Palmer Also Talks OPPOSES IMMIGRATION BAN rf i By tli Associated PrM Euton, Pa., Oct." 15. (Jovcinor SproiU'g address at the Founders' Day ierctsg at Lafayette College today was informal, or o lie described it. n "neichborly talk." The Ooycrnor told I his hearers that during his college da.s at. Swarthjmore, and sinre, he had known more liafayctte men and hud known them better, he belie,ved. than the alumni of any other Allege except his own The Governor spoke of his early days at Swarthmorc when he and Attorney General Palmer were roommates and of ho'w they had discussed their am bitions and of his pride in his friend who had attained the great place which he so creditably is filling. Aiucneu was n politician even then," said Governor Sproul, "pud he had a Democratic slant in his political faith that seemed inherent, so deeply was it ingrained in his make-up. Hut wetook our political differences more seriously then, before we could vote, than we ever have since, and now it would be hard to define them at all." Discussing Founders' Day, Governor Sproul dwelt upon the habits of thrift and the patriotism which made possible the establishment of great philanthro pies "by people whose incomes, measur ed by latter clay standards, would seem meager indeed." He said many people seemed to think that as a result of the war "nil laws of nature, economics and good living had been swept aside" nnd that man could legislate subitaiice out of shadow and material out of void, tie reminded his hearers that the law of gravitation had not been repealed and that the old principle of supply and demand and the requirement that we must work to purchase the necessities of life, even in a country so God-favored as the 1'nited States, were just as much in evidence now as at nny other time in history. The Governor said he believed one of the lines of political division in the loimtry must be between those who be lieve in the institutions of Americn, in her government and her institutions, nnd those who do not. He said it might be necessary to re turn to the old principles of faith in ourselves and in our God. in the mili tant spirit shown by the founders, nnd i EL jPSC'TOB mim! l&w ' ft .wMP3HIF7..- s - .MMt, "- " i 22 I POLICES T ARTWAR ON GAMBLING HER I hidden by paper seals with the winning number at the top of the cavd, nlso hid den from view.

Industry A THINK of the appeal in a Six Cylinder Car, built for the motorist of moderate income ! The car must be one of unusual economies. Only big quantity produc tion can make such a car pos sible and quantity produc tion is not possible without a revolution from old principles of construction. ' The Willys Corporation has produced exactly such a car. It is a revolutionary Six and is one of the few great forward steps in automobile history since the invention of the pneu matic tire. It fills a great gap in the industry and has a field all to itself. ( Behind this revolutionary car is the Willys Corporation, one of the biggest and strong est manufacturing concerns in the automobile industry. At its head is John N. Willys, president also of the Willys Overland Company, who has successfully built and sold over 650,000 automobiles. The business of the'Willys Corporation, exclusive of the building of the new Six, is the manufacture of Electric Auto-Lite, starting and light ing systems, and New Process Gears for transmissions and differentials of automobile trucks and tractors. The Electric Auto-Lite bus iness is the largest in its class in the industry More starting and lighting sets for automo biles are, and have been made by this company than by any other two concerns in the busi ness Production is now at a rate of over sixteen hundred complete' sets per day. and orders for future deliveries are on hand for four thousand sets per day This company sup plies the principal automobile, builders. The New Process Gear business was organized in 1 9 1 2 Today it is one of the largest in the industry, and. because of the high quality of its prod ucts, the demand is constantly expanding The factory covers a seven acre site and employs from 1800 to 2000 highly skilled operators. In addition, the Corpora- tion is producing the Willys Light for the lighting of coun try homes and farms. In the month of August alone, orders were received for 20,000 Willys farm-light outfits. The extensive plants of these units are located at Toledo. O.. Syracuse, N. Y., and Poughkecpsie, N.Y. Th'ey will be sources of supply for the construction of the new Six. For the building of the new car the plant of thcDuesen berg Motors Company, at Elizabeth, N J., was pur chased and is being enlarged to give a capacity of 400 co 500 complete motor cars per day The new Six has many new and outstanding features an entirely new, but thoroughly proven, type of spring sus pension being one of them. The car is of remarkably light weight approximately 2,100 pounds and has notable road holding, non skidding and easy riding qualities. It has extraordinarily low gasoline consumption 17 to 20 miles per, gallon. The chassis is a marvel of sim plicity. The details are all noteworthy' , Anyone desiring further in formation about the plans and car program ot the Willys Corporation should write for our booklet. v i IL.
