Despite the depression which gripped
the world with increasing force and re-
lentlessnesS during the past II months,
these motor vehicles have been operat-
ing over highways in every cline, per-
forming their appointed tasks of trans
porting people and goods. In them
selves. they form what may be con-
Sidered as a theoretical backlog OF
untitled orders" on which our indus
try should be able to realize once the
adverse factors now restricting national
and international commerce are over
come or eliminated.
One year ago, it was estimated that
abroad for 100000 motor vehicles Of
American make.
During 1882, it is estimated that
$4,000 motor vehicles OF American
make will have been sold outside of
the United States, of which 1875 900
will have been passenger cars and 3d.
900 commercial vehicles. Passenger
cars sold abroad will thus have &C
counted for 1913 per cent of the total
American and Canadian production,
compared with 98 per cent in 1881;
commercial vehicles, % per cent against
28.8 per cent.
Requirements which we're due in
1882 therefore exceeded actual sales
by $1,000 units. Taking the average
life of a motor vehicle as seven years
and adding to this balance of unre-
placed old vehicles the 598,171 vehicles
of American make sold abroad during
1926 one finds that 1,1l5.17l vehicles
of American make will be due for
replacement aboard during 1888.
Trade Barriers Harmful.

be avery satisfactory picture for the
motor industry to look forward to at
the beginning Of the year. This year
is not normal. however, as every one

One OF the newest of the 1888 models
uses TWO cylinder-head gaskets, but not

owners desired to decrease compression.
A copper gasket is used between the

LIFE IS SWEET

Even though life is to be lost to the
extent of its usefulness and privileges
behind prison bars for its entire span
it is preferred to death by most GRIM
inals. Lawrence Barton, alias Barker
and Devol. plead guilty to participa-
ton in the Third National Bank hold
up in Minneapolis recently and to the
murder of one of the policemen. He
was sentenced to life Imprisonment
in the state penitentiary at Saltwater.
1t is reported that Barton was
wanted in Kirksville, Mo-, for the
murder of policeman and that the
Missouri officers had said they wanted
him so that they could hang him for
the crime. This possibly caused the
arch criminal to prefer to plead
guilty to his latest offense in this
stat so that he could hold on to the
life he had used so worthlessly.
Life is sweet to the owner even
though freedom is to be denied for
ever.

ACTION NEEDED

The Mile Laos County Times quotes
Thomas j. Watson president of inter-
national Business Machines Corpora
ton, from an address at Dayton. Ohio,
as follows:
Every man and woman employed
in the United States must work four
solid months of the year to support
the staggering burden of federal, state
and local taxation.
"'In 1913 the per capita cost of gov
eminent in this country was a few
cents over $50. In less than 90 years
government costs have been multi
piled 31a times
With our national income reduced
from $4,000 100000 in 1929 to $751;

OUR FARM PROBLEM MUST
BE SOLVED

Editor Askov American:
AS we all know the farmers plight
at present is critical one, and yet
no view of any betterment in sight
should make everyone of us stop to
ponder over the matters and be will
ling to try to cooperate with each
other for the purpose of getting some
relief
Being well known fact that farm
incomes have dropped off to where
they will not pay interest on mort
cages and taxes, leaves the farmers
without any buying power which in
turn has thrown out of employment
millions of factory workers which
also lost their buying power with the
result that so many people less are
able to buy our farm products.
The farmers are compelled as things
are at present to sell their products
way below cost of production and by
SO doing have no money with which
to buy machinery, repairs, paints.

Of paying of pensions to the Spanish
American War veterans. This to save
the government going into the red,
but there is a little inconsistency in
his principles. He, himself, was re-
tired when very young officer in the
navy and for many years has been
drawing a large retirement pay on
the strength of some small injury to
his foot. He can travel all over the
world under most adverse conditions,
but could not perform the easy duties
of an officer in the navy. If anyone
has been riding the government pen
sion he sure has, and out of pure
modesty should be very quiet. 1t must
be very CALLING for some veterans
drawing $1,000 a month to see a man
like him say who the government
should pay pensions to. General
Pershing, General Harboard and Ad-
miral Sims all draw large retirement
year. These officers of course
served for many years in the service
and should be taken care of, but it
seems to me they should at least be
neutral and not undermine the men
who fought under them. The idea
that the veterans are grafters is alb
surd. There may be some abuses. but
they are the fault of the government.
If President Harding had not put
crook in as the first administrator of
the Veteran Bureau most of these
abuses would never have occurred.
Graft and corruption has at various
times showed up in the Veterans Blu
reau, but this was not the fault Of
the veterans, it is the fault of those
appointed by the president to manage
the bureau.

