The Economical Quality Car Chevrolet prices are not the lowest on the market, yet Chevrolet economical transportation averages lowest in cost. This average cost considers the purchase price, interest on investment, depreciation and all operating and maintenance cpsta. A detailed comparison with any other car in the low priced field will convince you that Chevrolet is the best buy because of its superior quality and because the purchase price includes full equipment. More than a million Chevrolets are now in use. Twelve huge plants are now building them at the rate of twenty-five hundr d per working day. Nearly one-half million Chevrolets were bought in 1923 —far exceeding in number the sales of any other quality car. Thus, our statements have the strongest possible backing, namely, the fei:h and patronage of the - American people who know automobiles and know A practical values better than any other people on earth. Let any one of our seven thousand dealers show yon , our seven types of cars and explain how easy it is to get one and enjoy its use. * Prien f. o. b.

Practical Working Communism in the United States Within a Few Years • ' By W. R. BASSETT, in 'New York Herald. PRACTICAL working Comm fin ism will exist in the United State* within a very few years. Iri fact we have since 1890 covered-? more of the distance than still remains to go. This has hot only been accomplished without revolution, but it has come so gradually that only a few have realized that the evolution has been going op. By practical working Communism, I mean a state in which the fundamental desires of' Communists will be realized, without the. fantastic trimmings which the various lunatic fringes consider essential.-, There will be no Soviets, no dictatorship of the proletariat or of other social or economic class, no violent redistribution of property, no taking from the rich to give to the poor. But neither will there be abject poverty .side by side with superfluous abundance. We shall still operate under the capitalistic system, for that is the only system which correctly rewards and therefore stimulates ability, initiative and production. Scraping away the fungus growths of ideas that have grown around Communism we find that underneath is the entirely sound and healthy belief that all men are entitled to a large supply of necessary and luxury goods, and to a proper amount of leisure in which to enjoy those goods. That is the real purpose of Communism. While the numerous more or less the oretical advocates of this result are quibbling and squabbling over what means to employ, capitalism, urged somewhat by public opinion and aided by those who are experts in production and distribution, is achieving the desired condition in a practical way. , . <i Our farsighted industrialists not only watch public opinion and study the trends of thought among workmen—they often anticipate demands and meet them before they are made. The strikes that‘occur for higher wages, shorter hours or better conditions, appear to be more common than they are. Actually most of the concessions that workers have attained have cpme without strikes. They have come by mutual agreement. The welfare of workmen as exemplified in safety, in housing and in health safeguards have been voluntary acts of the employers. The lower production costs and the general trend over a hundred years, toward lower costs of production and prices have been the result of a scientific striving for greater profits. There is no repression in thia country, no undue use of the police to put down nor is there ignorance of what the workers wamt So long as that attitude exists, no revolution can occur. Earthworms Have a Memory and May Be Trained to Learn “Safety First” By PROF. L. HECK, in Daily Science News Bulletin. Earthworms were introduced into a passage shaped like a capital T and carved from a block of wood which was covered with a glass plate so that the movements of the little creatures might be observed. When they came to the junction about half of them turned one way and half the other. Then it was arranged so that those that took the left-hand passage received a mild, but presumably disagreeable electric shock: At first the worms did not know just what to make of all this, but after they had all “been through the experience about 200 times, they nearly all. were converted to “safety first” and took the right-hand turn. When the electrodes were then moved to the right-hand passage they learned to shift to the other after only 65 passages, evidently showing more aptitude. * In the human sense, earthworms have no brains; their nervous systems consist of a series of little ganglions, or nerve centers, on the underside of the worms and connected with’ each other by nerve fibers. If the worms were cut in two, the still showed the ability to distinguish between the safe and the unpleasant road to travel, showing that the earthworm remembers in every one of his ganglions, and is able to learn and profit by experience. “I Dislike Very Much the Sex-Conscious Bloc That Alice Paul—” By MRS. J. BORDEN HARRIMAN, in “From Pinafores to Politics." Women are still separate, not only biologically, which doesn’t count for so much in politics, but economically. They are the vast body.of houseworkers, sometimes sweated and sometimes petted. The American wife is supposed .to be a member of the great leisure class, and I suppose it is true that more American wives have more time to waste or to pursue culture tjian any other people in the world. I dislike very much the sex-conscious bloc that Alice Paul and her party huj&xorganized. Ido not think they can ever be powerful enough on their own to accomplish anything, and I do think they atir up so much antagonism in the men that it ia very difficult for the rest of us to peacefully negotiate the we want. A good many women whose opinion,l value enormously, among them Ruth McCormick, thought at the beginning that the League of Women Voters was an unwise precedent, perhaps encouraging women to organize on sex rather than along the old party lines. I, on the contrary, sees that Mrs. Maud Wood Park has done a great work by giving women a preparatory school in which to learn technique for making themaelyes felt when they join the parties. The league has an immense value aa a nonpartisan organization, or as some people call it, “all-partisan.” * > Sale of a Hundred Acres of Corn to Equal Income of New York Bricklayer * By R. L. HOLMAN, in No’d.h American Review, 1 • ■ It wburd*Take all the yearly income from a 200-aere wheat farm, taking average acre production and present quotations on wheat as a basis, to equal the annual income of a plumber in New York city, allowing him only 250 workdays and 115 days of idle time between jobs. On this basts of computation it would take the proceeds from the sale of a hundred acres of corn to equal the annual -income of a New York bricklayer. > A farmer'jwho derived his income from growing oats would have to sell the annuaf product from a 300-acre farm before he could, get enough money in hand to equal the income of a paperhanger in ona of oar larger cities. ,1 It would require the annual proceeds from the average acre production of a IW-aere cutton farm to reach the yearly remuneration enjoyed bv a skilled mechanic in a number of our industries, i The incomes of the various classes of city workers mentioned are all 1 net, while that of the fanner is gross. Out of it be must pay for labor, machinery, taxes, insurance, depreciation, interest on the capital invested, etc. ■ - - Melvin R.
