The situation is very jumbled.
Englands Political tumble.
The big parties, Liberals and Conserva-
tives, both are split, even worse than
the Republicans and Democrats are split
here. Nobody can guess how they will
divide when they come to vote: nobody
knows just who is leader of either. The
Labor party is solid and pretty strong
but by no means in a majority. Lloyd
George talks Of forming a. central group.
but this talk is rather vague.
It seems likely that NO one party will
have a majority in the next Parliament,
so that the premier will have to form an
alliance with one of the others besides
his own. This cannot but mean COM
promise and uncertainty, a most unfor-
tunate thing at time when the worlds
affairs call for clean-cut policies on the
great powers part SO urgently that a
yacillating government is almost wrose
than a really bad one which knows it's
own mind.
Italy has changed cabinets, too, in al
most a revolutionary way.

This sounds considerably like revolution

my rate, has not yet, possibly because

WASHINGTON. Nov. 4.-Whcn long

of Capitol Heights. a Washington suburb
just across the Maryland line, were up
against it, The village streets were in
such poor condition that the women
couldn't keep their long skirts out CT the

SO instead Of having silk dresses and
bad roads they decided they would go in
for overalls and good roads--the overal!s

They're fixing the roads. Not by the
power of the ballot--but by welding pick
and shovel and driving tractors and road
scrapers.
Raising Some Dust!
The state wouldn't give any aid for the
muddy, rutted streets. But the state road
commission kindly consented to lend a
road scraper. And the village husbands
contributed overalls.
Then the women gave a series Of veg

That's the biggest Of all questions in
political circles these days. If that could
be answered, there would be little need of
waiting for the bulletins election dav TO
know the outcome of the days balloting.
Women, united politically, would hold
the balance of power. Their favor or dis
favor would seat or unseat senators and
congressman. But no united action by
women in the coming elections is discern
ible, as election day draws near. Instead,
even women leaders are urging women

Computing scales. c. K. Hughes
says. We have sold hundreds of
Fairbanks scales in the past two
years, ranging in size from postal
scales of one pound capacity to
twenty auto truck scale and
have had a demand for a computing
scale. The Standard scale. however,
is the first computing scale we have
seen which is sufficiently accurate
and durable to sell in connection
with the Fairbanks line, known by
three generations as the worlds most
accurate weighing mechanism
THE fact that the Standard scale
has the Fairbanks system of levers
proves conclusively that the design
of the scale is correct, and we have
satisfied ourselves that the materi-
ais and workmanship are of the best.
The Standard Scale Co. have ap-
pointed us state agents for the line.
and we intend to cover the state
thoroughly. Standard scales are
guaranteed to weigh correctly for ten
years and we now are in a position
to offer the trade a computing scale

mechanical assistant to President
Pearson of the New Haven lines, the
gasoline railcar embodies many de-
cided advantages when compared
with steam or electrified service on
branch line runs.
The problem OF operating two car

with an economy performance of

against the next best record of 1850.

The formula employed gave the

MANUF FACTURERS
UNITE AGAINST
MOTOR THIEVES

Stolen car bulletins issued regu-
larly with car number, motor number
and owners names, is one of the
means the manufacturer is taking
to cooperate with police bureaus
throughout the country and help
owners recover cars which have been
stolen.
The plan used by Dodge Brothers,
Detroit, is endorsed by New York and
Detroit officials. Judge Fish. OF the
Brooklyn Traffic Court. describes it
as an excellent plan and one which
should increase the number of con-
victions for motor car thefts. Dodge
Brothers maintain a department to
deal with motor car thefts reported
by owners and insurance companies.
Every two weeks the complete list
reported is sent to Dodge Brothers
dealers and service stations in all
parts of the country. Copies Of the
bulletin are also mailed to a national
list OF police bureaus.
A prominent police official states
that the cars which are stolen in
Detroit each year go not only to
neighboring cities and farm COM
munitjes. but to points far removed.
Cars which are recovered in Detroit
sometimes have been brought there
from the Pacific Coast as we'll as
from far distant eastern and south
ern cities.
A favorite scheme OF the shrewd
stolen car merchant is to pass him
self off as the representative of an
insurance company, in this way ac
counting plausibly for the low price
he is asking for the cars. The farm
er is considered a good stolen car
prospect. and il the stolen car broker
finds a fertile field for his wares in
one farm community. he may go
back again and again. disposing of
his cars in that vicinity. That is why
whole fleets Of stolen cars are some
times driven back to the cities by
detectives.

commended by Inspectors Jackson
