AUTO CHANGED
METHODS IN WAR
Today Army Transportation
Is a Marvel of
Speed
How the automobile has revolu
tionized methods of warfare was re
cently pointed out by President Sam'
uel P. Colt of the United States Rub
ber Company, manufacturers of
United States tires.
"In the days of the Civil War,"
said Colonel Colt, "transportation
was slow and tedious, being mostly
in the hands of the obstinate army
mule and the profane skinner. Op
erations and maneuvers which are
carried on daily in this war would
have been impossible then because
of the tardy distribution of supplies
and armament.
"To-day army transportation Is a
marvel of speed and dependability,
and rubber has been largely respons
ible for the change. The fast motor
truck of to-day could not have been
developed on steel tires, or on tires
of any known material other than
rubber. Motor trucks carry sup
plies for soldiers, ammunition for
their guns, and even the soldiers
themselves, making the army of to
day more than ever dependent upon
mechanical transportation for its ef
fectiveness. The entente armies at
the present time use in the neigh
borhood of 80,000 to 100,000 motor
trucks.
'The passenger automobiles with
rubber tires make it possible for the
commanders to oversee operations
on twenty, thirty, fifty and even one
hundred-mile fronts. They make it
possible for wounded men to be
quickly and carefully carried from
the battlefield to the modern hos
pitald. Thousands of lives are
weekly saved in this way. The mo
torcycle takes the place of the
mounted dispatch bearer of other
days. The total number of motor
cars in use by the entente allies, ex
clusive of trucks, is approximately
100,000."
PACKARD CO. ON
BIG WAR BASIS
Have One Hundred Per Cent.
War \V6rk Factory
From Now On
The entire resources of the Pack
ard Motor Car Company, plant and
man power, are to be devoted to war
work from now on. This announce
ment of a 100 per cent, war factory
was made to dealers and the public
to-day by Alvan Macauley, president
and general manager of the com
pany.
War esesntials to which Packard
now devotes itself exclusively are
airplane engines, motor trucks, air
planes and war tractors. The re
sources dedicated to the govern
ment's win-the-wa.r program include
the entire Packard plant of sixty
one factory buildings covering flfty
six acres of ground, unsurpassed
shop facilities, a rapidly growing
force of employes now numbering
12,000 men and women—all with a
production capacity mounting to
ward $100,000,000 a year.
In conformity with the wishes of
the government, the Packard,
through its motor transport depart
ment, will deliver trucks, to essential
industries only, co-operating to the
fullest degree with the war indus
tries board and the highways trans
port committee. All other new
product will be taken direct for the
military use of the government.
Thousands of Packard trucks are al
ready in active service on the west
ern front.
Packard service will be main
tained on the thousands of Packard
trucks now in use and on the 45,000
Packard passenger cars. The trucks
keep essential business going, and
most of the cars are devoted to es
sential transportation. Both these
factors work to relieve the present
over-taxed railroad traffic. This
service will be furnished through the
Packard's country-wide institution
for service. Service stations and
dealers will be supplied with essen
tial parts.
"This announcement is but a pub
lication of a fact already accom
plished," said Mr. Macauley. "The
President of the United States has
said that this Is the crisis of the
war. It is no time for half meas
ures. From now on, Packard is 100
per cent, in government service.
"While supplying the govern
ment's military needs to the best of
our ability, we shall try to maintain
through the furnishing of trucks to
essential industries and the continu
ing of service on Packard vehicles
now in use, that public confidence
and good will which the Packard
regards as its finest asset. The Pack
ard company is in business 'perma
nently, and our obligation to the
public is second only to our obliga
tion to the government."
Tells Why Miners Are
Striking For Higher Wages
A schedule of the rate of pay of
the men at the Williamstown col
liery of the Susquehanna Coal Com
pany has been sent to the Telegraph
by a miner to show why they are
striking' for a higher rate of pay.
The letter follows:
Williamstown, Sept. 19.
To the Editor of the Telegraph:
I note m your paper that D. V.
Randall, an official of the company
has made the announcement that
many miners average more than
S2OO a month, while envelopes con
taining S3OO and S4OO are not un
common among the men.
I note that Mr. Randall forgot to
state to the public that of the 1,129
union men employed at the Wil
liamstown colliery, that only about
30 per cent, are miners and the rest
on day rate.
I wish to state the rates of the
day rate as follows:
Insidl company miners $3.49
Inside labors and drivers $3.11
Outside laborers $2.54
Blacksmiths
Blacksmith helper *2.60
Firemen •• •' 1'
Braker boys $1.59 to $2.04
Yours respectively,

