THE 'DAILY CAPITAL JOT RNAL. SALEM. OREGON. SATURDAY, MAR. 25, 191 fi. Facts GET the facts on the operating cost before you buy any automobile. Find out the truth before not after. And don't be satisfied with hear say or a salesman's claims. The price of gasoline is high; so is oil and there is sure to be an increase in the cost of all tires. So, what you want is the car that will give you most miles per gallon of gasoline, per gallon of oil and per set of tires. Here are the facts proved by the Max well stock touring car that recently set the World's Motor Non-Stop Record: Maxwell World' Non-Stop Record Fact Miles without a motor stop 22,023 Average -miles per day (44 days) 500.6 Miles per gallon of ganolin:. 21.88 Mile3 per gallon of oil 400 Average miles per tire 9,871 Remember that this was a Non-Stop Endurance Record in order to prove that the Maxwell car was exceedingly sturdy, reliable and trouble proof. No attempt was made or could be made to save gasoline, oil or tires. So these fig ures merely indicate what would be possible under ordinary driving conditions. Right now we have a Maxwell we can ieliver to you, and if you don't want to ?ay cash, make a deposit and pay the Dalance as you use the car. But don't put it off. We know the Maxwell factory can't jet half enough freight cars to carry their loubled output. Later on we may not e able to supply you. But we can JOW. Better phone us for a demonstra ion today.

Detroit's Canadian annex, consisting of the towns of Windsor, Ford, Wnlk crville and Sandwich, Out., is attaining considerable prominence as a motor niul accessory manufacturing center. When the British government, a few months ago, placed a duty of HH 1-H per cent on American cars the Automobile mak ers of Knglnnd rejoiced in the belief that a temporary, if not a permanent, check had been placed upon the dread ed invasion of the Yankee car. Amer ican mtiiufacttirors did not resent this seemingly hostile legislation in the least. They, on the contrary, took u friendly view of the British predica ment and assumed that tho government needed the money quite as much as the American industry needed the trade. I'Vw Americnn tankers Attempted to force the volume of their business with (Ireat Britain under the new conditions, rather preferring to rest quietly con tent with such orders ns they might re ceive from their audits in consequence of the natural demand Tor American cars in spite of the new tariff. Left Hole in Fence. It has developed, however, that their lordships of the British parliament left, either in their hurry nnd press of more important al'fairs or because of their lack of knowledge of the topography of the t'nitcd States, a fine opening by which the resourceful Yankee has slip ped through the new tariff fence and is now building American cars, with his own c.ipital and brains upon Britis'.i soil - to be more .iccunito. just across Hie I'ctroit river. Literally without moving front the of fices of their factories in Detroit, sev eral American car manufacturers can now look out upon the smoke curling from their ('aii'ldinii plants. It is slid, in fact, that mure than a score of Am erican cms, parts and accessory niaiiii lacturcrs h.ive factories running on full time in the little (.'iinadiau towns that have been inciil ioncd. and that other makers are planning to take iidvnntiige of this ine.tns of avoiding the new llritish tariff.

