Your 'suspicions'' are confirmed the
minute that cool, comforting smoke
comes rolling over your tongue. Never
did pipe.tobacco taste as good as that.
Cool and sweet and mellow and mild
-1ong-burning P. A. just has
everything you ever wanted in smoke,
including complete satisfaction.
No matter how hard you hit it up,
PA. never bites your tongue or parches
your throat. You can start in right after
breakfast and stay with it until bedtime.
You may think your pipe is delivering
capacity pipe.joy now. Never mind.
Until you've tried P. A., you won't know.

You don't need degree from Oxford
to figure out why SO many men smoke
pipes today-and enjoy them. Pipe
smoking has increased at least three-fold
since Prince Albert came into the picture.
And pipe-p1easure has increased a thou
sand-told. And with good reason!
Prince Albert in the bowl Of your pipe
means pipe.joy coming up the stem.
That's the story Of PAS tremendous
popularity in pipe.bowl. You suspect
that Prince Albert is wonderful tobacco
the instant you open the tidy red tin and
set free that rich, rare fragrance. That's
a treat in itself!

Evening star., 1927-04-17

ETC. it is obvious that the car attained speed far
greater than mile minute.
Who drove The Commander?
Harry Hartz, champion American race driver,
started, finished and driving at the time each
record was established. He was relieved by Eddie
Hearne also one of Americas great speed kings,
Louis Wilson, another race driver, and Alb Jenkins
Salt Lake City contractor who smashed all previous
transcontnental records last June when he drove
q Studebaker Sheriff from New York to San Fran
cisco in SO hours, 20 minutes.
Under what auspices were these amazing rec
ords of The Commander made?
The American Automobile Association, which had
official observers on the spot throughout.
Was it strictly stock car?
Before and Immediately following the test, repre-
sentatives of the American Automobile Associa-
ton checked The Commander thoroughly and made
affidavit that it was strictly stock car in every
respect Studebaker factories are working to capac-
ity building this identical model.
Was the car stripped?
No it carried full equipment including spare tire.
Practically all the records which were smashed by
The Commander had been made by open racing
models stripped to the limit,
What condition was the car in at the end of
the I, 600 miles?
To demonstrate its condition, Hartz put it around
the track several times at the rate of 70 miles per
hour, Immediately after the FIVE thouSandth mile
had been run Its condition seemed to indicate that
it might have continued indefinitely.
What is 5000 n1iles9
It is substantially the distance from New York to

Mexico City; the distance from London to Bombay,
India the distance from California to Japan the dis
tance from the Panama Canal to Bordeaux, France.

Century from New York to Chicago?
Four engines, each one costing sol, 500, are needed
for the tasks Despite the fact that these engines
have fewer moving parts than Studebaker
and are driven on steel rails by expert engineers,
they are run less than 500 miles any trip, then
go in the rcundhouce for service.
How do Commander prices compare with
other cars of similar power2
No other car of equal or greater rated horsepower
sells for less than double the price of The Com
mander To match The Commander in power you
must pay from 81, 900 to $4,000.
Why are Commander prices SO Iow2
Volume production on One-Proft basis gives you
a truly great acknowledgements power and
luxurious comfort at a moderate price. That is why
the Studebaker Big Six outsells the combined
totals of all other cars in the world of equal or
greater rated horsepower.

ALWAYS WOUND UP

Our junior senator--to wit, Hiram Bingham-is facetiously described In a dispatch from Washington as hav- ing more to say than q radio tuned in on four stations"
 Hiram Is either going to win great fame or become a flop" runs an other dispatch. He has spoken in the Senate oftener than any other sena- tor; no subject brought up for dis cussion finds him devoid of some kind of argument pro and con. In vain do the other senators try to stop him from getting in Series of re- marks on anything from radio, the maternity act, states rights, air craft or foreign relations. The trouble in Nicaragua and Mexico found him in an exclusive element, as he has been able to discuss the controversy in the original Spanish.
 Before us we have resume of Hiram's activities during the last two weeks in the Senate. They indi- cate he is forever on the job, any how. In addition to talking on every thing in sight, he is forced to in dulge In frequent sallies with the older Senate masters of debate, some of whom give evidence of being irked by the Nutmegger's constant barrage of verbal fire.
 Hiram has his plans well perfect ed; nothing can swerve him. He is going to be a splash in that Senate and has the self-confidence to go right ahead. How far he gets re- mains to be seen: but there will be less doubt about how much is 10 be heard. The old understanding that a new senator should be seen oftener than heard doesn't apply to our Hiram; he has broken the rules and the other fellows are trying to get his nanny.

New Jersey is doing something worth while in starting the wheels of Jersey justice revolving toward the state police who stand accused of such rough and uncalled for tactics as to cause the death of woman during an attack upon a house at Jutland. The trouble with the Jersey police was they had guns and wanted 10 use them, so an old woman in the way had to be slain. And all they were out to investigate in the first place was a report that cattle were underfed. Investigating such re- port would not require the posses sion of vast armament by the in- vesttgators.
