DENVER, Feb. 21. A sfsn "no 11

mit window In the county clerk's of
fice today cuused a score of appli

Is down with the, 'flu.'"

patrol
Plane n.v at Night.
H is charSOd that these Ianes op
erate at niKht and t hat from one to
two round trips between Portland and
the wet portion of V'anada are made
eah week. Pecause of the larse am
bunt of contraband that can be car- 1
ried in an ordinary army plane and '
the "prof iteerlnK" prices demanded in '
the Oregon markets, it is Raid the i
owners can ply their illicit trade at
a handsome profit after figurhm the
interest on their investment and costs
Of operation.
Only recently, according- to Infor
mal ion received hero, a large craft,

I ! In tied to elude suspicion. was seen
flying over Portland at nlKht. On the
following day the officers reported !
' that Ibpior was more plentiful there
I than for some time In the past.
Want Two liass.
Promoters of the aerial patrol de
clare that at least two bases should be t
established In Oregon, one near the i
ctty of Portland to guard the northern
boundary Of the state, and another at j
Ash'nnd to patrol the California line. ,
It lit also arKued that the work of j
these planes would not have to be con
I fined strictly to ferreting out liquor j
law violator but could be utilized In ,
olMUring escaped criminals and other j
( v lasses of law breakers.
It Is believed that the patrol sys- ;
, tern could be put In operation for j
about $50,000 nnd that the annual
.maltitetiani n cost would not exceed
ithat figure.

According1 to Mr. Hrown's opinion,

U th'tt motor vehicles in the hands of
dual era would be assessable March 1
by the countv assessor but prior to the

ber following, they would have become
exempt from taxation by- reason of
their individual registration and their

depending upon its own facts.
The nuestion of assessing motor cars
In the hands of dealers was raised h
November by M. O. AVilkins, president
and managed of the Dealers Motor Car
Association of Multnomah county. He

The legal opinion Indicates that

Owners Praise It
For Its Comfort
The delightful comfort with which five adult persons ride in the Cleveland
Six touring car has appealed to buyers everywhere. The wide, soft-cushion
seats, upholstered in grenuine hand-buffed plaited leather, are cozy as cozy can
be. And the low underslung spring construction, a feature of the Cleveland
Six chassis, subdues the road shock long before it can reach the cushions.
Many unusual qualities such as these are
fast winning friends for the Cleveland Six.
Among light weight sixes it stands out dis
tinctly. At all the principal automobile shows this
season it has attracted extraordinary crowds.
Men of mechanical interests and men ex
perienced in the use of motor cars have been
generous in their expression of approval and
admiration for the entire design and con
striction of the Cleveland Six chassis. The
several beautiful styles of body, mounted on
this one chassis, have met with praise from
men and women alike.
When you see or drive
the Cleveland Six, you want it.
