Automobile show time is here
again, and to the thousands who
will visit these exhibitions and to
the additional hundreds OF thou
sands of automobile owners who
will learn of what is new in the
automobile world by reading about
it or by seeing the new cars In
dealers Showrooms or on the
streets, automobile show time
means merely the period that
marks the appearance Of new mod
els-the annual lifting OF the cur
tain on what the engineers and
manufacturer have to offer Tor
the ensuing year.
VALUES DECLARED GREATER
To us of the automobile indus
trv. however, the real significance
of the show season-this year as
in former years-is not that we are
showing to the public, for the first
time, models that are merely new,
but that they are both new and
better.
They are cars that represent
greater values than ever before;
cars that offer more in comfort
and beauty and Safety-Smoother
riding qualities, easier handling,
more efficient peri orm a n C e
greater economy and satisfaction
in every way. And this, of course,
because they incorporate improve

PUBLIC KNOWS VALUES

Because all this is true of the
1898 cars which the public now has
an opportunity to see for the
first time, we have no misgivings
as to what business is going to be
like during the coming year. The
public has a keen discernment OF
value and the automobile industry,
year after year has progressed
because this has been its formula
from the start; to give ever in
creasing value for the money re-
ceived in return for its products.

WILKINS HONORED
AT SOVIET DINNER
Missing Flyers Believe d
Safe, Diplomat Tells Ex-
pIOrer Who Aided Hunt.
BY the Associated Press.

Voicing the conviction that Sigis-
mund Ievanevsky, missing Soviet
arctic flyer. and his five companions
still are alive, Constantine Umansky,
Soviet charge d'affaires, announced
yesterday that the search for them
would be continued indefinitely.
LevanevSky and his fellow aviators

ing a flight across the North Pole
from Moscow to the United States
Umansky's announcement was
made at luncheon at the Soviet En-
bassy in honor of Sir Hubert Wilkins,
the Australian polar explorer. who has
just completed fruitless aerial search
for Levanevsky in a Soviet owned
flying boat.
wilkins Reports to Embassy.
Accompanied by his crew of four
men. wilkins flew here to report to
Russian officials on the results of
their hunt, which involved five long
distance flights covering 10000 miles
of arctic waste. The explorer and
his men also expressed the belief
there was a good chance that the
missing fliers survived their forced
landing.
Umansky praised Wilkins for his
efforts, saying that while the search
was unsuccessful, it contributed much
valuable scientific and meteorological
information which will be used in
further efforts to locate the missing
men.

CHURCH IS FACING
CONVENTION FIGHT
Episcopal Session Will Air
Move to Disprove Profit
Motive in Industry.
BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, September 25.-A
movement to have the Episcopal
Church disapprove the profit motive
in industry promised today to aggra-
vate controversy between conserva-
tives and liberals at the church's fifty
second triennial general convention,
opening here October g.
The movement is fostered by men,
bers OF the Church League for Indus
trial Democracy, which has drawn
criticism for inviting Homer Martin,
president of the United Automobile
Workers Union, to speak at one of its
forums here.
Rev. William Spoffard Of New York,
secretary of the league. has prepared
a resolution opposing the profit system
for submission to the supreme legisla-
tive body Of the church.
NOn-PrOfit System
League members here were not GER
tain whether the resolution would rec
ommend q substitute. Many of them
favor the consumers non-profit sys-
tenn. one type OF which is promoted
widely by the farm bureaus.
Some hackers Of the resolution
doubtful Of whether 1t will pass, feel il
will serve to bring attention to the
leagues campaign to bring the work
ing man closer to the church.
One OF the leagues objectives is to
counteract the opinion, current In some
cities, that the Episcopal Church is q
communion principally for the middle
and upper classes.
New Order Forecast.
Bishop Edward l.. Parsons OF Cali
fornia, league member, asserted some
time ago that "a new order is coming
whether We like 1t or not We are
living in the twilight Of the gods OF
capitalism"
Remarking that there is much
Christianity in the world" Bishop
Parsons said that what is wrong is
the social order which expresses not
the spirit OF Christ as 1t is expressed
in many welfare enterprises and "a
social order which puts the emphasis
upon wealth and power and conse-
crates the sin Of avarice."
The principal aim OF the league.
which was organized nearly 20 years
ago and embraces many prominent
Episcopal clergymen as members. lis
to apply the principles Of Christ to
social and industrial life"

SNAKE STORY
TOLD IN SOMERSET co.

