RED PATRONS
 AREANCELS TO
 RUSSIAN ARMY
Patronage System Grew Out of New Economic
 Policy SOLDIERS GIVEN FEASTS
Education, Provision of Material and Cultural
 Needs Required

MOSCOW, March 15.-The patron age system," practice which origi- mated in Russia a little more than a year ago as by-product of the new economic policy, has become so gen. eral that virtually every organization ill the country strong enough to stand on it's own legs and with little sub stance to spare has taken under it's wing some other organization less virile
 In thus sponsoring some other or ganization or group, the patron" as sumes weighty and expensive respon- abilities. At present the plan is ap- piled principally to the Army.
 "Patrons" Are Lavish
 Fifty bottles of wine were broken one night recently in the Continental Hotel for the fifth anniversary feast of the soldiers who protect the Krem. lin. The All-Russian Central Execu tive Committee is the patron of this army unit and provided the feast which is one of hundreds which take place all over Russia wherever units of the army or fleet are stationed. Prior to the inauguration of the New Economic Policy all the needs of the soldiers were met by the Gov ernment, but with the introduction ot regular payments for the soldiers and l in consequence of the general change in the internal economy of the country necessity arose for some more par ticular care for the soldiers.
 Not only the principal governmental institutions but the trusts and the factories became patrons of units o1 the army. Publicity and the pressure of public opinion readily induced any "tightwad" institution to play the game. Some army units accumulated several patrons and lived very we'll l indeed. Occasionally an enterprisine unit would adopt some prominent lead CT as a patron with resulting benefit to it's commissary.
 Officially Sponsored
 The obligations of the Red Patrons are set forth in a decree of the All Russian Central Executive Committee published by Kalinin. They must sat 1 isfy the material and cultural needs of their respective units, including improvement of quarters, heating lighting, mattresses, sheets, blankets bath, laundry, barber shop and other sanitary measures. They must sup up Red Army schools, clubs and Ii braries; they must assist the military co-operatives and aid in the liquida tion of illiteracy in the young army and fleet On the day of the celebra tion of the anniversary at the close oi work the central executive committees of the Soviets throughout Russia are to take part in the organized concerts and shows, bringing in the working men and women to associate them selves with the soldiers. They are to see that the invalided are brought

EUROPE CALLING FOR LIGHT SIX
0IdsmobiIe Official Says Small Car Meets Demand
 Of Middle Class

Tho coming European market for automobiles will call for a light six cylinder car of small bore selling a about 250 pounds, sterling, according to R. K. Jack. chief engineer of the Olds Motor works. Lansing, Mich, who has just returned from 8 two months tour of the continent as a member of a party of General Motors engineers. This type car. he said. will meet the demands of tho middle class which at present is despairing of ever owning an automobile having more than four cylinders.
 European countries tax Automo- biles according to horse power, con- puted on the basis of size of cylinder bore" said MT. Jack. For that req son a large bore and an 'over-en- gined car carries a tax which is prac- tically prohibitive to the greater number of potential automobile own CTS,
 Tn foreign countries the head of the average family has to provide for a greater number of children. by far. than Is the case in the United States. Add to this the fact that since the war business conditions have been generally bad. 1t can readily be seen that many in Europe never expect to own oar.
 At this time several manufactur- CTS are beginning to market a car for about 250 pounds sterling, and thfs Is meeting with favor from the middle classes. It will be, the big market of the future, especially in England. The makers there, however, can never hope to equal the number of cars produced by the American companies. due to the restricted market
 While the four-cylinder cars are the most popular today in foreign countries, the demand Is swinging to the six. and a car such as the Olds- mobile six, properly equipped for ex- port use. should meet with favor. due to its small cylinder bore and result ant low tax rate.
 '"rhe new Oldsmobi1e six is tho subject of considerable discussion in European automotive engineering cir cles because of the record recently made by a stock touring car in cross- Ing the American continent from New York to Los Angeles in high gear

