DAD has always wanted an open U car. He likes freedom. He wants speed-and Aexibility. He loves to open 'er up on smooth country road and feel the wind whiz past his face.
 But Mother .. she wants comfort and protection-she's thinking of that rainy day when the youngsters have to go to school.
 And here at last is a new-type car to meet this old-time family problem.
 It's a glorious - joyous free, airy open car when you want it.
 Then when it storms it may be changed to a comfortable, weather tight enclosed car with complete pro- lection from wind and rain.
 Thirty seconds is all it takes-simply lower the roller side enclosures, with out even leaving your seat. You've never seen anything like it before.

FRAU sTINNES RICHEST
Bertha Krupp A "Piker" Compared With Widow Of Famous Financier

The one-person fetish that Hugo Shines followed in life has been sen timentally maintained in his death, for his widow. Frau Clara Hugo Stinnes, not only inherited the entire estate without reservation, but has been left in supreme control. She is the final arbiter of all questions. The seven children resigned their inheritance in her favor.
 This unassuming German woman she is the simple hausfrau that she looks-is on paper today the richest of her sex in the world, yielding an authority approached by no other wo- man. Prior to Shines death Bertha Krupp, 'the dollar princess" led the list of rich women, but she is almost piker alongside the widow of the great industrialist.
 When he knew that the end was near-and it was characteristic of the man that he fought off the inevitable until almost in his last gasp and even transacted business after he had heard that the operation on him was a fail ure-he called his family to his bed side in very much the same way that the first of the Rothschilds did in that historic House of the Red Shield" in the Frankfort ghetto so many years ago. Cautiously enough the Shines in- StructionS ill one respect followed the advice of the scion of the famous line of Jewish bankers because on the Rothschilds was laid the solemn in junction to stick together.
 To his assembled family Shines said in substance
 'Remember always that my life and work have been reared on three things the family, the factory and the state, and in the order l have named. What l have assembled is yours, but it is merely n foundations. It is for you to carry it on with the larger idea that the success of industry is the prosper ity of the state. Let no selfish con sideration deter you from the larger result.
 You cannot succeed if you are not united. Quarrels and dissentions are always destructive. Your inheritance can only endure if you are united. If any question arises let your mother be the sole judge and the final arbiter.
 Remember that luxury is always dangerous. The simple life is the eff fective life. Obtain no money unless you have urgent use of 1t. l Another deathbed revelation of pecu- liar interest at this time is that in practically the last business discussion that he had Stinnes urged the adoption ' of the Dawes plan.

sion of experts visited Germany the member delegated to carry on negotla- tions with Stinnes was Owen ID. Young For days they wrestled with the prob lem of the mortgage on German 1n- dustry, which Shines, at the start, strenuously opposed. Finally he ac- quiesced and his support became as ardent as his objection had been bitter. When he was told during his last hours that the report had been formulated he said: Good, Germany must adopt it. It is the hope of the future.'
 It is also worth pointing out that shortly before his death StiEnes ln- structed his eldest son to arrange for the endowment of an institution similar in scope And operation to the Rockefel- Ter Foundation. This kind of enter prise met his idea of constructive help for he had no patience with ordinary organized benevolence. Hence. he left no bequests for charity. After his death it was disclosed that ever since the end of the war he had supported 5000 German officers and their fami lies. The moment one of these benefi- ciaries disclosed the source of : is sus- tenance his name was, wiped off the list.
 A hitherto unwritten Shines story shows another avenue of his benefac- tions. When q visitor commented on the crudity of some of the paintings in the Shines house at Mulheim Mrs. Stines replied, My husband supports so many young German artists that they feel that they must give something in return."-Isaac F.

 THE ROAD TO DINKINSVILLE The new highway to Dinkinsville
 will have concrete paving, The cost of which will soon be paid in
 tires and upkeep saving. We swell with pride in showing it to
 some new tourist chap And pointing out how straight and far
 it goes-upon the map. The new highway to Dinkinsville is
 wide and gently curving, The kind of road that folks who pay
 the taxes are deserving. The distances between its towns will
 greatly be diminished; That is, they will be. when we get afore
 said highway finished. The new highway to Dinkinsville was
 started years ago; They graded nineteen miles. Since then
 the jobs been rather slow. It seems that all the funds were spent
 before they bought the gravel, And so, of course, the mudbank is
 trifle hard to travel. The new highway to Dinkinsville goes
 over Peaveys ridge And Grapevine creek-or will,s when
 they complete the new steel bridge. That cuts off seven miles, they say, and
 touring will be merry When that is done. But meantime we
 detour by Simpsons ferry. The new highway to Dinkinsville has
 eaten lots of taxes, But politicians here and there must
 grind their little axes. We hope we'll live until it's done; we
 boast of it with pride, But never do we take that route. It's
 too darn rough to ride.

