crasoline.
In connection with McNamara's per
fromance, a report comes from Seattle
that a Maxwell touring, car made the
run from Seattle to Tucoma on a gal
lon of insoline. A distance of 4:1
miles was registered and the car car
ried five adult passengers and two
children.
The Lake Tahoe Eun.
The Maxwell gained added glory by
breaking the trail to Lake Tahoe,
making the run three full weeks before
the earliest arrival of any previous
season.
This performance is nil the more re
markable in that the snowfall in the
Sierra Nevada mountains during the
past winter was the heaviest since
18S). The Maxwell made the trip to
California's most fnmous mountain
lake without any aid save that furn
ished by its own engine and its hardy
crew of four men.
In maiiv places the snow was piled
fifteen feet deep, lint the car came
through without being buried once.
The success of the venture was due
in large part to the ability of the car
to ride the heavy drifts iustead of
breaking through them, as was the
ease with heavier curs in past seasons.
More Economy Tests.
Mr. McNamara's latest economy test,
was observed by representatives of the
Lincoln Highway Association and the
San Diego Fair, while the automobile
editor of the Oakland, California Tri
bune inspected the speedometer gears,
tho carburetor, etc.
said: - ,
Speaking of the economy tret, at
Seattle, one of the newspapers there
"Seattle has been the scene of uum
ernus economy trials, which have
aroused much interest among motor en
thusiasts, but a new chapter was
recorded when a 191 model .Maxwell
touring car, carrying five adults and
two children, traveled from eattbj to
Tacoma on a gallon of gasoline. That
the performance was not an accident
was demonstrated when the feat was
lepeated on the return trip. The dis
tance from the Seattle Automobile
Company's building in Seattle to. the
Logan Oarage in Tacoma is t.v tl;irc'
miles, which gives the Maxwe 1 a
record for phenomenal gasol.ne
economy."

A new hat box for men is narrow
enough to be strapped on the running
board. In it there is room for six hats,
including the top and crush hats. Flit
hat brushes slip into straps in the cov

white hemstitched chiffon, having a
shadow net mask over the face. The
net is white with black spider webs
upon it. There is a revival of tho

Equals $5000 Cars in Finish and Durability.
WHILE the occasional buyer delves deeply into technical talk, the I
average motorist consults first, Appearance, second,. Performance. I
"What will this car do?" is by far the most pertinent question placed
bv the maioritv of show visitors.
A ride in a Chalmers Six-30 will convince you beyond a shadow of a t
doubt that this Chalmers Six is thejast word in power, getaway and t
economy of operation. From five to twenty-five miles per hour in less than ten I
seconds' time is the daily record of the Six-30 in the hands of owners. The car can
be throttled down to four miles an hour in traffic and has an instant getaway at X
traffic crossings. No Chalmers Six ever, built has exceeded this Chalmers in flex-
ih tv.
An economical car, it averages 16 to 19 miles per gallon of gasoline on straight- ;:
ways and from 14 to 17 miles per gallon on hills and in rough going. With gasoline ; ;
prices on the upward trend, no longer does the prospective motorist disregard
t economy features of his new car. You will find in this newest Chalmers, a six- j
cylinder car more saving of fuel than the best four-cylinder car you ever drove, l
See this car on demonstration, let us take you for a drive.

some time ago that lie would appoint
tho man who received tho republican
nomination for commissioner from the
Kastern Oregon district in Mr. Aitchi-

Hecause of the necessity of curtailing
expenses of the Commission, no one

i appropriated $80,000 for maintaining
the commission miring mo uiruumi
period, cutting off $20,000 from the
amount requested by the commission,
I'p to the present time the commission
has used $S4,1!13,07 of its appropria

maintain it until tho legislature moots

MOTORCYLE NOTES
Corporal Charles Gaisser, Co. F, 28th
infantry, saved the American outpost
at Bnrredo, Texas, six miles south of
San Benito, when it was attacked at 2
o'clock in the morning by Villa band
its. Lacking telephone counevtions, the
outpost obtained reinforcements
through a wild ride by Corp. Gaisser on
a Harley Davidson to San Bernito and
quick action with motor trucKs in
bringing up additional troops. The
bandits had planned to rob a south
bound passenger train according to tlte
information that has come through ed
spite the nrmy censorship.
"Realizing the importance that sec
onds piny in f irefighting the Harley
Davidson Motor company, in co-operation
with the Pyrene Manufacturing
company, has designed motorcycle ap
paratus' that fire officials have stated
will revolutionize fire fighting and put
real efficiency into firo protection,"
say Scott and Piper, local representa
tives of the Hurley.
"High speed, low maintenance cost,
quick get away ami snmll floor space
give the new motor apparatus decided
advantages over any other class of ap
paratus in the engine house.
"It is declared by fire prevention
experts that 'seconds nre as important
as centuries when fire breaks loose.'
A bucket of wnter would hnve prevent
ed the Chicago fire. Salem, Mass.,
was nearly destroyed in n day. During
the week of March 20, fires that burn
ed over a considerable area of Augusta,
Ua., Paris, Texas, and Nashville, Tenn.,
caused an estimated property loss in
those three cities of $10,000,000."

Gompers Begins National
Campaign for Better
State Labor Laws
Washington, May 27. oanincl Gom
pers, president of the American Feder
ation of Labor, is'on his way to Chica
go today to inaugurate a nation-wide
campaign tor legislation making state
1 ibor laws conform to the labor pro
visions of the Clayton anti-trust law.
The Clayton law now provides that
labor is not a "commodity nor nn ar
ticle of commerce." It effectually
prevents prosecution of labor men for
attempting, as they see fit, to try to'
get siorter hours or increased pay.
Gompers has prepared a model lull,
which he will try to b.we passed by
state legislatures.
Gompers will speak at' mass meet
ings of state labor men in four states
Illinois, Indiana, vjii'io and Michigan
He will speak at Chicago tomorrow, at
Fort Wayne deeontion day, at Colum
bus Wednesday (on May 31) and at
Detroit .lune 2. In a statement to the
United Press just before his departure
he said:
obtained amendments to the Clayton I T
act pointing out that labor is not a I
commodity nor irticle of commerce.
This frees labor from the applications
oi the provisions of the anti-trust laws
and from judicial interpretation of the
laws. Under this law a suit such as
that against the hitters of Danbury
will not be maintained. The rights of
workers to exercise their normal activ
ities for their own protection ami wel
fare have been mado lawful.
"The addition to the Clayton law
corrects the abuse of the injunctive
writ and Tirovidcs a jury trial in ny
case of alleged contempt where tlie;X
"contempt" was committed outside of
court.
"This, however, is a federal law,
and covers only federal courts. State
laws in many instances make organiza
tions of co-workers ameinble to prose
cution. The abuse of the writ of in
junction within the state still holds.;
"Largely the campaign will be car
ried On bv state federations. In Penn
sylvania, Georgia, West Virginia, Mich
igan, Wisconsin and (alirofnia, Jegis- j
latures have icted already to mnke the,
demand for this legislation paramount .
in their political activities.
"In Illinois. Indiana, Ohio, Aew
York, Oregon and Iowa active prepara
tion is being made to make the bill an
issue in the state ennpaign.
"The campaign will be inaugurated,
at Chicago tomorrow, (May 28) at a
statewide conference. Representatives!
of all state labor will be present.
"Besides the campaign in those.
states organizers will carry the fight to
other states particularly to Vtuh and
Colorado. ' '