How would you like to start up
your stairs tonight, and find an enor-
nous black snake coiled up on one
of the steps? Well, that's just the
situation that confronted the family
of Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd Mason, who
beside near Cash Corner on Route l
Somerset County.
When the family began to retire,
they were confronted by a black
snake, several feet long. They were
frightened into frenzy, but so was
the black monstrous snake.
Before the snake was located in
a closet downstairs, however, much
of the furniture of the house had
to be removed, and it was about mid
night before the reptile had been kill
ed, and the children had been quieted.
It is thought that the snake was
in search of mice, as trace for any
more of his kind was lacking both
in evidence and actuality.

FOUND SNAKE HANGING
FROM PICTURE FRAME

Thomas W. Bacchus, Jr., who owns
a farm, located near Providence, &C.
Gil county, about seven miles north
of Elkton, had several surprises in
store for himself when he returned to
the farm, after short stay with rela-
tives in Wilmington, Del.
His family was spending some time
in Maine, and the mansion house had
been closed during his absence; the
farmer residing in another house. At
ter he entered the house and began
strolling around much to his bewilder-
ment he noticed blacksnake, several
feet long, hanging from one of the
pictures on the wall. Like most other
people, he had no use for snakes and
ran out of the building and summon
ed help. When he returned with a
man employee on the farm, armed
with a club, the reptile had disappear
ed. A search failed to reveal its
hiding place. When about ready to
give up the hunt, much to the sur
prise of Mr.. Bacchus and his compan-
ion the radio in the room came on and
music greeted them. This made each
of the men suspicious as they knew
no one had been in the house to turn

SENATOR PHOEBUS is
DEFENDANT IN SUIT

Suit was filed last week in the Som
erset County Circuit Court by the Red
Star Lines, Inc, against Senator Har-
ry T. Phoebus and his wife, of Prin-
cess Anne.
The suit sought to recover damages
of $4,000, sustained, according to the
bus company's declaration, when an
automobile owned by Senator Phoebus
and driven by his wife crashed into a
Red Star bus near Grasonville last
March Is.
The declaration charged that Mrs.
Phoebus lost control of her automobile
which swung over on the left side of
the highway, "encroaching upon the
right of the plaintiffs motor
bus"
The company alleged that The bus
was greatly damaged in the accident,
and that it was deprived of the use
of the bus for some time as result
of the accident.

OLD eastern SHORE"
APPEARS In CRISFIELD

A revival of "Steamboatin' Days"
was apparent in Crisfield, when the
rejuvenated Eastern Shore formerly
of the B. C.. & A. Steamboat Lines,
came back to port.
This time, the Eastern Shore, trim
and neat, spic and span, was propell-
ed by twin Diesel Engines of $50
horsepower each, instead of the steam
driven side-wheels and over-hanging
superstructure when she first appear
ed in Crisfield more than half cen
fury ago.
The vessel, in command of Capt
Charnick, with officer Cant and Pur-
ser Bounds, in addition to a picked
up crew of deck hands and engineers,
brought load of potatoes from the
Eastern Shore of Virginia to be
loaded aboard the freight cars at Girls
field.
The Eastern Shore has been rebuilt
in Norfolk, and is expected to appear
soon again on Onancock- Crisfield- Bal
timore run for the Baltimore, Girls
field and Onancock Lines. With all of
the old superstructure and overhang-
torn away and staterooms and hold
entirely new and of modern design,
the Eastern Shore now presents a
graceful appearance, nearly stream
line. Now the vessel will be of very
light draft, requiring only one and a
half feet at the bow, and less than
four feet astern, when light. With a
cargo of eight carloads of potatoes
she drew less than six feet of water
on her first trip.
Asked how the speed compared
with the old Eastern Shore, her en-
gineer said that the engines had not
yet been tuned to proper, efficiency,
but that at present the boat was at
least as speedy as before conversion.
The old Eastern Shore steamboat
was built at Wilmington, in February
1883, and was put on the Baltimore,
Deals Island, Crisfield run back in
those early "Steamboatin' Days" The
present officers have been on the run
since before the B. C. & o. line was
having served on the same
vessel, and, on the Lexington, sister
Diesel-driven boat, before being trans
ferred to the present ship.
1t is understood that the Lexington
will be re-powered with heavier en-
gines, so speedier service can be had
between Baltimore and this seton
of the Eastern Shore, and that the
reconditioned vessel that was in port
on Wednesday will be on the run while
the Lexington is transformed.
