Run Marmon in Ditch at
20 Miles Per Hour,
No One Injured.

"a car built like q dreadnought, ("
is the way Jacob We'll Of Fort Laud-
erdale, Fla, described hid Marmon
seven-passenger sedan after . crash
In which his car left the road while
he was driving at a rate Of between
sixty and seventy miles m hour be-
tween Orlando, Fla, and Fort LAud-
erdale several weeks ago.
Mr.. We'll described his experience
in letter to the Marmon factory.
A copy of the letter IVES receiysd by
the Embleton Motor company, local
Marmon dealer.
Thinking he had passed he last
bad curve on the road, Mr.. Well was
driving at q high rate Of speed when
he suddenly saw another sharp curve
ahead of him. His wife was at his
side; his sister was on the rear seat.
In an instant. Mr.. We'll decided to
leave the road instead Of attempting
to negotiate tho turn.
Il had hardly told my wife what
I was going to do when started
off the road but instead Of Q field
on the other side of the fringe of
grass dropped four feet into a pit
that had been used for furnishing
material for the road" hs said.
This pit had about twenty-four
inches Of water in it. There was one
crash and ! thought the Atlantic
Ocean had come up TO meet me-"
"You have q car built like q dread
nought," he said. II surely want
to express my thanks to your en-
gineering department which has de-
signed a car with such strength and
to the workmen who put in their
work, and to your testing department
which saw you got honest material
TO work with. II there had been any
failure or lack of cooperation be-
tween your different departments in
the construction Of this car, the man
who writes this letter would have
gone TO a rather early gravel am

CLEVELAND RETAINS
MI. WILSON RECORD

Each year the Los Angeles Express
Of Los Angeles, CAL, sponsors in be-
half of the automotive industry m
opportunity for various motor car
companies to enter their product in
the annual Mt. Wilson hill climb
contest.
Mt. Wilson IL in California and IL
noted as one Of the hardest climbs in
the nation. The road up to the sum-
nit is replete with tortuous, hairpin
turns, making It impossible for a
car to maintain q fast rate of speed
over long periods. consequently to hold
this record is IN accomplishment
which many cars aspire annually.
Last year the Cleveland Six sue
cesSfully won this event by negotiat-
ing the numerous switchbacks of Mt.
Wilson, TO tho summit In the fast time
of "a minutes, IS seconds. The Los
Angeles Mt. Wilson trophy was pre-
scented to the car for this accomplish
ment.
Now another one Of these contests
was held on the 18th day of Novem-
Der in which an eight cylinder car
and two other six cylinder cars set
out to beat the Cleveland Six record.
According to official time records,
these cars failed to lower the Clcvc-
land Six record, so this well known
six cylinder car will hold the Los
Angeles Express Mt. Wilson climb
trophy, according TO the Southern
Motor Sales company.

TRAFFIC
DEMANDS EASY
D RIV|NG

Present day city traffic congestion
has developed an ever-increasing de-
mand for easier operation. simpler con-
troll, quicker getaway and gear-shift-
ing in motor cars. With every metro
politan street and boulevard literally
choked with automobiles, drivers are
quick to realize that the less complex
the control of the car, the greater the
element Of comfort and safety in driv-
ing.
Relieving the driver of exertion and
distraction; permitting him to watch
the road ahead and keep both hands
on the wheel while threading through
traffic where frequent gear shifts are
necessary, have always been out
standing virtues of the control system
Of Ford cars.
MEET DEMANDS.
In the improved cars, these features
have been subjected to a number of
refinements calculated to meet the de-
mands of present and future in driv-
ing.
Driving the Ford car soon becomes
automatic action on the part of the
operator. The gearshift is simple in
the extreme and because of the fact
that all gears are constantly in mesh,
it Is physically impossible to clash
the gears or fail to accomplish the
shift. Refinements in the design OF
the pedals-wider. with flanges to
prevent any possibility of slipping
contribute further to the simplicity
and certainty of operation, says the
Crawford Motor Company.
CLUTCH IMPROVED.
Frequent starting and stopping
means more wear on the clutch Of the
city-driyen car and the improved
Fords are prepared for the strain.
Ford clutch disks are not lined with
the conventional composition, but In
stead are operated in oil, the strain
Of starting the propeller shaft being
taken up BY the film of lubricant. AT
points where the was formally con-
tact between steel and cast iron, re.
designing has brought steel together
with steel, insuring unusually long life
to the clutch.
Danger of skidding upon applying
the brakes Is reduced to a minimum
because of the fact that braking ac-
ton is applied to the rear wheels
equally through the drive shaft.

