RAILROAD WAGES

Railroad employees received $2,669,-
19O,77} in wages during the year
1922, according to report issued by
the interstate commerce commission
This marks a reduction of % per cent
from 1920 when the wage bill of the
railroads totaled SO 698,216,352 From
The point of view Of the country as &
whole this will probably be looked
upon as a saving IN the cost OF rril-
road operation amounting to over a
billion dollars. But to the farmer
and other producers it should mean
also great reduction in the pur-
chasing power of 100000 consumers.
The total payroll still stands 10
per cent above 1914 when it amounted
to 81 ,337 7.344,135. This is not, how
ever a fair comparison, for nearly
one-tenth Of the 1922 payroll was
overtime compensation. \ large part
of this overtime could have been
avoided if the railroads had not per
sisted in THEN obstinate attempt to
break the shop craft organization.

SUGAR PROBE WILL MISS THE
HIGHER UPS

No one in Washington takes Sc
riously the suit filed by the depart
ment of justice with the ostensible
purpose of stopping manipulation of
the sugar market and punshing the
guilty ones, 1t is looked upon as an
other of the administrations political
Pestures.
Basil NJ. Manley, director, Peoples
Legislative service, whose expose of
the gambling which has sent sugar
prices sky high and netted millions
for the manipulators, forced the ad-
ministration to move, declares the
suit which is directed against officers
and directors of the New York coffee
and sugar exchange, will not reach
the higher-ups who are actually g
sponsible for the conspiracy to initiate
prices. These control the sugar mar
ket of the country and Manley sug-
gests the department of justice con-
duct proper investigation that will
cover them. They are the big sugar
producers and the American banks
that absolutely control the produc-
tion and sale of Cuban sugar" ac-
cording to Manley.
The administration has given signs
of hearing Manley's demand for an
investigation of Secretary of Com
merce Hoover's connection with the
rise in sugar. A misleading state
ment issued by the department of
commerce caused the first rise and
upset the market. Hoover claims the
Associated Press misinterpreted the
statement as announcing sugar
shortage. The first paragraph con-
veyed to all except mind reader the
impression it was sugar shortage
announcement. Appended were figures
which might have meant nothing or
something, SO most experienced of
the newspaper correspondents feared
the statement and passed it up.

is TOO OFTEN
NEGLECTED

There is only one way to insure
that the average automobile owner
will lubricate his car properly. That
is to make this task as brief and easy
as possible.
Americans are notoriously lax in
caring for mechanical servants, prob
ably because they dislike this job and
feel that it should be handled auto
matically. The man who loves ma
chinery does not need to be urged to
take care of it, but he is in the
minority.
Most owners keep an adequate sup
plv of oil in the motor and neglect
the chassis so that it becomes noisy.
The only proper and really economical
plan, and one that rolongs the life
of a car, is to frequently and sys-
tematically go over the entire acr,
not only oiling it thoroughly but pay
ing attention to its condition, especial
ly looking out for loose bolts and
nuts. This not only keeps the ma
chinery in good condition but may be
the means of preventing a serious if
not fatal accident. The old adage "a
stitch in time saves nine" most aptly
applies to the care of your automobile

FRIENDS OF SOVIET RUSSIA

Friends of Soviet Russia, national
organization with offices in New
York City, which has been endorsed
by labor unions and central bodies all
over the United States, whose aim is
to aid the toiling masses of Russia in
their struggle for existence and fur
nish them with modern agricultural
appliances and instruct them in their
proper use, publishes in todays Leader
an advertisement Whereby the means
of raising the money necessary to
purchase supply of tractors is set
forth in detail. AS an incentive for
aiding n this laudable enterprise a
plan is suggested whereby a hustling
worker may secure free trip to
Russia.

AUTOMOBILES FILL
AN ECONOMIC NEED
Motor Cars May Now Be Bought
for a Little More Than Twice
the Price of a Typewriter

While it is true that we all judge
values by comparison, our compari-
sons are usually, and quite naturally,
confined to articles of the same kind
or class. 1t is interesting and en-
tightening sometimes to go a little
further and compare the value we
get for our dollar in one article with
that of other articles of a different
nature.
Take the automobile, for instance.
We have seen the prices go lower and
lower as cars got better and better,
but we don't fully annreciate the Won
derful progress that has been made
in this miracle working industry until
we stop to compare automobile values
with values in other lines Then the
realization comes to US that we can
now buy an automobile, with its hun
dreds of parts and the thousands of
operations involved in its manufac-
ture, for little more than twice the
cost of a typewriter, or about as much
as one Of the larger sizes Of phono-
graphs.
There is no question that at present
prices, the motor car offers more dol
lar for dollar value than practically
any other thing or commodity in the
markets.
1t is the only transportation me-
dunn that will deliver a passenger at
his ultimate destination Not every
body can live on a street car line,
and railroad trains stop only at sta
tions. The car alone takes a man
right to the door
Living costs have been much re-
duced by the automobile. 1t is likely
that many of the millions of car
owners in this country find that they
actually save money by having the
auto. Suburban residence sections
are multiplying in every city A man
with an auto can live 10 miles from
his place of employment and suffer
no inconvenience. And he can live
there for less than he can in more
congested sections.
Therein lies the real reason for the
constantly increasing demand for
automobiles-they fill an economic
need. No other explanation could ac-
count for the ten million and more
motor vehicles registered in the
United States today.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1923-05-04
DINNER PAIL EPICS
Bv Bill Llovd

