AU I 0 LEADERS
STILL LEAD

The Pierce Arrow Motor Car Co.
The automobile industry is rapidly
becoming an industry of leaders.
This development is most favor :
able one from the standpoint of the
buyer.
A few years ago the buyer. re.
gardless of the price which he
wished to pay for an automobile,
was confronted with q fairly large
array of different makes. II WAS
difficult in most cases TO determine
which one represented the utmost
in value In that particular price
Classification The industry was
..ss-.t vet fully stabilized.
To-day, however, we find in eaen
price classification a group of Lead
ers. The group has narrowed down
TO a few in each instance, but the
buyer can make his choice with
out hrsitation,s He has confidence
that each of these leaders is a
leader by virtue of the excellence
OF his product and of his ability
to serve the buyer.
The so-called second-choice car IS
gradually being eliminated. 1t is the
day of first-choiceNc cars or none.
Old Lines Favored
In the main. these first-choice
cars are the product of manufac-
turers who have been building cars
since the early days of the industry
"a truly natural development.
When Pierce Arrow, for instance,
first began to build automobiles 25
years ago. the founders established
q certain policy whose Influence is
as strong today as it was then
They demanded perfection in de-
Sign, in materials and in workman
ship. The lengths to which Pierce
Arrow went to insure perfection
was q subject of comment through
out the industry. Many OF our
shop executives today remember
how in the early days, when they
were at the bench. or at a ma
chine. they would have to do job
over four or five times before 1t
would pass the exacting inspection
requfrements.
This habit of painstaking work.
rnanship became deep-rooted and
was communicated to every work
man who was added to the organ
,ization. It was slow process
but it developed a body of men
whose training was different from
that OF any other workmen. IN the
industry.
What could be more naLuFaI tnaI Z
that today the product OF these men
and the men they have trainede
should be accepted without question
by the public?
Similarly. other long established
manufacturers have a background
OF experience which has won public
confidence and entities them to
leadership in their respective fields:
Success Breeds Success
The success which has come to
these leaders enables. them in turn
TO devote expanded resources to the
development Of still better product
and even greater values. Compare
the motor car OF today with the
motor car of 1918. And yet this
modern car costs on the average
90 per cent less than in 1913, while
the average cost of other conmodl-
ties is ST per cent above tie 1913
basis.
Great as has been the progress
Of those in the forefront of the in
cilstry, they are looking forward
TO even greater achievements dur
ing the coming year.
TO this group it viii mean con-
tinued leadership leadership
which will be, to the buyer, an in
falIible guarantee of honest values
and honest dealing.

 "The general welfare of the sov- ereign States of the Union concerns the Federal Government. The gen. eral welfare of the individual people in those States concerns the State governments.

COAST GUARD BOATS
ASSISTED RUM BOATS
IN UNLOADING BOOZE


BOSTON, Nov. 3, - 1P--The Boston
American says tonight in copy
righted story that six Boston coast
guard boats, ferry liquor from rum
row at a union price" Of 81 case,
have led to a federal investigation that
has revealed coast guard boats as reg
ular liquor carriers with some of their
officers as part owners in rum row
vessels. t
The facts have been revealed by
confessed coast guard participant to
national coast guard Commander Will
/ liam j. wheeler in o series Of secret
| of secret examinations of coast guards
mon in the Hotel Essex here, the story
says. Commander Wheeler has re-
turnc dto Washington with his reports
and assistants have uncovered new
! trail to Providence, r.
| Details of the manner in which the
coast guardsmen landed their liquor
were printed by the paper in an inter-
view with a member Of one of the pa
troll boats involved in the investiga-
ton.
my boat and three others in our pa
| troll running out Of base five (South
Bosotn) would spend four days on rum
row" he said after we left port the
skipper would tell us the name of the
boat we were to unload or assist in
getting the booze off into speed boats.
"When we got out to rum row, the
George and Earle, one of the best
known rum runners that comes into
rum row, would greet our skipper. On
one occasion seven speed boats from
Plymouth came alongside the George
and Earle and we helped unload 1900
case of liquor off this ship to the
speed boats. On this particular load
our skipper got $1,000 Our crew num-
bered eight, counting the skipper. The
crew got $500 to split among seven,
while the skipper had grand for him
self.
Believe me, things were rosy. After
we got through work we could cele-
brate. Night after night our crews
have been so drunk that we did not
know whether we were in rum row or
some place else.
II have known occasions when
coast guard boat would accompany as
many as seven speed boats from rum
row into Plymouth harbor to see that
they were escorted safely in.
1--WE unloaded an average of 1900
cases a night, so you see all the boys
were fixed pretty good financially"
The coas. guardsman blamed the
"leak" on friction among the men who
didn't see why they should unload the
liquor for nothing for one OF the Off
GERS of the base when they could split
up from $33O to $500 among seven men
for a nights work"
The radio operator on the I'm Alone,
I another rum runner, was understood
to be the department of justice agent
who obtained the evidence against the
coast guardsmen the man said.

Fire Department Called Out
On False Alarm Wednesday

For the second time in 80 days the
Douglas fire department was called
out in answer to a false alarm when
an alarm was turned in Wednesday
afternoon from the box at the corner
OF Ninth street and d avenue.
The maximum penalty for turning
in q false fire alarm Ys a fine of
$20O, and local police officers state
that anyone committing the offense
will be prosecuted to the full extent
OF the law.
Fire Chief w. j. Nemecl1 states
that instances have come to light
wherein the person who mad turned
in an alarm was able TO cxtinguish
the blaze before arriva! of the fire
department, and was unwilling tc
appear at the alarm box and explain
the circumstances to the firemen. It
is pointed out that in such cases it
is much better TO apprise the fire
department. of the details rather than
to have the fire department. turn in a
report Of false. alarm, bringing about
a pol.ce investigation.
