ROMANCE:
IN CHRYSLER

An organization headed by man
almost totally unknown to the pub
lie five years ago, but fmbned with
an ideal of what a motor car should
be, has today grown to be one OF the
largest of it's kind in the world.
The organiza ton is Chrysler. The
man with the ideal is Walter P.
Chrysler, It's directing head.
This tremendous accomplishment
Is considered the more astounding
in automotive circles, 1t is pointed
out, because, back in late 1928, when
the first word of a Chrysler car was
making the rounds Of business lead
ers. 1t was the overwhelming con-
census that a new car would scarcely
have a ghost OF chance" of sue
ceeding, to quote the phrase sener-
ally used at that time.
Public Opinion
''It would now appear that those
who gave Chrysler but little chance
for success reached their conclusion
without proper consideration for the
tremendous power OF public opinion,
says whitney Leary, in commenting
on ChrysIer's imposing growth. 1T
is the public, not Chrysler, which has
lifted Chrysler's ideal into the out
standing position It now occupies.
Even the last year has witnessed
epoch-making changes in the public's
mind as to who are the worlds great
motor car builders.
at is doubtful whether more
graphic proof Of the Endorsement
of progressive principles and prac-
tees has ever been furnished than
the public's accepts nee Of Chrysler.
Romance Of Success
'tThe public's admiration for the
ChrysIer policy of giving free reign
to engineering genius: the progress.
sive principles embodied in its cars;
the reduction of their manufacture
to q. strict basis Of close measure
ment and standardized quality
these and other factors have con-
tributed to rise which comes close
to being unparalleled in tho annals
Of all business e1deavor.
"The romance OF achievement, of
scientific pioneering, OF engineering
and manufacturing genius-of get
ting ahead-seems to me to be just
as great as 1t ever was when an
organization, working to an ideal,
can rise in less than five years
from little more than four walls,
machinery and that ideal as to
what a motor car should be, to the
outstanding position it enjoys in
tlA public consciousness today"

IMITATION IMPORTANT

One of the most important items in
the care Of tires is the matter OF
proper initiation. Balloon tires espe.
-cially must carry the right amount
of air in them or they will break
down quickly. Their walls are thin
ner and the loss OF a few pounds OF
the slight initiation they do get will
cause the walls to buckle and break
under the weight of the car. If the
tires are underinflated. also, CON
slant flexing of the walls under the
heavy strain causes undue heat 10
be generated. This separates the
plies Of the fabric and opens it 10
quicker breakage. The obvious pre-
Ventive is to keep the tires properly
inflated, checking up on them every
week

FORD PAY Plan
SYSTEM


With the production OF the new
Ford car showing q. steady increase
each week, the most interesting
recent development at Detroit was
the announcement of the authorized
Ford finance plans with the estao-
lishment OF the principle of time
payments on all Ford products.
The new Universal Credit Com
pany has been created to act as the
specialized financial institution TO
provide a uniform and authorized
time.purchaSe plan throughout the
United States. The Universal Creuir
Company is Ford controlled ana
financed. Offices Of the company
have been established in the new
penobscot Building I'm Detroit ana
two branches, Detroit and hansss
City, are open for business. AS
rapidly as possible total or 30
branches will BIS established. branches
at New York, Boston, Chicago and
Atlanta are organized and VIII COM
mence doing business during Sep
TENDER. These will be followed by
the opening OF regionally located
offices in other principal cities from
coast to coast.
T0G UNIVERSAL NkCOlL SOAAH01AJ
plan Of time purchase permits the
owners OF Ford cars to buy them at
lowest p0ssible financing cost com
mensurate with sound business
practices.
Already the Establishment Of the
Universal Credit Company has
aroused national interest on the
mart OF Ford dealers and Ford pur-
chasers. The Ford dealer welcomes
the creation of the new company
because it offers him for the first
time u finance plan with the soiid
backing of the Ford Motor Com.
pany behind it. The Ford pur'
chaser is interested because the
plan gives him b distinct advantage
in low cost and contemplates the
purchase Of sound insurance protec-
ton.
In the latter respect the joint
interests OF the purchaser and OF
the Ford dealer are protected. The
plan includes the purchase by Uni-
versaI Credit Company Of sound
and adequate fire and theft insur-
ance covering the purchaser, the
dealer ana the company. The pur-
chaser receives q standard form OF
policy of Insurance. providing pro-
lection for one year These policies
are issued by the Home Insurance
Company, Of New York, one of the
largest in the world. The policies
provide. for settlement based on the
actual cash value of the car at
time Of loss.
Enumerated among other ad-
vAntages OF the Universal Credit
Company plan of time purchase is
the fact that the company is not
operated with the primary and s,'le
purpose Of profit, but is created 'or
the sound financing OF the Ford
dealer ana purchaser. The creation
OF the new company is expected TO
act as an added sales tool in the
hands Of the Ford dealer, who will
thereby, be able still further to carry
on the announced Ford policy Of
passing on to the consumer every
possible economy.