Mr. Randall has explained that he
was misquoted.—Ed.
PUBLIC MUST
DEPEND UPON
MOTOR TRUCK
Overland Transportation will
Increase, Says Duplex
President
"Overland transportation of manu
factured products, foodstuffs and
other materials by motor trucks will
increase immensely as the winter
months approach, due to an Inevit
able shortage of railroad shipping
facilities," says H. M. Lee, president
of the Duplex Truck Company, of
Lansing, Mich.
"While there was congestion at
the terminals, and shortage of
freight cars last winter, conditions
will certainly not bo Improved dur
ing the coming months because the
volume of war supplies to be han
dled by the railroads will greatly
exceed that of a year ago.
"This leaves but one outlet for
many shippers—the motor truck.
And scores of motor truck routes
will be opened during the winter
months of necessity.
This is an important matter to
the motor truck manufacturer, as
well as the general public which will
come to depend more and more
upon motor trucks for shipment of
freight.
"It ia important to the truck
manufacturer because he must now
build a truck that is absolutely de
pendable 365 days In the year or lose
out on the sale of trucks—hundreds
of trucks —-that will be utilized in
overland transportation work.
Trucks operated between cities
must be built with the year-round
service idea behind them. They
must have the power to haul capac
ity loads in winter, as well as sum
mer—through snow and ice in the
north, and mud and gumbo in the
south and west.
Motor trucks in this severe haul
age work must operate without help
from service stations and round
the-corner repair shops. They must
be rugged, powerful—equal to any
emergency.
"Because of the success with
which 4-wheel drive trucks are be
ing utilized under most adverse eon*
ditions, we are receiving many in
quiries from prospective operators
u nio * or truck lines. And because
they are dependable in districts
where roads are imaginary lines be
tween cities, and where towns are
little more than names, Duplex
trucks will play an important role
in the overland transportation of
freight during the coming winter."
Champion Motor Travels
22,022.3 Miles in 44 Days
After traveling, under Its own
power, almost 150,000 miles, It has
been found necessary to make a
single addition to the equipment of
the famous Maxwell World's Non
stop Champion. Finally, it had to
be done.
So slip covers have been added.
Only this and nothing more.
The champion is the famous Max
well which, running for 44 days and
4 4 nights, without a single momen
tary stop of the motor, attained the
unheard of distance of 22,022.3
miles, not in a store-window, but on
the roads. This record is not merely
a manufacturer's claim but an ab
solutely authenticated performance
held under the sanction and strict
observance of the American Auto
mobile Association—the court of last
appeal on all matters pertaining to
American motor records.
This single performance would
have been a life-work for any car
but, immediately after the record
run was finished, the Maxwell Cham
pion was sent on the road and has.
for the past two years, carried the
message of Maxwell into almost
every state in the Union, across the
Mexican deserts and into the wilds of
Canada. Battered is the body and
worn is the upholstery—hence, the
latest and only addition to the car
the slip-covers. Still sturdily, how
'evcr, this wonderful example of
Maxwell endurance, engine efficiency
and economy, chugs along and is
everywhere the recipient of a re
markable welcome from lovers of the
best in motors.
No fewor than 26 sets of tires hare
"done their hit" and been replaced
on the Champion and from present
reports in Texas, where the car now
is, many more will be needed before
the International Wanderer gives its
last gasp and is retired to the happy
hunting ground of good and faithful
servants.
Strangely enough, the Champion
has been in every city of importance
in the United States, except its birth
place—Detroit—since making its
record and plans are now being made
to give it an "Old Homo Week" in
the near future.

activities of the church and memen

here. As the name of this room im
plies, the contents therein will be
more or less equally divided between
the historical and missionary ac
quirements of the United Evangelic
al denomination. Noteworthy in the
collection gathered are documentary
and other proofs of the church's in
fluence in foreign lands notably in
China and Japan.

