Prices far below the usual. Our
Light-Six, built by ordinary methods,
would sell for from $500 to $500
more. Our Big-Six can be compared
only with the highest-priced cars in
the world.
Here are 13 models, from 81, ,025 to
$2,685. Each of them offers scores
OF advantages over any comparable
car. They offer such values that the
trend toward Studebakers has be-

All Studebaker models are
equipped with Timken bearings.
There are few cars in America, re-

on this point. In our Light-Six, for
instance, we put more Timken bear
ings than are used in any competitive
car, within S1,5OO of its price.
We give unusual equipment. On
some Big-Six models, for instance,
we include two nickel-plated bump

 "1t is, indeed. time to call 4 halt. Our federal government is becoming more and more centralized: our states are becoming less and less autono- nous.

 Change the system of four year terms" said Senator Underwood. Make the term six or seven years and make the executive ineligible for reelection and you will have removed all temptation to further personal ambition; you will have taken out of the sphere of partisanship the one man in the country who would stand above and beyond it.. and you will have purified the very air of politics itself, by giving it worthcr motives and loftier ideals
 ASsails Bureaucracy
 In speaking of bureaucracy, Senator Underwood said much time has been lost but it is still not too late to "strangle this detestable thing which attacks and eats into the very yitals Of government"

spokesman" said. the idea is
that alien property in this coun-

nationals, or held intact to re-
turn to German nationals at a fu-

statement that the Cabinet had
discussed routine business in the
morning. The majority of ques-
tions are submitted by Washing

quiries. 1t will be noted that no
mention is made of current in

ment departments, but inquiries
of this sort are submitted for Of

velopments are of sufficient inn

The question of providing reve-

ures as now pending, is absorb
ing the attention Of the Treasury
and Post Office Departments.
The Postmaster General has sub
mitted several suggestions to the
Joint committee on Postal Sala-
ries as TO additional sources of
revenue. The administration
claims that the proposals to in
crease the rates on all classes of
newspapers and magazines and
on parcel post are merely sug-
gestions made in response to
demands of the Congressional
committee and are not TO
be construed as recontfnenda-
tions. According to estimates of
the Post Office Department, it
will be necessary To raise $780,
100000 a year from these addi-
tional taxes TO meet the require
ments Of the Kelly-Edge bill for
a blanket increase averaging
$400 a year to $4,000 postal en-
