for tho bonus bill and Congression-
man, Frank l.. Greene TOOK the

very pronounced views on the sub
ject. 1t matters little which side
of the bill one favors-criticism is.

take off his hat oboth Mr.. Dale
and Mr.. Greene for publicly going
on record and voting according TO
their own convictios. Political his

it about time for the dealers to

sell transportation, for that and
nothing else is what we have for

BARR ATTENDS
SHOW in AUTO
BUILT in 1899
Dayton, Ohio, Man Goes
to Chicago and Wins
Oldest Car Record

John Barr of Dayton, Ohio, at
tended the Chicago Automobile
Show as a guest of the manage
ment because he owns a LocOmo-
bile of 1899 manufacture that is in
good condition.
Recently the show management
offered a free trip to the Chicago
show for the owner Of the oldest
car in good condition that was a
regular manufacture of an exhibi-
tor at the show at the time the car
was produced. More than 200 en-
tries for this competition were re-
ceived. but most of these were
cars manufactured in 1901 and
1902. Several very old cars were
reported that were built by nom
exhibitors at shows. Oldsmobiles
and Cadillacs were the chief en-
tries. In reaching the decision,
members of the award committee
found much difficulty in verifying
manufacturing data at the factor
les, but in the end there appeared
to be no doubt that Bars car
was the oldest reported.
Louis Disbrow never frowned so
ficrcelv: Barney Oldfeld never
pritted his cigar more determindly
than when driving in the spectacu-
lar race of these old cars staged in
Chicago preliminary to the Chic
ago Automobile Show.
Disbrow was at the rudder of
1900 Oldsmobile and Barney guild
ed the destines of the earlier Lo-
comobile.
The first race was called off be-
cause some Of the enthusiasts grew
so excited they decided to add
man-nower to the rear of the au
eomohiNs. The second race was
entirely above board. Barney
scorched his tires irving to zig
zag moro power out of his car than
was ever nut into it. Disbrow just
eXuded will power into his car,
with the result that when the
white fac dropped, both crossed

Head of School Committee Believes First Step Should Be Taken By
 That Organization

Discussing the High school boys row that took place in the Y. M. c. A. building Friday night, alleged to have been precipitated by the mem- bers of a fraternity because two of its members had disobeyed its rulings, Judge Bernard F. Gaffney, chairman of the school board, today expressed regrets that any High school pupil had acted the part of thug.
 Asked if the school board would take action, the chairman said he had received no definite information in the matter He doubted if the Y. M. c. A. could afford to allow the occurrence to go unnoticed and ex- pressed himself as of the belief that the authorities, if they were in pos session of the principals names as has been reported would furnish the police department with that informa- ton. The first step he felt was for that organization to take.
 In the many years that he has been connected with school affairs he could recall no incident that par alleled the latest fraternity outbreak, he asserted.
 General Secretary c. H. Barnes of the Y. M. c. A., had only the fol- lowing comment to make:
 Tt occurred in the only public room in the building, and I don't see what we can do about it.'

 Tt was not necessary to hurry" Mrs. Mouat said, "inasmuch as the fire was on the tenth floor and we had ample time to return to our room to see if anything had been left behind.'
 The Bridgeport and New Haven delegates to the convention were on the ninth floor of the hotel. They were warned to leave their rooms i'm mediately and not to take time to stop for their baggage. It is possible that the baggage of these delegates will be badly damaged by water. Sev- eral of the state D. A. R. officers were also in rooms on the ninth floor. Mrs K. J. Vance and Miss Agnes Vance were also on this floor, an. lost much of their personal belong ings.
 Mrs. Mouat said that there was no panic at the hotel and guests cared for themselves as best they could. The elevators were not operated dur Ing the lire and it was necessary for persons on the upper floors to walk downstairs to the main lobby and the Peacock Alley" where everyone con- gregated.
 The New Britain delegates with many others went out on the streets where they watched the fire for a short time and then took rooms al the Washington hotel Mrs. Mouat , had the highest praise for the eff 2iency of the Washington fire depart nent and the very capable way in which the fire was handled.
 People who had come to witness he fire were kept back several blocks rom the hotel, by the policemen. A, | 5hOugh the fire occurred at about , clock, hundreds of people gathered | o witness the flame. The fire was | confined to the tenth floor and the lamage done to rooms on the other 1oors was by water only.
