Most political talk now centers
around the league, because of its APP
preaching state convention. The re-
fusal of Justice Bronson to be can
didate for reelection probably will
mean the endorsement of candidate
for the supreme court. Among those

Judge K. II. Grace and p. d. Gar
berg. Rep. Frank Vogel, writing The

"a candidate for no nomination to
state office neither would accept
any nomination." No doubt about
how he stands. He probably could
get nomination, too, for he stands
high among the leaguers.
Mrs. L. c. Bailey in accepting the
nomination by the Republican State
Central Committee as delegate to
the Republican National Convention
at Cleveland writes r. w. Frazier,
chairman of that committee, that
while she accepts the nomination,
from a progressive view point she
disapproves of the endorsement of
Coolidge and says:
81 sincerely hope the progre ssive
people of our state, who have been
struggling to advance the cause of
progress, will voice their selection,
at the polls, Of one who will place
this commonwealth back in the ranks
of progress where our forefatners
intended it should be. To this may
we work in unison, that we justify
our title of progressive republicans
Roy Frazier, chairman Of the Re-
publican safe Committee controlled
by the league, says he intends to call
the committee together in the near
future to fill any vacancies that may
exist on the slate of 10 delegates for
the Republican National Convention.
William Stern of Fargo, a Coolidge ad-
vocate, has withdrawn from the
slate. Mr.. Frazier, while being hearth
ly "panned" by many league editors,
doubtless feels good over the action
Of the Divide County league conven-
ton which gave him a real welcome
and endorsed him for Governor. Mr..
Frazier replied he was not candi-
date but appreciated the support

Don't Buy Blindly

Studebaker is today the leader in the
fne-car field.
1t has made this concern the largest
builder Of quality cars in the world.
You can find nothing in cars at 81 900 or
over to compare with Studebaker values.
Studebaker sales have almost trebled in
the past three years. The growing demand
is the sensation of Motordom.
For II years the name Studebaker has
stood for quality and class. But never so
much as today.
Then don't buy car at ST 900 or over
without learning what we offer.

TT is true that we spend lavishly
on Studebaker cars. But it's all
L to your advantage.
1t is by that spending that we give
you the greatest value in the fne-car
field. We offer prices no one matches
on any comparable cars.
That lavish spending led people
last year to pay $200,000,000 for
Studebaker cars. And that volume
brings our prices down to where they
are.

We spend $4,000, 900 yearly on our

Not erf,uvGgGnce
Do such things seem
extravagant? They are
not. All those extra dol
lars save more dollars for
our buyers.
They result in the cars
you see, in the prices and
values we offer. Nothing
else in the field can COM
pare.
Those values have re-
suited in a demand for
$50, 600 cars per year.
That volume cuts our
costs in two, as compared
with limited production.
The cause of over
prices - UNDERWRITERS -
, is not lavish expenditure.

1t is
Limited production,
Heavy overhead,
Out-of-date machinery,
Anticipated methods,
Non.economical planes,
Transient labor,
Discontinued workers.
We've eliminated those things.
We've done it at what seems to YOU
a heavy cost per car. But each Of
those extra dollars saves S., we BE-
lieve. Note what values and what
prices have resulted. Note the amaz-
ing derpand-the overwhelming de-

Matchless endurance is another
famous feature. One Studebaker Six,
still in active use, has run 475,O00
miles since 1918. We get that through
costly steels. On some we pay 1870

Beauty of finish is another su-
premacy. But that finish requires
many operations, including IS coats
of paint and varnish.

enormously expensive.
Our constant improvements are
due to ceaseless research. IFS ex-
perts devote their time to the study

That reliability is due to 10000
inspections of the material and work

REASON LOST WHEN
PANIC TAKES HOLD
Why Theater Audiences Are
Most Prone to 1t.