Wounded Harrisburg Boy
Reported Dead of Disease
Notified by the War Department
one week ago that her son. Corporal
Burnetts Pri.e Long was reported
wounded severely in France, Mrs.
Sarah A. Long, of 408 Forster street,
this city, is confronted by General
Pershing's casualty list to-day which
states that her boy is dead of dis
ease. Mrs. Long is at a loss to ac
count for the anomaly -which the two
reports crtfete especially so as only
yesterday the mother of the soldier
received a letter from the latter in
which he mentions having been
wounded but now on the road to re
covery. The nature of his wounds
was not uncovered by the young
corporal.
Corporal Long enlisted soon after
American's declaration of war enter
ing Company I, of the old Eighth
Regiment. He was sent with the rest
of his company into training at Camp
Hancock, Ga., after a short prelimin
ary encampment at Island Park. He
was an employe of the Iron and Steel
Company before enlistment
Wounded on August 26, while fight
ing for "Old Glory" somewhere in
France, is the word received of her
grandson. Private William J. Rader,
Company K, 112 th Infantry, yester
day by Mrs. Sarah Craver, of 44 North
Thirteenth street, this city. After
enlisting in York, August. 1917, Pri
vate Rader was sent to Camp Han
cock for overseas training. He sail
ed for action in May, 1918. Mrs.
Rader's information comes from her
grandson direct who says that he
was wounded in the right leg by
pieces of shrapnel.
Democratic Club Is
Opposed to Higher Fare
Calling the proposed increase in
fare by the Harrisburg Railways
Company as "unwarranted," branding
its original organization as "al
legedly high financed" and contend
ing that "public welfare" demanded
that it "should be made to show
the actual need for the increased
fares so that the present and sub
sequent generations shall know ex
actly from the record the reasons for
the move," the Central Democratic
Club at a meeting last night passed
resolutions directing its officers to file
a formal complaint with the Public
Service Commission protesting against
the increase. Amid much enthusiasm
the resolutions were unanimously
passed by the body.
The fund being collected by Charles
F. Quinn, secretary of the American
Federation of Labor, for financing a
legal hearing of the case, was added
to yesterday by a check from Car
penters' Union, No. 287 for $25 which
brings the total to date to $112.50.
Overland Model 90
Truly a Thrift Car
"Analysis of the demand for the
Overland Model 90 and continued re
ports as to its economical perform
ance clearly demonstrate that it is
deserving its title, 'The Thrift Car,' "
said Carl Hanson, Overland dis
tributor.
"To the many people who are driv
ing their own machines these days
and are conforming in the strictest
manner with the habits of conserving
time and energy with the use of
lighter and more economical cars,
this Model 90 is meeting the situa
tion as one especially adapted to
present day demands."

transportation affects the price of

Fix Price and Demand Full
Value When Buying an Auto
"Great energy is never more than
a contributing factor to a desirable
result and just as often it contributes
to failure," says the local dealer in
Dort cars.
"I often think of this fact in ob
serving the method and manner of
shoppers in looking for an auto
mobile. The prospect who dashes
up and down the row, gathering
armfulls of literature and earfulls of
chatter, crying to mind-file the good
and bad points of all the cars on
the market, is a common type. Not
so common is the prospect who first
fixes a price in his mind and then
demands lull value. But the first
type is often 'stung,' the second
type seldom.
"The secoud type generally has in
mind just this: 'How much can t
get in strength, comfort and looks,
