TUESDAY EVENING,
aUftKAbIMS BUSY
PLANNING CAMPAIGN
[Continued from I'irst l'age. ]
ernor and the nest move is to place it
before the voters.
B.v a vote 01" 37 ayes to It nays, the
resolution proposing the woman suf
frage amendment to the Pennsylvania
Constitution was passed linally by the
Senate last night. The issue now goes
to the voters of the Stale for Uecisiun
at the coming Fall election.
The passage of the resolution was
hailed by the greatest demonstration
that lias marked the session up to tills
time. The Senate gallery, the aisles,
and even the sacred carpet whereon
the Senators sit. were crowded with
women, most of them suffragists.
Everywhere the yellow colors and yel
low flowers of tho suffragists shone
beneath the face of fair women. Hire
and there, not at ail In such abund
ance, were the red roses of the anti
suffragists.
Lieutenant Governor McClain in the
chair wore one of the yellow flowers,
and when, just after the demonstration
folowlng the announcement of the
vote, one of the Senators opposed to
the resolution complained about the
"noise," Mr. McC'lain's answer was:
"Don't you know this is ladies" night?"
A significant point in the arguments
of those Hcpublicans who opposed the
amendment was that the members of
the legislature were nominated before
the Republican platform containing the
suffrage pledge had been adopted. The
question, therefore, at once arose
whether or not the same argument
would not be used against other plat
form pledges.
Senator Crow, Republican State
chairman, who opposed the resolution
two years ago, opened In its .favor last
night, citing the party pledge, lie was
seconded by Senator Varo. Senators
Martin and Hilton also spoke in favor,
Senator Beidleman spoke against the
resolution, reiterating his view that the
people of the State and of his district
in particular were against suffn>~-, lie
said he felt it his duty to vote as he
did out of regard for the sentiment of
his constituents. He thought nine
tenths of the members would vote as
he did had they made as careful an in
quiry as he had. He said members
elected last November were nominated
before the State Republican platform
was adopted and therefore not strictly
bound by it. Senator Thompson, of
Reaver, also spoke in opposition.
Many Senators like McNlchol, of
Philadelphia, believe the amendment
stands no chance this Fall. Senator
Crow in his address emphasized this
when he said:
"A vote here to support the resolu
tion does not mean that members of
the Legislature are obliged to stipport
the resolution at the polls."
The vote in favor was:

Mrs. Horace Brock, president of tho
Pennsylvania Association Opposed to
Woman Suffrage, commented thus on
the Legislature's action:
"The anti-suffragists of Pennsylva
nia are entirely satisfied with the de
cision of the Legislature to submit wo
man suffrage to the voters.
"Having made a careful survey of
the State during the last two years? and
having studied the national tendency
toward economy, efficiency and conser
vation. illustrated by the rejection of
woman suffrage by eleven States since
November 1, lit 14, we have no fear for
the result in November, after which wo
men will lie able to resume their normal
life and charitable and civic activities,
which have been most seriously Inter
ered with by this agitation or "votes
for women.'
International Has Jitney
Service For Visitors
The International motor truck de
partment are having an independent
exhibit in their new headquarters, Cl 9
Walnut street. Free transportation to
visitors from their headquarters to
both automobile shows is a courtesy
extended from the 13th to the 20th,
inclusive.
C. J. Stevens, manager of the Inter
national motor truck department, an
nounces that for the benefit of Inter
national truck owners they have es
tablished a complete service station,
which will lie at the command of all
International truck owners, no matter
how old their trucks may be.
This supply house will carry an
abundant line of motor trucks of the
popular sizes, also a complete line of
truck parts, thus savins valuable time
and extra expense to their hundreds
of patrons. These vital features, to
gether with the reliability of the
manufacturing company and the sales
agency back of it. speak for the per
! manency of the International motor
truck department .
Merchants can no more disregard
the advantages of the motor truck
than their daily papers and telephones.
Business lirins now recognize the fact
that new trade is necessary and horse
and wagon delivery will limit them to
a restricted territory and volume.
The motor truck permits a large
expansion of trade and the Inter
national is constantly making deliv
eries to progressive firms who believe
in trade expansion.
The smaller firms formerly held to
the Idea that the motor truck was only
practical for the larger concerns, but
have now broadened their views, lost
that business timidity and are pur
chasing trucks as a matter of economy
and business expansion.
The many up-to-date features of the
new 1915 models of International mo
tor trucks are both interesting and
pleasing to the many visitors and pur
chasers now calling at the Inter
national motor truck department, 619
Walnut street, Harrisburg, Pa.
Gear Ratio of Hudson
Is Nearest Perfection
Chief Engineer G. G. Behn, of the
Hudson, likes to take on technical
topics. But he has a way of investing
them with a simplicity and clearness
that makes these dry subjects attrac
tive to any motor car enthusiast. Most
buyers know very little on the fea
ture of gear ratio, and yet it is vital,
Mr. Behn says, to real motor car sat
isfaction.
A twenty horse power truck motor
can pull a huge load up a pretty stiff
grade, and do it at a fair speed. It
does it, however, very noisily and with
excessive vibration. Some people think
ilhat they would like fo have low
power motor of this kind in their car,
and have an idea that they would
then gain fuel economy, and yet have
plenty of power. Mr. Behn shows
how this idea is a fallacy because the
motor would require to turn over at
such a tremendous rate In order to
gain driving-wheel speed, that it
would not be satisfactory for a pleas
ure car.
On the oilier hand, a motor that is
geared too high does not produce sat
isfaction because 11 must of necessity
have a very powerful motor in order
to overcome the high gear ratio.
There is an Ideal in this, as in all
automobile designing. A moderate
gear ratio makes tho ideal car for a
pleasure car. It gives excellent power
on hills and under difficult road con
ditions, and yet It is sufficiently high
so that the motor operates pleasantly,
and without vibration or noise. Very
low gear ratios, because of tremen
dous speed, are apt to prove unpleas
ant and costly at speeds of thirtv
miles per hour and over.

