CHRYSLER DOES

mechanical or shop way that one Isl
apt to overlook another very signi-
ficant and important fact: namely,
that his understanding Of men is,
just as thorough as his understanding
Of machines and mechanical processes
and that in all Of his undertakings
he is blessed with n background orr
foundation of employee confidence
and loyalty, such as has seldom, ri
ever been equalled i'm the annals of

local ChrysIer dealer.
when Chrysler gathered up the
reins of the Maxwell Motor cOrpor-
alton and made ready TO drive to
the top Of the automobile industry
in the short span of two years, he
was far-sighted enough to know from
his own experience as a mechanic
that it could never be done without
one hundred per cent cooperation
from the shop personnel.
consequently, at the same time he
was Bevamping the shop layout, in
stalling new machinery and develop
ing his designs for the first car TO
bear his name, now as the Chrysler
"70", he was diligently studying ways
and means of making Chrysler fac

the task of establishing any and
all policies deemed necessary to the
welfare, contentment and profitable
employment of ChrysIer workmen,
thereby safeguarding the slogan-"A

ABOLITION OF FEz AFFECTING PEOPLE

Washington, D. C., Dec. IT = When news reached the world that Turkey had abolished the fez 1t cre- ated mild interest.
 That is, the intere was mild in nearly all the world except in lit tie Czechoslovakian village in the Bohmer Wald where it stirred up amazement instead. Now the people of Strakonitz have protested against Turkeys abandonment of it's tra- ditional headgear because it cripples their industry of supplying fezzes to Turkey.
 The predictment of Strakonitz (the Czechs spell 1t Strakonice) affords a telling cross-section of Czechoslo- vakian industry.
 Forced Afield for Markets
 Long before Czechoslovakia be- came an independent state it had the habit of making things for other na- tions. When the buying power of Europe shrank after the war. Czech oslovakians were forced afar for markets as they never were before.

 Strakonitz, Gablonz, Kladno Pri- bran, Brunn and other manufactur- ing towns are the western end of the country. Czechoslovakia, at first seemed an awkwardly long name but 1t helps one remember the geogra- phy of the natie Czech is the short, compact name and likewise the west ern, or Czech, or Bohemian section, is as compact as box.

ing behind the Bohemian box.
 "The edges of the box are moun-
 tain ranges and Strakonitz lies near the south wall. Another way of giv- ing it's position is to say that Strall- onitz lies halfway between Ceske Budejoyice and Pilsen. A still better way is to say that 1t lies halfway be- tween Budweis and Pilsen, for the German spellings of those towns are far more familiar to an American than the Czech spellings.
 Volstead Act Grteved Pilsen
 The sorrow caused Strakonitz by the Turkish edict against the fez is drop in the bucket beside the grief Rilsen faced because of the United States declaration of prohibition. Pilsen's municipal brewery is the largest in Czechosl, .akia and one of the largest in the world. It's pro- duct goes to nearly every land. This brewery is a community pro- ject operated by few hundred house owners of the town.
 While the textile industries, in- cluding the hat making of the Stra- konitz district are extensive, even slight inqui into Czechoslovakian trade reveals that Bohemia is es- pecially dedicated to beverages. First there is Hama (Prossnitz) in Mora via between Bohemia and Slovakia, famous for it's barley malt which is shipped all over the world. Then there is Saaz (Zatec) in the far west Of Bohemia, famous for its hops which are shipped to Pilsen and to Germany. There also are the numer- ous breweries. And finally there is the extensive glass industry centered in Gablonz (Jablonec) for fancy ware and Teplitz (Teplice.) Prague (Praha). etc, for plainer ware.
 Pilsen. Strakonitz and Budweis are also within the chief health springs district of southern Bohemia, one of the most famous of Europe. In past ages the country was liberally sprinkled with small volcanic peaks 1 Volcanic activity has survived only | in the warm health springs, such as Karlovy Vary, better known as Karlsbad; and Mar Lazne. better known as Marienbad."

GENEVA, August 14.-Italy has
sent a communication to the League

or British governments intended to
exert pressure on Abyssinia to accept
their recent agreement concerning

wishes its protest against this accord
placed upon the aaenda of the Sep
tember session of the league council.
Referring to the creation of an eX-
elusive sphere of Italian influence in
western AbySsinia. Premier Mussolini
declares that this solely binds the
British and Italian governments and
cannot detract from the rights of
Abyssinia in making such decisions
as it may see fit either for or against
the accord. Creation of a special
sphere of influence, Italy says, is
merely designed to avoid competition,
which might imperil the development
of resources which it is to the interest
OF Abyssinia to promote.
