Woollcy arrived from Washington early, nnd after viewing the parade went into conference with tho local committee. "Washington is pleased with the Phila delphia campaign " said Woolley, "but If the Liberty Loan is to be a success every body must do more There Is not a district In the country that has dono better work and none In which such splendid results h.no been shown, hut wo must not contuse the present-day situation with the real Issues nt stake The Government wants $:.noo.ono,nno. and If that sum la raised it must be raised through tho help of tho entire country Tho man it the lathe, tho farmer, thn banker, and, In fact, all must contribute " Wooley paid a tribute to the Philadelphia campaign commllleo by saying that Its methods nnd particularly Its advertising propaganda wero being copied In other districts. "The chief trouble," said tho publicity director. "Is In reaching tho 'llttlo fellows.' and Philadelphia seems to have solved that problem Tho local commlttco It getting wonderful results nnd proving Its ability to handle tho big allotment. "But moro and then more can bo done. This is America's war, and no American can stand by and permit others to do his work Washington expects that all men who cannot fight will work for tho Liberty Loan and builds Its hopes concerning tho success of the loan upon the co-operation of all tho people " PESSIMISTIC NOTE Woolley Injected a note of pessimism Into his statement by refusing to predict that tho loan will bo oversubscribed "No man can mako such a statement." he said, "and certainly no man connected with the cam paign In Washington we aro working and praying That is about all anyhody can do" The Importance of action on the part of Phllndelphlans was emphasized by Woolley when ho raid: "It Is difficult to reach the farmers be cause of their remoteness, and In view of the short time wo have It becomes necessary to build our hopes on Philadelphia and other big centers Theso people know about the loan and can offer no excuse for not participating act busy sell bonds und keep at It Is my advice " Brewers Drop Collectors HAZLKTON, Pa , June 5 All the brew- -erlea of the Lehigh coal field served notfe to saloonmen that starting with thta week, beer must bo paid for on delivery, as collectors aro being dropped to get rid of one Item of expense.

The present model, identically the same car, will be continued after that date. UNTIL THT DATE THE PRICE REMAINS $1395. It$Has always been a basic part-of Chandler policy to Keep the Chandler price low Wo1uive kept it. low. -Men considered tho original Chandler price of $1785 estab lished four years ago an impossible price. Later when the Chandler Company reduced that price to .$1595 the trade thought we were courting disaster. Further reductions came as a positive shock to the industry. And meanwhile tho Chandler Company prospered. Chandler business grew to front rank proportions. The C handler car was never cheapenedbut, rather, improved and-refined from season to season until the whole motor car purchasing public has come to recognize the Chandler car as a car of surpassing values. Our whole purpose has been to build tho best light-weight Six and sell it at-tho lowest possible price. We have sold the Chandler car for hundreds of dollars less than cars of similar quality Now, however, the Chandler price must be advanced. It must be materially advanced to cover greatly increased costs which have arisen this Spring by reason of unprecedented conditions in the material supply and labor markets and in problems of transportation. Production costs throughout the past three months have advanced steadily, and in long strides. This is a condition which we cannot control. It is a condition which we must meet. So the Chandler price must be advanced. In making this advance we do not depart from our firmly established policy of keeping the price just as low as it can be kept and still provide reasonable manufacturing profit. B At $1595 the Chandler car will still be under-priced. It will be distinctly .under-priced, as compared to other cars which some, may consider of similar quality. By test of any conceivable comparison this statement is a provable fact. Now you can buy this great Six at $1395 f. o. b. Cleveland. While the $1395 price holds, the demand will continue to greatly exceed our production, and we cannot guarantee deliveries.