Panic has been defined as any sud
den and unreasonable fear cor terror
without any visible cause.
1t owes its name to the pagan god
Pan, who was supposed to frequent
forests and other wild places in ma
ture. When the traveller in ancient
times thought the god appeared to him
he was struck with sudden terror, and
this gave rise to the expression panic
fear"
Though panics not infreQuently arise
when there is no real or adequate
cause, they may also occur in the
presence Of real danger.
Fear is a fundamental instinct
urging US to avoid danger, usually by
flight, (and there can be little doubt
that it is primarily protective in ma
ture).
Ordinary fear is under our control
to a large extent and can be influenced
by our reasoning power. The most
courageous men are not so much those
who are without fear as those who are
able to control it.
No other emotion, however is 50
readily aroused by suggestion and imi-
tatiOn, and in this its panic form, fear
is both unreasOning and impulsive
Selling upon huge crowds ii suddenly
spreads through them like an infec
tion. resulting in a wild and blind
rush for safety.
1t is believed that reasoned fear
which gives rise to deeds of self-sac
ritice and herOism, has its origin in q
higher part of the brain than mere
panic, which is more primitive.
Earthquakes are probably nearly al
ways accompanied by panic, which il
little to be marveled at, considering
mans helplesSness in the face of ma
ture's vast upheavals.
At the beginning of the last cen
tury 1t was prOphesied that an earth
quake would take place and thousand.
OF Londoners spent the night in tent.
and carriages in Hyde park.
Theater audiences are especially
prone to give way to panic, owing t,
the fact that their emotions have al
ready been worked up by the perform
ance.
Throughout history panics hav,
been common in time of war, ant
have not infrequently given victory t,

They have accompanied all kinds O

PLAN NEW MOTOR BUS SERVICE
Passenger Bus and Truck Lines on
Peninsula May be Consolidated

Expansion of motor bus passenger
service and the installation of freight
service with the addition of several
fleets of motor trucks operated by one
management are the plans of the
Shore Transit Line evolved at a meet
ing of officials of the transportation
company in Salisbury, Nd. The COM
prehensive scheme Of motor transpor-
tation which is being contemplated,
as explained by officials of the COM
pany is: Inauguration of passenger
bus service from Laurel, Delaware, TO
Georgetown, affording direct connec-
tiOn between the railroads passing
through each of those towns; future
extension of the Delaware line from
Georgetown to Rehoboth Beach and
Lewes; freight service from Sharp
town, Md, to Philadelphia and points
en- route to Philadelphia, via EldOrado
fredericksburg and Denton; establish
ment of freight receiving terminals
in Philadelphia, Chester and Whining
ton; merging of privately owned
fleets of trucks now operated in this
section for operation between termi-
mails under the direction of the Shore
Transit Line.
The passenger bus line contem-
plated between Laurel and George
town will open a territory heretofore
not exploited by adequate transporta-
tion service, the company officials say,
and at the same time offer to the
traveller or commuter a quicker and
more direct route between the Della
ware Division of the Pennsylvania
Railroad and the Harrington Frank
lin City branch.
Fleets of motor trucks are already
being operated on routes from the
lower counties of the Eastern Shore
and the northern markets, such as
Wilmington, Chester and Philadelphia
1t is the announced plan of the Tran
sit Company to assume direction of
operations of these trucks, providing
return loads of commodities shipped
from the proposed terminal receiving
stations. Many of these trucks now
return empty after delivering farm
produce, poultry or grain from the
points of Origination.
Passenger buses are now being op-
Grated by the Shore Transit Company

with the Claiborne and Rock Hall
ferries, and from Dover, to Salisbury

SUSSEX COUNTY PRIMARIES
Roy PettyjOhn of Milford Loses Out

In one of the hottest primary con-
tests witnessed in Sussex county for
long time, William A. Allen of Sea-
ford, at the Democratic primaries de-
teated Captain John R. Eskrdge, also

ton from the second senatorial dis
trlct, by vote of almost two to one.
1t was complete reversal of all the
dope that had been broadcast prior to
the primary election and came as a
great surprise to the friends and sup
porters of Captain Esklidge, who had
been considered by his supporters as
almost unbeatable in the district. AL

been due largely to the untiring ef-
forts of his ieutenants, who have
been busy for months among the vo-
ters, getting them organized for Sat
