ords of the performances and an
nouncement of the winner will be

newspaper men who are acting as
judges. "
Despite the fact that the runs started
over roads made muddy by almost two
days' steady rain, the general average
made by the 105 competing dealers
was better than 20 miles per gallon of
gasoline. Oil consumption was corre
spondingly low.
Reports received thus far tell of
unusual records made by C. F. Seward,
of Kokomo, Ind., and E. H. June, of
Binghamton. N. Y., both of whom
drove through from Detroit to their
home, towns and averaged better than
26 miles to the gallon of gasoline all
tbe way.
It is announced that H. Ross Mad
docks, of Boston, has been awarded
the special prize given to the dealer
covering the longest distance in his
drive. Mr. Maddocka drove to Boston,
making 641 miles and averaging 20
miles of gasoline all the way. He made
a nonstop run from Buffalo to Boston.
The chief prize, a' reproduction in
bronze of the figure which features the
Snxon trademark, will be awarded to
the dealer making the best showing in
economy and all-round performance.
The Judges will consider the reports
sent in by the contestants from the
standpoint of gasoline and oil con
sumption, road conditions, weather
conditions, length of trip and average
speed maintained throughout. Each
entrant had to make a run of 100
miles or more in order to qualify for

city, from Detroit to Milwaukee In an
endeavor to win the honors. She cov

the gallon of gasoline. So far as is
known, ihls is the first Instance of a
woman entering an automobile con
test. The driver of this car made one
of the longest trips taken by any of the
dealers.
William ("Billy'") ICnlpper, of
Rochester, N. Y., who achieved na
tional fame several years ago in many
speed events, sprung a sensation by
driving from Detroit to Rochester con
tinually day and night. He covered
462 miles with an average of 24 miles

Chalmers Company Profits
by Suggestion Contest
With the announcement of a SSOO
prize suggestion contest', Hugh Chal
mers has struck a new keynote in the
automobile wofld.
"I am a great believer in the de
velopment of my men," declared Mr.
Chalmers. "In a factory employing
upwards of 5,000 men there is bound
to be a great deal of hidden talent
that has not ben given a chance to
shape itself.
"From now on the suggestion con
test will be a regular part of the
factory program. Already the em
ployes are displaying a great interest
in this plan, and we are receiving
many suggestions every day. In the
future in making promotions or in
creasing wages, we will take into
consideration the number o* good
suggestions made by an employe,"
continued Mr. Chalmers
"We need the suggestions of our
employes to help us to run this busi
ness properly. We want every indivi
dual to take a personal interest in
the success of this company, and to
show our appreciation we are offer
ing S6OO in cash prize* to those who
give us ideas and suggestions that can
be used to advantage."
In accordance with the plans of the
contest. SSOO in gold will be awarded
the winners on December 24. The
first prize is SIOO. There are two
prizes of SSO. five of S2O, twenty of
$5, twenty of $2.50 and fifty of sl.
The nature of these suggestions
may take many forms. Improvements
in machinery, substitution of ma
chinery for manual labor, reduction
in costs, precautionary health and
fire measures, reduction in cost of
transportation, express and mail,
sales.
The contest is open to all employes
except "officials. Only those sugges
tions from heads of departments, su
perintendents, foremen, engineers,
designers and inventors which relate
to work other than their own will
be considered. As soon as the first
contest is closed another one will be
initiated.
FINAL WORD OF U. S. IN
MESSAGE TO BERLIN

ment awaited further developments.
The note does not necessarily call
for a reply. It leaves the way open,
however, for an answer from Ger
many disavowing; the sinking of the
Lusltania and offering reparation, sub
mitting assurances as to the future
actions of her naval officers, and, even
asking directly for mediation by the
United States between the German
and British Governments on the gen
eral subje/ of Warfare on the sea.
The use in the note of the phrase
"deliberately unfriendly" is viewed
here as expressing the final word of
the United States Government regard
ing Germany's submarine warfare. The
United States does not abate in any
respect, but rather more strongly In
sists upon, the demands made in pre
vious notes thf}t Germany acquiesce In
its views that the rules of International
law and humanity be obeyed in her
naval warfare.
Freedom "At Any Cost"
The United States Government can
not believe, the note says, that "the
imperial government will longer re
frain from disavowing the wanton
acts of its naval commander in sink
ing the Lusltania," and making repa
ration for the lives of Americans lost
in that disaster. It announces that
the Rotcramrat will continue to con
tend for the freedom of the seas "from
whatever quarter violated, without
compromise and at any cost."
The note also invites the practical
co-operation of the German Govern
ment in an effort to bring about the
freedom of the seas; declares that the
American Government cannot discuss
actions of Great Britain and that it'
regards as "irrelevant" in the present
negotiations the conduct of other bel
ligerents, points out that recent events
have clearly indicated that It Is "pos
sible and practicable" to conduct sub
marine operations in substantial ac
cord with the accepted practices of
regulated warfare, and rejects Ger
many's proposal "that certain vessels
be designated and agreed upon which
shall be free on the seas now ille
gally prescribed."
The note is now In the hands of the
German Government and no reply is
expected for several weeks. President
Wilson and Secretary Lansing had left
Washington to-day.

Miller Tire Manager
Speaks of Yellowstone
W. F. Pfeiffer, general manager of
the Miller Rubber Company, who has
Just returned to Akron from the coast
and is one- of the many thousands of
motorists who are delighted at this
news, says: 'T*he horse has made his
last stand against the automobile in
Yellowstone National Park, as shown
by the announcement that this nation
al playground will be open to automo
biles the first of August."
Mr. Pfeiffer says that to make the
entire swing, taking in the six-thou
sand mile circuit of parks, including:
lellowstone, Glacier. Ranier, Crater
L*ke, Yosemite, General Grant and
Sequoi. would really require the larger
part of the summer, but that it could
be made on one set of tires.
For years Uncle Sam was opposed
to automobiles here, but Pfeiffer says
that, thanks to the American Auto
mobile Association, the motorists have
won.
As the plans now stand, automobiles
will leave half an hour in advance of
the rrtst stage coach jind traffic will
go one way only.
Inspectors will be made to see that
every car has enough gasoline to pre
vent stops that would permit horse
drawn vehicles to catch up. Army of
ficials will have complete charge pf
the traffic and telephone stations will
be placed along the route.