Trucks in War Prove
Their Worth to Commerce
"Brodbingnagians of Battle and of
Business" is the title of a ltvewira bul
letin now being issued by the Pack
ard Motor Car Company. It contains
a thought for American businessmen:
Mars is motorized.
Gasoline is greater than gunpowder.
Twentieth century war demands the
power of high explosives put into har
ness.
Never was an engine of war sub
jected to such tests as the motor true);
in Europe. That the engine in this
case was taken from the humdrum
commercial field intensifies the tri
umph. Truly, the great war will go
down as the automobile armageddon.
Trains of motor trucks are the chief
means of transport. They carry food
for the men and food for the cannon.
They carry also the cannon.
By their faith in the motor truck,
the captains of war have shamed the
lesser faith of many captains of indus
try.
When the Germans poured across
Belgium, one saw storehouse, bakc
shop, forge, and cobbler shop setting a
pace which would have ditched Sher
man's Atlantic Mule Express, the old
time record holder as a war special.
Compared to these massive steel car/
riers, Hannibal's elephantine trans
ports were puny things. They were
good in their day but a bigger day has
dawned.
On the present crazy-quilt contour
of cramped old Europe, where to-day's
trench is traded to-morrow, railroads
do not stay put. What you don't te'ir
up in your retreat, the enemy destroys.
Bridges and tunnels are dynamited,
embankments effaced, rails warped
and terminals razed.
War was the opportunie.v of Atner-1
ican motor trucks. How did they re-!
spond ?
The Department of Commerce shows!
that truck shipments have averaged!
in value from two and one-half to
three and one-half millions of dollars
per month since last Fall. Morel
trucks have been shipped in thirty!
days than were shipped during the
whole of 1913.
It is a war on wheels. Trucks
brought up the "Jack Johnsons" that
"goluinpused" the forts at Liege, Mau
beuge and Naniur. Galliene motored
70,000 men from Paris to Meaux, thir
ty miles, in six hours when he heard
Von Kiuck knocking at the outer
gates of the French capital. Thirty
thousand motor vehicles account for
the amazing mobility of the Kaiser's
forces in the eastern theater of war.
In the rear, in the van, rushing am
munition lo the breech of the cannon,
hurrying the thousands of wounded to
the base hospitals, the truck has
traveled over good, bad, worse and
even no roads in every plague of
weather.
In the destructive work of wartime,
the motor truck is no longer on trial.
How long will the generals in the con- j
structive work of commerce cling to |
their timeworn methods of hauling?
To-day In Europe, the tramp, tramp,
tramp—what there is of it, is lost in
the putt, putt, putt of the "lorries."
The motor truck/ has even muffled i
the drums of war. Along witli the I
fife, the drum has passed to the mu
seums. The pulse of the gasoline mo
tor is the only soul ignition the fighter
of to-day asks or can hear. The mo
tor truck carries the superior force to j
the point of contact.
What the motor truck has done in ?. I
few months In war, it is certain to do
more gradually in the more deliberate
contests of business. Never before
was the motor truck so full of inter
est for men who arc on speaking terms
with opportunity.
Valve-in-head Motors
Have Won Many Races
The new Buick six-cylinder road
ster is the ear that attracted so much
attention at the New York and Phila
delphia shows. All of these the com
pany will manufacture have already
been disposed of to the different deal
ers. The motor is the most expen
sive single factor in the construction
»if the automobile, representing in
round numbers one-quarter of the
cost of the finished product. It must
be absolutely dependable, or your mo
tor car is worthless. Wherever power
and endurance are most needed the
valve-in-head motors are found effi
cient. Every winner in the American

