The popularity of these camps

tin coiii'Mcs in citizenship which
are conducted at the camps.
; Thl CouKri'SH is rnvpruhy dis

can be seen by the following
statenient made by Congressman
Anthony on the floor of the House
of Representatives last year:
"I saw one of the civilian camps
and I will say to the House that I
leave of absence, generally ut full
pay.
Not only are these camp of
Krcat benefit to the youiitf men of
our nation, but (hey are ulso of de
cided benefit to the Army of the
I 'tilted Ktaies. Approximately Sf,u
Reserve officers will be used at

ant thoroughly convinced that tho
money we are spending under thin
head brings back nearer 1 no per

in the bill. I saw nearly 2,0nn raw
hos, most of them coming from
the lills of Arkansas, Missouri, and
the plains itf Kansas, who, when
they arrived at camp were typical
green and on If edged youngsters of
about Ut years of age, but uhso.
lutely nn unmlllttiry a lot of young

Soviet Mills Unable
To Supply Peasants'
Cotton Goods Needs
MOW 'OW ( A i ') The shortage
of roll on goods in Hussia never
has been felt so urutrly as t his
year. With the coming of the
summer Moscow textile shops arc
literully besieged by all classes of
the town population and numer
ous peasants, who come: great dis
tances to buy u few yards of gins
hum or cotton dress goods. Cor
cigners are much surprised by
the sight of long ieues of wom
en shuppers who stand patiently
all day long outside every stale
textile shop, obstructing traffic ami
necessitating the regulation of the
crowd by militiamen.
The high cost of woolens an I
silks compels e"n the better
class of people to resort to ordin
ary cotton fabrics for their dresses,
while, the peasantry us u .rule, nev
er was accustomed to. wear any
thing but cotton. Tho Soviet tex
tile demand for cotton, which
since the revolution has greatly
Increased, while production of cot
ton goods has decreased by near
ly lo per cent in comparison with
the pre-war time.
In 1113 the R-isslan factories
produced 2.7 5,000,0(10 meters of
cotton goods, which eojiulH 17 met
ers per head of population, while
the 'last year the total production
amounted only to Mio.non meters,
which ia only six meters for every
Inhabitant.
In order to meet the demand for;
cotton goods among the peasantry j
the govTlimejit was compelled t
last year to buy abroad 20.000,000
rubles' worth of ready cotton fab
rics. With the realization of the
coming harvest, which is expected
this year to be satisfactory, the
demand for cotton gooda by the
peasantry undoubtedly will In
crease. The government now Is
confronted with .the problem of
further increasing the import of
cotton goods, as the increase u
the production of the ItiiHsiun tex

7(ow-2l One-Profit Car
in the Quality Field
OTUDEBAKER has achieved one-profit manufacture in the
quality field. This marks a new era in the automobile industry.
Studebaker's achievement eliminates unnecessary profits running
up to $500 on a single car. It banishes double overhead. It results
in quantity production of quality cars. It vitally affects pricing by
establishing a new criterion of value in the fine car field.

"TWENTY-FIVE
' I 1 years ago practically
1, all "manufacturert
1) of automobile were
nothing more than assem
blers. They purchased mo
tors, bodies, tops, axles, etc.,
from parts makers who were
the manufacturers in reality.
On this basis it was easy
to become an automobile
"manufacturer," and more
than five hundred makes of
automobiles have hod their
day in the American market
and disappeared. They ore
represented only by "orphan
cars" with practically no re
sale value.
Notwithstanding this writ
Ingon the wall many manufac
turers still assemble their
product, piling profit upon
profit fortheullimatepurchasertopay. Each profit
which a maker pays to q body builder or porta sup
plier enters into his costs just as though he had
spent the money for steel or plate glass or uphol
stery. Although it represents no value he not only
paws it on to the purchaser but figures his own
profit on tup of it.
The Ford is a one-profit car and reigns supreme
in its field.
In the fine car field Studebaker and Stude
baker alone now offers the American public one
profit values.
During the past seven years, when demand ex
ceeded supply, Studebaker has been plowing earn
ings back into plants and machinery until we are
now able to make this announcement.
Foundries, stamping mills, machine shops, are
now complete. As final links in the chain of one
profit production, the enormous Studebaker body
plants have been operating for months at peak
capacity. Resources totaling one hundred million
dollars are concentrated on theproduction of this
cue-profit car.
No other individual manufacturer in the world
(except Ford) possesses such facilities for the com
plete manufacture of automobiles.
That is why Studebaker is atUe to put finer
at eel, finer wood, finer upholstery, better work
mansJup, hundreds of thousands of miles of re-
Why Studebaker is the
"one-profit" car
There are more than 60 makes of
pmscnger cart built in the United
Stutci, but very few are mamifac
turrd complete in the plant of the
producer who ell them.
Only 42 build nil their own motors
and one of the 4 J is Studebaker.
Of the 42 which claim to make
their own motors only 14 make tho
iron cuMinm, stamping and forn

Only 5 make all their own bodies

serve transportation, Into
every car yet keep down the
price to you.
This sound manufacturing
principle not only holds down
price, but it insures a better
car regardless of price. The
car is not a patchwork, but
a unit.
Last year at the New York
and Chicago automobile
shows four well-known auto
mobile manufacturers ex
hibited coaches mounted with
the same body a body made
from the identical dies, jigs
and fixtures. Certainly theae
manufacturers must have
sacrificed engineering advan
tages in chassis construction
to accommodate this "stand
ardized" coach body built by
an outside supplier.
Contrast this with Studebaker, where the entire
car is designed and built as a unit and engineered
complete. This construction means (1) longer life
(2) Rreater comfort in riding (3) greater freedom
from repair expense (4) greater resale value.
With the advent of this one-profit -one-overhead
plan of motor car manufacture, it is folly today to
buy n caV by the same comparisons you used
yesterday. Today you must measure all cars with
tlus "one-profit" Studebaker.
One-fourth of alt American passenger enrs built
today belong in the fine car field a total of 57
different makes selling above one thousand dollars. '
There are 21 Studebaker body styles available
on three different chassis. The Standard Six Models,
! 13-inch wheelbase, SO h.p. engine, $1125 to $1600 ,
f.o-b. factory. The Special Six Models, 120-inch
wheelbase, 65 h.p. engine, $1450 to $2120 f.o.b.
factory. And the Bis Six Models, 127-inch wheel
base, 75 h.p. engine, $1875 to $2650 f.o.b. factory.
And you may buy your Studebaker today with
the asurunce that it will not be arbitrarily stig
matixed by any act of ours as a "last year's model."
Instead of spectacular annual announcements of
"new yearly models," Studebaker has adopted the
policy ot keeping its cars up-to-date in body stylet
and chassis desit-n every day in the year. There
fore, buy your Studvbukvr now!

The Slick
buy
NEARLY every one of us has seen the checkered
suit person with the velvet tongue. How smoothly
he once told of the merits of this product or that
and raked in perfectly good coin for purchases
that were often worthless.
The "slick guy" is seldom seen today. When
the wise person goes to buy, he knows what is good
in value and fair in price.
Simply by glancing over the advertisements in
your paper, you can see where to go for the best
buys. You can compare values and check up prices
without even stirring from your easy chair. You
know in advance just what you are going to get
and how much it will cost. And you can have the
satisfaction that comes from knowing your money
is wisely and safely spent
Nowadays, no one need be at the mercy of the
"slick giry." There are stili a few people who fail
to read the advertisements and "take a chance."
Don't be one of them.
Advertised products are safe buys. They have made
good before they are announced.