THE WET AND DRY PROBLEM

In southern California, in what is known as the Owens Valley group of embatted farmers seized an aqueduct that carries water from the Serras to Los Angeles, distance of 250 miles, and turned 1t into the Owens River.
 The residents of the Owen Valley demanded a primitive rght-the right of natures water sup ply. Los Angeles politicians, they say, drained the water into the city without making settlement with the inhabitants of the valley who too claimed this water right. This is of many contests III the West to decide ownership of water.
 Twenty years ago this particular fight started when Los Angeles began to build the longest aque duct in the word costing $25 100000. The farmers looked upon this drainage of their water supply as setback to their prosperity and their claims were full of logic Thus the controversy continued un til the residents of the Owens Valley took the mat ter into their own hands. Los Angeles bankers fin ally agreed to effect a settlement
 The Owens Valley Herald, in commenting on the situation said that "it was the only weapon a weak community had against strong munlcl paty to bring their wrongs to the attention of he outside world''
 The entire incident impresses this fact: The weak too have nalienable rights.

IMPORTANT CABINET CHANGES

Several sudden changes have been made Ill Pres ident Coolidee's cabinet, the most surprising of which is the resignation of Secretary Hughes. 1t was reported during the latter part of the campaign and immediately after the election that MT. Hughes desired to retire Later semi-Official assurances were given that he had been persuaded to accept appointment.
 It is with regret that the American people note the departure of Secretary Hughes from the State department. His selection by the late President Harding revived confidence i'll the department, which had lacked the standing ordinarily expected of it on account of the frequent changes during the Wilson administrations and the personal difficulty the war president had in working ill harmony with his secretaries-or vice versa. Mir. Hughes out standing ability at once manifested i'll the effl- cient way in which he took hold of the affairs of of flee and at no time in recent years has the depart ment enjoyed greater confidence of the country III dealing with tangled foreign affairs than 1t has dur ing his regime
 Mr. Hughes, however, desires to retire to re- coupe his personal fortunes, which naturally have not kept pace with record that might have been made had he devoted the past twenty years to prl vate practice instead of to public affairs.
 Frank B. Kellogg appointed to succeed Secre tarv Hughes likewise is great lawyer. He former 1v was president of the American Bar association and was senator from Minnesota before he was ap pointed to the ambassadorship in Great Britain, post which he has filled with signal credit to himself and the country His legal training and his grow ing experience with foreign affairs, they affect the United States will equip him to take up the du ties of office in way that no jar to the pup lie in the transition.
 Another important change in the cabinet Is the retirement of Harlan F. Stone, as attorney general to take place on the supreme bench, ana the sue cession of Charles B. Warren, to the head of the de nartment of iustice MT. Warren long has been in public life having served as ambassador to Mexico and Japan. Undoubtedly he will fill the attorney generalship creditably.
 Without. doubt President Coolidge would have preferred that for the most part his present official family retain their places but where changes have been found necessary he has shown wisdom i'll filling the vacancies with men of the highest training and abilities.

THE DRUG EVIL

The United States must accept the responsibility of bringing the consumption of drugs under control A habit far more dangerous than any other is that of using opium, and America faces the dire circum stances of leading the world per person ratio of opium consumption. This is horrible conditlon 1t is easily most important problem that presents itself for solution.
 For every one grain of opium an Italian uses for instance the average American 3G grains. Other comparisons are: India, 27 France, 4 Eng land, g. and Germany ?
 Is it any wonder that up and down the streets of our cities walk men and women pale-faced glassy eyed, and with nervous step. They on the road to hell, to habt-craving hades frcm which can be saved only their pitiable wrecked bodies. Their soul spirits have long ago been driven into in sanity; their minds wander; their hands trcmble their judgments falter; they have not hope. arlbi tion, nor the will to do.

DO YOU WANT TAX PUBLICITY?

Do you want everybody to know your business how much you eam how much you spend and how much you do not spend
 That's just what the publicity clause in the present national income tax law makes possible. The government has right to collect more taxes from the rich man than from the poor; 1t has right to levy an income tax; it has right to demand a report from men and women who earn big sums of money and the government has right to investi- gate Bill Jones if there is doubt to his report be- ing correct.
 But wen 1t comes down to giving every Tom, Dick and Harry access to Bill Jones's private af- fairs then the government encroaches upon the rights of personal liberty. This publicity clause is not good judgment It lacks common It IS hardly constitutional, and it should be speedily re- pealed.
