Labor

Continued From First Page.)
c. I. o. Green has been questioned at
several press conferences about his
plans toward his membership in the
mine workers after their suspension,
but he has declined to disclose any in
| tention to resign. The constitution of
the federation specifies that its presi-
dent and other elective officers must
be members of an A. F. Of L. union.
Coming not as direct answer to
the mine workers action, but probably
directed at Lewis, is the following ex-
cerpt from an editorial pronouncement
by Green in the issue Of the American
Federationist released today:
1.-THE success - ? depends upon the
disciplined unity with which the or
ganized labor movement operates, and
that In turn is conditioned by sincerity
with which all labor representatives
subordinate desire for personal pref
erence to the advancement of the cause
Of labor. The very success of our pol
icy will suggest that our organization
can be captured for the advancement
of individuals instead of the great
cause. But there would be no surer
way to destroy the influence of labor,
for its power rests upon its ideals and
its conservation to its great human
objective"
Aside from the factional fight, de-
velopments of the last "a hours in
labor circles point to determination
of leaders Of the movement to make
the most of four more years OF friendly
political administration.
Work for Labor's Friends.
Experience has taught u.s." Green
said, in discussing labor's political
policy, ''that few friends in strate-
gic representative places can be most
effective; therefore, labor has con-
centrated its efforts on electing Ia
boris friends to executive positions and
to law-making bodies"
With increasing significance, he
continued:
"Not only Is labor's political pro-
gram concerned with elected political
agents, but it includes such appointed
public servants as administrative Of
fcials and judges. Under our gov
ernmental procedure, judges may ef-
fectively veto legislation and block a
legislative objective. It is Of vital i'm
portance that lawyers appointed to
the judiciary should understand Ia
boris problems and why 1t asks for
specific laws. Z
1.-THE issue now turns on labor's in
sistence upon q real measure OF social
security as a just return for the ma
terial contribution 1t makes to So
ciety's comfort and needs. Labor viii

program designed to achieve this pur-
pose"

From sources close to the federation
leadership, it was learned that at
tempts will be made o-have the forth

gram for presentation to the next Con-

Veterans Put Bonus Money to Many Uses
Some Set Up Businesses Many Pay Debts and Some Blow
Cash for Sprees.
LMOST five months ago

A LMOsT five months ago the
n Federal Government poured
~ into the hands Of its World
4 \ War veterans millions Of
dollars Of bonus money. In the Dis
trict more than $4,000 veterans
received some $20,0o9,000 in bonus
checks.
Today, Armistice day. recalls the
sacrifices of these veterans and also
raises the question as to what has
become of the bonus millions dis
tributed here last June. The story is
that of the lives of those men now
in middle age, who Is years ago COM
pleted their war service and returned
to the ways Of peace, many Of them
to years of poverty, disability and
bitterness, others to the humdrum
lives Of average citizens, others to sue
cess and triumph.
1t is the story of Fred Seibel Regu-
lar Army veteran, who a year ago was
one of the jobless but who, with his
bonus money, purchased local florist
business and now Is carrying on his
own concern. 1t is the story of Ralph
Picchioni, who enlisted in the Navy
in the first week Of the war and who,
with his bonus money, established q
local cafe.

NIAGARA FALLS. N. Y. November
1l.-A live 175-mm. shell found in a
field near Lockport Monday lay safely
at the bottom of the Niagara River to-
day, while police speculated on how
it came to be lying out in the open.
Niagara Falls police carefully de-

ing dependent on individual
means of transportation, because
the continual improvement OF
roads and highways opens new
markets for automobiles and
trucks, and because people gen
orally have more money to spend
than they did a few years ago,
the market for cars and trucks
should continue to make good
business.
Industry Has Prepared
The automobile industry has
foresightedly prepared for this
growing market by investing, dur
ing the first nine months of this
year, more money than it has ex-
pended for similar purposes in a
very long time. Many new plants
have been built and equipped.
Obsolete machinery has been re-
placed. Manufacturing methods,