NASH COMPANY
 MAKES RECORD
October Sets New High ' Mark For Car
 Sales

October set new high sales rec ord for the Nash Motors company Kenosha. Closing of books for the month revealed that the total volume of business transacted was substantially larger than the best month heretofore in the history of the company.
 In making public this statement. F.. H. McCarty, Nash general sales man ager. said. "The bare statement that October was the biggest month record ed by Nash since the formation ot the company is impressive, of course, but this unprecedented sales condition takes on added importance when you con trast it with the general condition prevailing throughout the industry. You must take into consideration the fact that the fall season normally is never the most active sales period. And further resistance is the prOverblal ma tional attitude of waiting rather than buying during presidential election year. Nevertheless. despite these ad- verse factors the demand for the new Nash Advanced Six and Special Six models has grown with such rapidlty since the day the cars were first placed on exhibition throughout the country that there has never been a time when we were not OverSOu. Added eNluehce as to this is found in reports from dealers, which shows that in 15 cities alone at the end of October, the bonafide unified retail orders for new Nash models, specifying immediate de- livery totaled 1,265 cars.
 "An analysis of the proportionate open and enclosed car sales during October throws an interesting side light on the situation. October enclosed car business was the biggest we ever had. And the October total plus the Septem- Der enclosed car sales ran we'll past the combined enclosed car sales of the three next largest months in the his tory of Nash.
 November shows so far not the slightest hint of slackening in the de- mand and this on top of October's record is pretty sound evidence that there are always plenty of buyers when the goods and prices are right. In honor of this record breaking month, Nash dealers everywhere are arrang ing special window displays and hold ing exhibitions of the models of both lines"

INSURANCE ON NEW BASOS Plan Would Compensate PelsOns In
 jured By Traffic Accidents

Referring to various plans for pro, viding insurance in traffic accidents. Public Affairs says: "A better method issproposed by writer in the American Bar Association Journal. It provides for the enactment of law similar to the workmen's compensation laws, pro viding compensation to all those in jured in traffic accidents. The money would probably be collected by com pulsory insurance plan, but the amount of the award to the injured person would not, in this case, depend on the amount of insurance carried by the in dividual car owner, but would be based on the nature and extent of the in juries. It would be, evidently, a much fairer method from the point of view of the injured person.
 "The introduction of such a law would undoubtedly be opposed by many selfish interests, and perhaps by in surance companies unless they were permitted to handle the business that would result from it. Some states would probably want to have the ilI- surance handled by established com panies, but others would prefer to do the insuring themselves. That. how ever, is a minor matter by comparison with justice for the persons incapaci- tated, often through no fault of their own. by traffic accidents :"

MILLIONS VOTED
 TRAFFIC PLANS
Los Angeles Provides For Pedestrian And Vehic-
 ular Relief ~

LOS ANGELES, Calif., Nov. 15.-A comprehensive, city-wide plan TOT .ne relief of yehicular and pedestrian traffic and it's future street development was adopted by Los Angeles by vote or three to one at the recent election. Two propositions were submitted to the voters; one on the adoption of maJor traffic street plan, prepared by three eminent experts from the east, and the other providing $5,O00,000 to. provide the city's portion for carrying out the first unit of the proposed traffic relief.
 This action indicates approval of the citizens generally of treet plan that will cast approximately SlOUooo'oou and include the widening of downtown traffic arteries. tine extension of heaviiy travelled streets into through thohough- fares, and providing for future street development along scientific lines.
 Los Angeles found itself facing unique situation. It not only has more automobiles per capita to provide for than any spot in the world, but It IS center for motor turists who annually add one-third to the normal motor tra1- fife. More than 100000 resident motor- ists use the streets, and during the year some 100000 motorists from other states come sight seeing. making the problem of handling traffic more dlffi- cult than in the average city.
 The relief plan adopted by the voters not only provided funds for immediate traffic relief, but formally adopts a plan designed to care for the constant ly increasing numbers of vehicles for years to come.
