Writes of Russia and
Proposed Blockade
Beverly W. Kunkel. a son of Mr.
and Mrs. Charles A. Kunkel, of Har
risburg". has written an interesting
letter to the New York Times iroin
Easton regarding Russia and the
proposed blockade of He
"Professor Charlton M. Ili6wls, * n
his interesting: letter to The Times,
apparently ignores the fact that with
command of Russia's food the block
ade of Germany would cease to bo
of any consequence. Although it
mav be perfectly true that the food
reserves in the Ukraine are greatly
reduced, and that the cultivation of
the fields has been sadly neglected
during the last few years, still the
potentialities are there and Germany
will use them for herself if allowed
to continue her penetration.
"While Germany may be suffering
much on account of insufficient, food
to-dav due to the blockade. the
stomachs of Germany may be filled
abundantly with Russian wheat so
that Germany and her vassals in
Middle F,uropa and Russia will be
self-supporting and capable of carry
ing on the present war for an in
definite period against the AlUe.
The unprincipled, peaceful entrance
of Gerinanv into Russia via the
Brest-I-itovsk negotiations must be
regarded as a Teutonic success of
the ttrst order.
"It is high time that the Allies
learned from Germany that the pro
gram of world domination involves
more than military exploits. By
political and economic methods, as
well as military. Germany is extend
ing her power to the east. Russia
must be brought at once to a rea
lization of the calamity to herself
of German infiltration. How this
mav be one
most difficult diplomatic problems
that the war has occasioned. But
the problem must be solved, and
: jived promptly."
Senator Penrose Hits
Railroad Extravagances
Philadelphia. June 24.—Criticism
of the Wilson administration, espe
cially of the way it is conducting: the
railroads of the country and its
"wasteful and improvident projects"
is made by Senator Penrose, who
predicts that the Republicans will
control the next House. Four Demo
cratic members of the present House
from Pennsylvania, he said on Sat
urday, would be succeeded by Re
publicans next November.
"Railroad passengers," said Sen
ator Penrose, "are now being trans
ported under conditions that are lit
tle better than those provided on cat
tle trains. Some of the greatest men
in America travel several times a
week In the service af the govern
men, without compensation, in trains
that are late, overcrowded and ex
pose their passengers to every hard
ship.
"These conditions are certainly not,
necessary from the point of view of
economy, or from any other point of
view. While many prominent Ameri
can citizens stand in the corridors
of day coaches between Washington
and New York City .it is consoling
to read that Mr. and Mrs. William
G. McAdoo arrived at Washington in
their private car, with Miss Sallie
McAdoo and Miss Helen Curussi. The
newspaper notice does not disclose
what government or other business
they were engaged in at the time."

Perhaps We Have Talked Too Much
About The "Hot Spot"
and the "Ram's-Horn"
•
Some Chalmers owners tell us that we have not done the car full justice
in our advertisements of late, by emphasizing these two mechanical features
to the exclusion of others.
Now perhaps they are right in that and yet—we do not wholly agree
with them.
If we have tried to impress you with the fact that Chalmers engineers
had evolved in these two features, something of inestimable value to you
and of almost revolutionary influence on automobile engineering, surely the
space was not wasted.
Besides, we assumed of course that you already knew the Chalmers to be
one of the best motor cars ever built.
The Chalmers has always been a great motor car—speaking of the car
in general terms.
For many years past you and every other motor-wise person have con
sidered it among the first two or three high class cars.
And we did feel that in the two features above mentioned, we had added
to excellence of finish, smoothness and easy riding qualities, an engineering
discovery that made this luxurious Chalmers also more economical to operate
and thereby placed it in a class by itself.
If we have erred in this we will change and tell you about other Chalmers
features, on any one of which a volume might be written.
But—are you sure you fully appreciate what a tremendous difference
the "Hot Spot" and the "Ram's-Horn" combination make in the power
and economy and the smoothness of an automobile?
Certainly not all buyers do appreciate that —for some are still buying
other cars!
And we can't imagine anyone buying any other car in this class if he
knew the difference—and could get a Chalmers.