 EXCEED 100, 900 MILES

over 195,O00 miles each and accord ing to George Poskitt, garage man ager. We believe these cars will run for another three years" Four White flve-ton trucks have rolled up mileage in excess of 100000 miles for the American Ice company of Phila- delphia- Three of the eight Whites in the service of the Stedman Fruit company, Beaumont Texas. have passed 1oo0 900 miles.
 George Scofield, president of the Savage-Scofield company, dealers in praises the dependab.lity of his H. year-old Whites. We began using White trucks way back in 1912" says MT. Scofield, when we purchased two five-tonners, and we can say right here that those first trucks are still working side by side with the later additions to our fleet. after Il more than 140,00o miles," The Fuller Dry Cleaning company of Cleveland, White users for 14 years, have one delivery truck that has rounded out 100000 miles and several more that have exceeded 100000 miles.
 whol. Fleet. 1oo,Soo 0 & q oMtler~
 A number of instances might be cited of whole fleets of 100. .000-m mile trucks at work in single instaila- tions, In the delivery fleet of the Bradford Baking company of Los An geles are 30 Whites that have done from 105,o00 to 339,000 miles. Twen- ty-five Whites-tha went into the service of Gimbel Bros. New York, In 1911 and 1912 all ran more than 100000 miles. Serving the Atlantic Ice and Coal corporation, Atlanta. Ga, 15 Whites installed in 1913 av- eraged more than 100000 miles each. Twenty-three Whites In the fleet of the Schulze Baking company of Chi oago, Cincinnati, Kansas City and Omaha are 100, ,000- -milers.
 One hundred thousand Is only a nominal mileage for busses. That mark has been passed by 2S Whites owned by the White Transit company serving the mining region in the vi- oinity of Wilkes Barre. Eighteen Whites in this fleet have exceeded 200,0 900 miles and six have gone we'll beyond the 800, ,000-mile mark. White busses operated by the Emerick Mo tor Bus Line company. Bellefonte, Pa.; the Madeira Fresno stages at Madeira, Cal, and numerous others have piled up mileages far in excess of 100000 miles.
 It would be possible to cite hun dreds of other Whites that have made unusual mileage records. The figures in each group are approxi- mately double those revealed in 6 similar poll made a year ago, and the list Is still growing.

Veterans In All Lines Of BuSi- ness Pile Up Big Mileage And Keep On RoIling--Life Of Motor Truck Still Moot ed Question-Miles Old, Not Years, Is Measure

The life of g motor truck Is still a much mooted question. There was time. and the practice Is still follow cd by numerous truck operators, truck five years to toll, depreciate and be written off the books. Theo- rettcally, under this system, the working days of the truck were over but where really good trucks were involved so many have kept on run ming following the fve-year period that the f1ve-year depreciation. prac- 2 tfce fails to give a true picture of truck longevity.
 As matter of fact miles-old rath- CT than years, ia a better measure of the aggregate of trucks service Tho prospective truck buyer should consider not only how long a good motor truck should last but what Is more important, how far good truck should run. Naturally due to diff ferences in the needs of business, It Is possible for one truck to travel six or eight or ten times as far as another in the same time-although both operate efficiently.
 Once 1t was considered extrsordi- nary for motor truck to do 100000 miles of work. This figure Is now considered only ordinary performance for & good truck. For instance, the White company in its annual tabula- ton of letters from owners testifylng that they operate White trucks which have exceeded 100000 miles, an nounces that 2,s62 Whites of all models are known to have travelled 100000 miles or more. In the list there are 1,451 Whites that have gone between 100000 and 150,000 miles each; 423 that have travelled between 150,ooo and 100000 miles; 844 are somewhere on the 100000 to 3o0,ooo miles lap, while IA Whites have forged ahead of the 00,ooo-mile mark.
 Many Businesses Represented
 White trucks as far back as 1917 had made 100000 miles standard measure for motor truck perform ance. In half hundred lines or business and in all sections of the country these veteran motor trucks have piled up their high mileag es. Warriors of the heavy duty type vle with nimble delivery trucks TOT places of distinction on the 1oo,Voo- mile honor roll.
 From Portland, Ore. E. Franz of inc United States Bakery writes' Some of our White trucks were pur- chased by us a great many years ago after having travelled in some cases as much as 100000 miles and some of these old trucks have been largely resnonsible for the enormous ln- creases in our business, as they enabled us to make our deliveries promptly and were always depend- able"
