day. leaving tihe city almost without
this class of vehicle. It was a typical
spring day and a drizzling rain fell.
Taxicabs were at a premium and private
cars had almost entirely disappeared.
Only one third of the customary l um
ber of machines was available.
It was a frequent occurrence two
or three or more would-be natrons of a
taxieab to be seen lined up before a
chauffeur bidding his services or wait
ing patiently at a stand for a taxieab
to ei nie along. The antique ho'se
drawa cjjb once more was .supreme.

| EDITOR MARKS A PROTEST
Says Governmental Probes Place News
papers Under Sort of Duress
By Associated Press.
Washington, March 16.—Vigorous
protest against the tendency of gov
! elemental investigations to place the
newspapers of the country under a sort
• of duress, was made by Charles R.
.Wilier, editor-in-chief of the New York
, "Times," before the Senate Ship Lob
j by Investigating committee. Chairman
! AValsh had questioned Mr. Miller at
lewgth its to editorials and news stories
in his paper, bearing 011 the ship bill,
trust prosecutions and railway mail
pay. At the conclusion of his exam
ination Mr. Miller questioned the au
| thority of the committee to inquire
as to many of the matters discussed
; and said:
"I can see no ethical, moral or legal
| right in this committee to ask me
many of the questions vou have put to
j me. It seems to me it would be right
j for you to inquire whether I know of
\ any ihiproper activities in connectioui
with the ship purchase bill. I have told
you I know of none. There, it seems
to me, the matter should have ended."
KILLED MEDICINE MAN
Indian Confesses P.evenge for Bleeding
His Two Children to Death
Fresno, Cal., March 16.—Charlie
Davis, a Digger Indian under arrest
here, confesse-l 1 , the police said yester
j day, to having killed Dr. Jack, aged
: medicine man of the tribe, in Squaw
j Valley on February 8 of last year, to
avenge the death of _his two children,
whoahad been subjected to bleeding by
the medicine man, "to drive aiway evil
spirits.'' The arteries of the children's
faces were opened with pieces of glass, l
, it is said, and' they quickly bled to i
I death. ' I
Another reason that prompted the l
j killing, Davis said, was to prevent the \
; medicine man from taking the lives of
his remaining child, his wife and of
himself, all of whom were subject, he
asserted, to the doctor's will.

by his slightest touch can make each

The unit orchestra will be operated
during the presentation of pictures by
Profewors Mallat and Johnson. Each
action of the picture will be acconir

MOTOR TRUCKFIRM OPENS
International Company Starts Business
at fll» Walnut Street—Have 75
Years Manufacturing Experience
The constantly increasing; demand
for motor trucks of light and medium
capacity has necessitated the estab
lishment of a new department, hereaft
er to be known as the International
Motor Truck Department now located
in their new and well equipped quar
ters at 619 Walnut street.
The International motor truck is
backed by a manufacturing experience
of more than seventy-five years, and
hundreds of service stations are main
tained for the protection of its pa
trons.
This Har?i»burg branch stands for
service and square dealing, as evidenc
ed by their constantly increasing
trade. The expressions of satisfied cus
tomers and repeat orders make this In
ternational motor truck department a
pleasure to its owners and employes.
To the modern business man this motor
truck is as indispensable as the tele
phone and daily papers.
Making comparisons between the
motor truck and the horse, we are in
clined to place motor truck transporta
tion in direct competition with horse
transportation, totally ignoring the
motor truck's superior flexibility, its
business building possibilities and its
utility in ways for which the horse is
entirely unfitted. When considered in
this broader scope and the motor truck
is given full credit for all its advan
tages, the comparison takes on the
same aspect as the comparison between
the efficiency of a horse car and a
modern trolley car; in other words, the
motor truck belongs to a new era. It is
the result of the demamds of modern
business for a better, faster an<i more
etlicient means of transportation.
The business man cannot afford to
overlook the business-building possibil
ities and the economies that an Inter
national motoi' truck presents.—Adv."
