ADOPTS SAFETY DEVICES
Yellow Cab Company Adds to Car
Protection.

PrOtect1On.
Pioneer use of safety devices char
acterizes the coming model of yell
low Cab, which has just been an
nounced. Foremost among these is
the installation of Triplex glass in
the partition between passengers
and driver, to protect against the
danger of flying glass in case of COL
lision. This glass appears to the eye
to be plateglass, having no REIN
forcing wires and no color.
Other safety innovations include
steel running boards, quarter Inch
frame, large brakes an dheavy run
ming boards. The cars are powered
with the 1928 Buick motor. ~

what constitutes stock car status,
has been the crux of opposition to

Standard Cars
"At a recent conference of fac

should answer in every particular
the specifications as published for
distribution to purchasers in sales
rooms, which carry the same equip
ment or optional equipment as
clearly stated in the advertisements

From this conference the Ameri-

Roger told the story Of how he had gone to Man

BY GEORGE R. HOLMEs

~NNS-NNA2 He ANOl1N1LlS
William Morgan Butler, chairman
OF the Republican national commit.

leaving behind him for President
Coolidge's contemplation a pleasant
picture of political conditions in
the West. -
On trip that carried him 70
the Pacific slopes, and through the
heart of the supposedly disgruntlet
grain belt, Chairman Butler found
little evidence of Republican dis.
satisfaction, and, on the contrary
discovered a quite general feeling
that Calvin Coolidge should be re.
nominated and reelected in 1928.
This, at any rate, is the gist of
the report which the chairman rem
dered to his chief at a series of
conferences that ended last night,

Z Mr.. Coolidge in making up his

term tradition and stand for re.

The American Turkey

% ERHAPS the most dis
l tinctive feature of our .
American Christmas dinner
is the turkey. This noble,
bird is q Christmas feast re-
quirement, whether the din
ner be prepared in Texas or
Wisconsin, New York or .
California. 1t is interesting
to recall the origin of our
national Christmas bird. The
story of Capt. John Smith,
fresh from his wars with
the Turks, surveying the
wild fowl In the forests Of .
Virginia and of his uproarious
laughter upon seeing the tur-
key gobbler strut proudly be- :
fore the hens is perhaps
fresher in the minds of our
school children than in our I,
own. At any rate, we agree
with his comparison of the
proud gobbler, for he sis ex-
actly like the proud Turk
showing off before his
harem." So the name turkey
is no longer familiar Just to
Americans, but has fast be-
come an international me-
dunn of celebrating the hap
py Christmas season.-Frank

DISEASES
BY 195O-FRANKEL
Doctor, Insurance Official,
Says Possible.
BIZ United Press

BOSTON, Feb. 1S.-Almost every
disease prevalent today will be con-
quered by medical science by 1850,
in the opinion of DIR. Lee K. Frankel,
vice-president of a large life insur-
ance company.
What a number of years ago were
regarded as communicable diseases
of the first order today are extinct
in the United States" he said. "By
investing millions of dollars annual
ly, we have been able to study the
causes of the diseases which not so
many years ago cut deep into the
rank of humanity in every State in
the Union.
I'm the past ten years there has
not been a single case Of cholera,
typhus or yellow fever reported in
this country. In the past year not
single death has occurred in this
country from smallpox, that
dreaded malady of fifty years ago.
"We know today with the knowl-
edge we have that there are certain
diseases that can be completely and
forever eliminated. In ten or twenty
years we expected not only to have
conquered every disease, including
cancer, but to have found preventa-
tives for most Of those ravaging
mankind today"
