 With the war against Feng engag- ing all attention in the north. little concern was felt about the north ern advance of the Kuomintang. who anegedly with stiffening of active participation of Russian instructors and with Russian equipment, were making rapid strides toward the Yangtze river. which divides China into more or less equal parts. Prac- tically no resistance was encounter ed until they were at the gates of Hankow, the principal mid-Yangtze city, which they have since made their own.
 With conclusion of the campaign against Feng, General Wu Pei-Fu led his troops southward to oppose the southern invaders and fought them around Wuchang, a city lying just across the river from Hankow. His erstwhile allies, Chang Tso-Lin and Chang Tsung-Chang, appear to have given him little assistance, due it is generally believed, to mistrust and jealousy, and General Wu was forced to abandon both Wuchang and Hankow to the enemy and re- tire into Honan province to the northward.
 Reports appear 10 indicate that the Christian general, rehabilitated allegcdly by supplies and munitions from Siberia, is on the move south ward to join hands. with the Kuo- mintang. This, if accomplished, would present 10 the northern forces a long and formidable fighting front and would constitute a bona fide civil war between the north and south, in place of the factional and inter- provincial conflicts which have been recurrent during the last several years.

 As long ago as 1918. while himself refuging from his political enemies in the French controlled territory in Shanghai, DrT Sun boasted that he controlled an organization capable of carrying out his project. But years of petty warfare, not only be- tween northern generals but between factions in his own following, post poned the day.
 In the meantime Dr. Sun died: but his party has continued to foster the plan to dominate all of China, gain ing strength from year to year as the northern government centering in Peking. became weaker and more exhausted financially.

STILL HUNTING VESSEL
Prohibition Agent and Coast Guardsman on French Boat Not Yet Found.

New Orleans, Dec. 3.-lP-Twen- ty ships secured the seas in search of the bootleg buccaneers who have Kidnapped a federal prohibition agent and a coast guardsman.
 The fate of the missing men re- mained a mystery four days after they are believed to have been over powered and taken as prisoners to an unknown destination or marooned al some little visited point.
 Only conjecture can be advanced as to what happened when the French schooner Arsene J. escaped from the Cutter CG-302 with two of the rum chaser's crew left aboard to guard the schooner's cargo of liquor.
 The belief is that the Arsene Us crew fell on their guards and clap ped them into irons and again, as masters of their ship, headed out into the gulf under full sail for a nearby foreign port and the source of their contraband cargoes.

100000 Buick Cars
Marketed in 1925

In spite of the substantially lower
prices of current models as COM
pared with the 1924 list prices, the
Buick Motor Company increased its
volume of business during the past
year by $25, 00O,0 900.
This increase was brought about
by tie larger number of cars sold in
1926 over the year before. A gain in
sales of nearly 20 percent. was made.
The total value of the nearly 200.-
600 Buick ears marketed in 1925 was
in excess of $275,000,000. The great
est gain was made in the last half of
1925, in the face of greatly reduced
prices announced when the new
models were put into production.
The value Of the cars built from
July 1, 1925 to the end of the yea:
was more than $155,000.000. This
was a gain over the same period of
1924 of about $20,000,000.
Because of the strong market for
the current models, the Buick factory
has been running at capacity
J throughout the winter months. and
has announced production schedule
for the first three months of 1925 OF
nearly $4,000 cars. In order to meet
and maintain this schedule. ex-
penditures for additional buildings
and equipment amounting to $1,000
600 are being made. which will in
crease plant capacity to 1900 cars
per day.
The work of expansion is progress
ing rapidly. with every indication
that the greater schedule can be met
in few months.

Specialties Appear
On New FOrdS

Windshield wings, gypsy curtains,
and top boots are being added to the
items of special equipment manu-
featured by the Ford Motor Com
rany.
These specialties are not extras
but have been SO designed by Ford
engineers as to become actually part
of the car. Stamped with the trade
mark of the company in it's familiar
script, the equipment has the identity
of genuine Ford parts and is held to
the same standard of quality as the
car itself. Behind them lies extensive
experiment to determine the type
and construction best adapted to
Ford cars; experiment which was
unhampered by any compromise nee
essary to permit adaptation to some
other kind of car.
The Introduction of these special
ties conflicts in no way with the
company's policy of refraining from
debating to purchaser the amount
Of equipment he must buy with his
car. Those to whom economy Is the
principal consideration will in future
as in the past, be able to purchase
Ford cars in which the standard
equipment will include only those
features essential to satisfactory
operation. On the other hand. to
those who are interested in the COM
pletely appointed car will be avail
able specialties produced according
to the same standards of quality

(By the Associated PreSs)
Wheat took q late upward swing in
value today helped by signs that act
ual exports of North American wheat
are on big scale notwithstanding &ar-
sistent current advices of small bust
ness with Europe. Closing quotations
on wheat were firm at the same as yes

corn to &c down, oats to 3Hs off

In connection with talk which was
ports said to be in progress from
North America, assertions were made
that less than 10 per cent. of the Cana
dian crop is now left in the hands of
the farmers. 1t was also pointed out
that official figures on exports of

Total of 61.697.000 bushels for Decem-

reason for apparent misunderstanding

WHY'S Announces Big Increase
In Four Cylinder Production

Production of the Four Cylinder
Overland, the light car product or
WHY'S Overland, will be 5000 greater
for 1925 than during the past year,
which was the record year for this
model in the history Of the organiza
ton.
The first indication of greater de-
velopments in the four-cyliEder
Overland came in September OF last
year, when the price on the standard
sedan was dropped to $685., the low
est price ever put on four-cylinder
enclosed car with standard features
Of design and equipment including
three forward speed sliding gear
transmission, honeycomb radiator
heavy frame construction and stand
ard-size body specifications.
This price brought a volume OF
sales which exceeded by a large per-
centage the ability of the factory to
keep production up with demand.
The acceptance OF this sedan at the
price established was an immediate
indication of a sales field which had
facturer of q standard type four
cylinder car.
The total volume Of sales in this
four cylinder model for the entire
year of 1925 was over 100000 cars,
including all body types. Of which
there were four.
Manufacturing plans for 1925 con-
template minimum output of not
less than 100000 four-cylinder Over
lands. with every possibility that this
number will be exceeded before the
year is over.
The sales volume in this four
cylinder model was reached in the
face Of a total, volume of six
cylinder cars, Overland and WHY'S
Knight, sold and delivered during
1925 which exceeded 100000 units.
AT the present time, the price on
the Overland four cylinder standard
sedan Is still the lowest in the field

of materials and finish entering into
