Taft Wants to Distribute
Relief Supplies in All Land
Controlled by Teutons
Washington, July 11. The Amer
ican Red Cross made public to-day a
letter from William H. Taft, chair
man of the society's central commit
tee, which has been forwarded by the
State Department to the British For
eigr office asking that a Red Cross
commission be permitted to go into
territory controlled by the Teutonic
nllies and distribute relief supplies.
The British government is barring
such supplies now on the ground that
withdrawal of the Red Cross hospital
units has left no distributing agency
to insure that consignments are not
put to military use.
Mr. Taft's letter pledges the faith
of the Red Cross that the proposed
commission, names of whose members
would be submitted to the British
government in advance, would see
that the supplies went for relief pur
poses only. The foreign office has not
replied.
New Overland Climbs
High Mountain on High
Another demonstration of the power
of the modern light weight cars took
place near Altoona, Pa., several days
ago when one of the New Series 758
Overlands went up Buckthorn Moun
tain, one of the highest elevations in
on high gear.
i-his Is a feat that has stumped
many six-cylinder cars in the past.
Naturally, its accomplishment has
given the light, economical 758 great
er prestige than ever in the eyes of the
automobile world. Buckthorn Moun
tain, just outside of Altoona, Pa., Is a
long, seven-mile hill, full of steep
grades, that reaches a height of 2,850
feet. A number of slx-cylindered mo
torcar manufacturers use It as the ex
perimental grounds for their products.
To thoroughly test out the New Ser
ies Model 758, just received from the
factory, J. L. Bender, Overland dealer
at Altoona, decided to put one through
its paces up Buckthorn Mountain. As
the accompanying photographs show
the feat was no light task, but the new
series Model 758 came through with
flying colors, doing the entire seven
miles up hill and down dale at an
average of 25 miles an hour.
This demonstration of the power of
the new 75B's motor is entirely in
keeping with the reports being receiv
ed from all over the country. Almost
simultaneously with the report of the
climb up Buckthorn Mountain came
word that a similar reat up Lookout
Mountain near Chattanooga, Tenn.,
had been accomplished. Up in Maine,
a New Series Overland 758 passed
over a road that had not been in use
for 4 0 years without a scratch or mar.
A match salesman in Texas reported
crossing "Big Sandy" a flve-mile de
sert of sand between Red Rock and
Kosanky, Texas, in a New Series Mod
|el 758 without the aid of mules, a
stunt that has rarely been accom
i pushed.
With such reports from dealers and
owners, The Willys-Overland Company
has reason to feel, confident that In
this new model it nas a car that
should prove the most popular design
it has ever placed on the automobile
market.