Governor of Wyoming Likes Convicts on Roads Governor Kendrick, of Wyoming, U an advocate of convict road work as aa economical success and beneficial to the convicts. Wyoming convicts were emptoyea on tue roads during the summer, of 1914. Wardea Alston reports during that period they built roads in six: counties nnd that the councils expressed their satisfaction by applying for more convicts for ti next year. The warden further re ports they did as good work as a hired crew from the outside. The state is responsible, Governor Kendrick holds, for keening its con victs healthy in mind and body. After careful investigation of the road work ho believes it is conuuetve to the in terest of state and prisoners nnd urges its further development. Gov ernor and Mrs. Kendrick are' taking great interest in the question or prison reform. Mrs. Kendrick is act ing a3 Wyoming representative of the jail committee of the national com mittee on prisons and has already se cured excellent reports on a number of the Wyoming jails. The commit tee is basing constructive suggestions on these reports and hopes that def inite improvement will result from Mrs. Kendrick 's activity. On Yellowstone Highway. The effort of the governor to pro mote convict road work will hnve the enthusiastic support of tho Yellow stone Highway association. This as sociation has assumed responsibility for placing and keeping in good con dition for automobile travel the road from Cheyenne to the Yellowstone park, and all roads entering the Yel lowstone park through Wyoming. The chairman has written the nation al committee on prisons for sugges tions as to methods of developing con vict road work and he has been re ferred to the work in Iowa, West Vir ginia and Ohio as possible of adapta tion to Wyoming. The keen interest shown in so many quarters in the road project is assuring to those interested in the welfare of the Wyoming convicts anr1 the summer of I'.tlG should see in creased numbers at work on the roads of the state. . Will Teach Motorists Care of Finish of Car By a nation-wide campaign a cam paign in which all other manufacturers are welcome to join the Maxwell Mo tor company, of Detroit, aims to edu cate motorists to the fact that it is within their power to prolong for years the original glossy finish which their cars bear at the time of purchase. In furthering this campaign the Max well company is enlisting the help of its own army o'f distributors and salesmen. It has also shown its own good fait li in the matter by adding to the standard equipment of each of its cars a can of automobile polish, of a brand tested and approved by competitive trial in its own plants. Polish Necessary. "An automobile is finished with greater care than most pianos," de clares President Walter K. Flanders, of the Maxwell company "Yet, it is free ly exposed to the weather of all sea sons. Often it is allowed to stand for weeks without washing. Especially in the case of popular-priced cars, it is possible that the ow-.-r utterly fails to recognize the need of an occasional use of automobile polish as a finish preser vative. "No combination of paint nnd varn ish, no matter how well laid on or how carefully hand-rubbed can survive rough treatment indefinitely, without losing its elasticity nnd luster. A good polish is essential, especially in seasons of extreme temperatures. "We hope that our plan of starting each Maxwell buyer with a supply of polish will demonstrate the value of this important, factor in the care of his car. Our interests are mutual. A small amount of time, spent In polishing the car will greatly increase the wner's satisfaction and will retain fhe value of his car. The good looks of the car will reflect credit on its finish and wil; help us and our dealers." Dealors Co-operate. In furtherance of the "Kecyyour-motor-car-looking like-new " idoii," the Maxwell forces have featured it nt all recent sales conferences. Dealers are requested to make especial efforts nt in structing owners o'f cars. It is urged that, with the present degree of me chanical perfection, it is no longer necessary to devote special attention to teaching owners problems of operation, and that they are therefore in better position than ever to learn how to cure for finish and appearance. Nearly Forty Acres In. Great Reo Factory "We had a laugh at the expense of our publicity man the other day," sail K, C. Rueschaw, sales manager of the Reo Motor Car company, "and hir chagrin was pitiful to see when we told him that, instead of over-stating, in ac cordance with the traditions of hi craft, he had been grossly under-stating one important -fact in connection with Keo. - "In reading over some recent Reo ads I noticed that the publicity man had changed his tune to some extent from last year, and was now saying. "the big 30 aore Reo factories" instead of the "25 acre plants" about which he talked a year ogo. "Of course I knew that hundreds C workmen had been busy during the past 12 months making additions on all side? of the Reo 'factories, but I wondered whether he had the facts straight or might be -stretching it a bit. "Not that it matters particularly to a publicity man, but we sales managers have to be more fastidious about these matters. "I took the matter up with our su perintendent of construction and was somewhat surprised myself at what J found out. "I not only found that his "DO acre plant" statement was justified, bu that he was grossly libeling the Reo company and not keeping up with the growth of the concern. "After we had figured out tin amount of space, by the various mew additions to the Reo automobile and thr Reo Motor Truck plants, we found to our amazement that they now cover very nearly 40 acres to be absolutely exact, 39.23 acres. "While it is really 12 years, it seems only yesterday that the entire Reo fac tory was encompassed in one three-story building, 60 feet wide by 250 feet long. "Of course I noticed that of late l'i feel considerably more 'fatigued after a walk through the plant, even though I have never covered all the departments in any one tour. I attributed that to coming of old age, however, instead of to the real reason. I felt better and younger after our architect had figured out for .me that to traverse every aisle in every department of the Reo factor ies would mean a walk of nearly lfj miles. "Now I realize why we Reo fc' have so little need for golf. A waJI through the Keo factories is equal t more than two lS-hole games and to tell you the truth, I have found it con siderably more exciting." Independence Woman Wins Suit In Court (Capital Journal Special Service.') Dallas, Ore, Mar. 25. The oiiit brought by V. S. Kstes, of IV. t'.ainl, against Mrs. Jennie L.

Leading New York Suffragette Praises Saxon Miss Alice Snitzer Burke Has Highest Regard For Both the Saxon Car and Company "I not only wish I could shout this 'from the housetops' but I wish I could roll it through the streets, the courtesy of the Saxon Motor Car Company. This was our suffrage year in New York and I decided that an automobile in which to tour the state was an absolute neces sity. One' day I read your advertise ment in the 'New York Tribune' and immediately went down to your New York Branch and laid my case before them. They met me on a good business proposition, well within my means so I ordered a Saxon ' Pour' finished in brilliant yellow. In a few days, exact ly as promised, the car was delivered and at the same time promised to give me service, at any time. Now 1 can truthfully say they have been 'True' to their word at all times. If you have ever had any dealings with a Suffragist you know she can always ask for things, because that is the only method sno has of ever getting any thing. Well, I am an ardent suffragist, so 1 have not failed to ask and there has never been a time when the Saxon Company has been too busy to run my car into the service station at a niohent's notice and put it ni good condition for a long trip in the counry. They have yet to toll me that T will have to wait until to-morrow, doubtless they under stand that delays, especially to suffra gists, are really disastrous. "Time and again I have asked for both large and small cars to put in our parades and my requestg have al ways been granted promptly and driv ers furnished with the cars. In our last great parade they furnished! me six Saxon 'Sixes' which enabled mo to take care of twenty-four women who otherwise could not have gone. The Saxon organization has not only helper! me, but they have always treat ed all women owners with the same big brotherly interest that I have always found in their buildings and on tho road. It is because of their untiring1 efforts to give satisfaction that there are many suffrage Saxoncttes through out the country. "If I go into a store or salesroom once and theyNarc indifferent if they do not meet me on afooting of equal ity, I do not go back to that store if I can help it. I found what I wanted and more than I expected when I be gan dealing with tho Saxon Motor Car Company of New York." ALICE SNITZER BURKB.

Amorlcan Manufacturers Xre Study ing Efficiency Methods Methods of industriiil efficiency such as habitually are described to German establishments actually prevail in the autmnohilo industry of the I'nited Slates to a greater extent than is ordi narily understood.
