Congressman Raker's telegram to
The News .Monday afternoon was. re
ceived by the ill nunc miners with
mil. li satisfaction. Large delegations
from Sc.ilt Valley nn.l the Klamath
river section had gathered in the
court house to discuss the building
or improvement of roads leading to
the chronic deposits aloiut-thc Klam
ath and Scott Vivers. Jfr. linker's
telegram announced Unit the govern
ment would commence work on the
roods at once. Alter much discussion
the board appropriated .$10,1100 lo he
used in eo-opcration wilh the gov
ernment in providing outlets from Ihe
chrome deposits. It was provided
however, thattlio trucks should pay
the county four cents per mile for Hie
use of Hie roads to provide a fund for
upkeep. There will be in the neigh
borhood of 1(10 lieavv trucks hauling
the ore. and lhe necessary wear and
tear on Hie roadbed will be verv
heavy.
The Scot I river delegation argued
in favor of improving' tho canyon
road on the ground that t its a per
manent one and that t lie improve

For five years this Maxwell motor
car has remains J standard in practi
cally its present form.
That's four years longer than some
of its would-be rivals have stayed in
business.
And it is longer than any other com
parable model has endured. .
Of course wo have changed body
lines and other external details from
time to time, for the Maxwell clientele
fastidious as well as frugal.
Maxwell buyers demand style and
finish, and all thor,c other qualities
that make all tho difference to the
owner who would be proud of the
looks as vell as pleased with the
performance of his car.
But mechanically the changes in all
those years have been in refinements
of details only.
We have never had to apologize for
a single detail never found it neces
sary to chango any unit in the
original Maxwell
And you know, that had there been
a single weak link one detail that
was faulty in the slightest keen
competition would have forced a
change of such. -wrmsfsr.
When, after looking them all over,
you select a Maxwell motor car for
yours, you have the satisfaction of
knowing that rnoro than a quarter of
a million other careful buyers endorse
your judgment and your good taste.
Better decide while the present price
holds there's no telling, when it
may have to advance again.