COWARDLY MURDER

Another person i'm Minneapolis was
the victim of a hit and run driver.
This time it was a little six year old
girl who was on her way from mis-
sion Monday night. After striking the
little child, the driver of the car
slowed down enough to see his vic
tim lying near the curb where she
was hurled by the impact with his
car, and then sped away before any
one could obtain his license number.
The little victim of the latest hit-run
fiend was not killed but was seriously
injured with a possible skull fracture
and other injuries including a frac-
tured leg, but the deed is practically
of the same magnitude as if she had
been killed. For the driver of the
car did not know that his victim was
yet alive, nor from his action did he
care. All that seemed to matter to
him was to get away to save his cow
ardly neck.
1t would appear to be the height of
folly to run away from an accident
after ones car has been implicated
Ii one is innocent, it certainly would
| do no harm to stop and attempt to
| assist in caring for the victim or in
clearing up the cause of the accident,
On the other hand if one is guilty
of reckless driving it would seem that
the blame could be made lighter on
him if he would also stop and assist
1t is not only cowardly to run away
after knowing some one has been run
down, but the action also points to
the deed being nothing short of MUIR
der, and cowardly murder at that.

Sayings Of Yankee Statesman.
Some of the epigramitic statements
made by former President Calvin
Coolidge were as follows:
Men do not make laws. They do
but discover them. Laws must be
justified by something more than the
will of the majority. They must rest
on the eternal foundation of righteous
ness.
The state is most fortunate in its
form of government which has the
aptest instruments for the discovery
of laws.
The latest, most modern and most
nearly perfect system of government
that craftsmanship has devised is rep
resentative government. No nation
has discarded it and retained liberty.
The resources of our country are
sufficient if we use them to help each
other.
Promises and good intentions are
not enough. We cannot afford rash
experiments.
No great question has ever been de-
cided by the people of this nation on
the sole basis of dollars and cents.
When the times have called for a
man someone has stood forth.
There is only one form of politica
strategy in which | have any conf

FRIEND TALKS
WITH EDISON

PARIS, Jan. 18.-Belief that
he talked with the late Thomas
A. Edison through a medium a
year ago has been expressed here
by Dr. Miller Reese Hutchinson,
for 10 years the great inventors
chief engineer.
>Dr. Hutchinson said the seance
took place in the penthouse
apartment of Peter Duryee, a
friend. with all doors locked,
lights out, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Duryee and a medium, a Miss
Taft, in attendance. DR.. Hutchin-
son said he heard the voice of
Edison remark:
'WelI, Hutch, I've had to re-
wise my ideas about life after
death. I'm on the other side
of the river, but / don't know
where I'm going from here"
He said that Edison was asked
why a medium was necessary for
communication with a person
after death and the voice ex-
planned that in spiritualism the
medium occupied the same posi-
ton as the fluorescent screen in
the X-ray, which could not re-
veal bone structure without the
screen.

WOLF ISLAND. Mo-, Jan. 10
UN.S0.-Our two pals of the
jungle, Pat and Jake, pinched
themselves this morning after a
wild night on the island and no
doubt were surprised to find that
they were still able to take nour-
ishment instead Of being a couple
Of corpus delecti.

men, including Denver Bring
En- Back Dead" Wright, bend
to the business Of knocking the
icicleS off their respective chins.
There Is no question that Pat
and Jake, as the lions have been
nicknamed, are on the spot. But
not until Bring En- Back Dead"
Wright gives the signal will the
brutes be allowed to run for q
few touchdowns through the wild
wood.
Not Due Home For Week
Huntsman Wright, states that
he Is going to take his own sweet
time about turning the lions
loose. He declares that a one-day
lion hunt is hardly any lion hunt
at all, and furthermore, he told
his wife he would not be home
for q week. You see, our hero is
q most methodical lion hunter,
who believes that there is no use
in tossing caution to the winds
when lions are to be gaoled.
The hunt may start tomorrow
or 1t may not get away until
Washington's birthday. But when
HuntSman Wright gives the signal
to the boys to shoulder the mus
ketS, the sun will be shining.
That was what he said today
there must be sunshine.
I sense a bit of Skullduggery
here. No doubt HuntSman Wright
read how Hack Wilson lost q
world series for the Cubs when the
sun got in his eyes, so he wants
to see if the lions will be en-
barraSSed in the same manner.

Medical Examiner Will Make Effort to Protect

A. detailed report is being pro. pared by Medical Examiner pr Edward IT. Klrschbaum in connec' ton with the death Tuesday of M. Arthur Montambault, SC, of bDG Woodtick road. The history of the case will be written into n record for Coroner John T.

 An investigation has disclosed the fact that Mir Montambault had been treated for q canccrous growth by Canadian doctor" The latter came to Waterbury following Mr Morta mbauits visit to his suppoS. cd sanitarium or institute in Shcr- brooke, Canada.
 The purpose of tho publicity will be to discourage local persons from being swindled of the money and robbed of chances Of being cured There is q possibility of filing q ininai charge against Marcoux, but as the Canadian authorities are re- ported indifferent to conducting any thorough investigation the probe may become Just matter of form.