That day in Europe is sure lost
when there amt held at some big
cost conference to adjust the earth
and give the peace dove a new birth.
The premiers or their delegates
meet to arrange the nations fates,
Of smiles and bows they is no lack;
each with a knife behind his back.
They's out for profit and for loot,
each one a-threatening he will shoot.
Each one is looking for some soil
which is plugged full with lots of oil.
Wherever oil is found to flow, some
nation thinks that it must go to help
some folks, who is oppressed or help
some national who's distressed, to
save the Christian from the Turk, or
do some other righteous work. Where
oil amt found things seem to be as
good and peaceful as can be.
Where there is trouble, you can tell
it amt far from big oil well. And
when the fighting all has ceased, you
know that things has been well
creased by Anglo-Persian or John d.,
and that oppressed folks now is free.
It's then reflected in the news that
they has broke the widows cruise and
poured oil on the statesmen's feet,
beneath the guns of some big fleet.
They meet first here and then out
there, wherever hotels serve good
fare, until the man of Europe looks
like one of Tom Cooks travel books.
Each conference seems to be the
worst, but they is seeing Europe first.
While the results we cannot see, they
study their geography to find new
towns in which to meet, to juggle
boundary lines and eat, to wine and
dine and talk and smile, and cheat
each other by the mile, all looking
forward to the day when bankrupt
Germany will pay and Uncle Samuel
with a grin will say, "You folks need
not cash in"
I'm 'fraid before they play their
aces, the statesmen will run out Of
places in all the European lands in
which to MAY their one week stands.
But if the papers has not lied, Rus
sia's a land that they amt tried.
They's 'fraid some Bolshevik will
knock the tall silk hat from off their
block, and pound little honest sense
into some minds that now is dense.

SPARKS

Auto with one headlight burning
is a danger to other motorists.
Canada has 100000 automobiles
and trucks, or more than twice the
number registered in France.
More than 30O,00O,OO0 board feet
Of lumber were used in auto manu-
facture last year.
Los Angeles County, California,
has almost as many automobiles as
the whole of France.
Counting everything from cotter
keys to motor blocks, the average
automobile has approximately 1000
separate parts.
Closed cars amounted to 80 per cent
of last years output and are expected
to mount to so per cent this year.
Never use the same can or bucket
to carry water and gasoline. A par
ticle Of water or dirt in the gasoline
may cause lot of trouble.
Do not permit the driving wheels
Of a car to slide either in starting or
stopping. This can be avoided by
gradual engagement Of the clutch
and brake.
When the piston is on the intake
stroke, air drawn in through the
bushing controlled by the ball valve
in the spark plug cleans the points
of carbon and cools them. This form
of spark plug is now being sold.
An easy way to stop the rattle of
the hood, is to secure a piece of live
rubber between the spring catch and
the hood, so as to hold the metal
tight. A form Of hood silencer is
being marketed, although it can easi-
ly be fixed up by the motorist.

crowded lodge room and began to
talk of random matters. Mr.. Webb
polite as always, studiously paid at

the topic around to Mr.. Webb's quar-

ELECTRIC JUICE
ON IN POT0SI
BY END OF WEEK
Final Tests Completed.
An Innovation

Electricity will be turned on in Po-
tosi some time this week, the lines
having been completed and final tests
made last Saturday. The village sup
ply is $500 volts out Of the Lancaster
station dropping to $500 at Potosi
village and 10 light and 220 powe"
for individual supply. Potosi owns
and operates the plant, the Interstate
company supplying current from lis
high tension lines.
It is interesting to note that farmers
within + -asonable area along the line
may now secure electric current TO"
farm purposes. This will be a boon
to many farmers.
Potosi village is one of the oldest
settlements in Grant county. 1t start
ed as a mining settlement in the early
'20s of the last century. Today, 3
century later, it is receiving regular
electric service, night and day, and
fully up to the march of progress.
How the old settlers would open their
eyes!
1t is now perfectly feasible for Po-
tosi to have a good water supply for
domestic and fire purposes. something
they have needed for years.
