It Is advisable, though, to get started as soon as possible and all persons contemplating entering their names should send In their nom ination blanks at once. You have never had an opportunity present ed to you as big and as easy to secure as you hare in this gener ous voting contest. We'll warrant that you never be fore had a chance to secure a lux urious automobile without the ex pendlture of one cent on your part But that is Just what we have of fered you in this contest. And your opportunity to win a car is still here. All that is neces sary is that you take advantage of it now. Go after one of these cars and go after it strong. Make up your mind that you are to win, and stop for nothing. 'If you are alive, wake up to the opportunity. Give a little spare time to this event. Come to the office and talk it over and you can win up to a $1343.00 automo bile in the next few weeks. The work Is not hard. You do not have to poreess a college edu cation to win one of these awards. What-It requires is constant plug ging, hammering away steadily for the next few days. , A Definite Object : Now that you have entered the contest, what are you going to dG to insure its being your prize con test? You have gone into it with a definite object in view to win one of the highest prizes. To do this, it Is not enough to enter your name as a cHndki.ito and then sit with folded hands waiting for your friends to sub scribe in your favor. That would be one of the longest waits you ever had. This contest is an opportunity for workers, it is an opportunity to get within a few weeks some thing that can usually be obtained only by months of patient toil. Have you found it altogether easy to save up to 11343.00 for some luxury that you wished? The persons who make the best use of their time between now and the end of the contest (Just a few short weeks) are the ones who will rejoice on March 20. Do you real ize that it Is but a short time away? Can't you see that there is no time for hesitation or delay? The person who hasn't a car this season must Jump right into the rontest today and hustle with the brightest and best of candidates. Candidates in The Statesman's big automobile contest, as well as some of those who have not yet entered the race, are busy with pencil and paper these days figur ing what it would take in subscrip tions to acquire the leadership for one of the grand prizes. Votes are the only things neces sary to win, and they can be got ten by the thousands, yes, by the ten thousands. On every subscrip tion turned in a certain number of votes is allowed, depending upon the size, or rather the length of the subscription. Therefore by the use of a little mathematics, it can easily be fig ured that a mere handful of sub scriptions at this tfhje, tiie result of a little effort among your friends, relatives and acquaintan ces, worild at once place you with the leaders of the race an in line tor prizes op -oT$r34SJK). Worth trjlnt say the ast don't you think? But don't wait start now! The beauty of this contest is that while you win big, you give value received for everything you sell. Many in Salem and many more outside are regular States man subscribers. They subscribe and pay for The Statesman be cause they want It, because they get value received. You are not begging, you are selling a product that should be In every home in this territory the newspaper. People who read are informed. Your Statesman is a home news paper, one which Is afe for all members of the family, to read. frage law more than 9.000.000 new voters will be eligible to cast their ballots and the authorities plan to observe the campaign with great care. Among the numerous verbotens which the candidates must observe Is one which pre vents them from, using bill board posters and advertising in the newspapers. I Public meetings 'and editorials in the newspapers are about the only way permitted for presenta tion of candidates. 6 FOOT LEGS MM THItKK YEA It EFFORT CLI MAXED WITH SUCCESS WASHINGTON, Jan. 23- (AP) n ; inumpn iinany nas crowned a three year effort of the bureau of standards to cast a six foot disc of optical glass. rour previous attempts to cre ate the disc as a first step toward the building of one of the largest reflecting astronomical telescopes ever undertaken were unsuccess ful because after months of la bor the three tons mass of mol ten glass failed to "cool without cracking or cooled with imperfec tions that ruined it.

(AP) Jap an will bold her first general election' under universal manhood suffrage on February 20 as a re sult of dissolution of the diet which was announced Saturday on reassembling of the diet after the new year's recces. ' The dissolution has been expec ted tor some time and the Tanaka ministry forestalled an actual vote on a motion of censure presented by the opposition by announcing dissolution immediately after presentation of a report by the finance minister.

(AP) T Polish peasant patriot, Michael Drzymala, stubborn fighter against efforts to "Germanize" western Poland in the pre-war Jays, has been granted a gift of 10,000 zloty. about $1200 by the eovernnient to purchase a farm. He was refused a permit by the Prussian government to build a house on his farm, this being gen erally regarded by the Poles as Germany's way of forcing Polish land ownen to sell to the Prus sian colonization commission commission which would then sell the land to German settlers. Drzy mala repeated his application sev er; times in vain. Finally, resolved to save hi? land by an expedient, Drzymala built a little house on wheels? Thus, he contended, it was a car and consequently did not come in confict with the building regula tions of the government. This "house on wheels" became fam ous throughout Poland as a sym bol of revolt against German dom ination and is now in the Cracow national museums as a patriotic relic. ASK LEE'S REMOVA L Longview, Wash., will do every thing possible to assist Astoria to land the proposed Columbia river bridge here if the eastern concern proposing the span "actually mean business," E. Z. Sailers, Long view paint manufacturer and pres ident of the chamber of commerce of that city, told Lee Merrick, chamber secretary here, today. Since the J, Pr Elliott and As sociates, Chicago, presented the city council here with a resolu tion asking rights-of-way in Clat sop county for the span which would cost $20,000,000 and eclipse the Longview-Rainier bridge, no word of approval or condemnation has been heard from the Washington city. Mr. Sailer's comment today set at rest considerable speculation on Longview's attitude. Although the Astoria city attorney has not officially reported his findings on the resolution, it is believed that the Elliott concern will meet no opposition should they conclus ively decide to span the Columbia here.

LtFHceJOe TO ' wttaponrc KIMBALL G VEN 1 FUNDS FOR ADDITION AL- FAC ULTY MEMBER PLEDGED POLICYHOLDERS OF RANKERS LIFE MAKE DEMAND Demand that Clare A. Lee, state insurance commissioner, be removed from office was received here Monday by Governor Patter son from the Oregon policyhold ers In the Bankers Life Insurance company of Des Moines. Iowa. The document was signed by Dan Kel laher, Portland attorney, and a number of the policyholders. The assessment policyholders sometime ago demanded that the company restore them tq the posi tion they were in from 1911 to 1917, which was prior to the time the assessments were increased When the company failed to. com ply wun ineir demands tne policy holders demanded that Mrjee cancel their permit to operate in the state of Oregon. Mr. Lee re fused to cancel the company's per mit pending the outcome of a case now pending against the insur ance corporation in the Iowa su preme court. The question raised by the Oregon assessment policy holders are involved in the Iowa litigation. "These rates have proved con fiscatory of the policies of one half the certificates of the old assessment members of Oregon and has destroyed the hope and faith of more than 2000 men," read the petition received at the executive department today, "that they were protected against the nightmare of old age, dependency, and confiscating more than S3,- 00,000 of insurance belonging to Oregon families." Recerds on file in the state in surance department show that the assessment policy holders in Ore gon number only 400. Legal re serve policyholders number 3.200. The latter policyholders are not affected by the issue. Neither Governor Patterson nor Mr. Lee would make any state ment regarding the demand of Mr. Kellaher and his associates. .
