streams are fuller of fish than in Zen years owing to restocking and the punishrten. of tyna- miters and other offenders. In southern Alabama ducks are to be had by anyone who desires them. There is game all over Alabama. There is plenty because there has not been unconscionabla. needless and reckless slaughter in the pas decade The. game laws of the state have vindicatej themselves owing to the nlsnner in which they have been administered. Those in charge of this department of conservation should continue to receive the enthusiastic backing of all true sportsmel and humani- tarans.

GERMAN POLICE METHODS

'J. Douglas Hoare, in the London Daily
 Telegraph.
 On your arrival Gin Bavaria), let us say, you go to report yourself to the police, who, by the way are now having the time of their lives in Bavaria. The German police, ,f course, always loved rothing better than getting to know everything they could abou. everyone who would stand it, and under the present regulations every stranger within their gates has to reveal to them his or her innermost secrets. They write down on long and complicated form who you are, what you are, why you are, where you were born, where you came from, where you are going, how long you mean to stay (they stand no nonsense about this; if you don't know your own mind they make it up for you), and various intimate questions about your percentage. And the gentleman who puts you through this inquisition takes your passport away from. you and refusessto give it up until you have disbursed several thousand marks.

Philosophy's needful thing
 In coping with life's ills; No matter what harsh fate may bring,
 The men of earnest wills May learn to laugh at each mishap And OCT hard luck prevail. lately met a certain chap
 Who found himself in jail. And yet his smile was cheerful quite,
 His manner debonair; You would have thought his heart was light And free from every care. Said he, Although in prison pent
 And here compelled to stay, I'm not consumed by discomfort,
 Nor wish to get away. No bill collectors call around,
 No agents may intrude; Inside these sturdy walls is found Unbroken quietude. I sink to slumber every night
 By this thought comforted, No jazz tunes will my dreams alright
 And rouse me from my bed; I'll hear no strident telephones,
 No infants fretful squalls, No voices raised in angry tones
 Of fierce domestic brawls. My words to you may strange appear
 I must acknowledge that; But it's more tranquil living here
 Than in a city's flat"

SENTIMENT IN IRELAND

The Irish Republican Bulletin publishes an article from Eamon de Valera in reply to- statement made in the Manchester Guardian that the Irish people mad accepted the Anglo-Irish treaty. De Valera asserts that "the Irish electorate did rot decide for the Free State last December, and has never decided for it, but, it has unequivocally de- cided for and ratified the republic at two general elections and maintained its choice through three years of terrihle suffering" The republican leader challenges the British government to abide by free pebescite of
 Writing in the current Forum, Seumas MacManus gives some interesting impress sions of what the bulk of the Irish people think about the republic and the Free State, which he gained by five months spent in Ireland during the present year. It is easy to see that MT. MacManus' sympathies lean toward the republic, and he may be sus>, pected of statements colored by his political views, but he offers what appears to be Q credible explanation of the ability of Irish irreguars to carry on a. guerilla warfare in defiance of the Free State authorities, al- though they afe. greatly outnumbered. h. cidentaly, MT. MacManus charges that they have been grossly misrepresented" in news sent from Ireland by the government party He says the difficulty the provisona. gov ernment is experiencing in capturing the irregulars is due to the attitude of the Irish people, republicans as well as treatyites.

RUSSIA AT LuSANNE

Soviet Russia and the Turkish nationalists tempt to take away international control of the Bosporus, the Dardanelles and the Sea of Marmora. The purpose of Russia in try ing to place the waterways connecting the Black sea and the Mediterranean under the absolute domination of Turkey is only too obvious. Under such an arrangement, Rus sia would be the real mistress of the Dar- danelles and the Black sea would become a Russian lake," She would thus realize an ambition which has played an important part in her foreign policy for generations.
 The mistakes of allied diplomacy are to Fblame for the Russo-T Turkish accord. Self interest drew them together and they now constitute problem for the allied powers which may become still further complicated by an alliance on the part of Russia, Turkey and Germany. While the allies were wrangling among themselves, what happened in the Near East? The Turkish nationalists ignored the Sevres treaty and established a new government atNAngora. With an eye on Constantinople and the Dardanelles, soviet Russia supported the Turks, who pro- ceeded to demolsh the Greeks in Asia Minor. Now we are seeing the results at Lausanne. Russia and Turkey regard the World war as closed incident. Neither will admit that any responsibility rests on Turkey for the part she played against the allies under German and Austrian leaders. All that has apparently been wiped out by the transfer of Turkish power from Constantinople to Angora and the establishment of a new gov ernment. But the allies will not forget Galhpol They are united in the determi- nation not to permit Turkey to escape the consequences of the help she gave Germany during the World war, simply because Mustapha Kemal Pasha, and not the Sultan, is now the head of the Turkish state and the capital has been shifted from the Bosporus D to Asia Minor. To do@that and allow the Turks to be the masters of the straits and adjacent waters would nullify much that the allies gained by terrible sacrifices during the war.
 M. Tchitcherin, the soviet leader at Lau- same. will formally protest against limiting Russia's participation in discussions of the Dardanelles question and other problems in the Near East, but Russia is in much the same position as Turkey. Neither has the right to make demands at Lausanne. Soviet Russia abandoned the allies at Brest-Litovsk and Turkey has never conformed to the Sevres treaty. It is significant that the Turkish representatives were inclined to ad- init foreign warships to the straits before Tchitcherin arrived at Lausanne. Now they want toe exclude all but Turkish vessels. The subserviency of Turkey to Russia is an ominous sign and it bodes no good to the Lausanne conference or the future peace of Europe. In the meantime the war be- tween Greece and Turkey has been oBscured by the larger problems in the Near Eastern controversy. The Lausanne conference has become an international struggle for con trol of the Dardanelles.

TO PROTECT THE COTTON CROP

Now that farmers have so successfully organized for the profitable marketing of ,tDeir cotton, it becomes of increasing i'm portance that they cooperate as completely in effective methods of crop production and 1eevil control. Many cotton planters have been following the most advanced methods of controlling the boil weevil, but the great majority of growers have not been cooper ating. Success in weevil control will not come until practically all farmers join in tha work.
 Of especial interest, therefore, is the con ference now going forward in Memphis looking to greater unity of effort along an Established program of betterments of cotton froduction. The fight against the weevil IT both direct and indirect. It isydirect as fax as concerns the picking of infected G4usres, the application of poison, tae early