DIGNITY NOTE
OF LINCOLN

Styled in the tradition of quiet
dignity and unobtrusive luxury
that has marked the Lincoln motor
car from it's early days, the Lin.
coin VIZ for 1887 makes its debut
at the Automobile Show today
for the first time in Washington.
The new models reveal a major
advs1ce in body lines, richer and
more comfortable interiors than
ever before and a number of me-
chanical improvements.
The dignified character Of Lin
coin appearance has been retained,
yet it's style is more advanced, con-
Servatively adapting modern ideas
in aerodynamic design and appear
ance. In keeping wit, good taste,
the 1897 models are modern, but
not extreme in appearance.
Departing from former practice,
the head lamps are now recessed
in long-Sweeping tenders. The
curved rear deck inclines grace
fully to emphasi- the length and
new lower appearance Of the car.
The solid type windshield, which
affords better vision, is V-shaped
and rakes backward more sharply
to blend into the sweep of the top
from front to rear, and reduces
wind resistance. The door open
ing is extended to the running
boards, affording easier entrance
to the car.
Body interiors are completely
new, from the instrument panel
to the rear deck. The instrument
panel is entirely new-of modern
istic design.
The Lincoln car is built in but
one quality and one price range.
Wheelbase is either 1856 inches or
145 inches, depending on BODY
type. The engine is 15O-horse-
power with cylinder banks in V
formation. Improvements give
better all-around engine perform
ance.
There are 81 types, including
custom designs by Brunn, Jud-
kins, Willoughby and LeBaron.
Brunn contributes a convertible
victoria, cabriolet, non-collapsible
or semi-collapsible, brougham and
touring cabriolet; Judkins a ber-
line in either two or three window
types and a sedan limousine; and
Willoughby limousine, panel
brougham, five-passenger victoria,
sport sedan and seven-passenger
touring.
Most important of the mechani-
cal improvements is the use OF
hydraulic valve lifters in the en-
CINE. Brake drums are now OF cast
iron for longer wear and more ef'
ficient braking under severe con.
ditions. New louder horns are To-
Gated under the hood. The rooftop
is all metal and insulated from
side panels. It is used as a radio
antenna.

BIG YEAR SEEN
BY PACKER
BY w. M. PACKER

General Sales Manager, Packard Motor
Car Company
The automobile industry in 1887
is going to see one Of its biggest
years, if we can judge at all by
present indications. The expert
ence of the Packard Motor Car
Company can perhaps be used in
trying to determine the possibil1-
ties for the next IL months, be-
cause of the longer time we have
had our 1887 cars before the pub
lie. 1t definitely points to a record
breaking year. ,
Demand for our cars exceeded
our expectations when we an
nounced them early in September.
It has kept up and actually pro-
greSsively increased from day to
day through all of September and
October. During those two months
we could have sold twice as many
cars as it was possible for us to
build.
Despite our most intensive eff
forts to turn out more cars, we
were able to fill only half of the
orders we received from our dis
tributors and dealers in Septem-
Der and October. Important in
using our experience to form some
Judgment of what can be expected
by the industry in 1887 is the fact
that these orders are growing in
volume, rather than decreasing.
The whole business picture be-
fore us certainly looks good.

Chemistry Important
LIN Auto PROGRESS

Contributions made by the chem
ical industry to the 1887 models
which are being shown at automo-
bile shows have almost brought
the American automobile to the
point where it is a chemically
built car.
From the top of the sedan right
down to the tires on the road, the
chemical industry has played some
part in every material which en-
ters into the production of the
modern automobile and the day
may not be far distant when the
automobile will be a wholly syn
thetic car.
Greater Role Seen
Chemistry, having already been
a major contributor to the auto
mobile industry, may play an even
greater part in the future. sur
vey of the auto industry discloses.
More than any single industry, the
chemists art has entered into the
automobile. First, the finish on
all cars is a product of the chem
ical laboratory. The beautiful and
durable finish on the modern cars
would not have been possible
without the change wrought by
the laboratory. The colors of the
finish, the cleaners, polishes and
wakes have all been chemically
developed. 1t was the chemist who
changed the heavy metals in the
stationary engine to strong, light.

be used on the automobile where

portant.

toners, it is small wonder that
progressive companies regard the
friendship and respect of the Gus
toner as of prime Importance.
1t takes infinite pains to estab-
lish the personal touch between
a manufacturing company and
the consumer. Generally speaking
it is the personal touch that
forms the basis of friendly relar
tions with the customer.

laboratory is chloroprene rubber.
While this product is not yet
being used for tires, it is already
entering into the automobile for
such things as gasketS, washers,
running-board covers, floor mats
and connecting hoses where a
rubber which will resist oil and
other corrosive liquids is needed.
Tire Life Extended
Aside from chloroprene rubber,
the chemist has made notable
advances in lengthening the life
of rubber tires. Great improve
ment has been made in the con.
Struction of cord fabrics, but
even greater strides have been
made in recent years through the
use of accelerators and antioxi-
dants and the conditions of vul-
canizing. Not only has the life
of the tire been greatly increased,
but tire trouble on the road, so
common a decade ago, is now
almost a thing of the past.
Tires still blow out, it is true,
but usually only after many thou
sands of miles have been taken
out of them.
Nonshatterable glass is an
other product of the test tube
which has been widely adopted
by the industry. This consists
of a pyroxyln plastic, a product
of the laboratory, placed between
two sheets of glass, then welded
together, yielding windshieldS and
window glass that will not shat
ter. The danger Of injury from
flying glass in an accident has
been reduced by this product.