• Local Reo Agency
Reports Excellent Business
The wonderful popularity of the
S Reo line of automobiles made by one
ot the greatest manufacturers in the
United States, has been very forcibly
s demonstrated by the quantity of cars
that the local representative, the Har
i- rlsburg Automobile Company have
s been handling in the last year. One
a hundred and fifty-seven cars were de
r Hvered in this territory during the
i. season of 1914, which was considered
, a very good year's business. The 1915
1 business is still far more gratifying' to
the Reo Company, and up to the
- present time George G. McFarland, of
- the Harrisburg Automobile Company,
jlias delivered to his customers 140
! Kco cars with four carloads on the
I j road for immediate delivery. A total
j of 212 orders have been taken for
a delivery up until the first part, of
> April. In addition to this business
they have stored fifty-one cars in
• S. B. Uomberger's storage warehouse
in South Tenth street. These stored
< summer months for late buyers and
t summer months for late bueyrs and
- were stored by tills enterprising firm.
! who knew very well that they would
- not be able to get enough cars during
1 the summer months to supply the de
r mand for this most popular car. The
>' popularity of the car has grown in
r leaps and bounds. Keo owners find
s they can drive their .cars, over all
■ kinds of roads the year around, 10,000
- miles at an average cost of between
• 2 and 3 cents a mile for all expenses

' it needs repairing it is so constructed
c that a repair bill is of a most moder
ate amount. The Harrisburg Auto

! There Can Be Xo Doubt About the
Results in Harrisburg
Results tell the tale.
All doubt is removed.
The testimony of a Harrisburg eiti- j
zen.
Can be easily investigated.
What better proof can be had? '
Mrs. William Shearer, 314 Nectarine I
street, Harrisburg, says: "One of the
family suffered from sharp, shooting i
pains through the small of his back. '
A feeling of languor clung to him and j
he had dizzy spells. On a friend's ad- I
vice he got a box of Doan's Kidney,
Pills and he felt better at once after
using them. The pains through his |
back left, the tired feeling went away I
and his health improved. As soon as
I get a pain in my back I take a few I
doses of Doan's Kidney Pills and they<
never fail to give me relief. I still j
hold as high an opinion of them now j
as when I publicly endorsed them." •

Its Supremacy Shows
In Its Utter Refinement
Any man who investigates will concede to the
HUDSON* the class place among Light Sixes.
Its supremacy is too apparent to be questioned.
It shows in every detail, in finish, in equipment.
Our whole engineering force, headed by • Howard
E. Coffin, has devoted for years to this model. So
every feature, big and small, shows the final touch.
But the all-important fact is that the HUDSON
Six-40 is the proved-out car of this popular type.
Over 10,000 cars—last year's model and this
year's—have been tested in owners' hands. They
have run for some 25 million miles without bring
ing out a single fault or shortcoming.
This model now has 10,000 endorsers among men
who know it well. Some of those men are near
you.
Your Questions
We have saved in this Light Six some 1,000
pounds. We have used new and better materials.
\\ e have equipped it with a new-type high-speed
motor. \\ e have reduced operative cost about 30
per cent. We have cut tire cost in two.
Now you want to know how these radical
changes affect what a car can do and stand.
Ihe HUDSON Six-40 has 10,000 answers to
every question of this kind. All those questions
have yet to be answered in a car that copies this.
I lie HUDSON Six-40, in its beauty and com
pleteness, will appeal to your pride of ownership.
Its records will appeal-to your judgment.
And Hudson service—the'best in America—will
appeal to your wish to have a car kept at its best.
Let us demonstrate them all.
