women DECIDE
WHAT GAR IS
BOUGHT
AA"AHT
-

- The women of America are re-
eponsible for the beauty and com
fort of the American automobile
declares Amelia Earhart in the Cos
Inopolitan. This famous transat
sslantic flier drives her own car as
well as her own airplane.
ct is a brave man who buys
lone make of car when his wife
wants another" says Miss Earhar:
s.Surely women's influence is prl.
& MARTY responsible for the RAPID
development of the American auto.
mobile in beauty and in comfort.
THE president of well-known
company told me the other day
Z that the new models, at least as
: regarded outer attractiveness, were
designed to appeal to the feminine
eye. American women keep us on
our toes devising cars that are
not only more beautiful but more
comfortably equipped in every way,
this manufacturer told me.
Plane Like Auto
She makes an interesting com.
oarison between motoring and pilot.
ing. and shows that a plane will
skid and stall as well as an auto
mobile.
"The motors themselves are not
more complicated than the engines
of fine automobiles" says Miss
Earhart, but there simply aren' I
any service stations 10000 feet IL
the air. An oversight on a high
way involves only inconvenience;
one aloft with luck. may mean
limping along to the nearest land
ing field. which may not be very
near. or coming down on the pest
plot which is in reach.
'Piloting differs from driving a
car primarily in that there Is an
added necessity for lateral control
An automobile runs up and down
hill and turns left or right. A
plane climbs or dives and turns,
but in addition tips from one side
to another. Keeping the planes
wings level however, becomes as
automatic as driving straight in a
car.
when the pilot turns he must
bank or tip the wings at the same
time. Why? Because otherwise the
plane would skid exactly the same
way a car does il it whirls around
q corner. A skid means lack of
control either on the ground or in
the air.
No Great Danger
"a plane. like a car on a hill.
can stall. Recovery of control of
the automobile is a matter of JAM
ming on the brakes and getting the.
engine started again. With the
plane there is some difficulty but
no great danger if one happens TO
be high enough-the plane simply.
falls for an instant until it attains
enough forward speed to make the
control surface again effective.
THE matter of speed is interest
Ing. You know that average planes
travel from perhaps so TO 140 miles
an hour. In theory that seems
breath-taking. in fact 1t is quite the
contrary. Thirty miles an hour
in an automobile gives one a vastly
greater sensation of speed than
moving perhaps thrice that fast in
a large plane. On the highway
every pebble passed is a speed
ometer
Tn the air there are no trees, no
telegraph poles or miIe-stones to act
as speed Enthusiastically a coun-
tryside below opening out before
one in leisurely fashion. Even when
the planes velocity is greatly in
creased. there Is little change in
the situation. il the plane is flying
high. so far as sight and feeling
are concerned"

 Men of Mfr. Anderson's type are of immeasurable importance in any governmental body. It is to be hoped that, while he has passed on to his reward. his spirit will continue in the common council"

polNcARE STANDS FIRM

Caen. France, Oct 29 R-With discussions regarding . committee of experts to draw up . new repara. tions plan for Germany under way, Premier Poineare stands firm on his insistence that France shall obtain from Germany enough to pay her war debts as well as indemnity for war damage. Until this question is adjusted. the premier said in a speech before 700 mayors of Nor mandy municipalities, France had no right to abandon her guarantees blindly.
 Political circles interpreted the "guarantees' as referring to occupa- tion of the left bank of the Rhine. which France was not prepared to abandon until payment of the war debt to the United States and Great Britain and of indemnities was as- sured.

Of them is over the home Of the Earl Of

A store that extends credit Is offer

on a cash payment and 30.day bills
are merely a convenience TO the Gus
