.PURCHASEPRICE
ISTHE QUESTION.
Much Interest in Price Re.

Machines
.Whnt IS the n,irchasa nrIca2

What is the purchase price?
This slight but important altera.
ton seems TO have been made In
the famous slogan spread broadcast
by Dodge Brothers few months
ago. The change was brought about
by the most persistent epidemic OF
public curiosity since the time when
Dodge. Brothers first announced
that they were about to market a
car and then refused to tell what
kind Of a car It was going to be.
That was eight years ago,
Dodge Brothers la,cst bid for a
complete and exclusive monopoly
on public attention, so far as It per.
tains to the automotive industry.
came on January 10, when they an.
nounced that they were about to
make substantial reduction In the
price Of their cars and then declined
to tell what the prices would be.
The mere fact that they will not
tell until February l makes every.
one want to know Immediately.
L. Snyder, the Dodge Brothers
dealer here, was commenting on
the subject today, somewhat OH
the order Of tho foregoing para,
graphs, when a voice on the tele-
phone inquired, "if there wasn't a
chance to get a little advance in.
formation on those prices" There
were good reasons, tho voice said,
why the "tip" should be given out
In that particular case, land It
would be sure to turn out to your
advantage" But the dealer ex.
pressed his regrets and the voice
reluctantly withdrew.
"That is the way It has been go
ing ever since January H." the
dealer said. Z mover appreciated
what an intense interest there was
in Dodge Brothers Motor cars until
this occurred. That fellow who
Just called probably wanted the in.
formation for some business rea.
son ,or maybe for sheer curiosity.
Perhaps he had a bet up with some
!one. Anyhow, he refused to give
his name. The great majority OF
those who call, however, leave their
names and telephone numbers and
on February We arc going to have
o special staff busy calling all these
people and giving them the real
news"

MAKES MEN MURDERoUS
Mexican Weed That Inspires Many
Killings.

Killings.
Credited already with two fiendish,
weird murders and innumerable minor
crimes Of perversion, at San Antonio,
Texas, marihuana, a wild weed grow
ing in this territory, and smoked wide
ly by Mexican poems, has been nick
named the "gallows plant" writes a
correspondent.
The two marihuana smokers under
death sentence are Clemente Apolinar
and Frank Cadena, u both Mexicans,
convicted of two of the most horrible
murders ever committed in Texas.
Apolinar, 30, killed Theodore Bern
hard, II several months ago while the
lad and his younger brother were SAIL
ing toy boats at spring. The MeXi-
can without warning killed the youth
with n rock Kirby Bernhard, II, cs-
capped while his brother was being
murdered.
Cadena, 80, ex-soldier, shot Pablita
Jimirez, beautiful 1S-year-old senorita,
while she lay asleep in her bed the
afternoon of April II. For half an
hour after he had fired three shots
into the girls body, Cadena stood at
the foot of the bed with the smoking
revolver in his hand, muttering he had
done nothing. Tablita's sister para
lyzed with horror, witnessed the
strange death vigil When arrested
his only explanation in his sworn
statement was, II killed her because
loved her."
In Cadena's trial, the defense was
temporary insanity caused by smok-
ing marihuana. Considerable tcsti-
mony was offered. including that OF
physicians, to establish that the main
effect of smoking the wild weed was
to arouse the homicidal instinct. In
the Apolinar trial, the defense replied
on the insanity plea also, which was
refuted by the prosecution. InvcGtiga- =
ting officers were unable to discover
