war. Herbert Hoover wants a mighty national organiz.it ion for the establishment of the greater roads system. W. G. JloAdoo believes good roads should stirplant the railroads to keep pace with America's development. Mr. Bryan says should celebrate peace by building memorials la permanent highways "Good rvads mean greatly lessened transportation osts," d.vlared Gov.

Hon. laniard Wood d;ited rural schools possible. With good bel.e ves that th good roads lesson is i roads lifo becomes easy and , agreeable

" - said W. ';. Me.Vdoo. "Our best i haii' e of immediate relief is in great ::stms of state highways, so laid cut i -ird constructed as to supply the auto1 mobile and motor truck the additional ; ti an.-portation facilities the country lra- , ptrativejy needs." "An adequate good roads system is the commercial liaison for the proper J co-ordination of the rfquiremcnts of the. ; producer, manufacturer, and consumer," ! v.i'l Gen. "Wood. "The need for such ; a system was strikingly demonstrated luring the war and is a.s great now as I it ever was. By providing something : which makes possible the development i of farms we perform a service of ln- ! estimable value to the entire country." I " Every possible facility must be pro- ; v ided to encourage producers of farm i i out mod i ties and merchandise to Increase production," declared Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, anti H. C. 1 leader. "The improvement and use of public , highways, in addi'ion to airways, raili w a s. and waterways, is vital to the ' progress and prosperity of the people." The time has come," "W. J. Bryan thinks, "for the systematic development i of national highways. The conclusion of ; peace gives an opportunity to celebrate ; the ending of the greatest world war ; by building a memorial peace way, reaching into every state and forming I a commercial bond between the ccramonwealths." "Good roads construction retarded by ' 'he war should now be poshed vigorously," declared Senator Miles Pcindei: i ter. "Nothing should be permitted to j interfere with the expansion and de1 vlopmrnt of these, important arteries of transportatierLi I favor an extcnsive system of national roads built by
j th Federal government and located
With a viw to military defense as well
j s. civic and commercial use. and ordinaled with existing highways "

; as essential to the iite of the nation

f thought of Gov. James M. Cox.. J "We hae had a great object lesson in the paved highways of California." j .-aid i-enator Hiram Johnson. "Thev

prosperity of everyone. The improvement of the highways of the nation will
l undoubtedly be of great economic value
' to the country as a whole. The good , roads movement meets with my warmest . approva S." i "Transportation has made every advance of civilization." is the belief of I Senator "W. G. Hard.ng. "There is no advanoement in production and exchange j until there are highways to facililale ' the transportation involved."

Wheels In Plenty. Hippolyte "W. Romanoff, a Russian Inventor residing in New York, hap been granted a patent on a sixleen-wheel vehi -. for which he claims more riding comfort and greater economy of tires than at rresent available in the fourw heeled vohi.-io. According to Motor World, the inventor plans four fourw hoelM trucks, one at, each corner of the car. each vrhwl turning on an independent spindle and four spindles supported by a linked parallelogram, so that
if one whel rises over an obstruction
all the wheels remain vertical. There
are no axles, as the term is generally construed, the body being supported by
I rackets having a pivot joint with hort

OVERALL CLUBS ARE SILLY FADS Forward the Shabby Genteel cohorts! Down with overalls '-wear your old elothes and let your patches be your badges of honor! Rallying around these battle cries, industrial legislators of the Senate and House of representatives of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company's Industrial assembly at Akron. Ohio, have voiced their disapproval of overall clubs

as a means of combating the high c-ost
of clothing. By almost unanimous vote In both houses they have ruled against such clubs among the 35,000 Goodyear employes and are throatenin; the blue jeans battalions with future disaster by advocating 1fce wearing of old clothing.
no matter how shabbv it may be
"Overall clubs are silly fads that will not last long," announce the industrial legislators. "They represent the height of folly and inconsistency. The idea Isn't practical. Taboo the overall clubs and stick to your old clothes. That's
the best way to bring down prices," And practically all Goodyearites are following their advice. They have stopped buying clothes, and are wearing old ones.

MEN of action refuse to be dependent upon slow moving, congested trolley cars. They realize that their time is worth money. And quite naturally they find the solution of this time problem in a dependable motor car the most efficient form of transportation that has ever been developed. A little reflection should convince
you that any man can do a better days work with a PAIGE. In the entire field of automobiles there is no car with a more firmly established reputation for dependability. Because the PAIGE performs its work un feilingly, it has been adopted by those men who are best equipped to judge the efficiency

The Men Who Make the Cadillac
The group of men who have made the Cadillac what it is today, have worked in silence and almost in obscurity for seventeen years deriving their greatest reward from the endorsement which their endeavors have won from the whole world. Their greatness has been manifested by the fact that they have been content to remain hidden from the public eye and combine their ability for the common good of the Cadillac. No one of them would dream of contending that the Cadillac is HIS creation he would feel ashamed to filch from his fellows the fruits of seventeen years of closest and friendliest co-ordination. They have had, all these years, a common aim, and a common standard, and all of them share and share alike in the pride and pleasure of making the Cadillac more worthy of the world's appreciation. The Cadillac has grown and developed in goodness, as a man's character grows and develops with the years, when he dedicates his life to honor and integrity, and declines to swerve from that high standard. When another group, equally gifted, have applied the same high principles over a long period of years; when those principles have fastened themselves like a hfe-Iong habit on the rank and file of a great organization then, and not till then, can there be another car remotely comparable to the Cadillac.