POLICY OF U. S.
STARTLES EAST
Relations Strained Over
Chinese Situation.

WASHINGTON, July 28.-Sec-
rotary of State Kellogg's surprise
move in negotiating a tariff treaty
with the Chinese nationalist regime
has startled the diplomatic world
according to dispatches received
here. Persons close to the Admins
tration conceded it to be possible
that this unexpected gesture would
react, perhaps unfavorably, upon
American relations with other
powers in the Far East.
1t was considered particularly sig
niflcant that the United States
should have chosen this moment to
advertise its friendship for the
nationalist government.
Observers pointed out the gesture
comes when relations between Toxic
and Marking are at the breaking
point over Manchuria and when
Japan, supported by Great Britain
is attempting to command obSerV-
ance by the nationalist of the So
called unequal" treaties, which the
United States has now moved to re-
place, S ofar as American interests
are concerned, with other agree
mentS
Authorities denied, however, that
Secretary of State Kellogg had any
thought in mind in undertaking the
negotiations other than to enhance
American friendship for China and
to encourage the nationalist in their
government building task.
They declared the negotiations
were actually started last March
before the Manchur1an situation
had developed and before Marking
had renowned the japanese treaty

ENGLISH KING
APPOINTS new
CHURCH Chief
Reform Prelate Is Named
Canterbury Archbishop;
Son of Minister.
BY ARCH ROGERS
United Press staff Correspondent

LONDON, July GA prelate who
gained renown through his reform
campaigns today had been approved
by King George as the archbishoH
of Canterbury-the ecclesiastical
head of the Church of England.
The Most Rev. Cosmo Lang, arch
bishop of York, was approved today
by King George to succeed the Rt.
Rev. Randall Thomas Davidson as
head of the church.
The former archbishop resigned
this week, asking that his reSigna-
ton become effective Nov. 12-his
golden wedding anniversary.
1t was considered likely that DR..
Guy Warman, bishop of Chelms-
ford, would be appointed archbishop
of York.
Wanted to Be Lawyer
The new archbishop of Canter-
bury-born Oct. 80, 1864-desired to
become a lawyer rather than a
churchman when he started his
education.
He was the son of minister and
was educated at Glasgow Univer-
sity and later at Balliol College, OK
ford. Then he entered Middle Tenn
pie bar as devil" under Sir w. S
Robson, later attorney general Of
England.
On the eve of his admittance Il
the bar, however, he. decided against
law as a career and in 1890 was an.
pointed curate of Leeds. Three year,
later he became vicar of st. Mary!
Church, Oxford, and later was ap.
pointed fellow and dean of divinity
Of Magdalen College, oxford.
His first bishopric came in 1901
when he was appointed bishop o.
Stepney and canon of st. .Paul's
Cathedral. 1t was about that time
he started his advocacy of reform.
Appointed by King Edward
DR.. Lang's eloquence was known
and as canon of st. Paul's his po-
sition in the church was high.
Nevertheless, he carried on the
campaign for reform from the pulpit

OREGON WING
WINS IN CUSTER
OF LABORITES
Mayors Are Dismissed in
Federal District by
Government.
BY G. F. FINE

MEXICO CITY, July 28.-The
anti-labor group of the Obregon
party today was elated over what
they considered an important vic
tory in their campaign to have all
Laborites excluded from the gov
eminent.
Luis Morones, who recently re-
signed from a cabinet post after the
assassination of President Elect
Aware Obregon, is head of the labor
group. He was Obregon's chief po-
litical foe. Soto Y. Cana, head of
the anti-Labor group, had demand
ed that Laborites be excluded from
the government and also blamed
that group for psychological inf1u-
ence in the assassination of Obre-
gon.
Friday the government was re-
ported to have decided to dismiss
all Laborite mayors and other Of
flee holders in the federal district.
They will be replaced by Oregon
istas.
Now the anti-Labor group has
requested that this action be car
ried out through the entire repub-
lie, thereby completely stripping the
Laborites of government power.
Should the government fail to do
this the anti-Labor group threatens
to create trouble. One meeting was
held this week by the anti-Labor
group-the third such meeting since
the assassination of Obregon-and
Y. Cana, Manrique and other
speakers emphasized there were two
points to their program:
1. Elimination of the Laborites.
2. Assurance that the new pro-
visional president would be thor
oughly in accordance with the OBJ
RECON principles.
