' M.r pm "niv MWUAY, MAY 13, 1918. ran They're Deadly Foes HotSp T T norn to Gas Waste-the Chalmers ot ana Kams- Manifold These are days when the sagacious person is cutting out all forms of waste in his shop and in his home. No doubt a condition that has sent thousands to see the new Chalmers with its two great devices that Hooverize gas. One of them is the now noted Hot Spot, which cracks up and heats up the raw gas into a cooked condition for wonderful power results. The other is the Ram's-Horn Manifold, which of the two is prob ably an even greater device. For it takes the gas vapor from the Hot Spot and carries it 14 inches equi-distant to each cylinder without sharp turns, angles or pockets where the vapor might lodge. So that at the moment of sparking, the gas is (like the charge in a large projectile) ready for 100$ results. There's so little that comes out of the exhaust in the form of ui burned gas as to be negligible. All the power goes into the crank-shaft and out of the rear vvhe-.!s. And such a soft, luring power that it casts a spell of intense satisfiu.tiw.11 the moment your foot touches the accelerator. ZLL-AfslS Absolutely Removes Indigestion.

It appeared unlikely tolay that President Wilsoa would permit himself to be drawn fur ther into the aircraft embrogtio by the latest opea letter of tiutzon Borglum involving Secretary of War Baker. It wag stated officially today that President Wilson would not reply te tho Borglmu letter and that if any notice whatever is taken of the miss ive, Secretary Baker will do it Baker was under fire today from Gutzon Borglum in the latter's efforts to clear himself of charges that he in tended to use his influence with Pres ident Wilson to further private air craft interests. In an open letter to President Wil son, Borglmu announced his intent to place new documentary evidence be lore the senate in an effort to cleanse himself of these claims. In his letter Borglum accused Secretary Baker of balking his efforts at aircraft prob ing. . "Never, I .believe, in the history of this country," Borglum wrote, "has a group of men been given so complete ly a nation's resources, together with tho administration's nd peoples' con tidemeo as have tho aircraft group and never have such confidences been mor wautontly abused. I refer here to Ma jor General Suqier, Howard K. Coffin, Colonel Deeds and Colonel Montgom ery they appear everywhere in the fine net work . of falsehood and camouflage and they include Mr. Ba ker as their partner in the common statements to the public; they delib erately lieU to. you and framed up their statements, particularly their fail ures, misleading staieauenits befoiei the senate military committee and they di rectly are responsible for no engines, no planes, no propellers and our van ishing appropriations." Senate probers, along with the jws ti'ce investigators, will continue tbfcir trail into the aircraft situation this week, , 4r The other old bench became worn out and useless by the end of 1917, and II it is now necessary to purchase and install a new bench to replace it at a cost of $6,200.00. - r To the Gas Customers of the Salem Gas Plant Gas Rate Talk No. 5 Withregard to the physical condition of our gas plant, three gas benches or generators have been "required for the last two years to supply the max imum demand for gas during the latter part of the summer and early fall. We installed the third bench in 1916 at a cost of $4,590.41 and replaced one of the old ones which had worn out in 1917 at a cost of 5,330.97. The financial condition of the company as a whole, has been impaired by greatly increased costs of material and labor in all of its departments, with- J out any corresponding increase in revenues, thereby preventing any reason able returns being made on the investment. ft ! The effect of these conditions upon the gas supply in Salem is that they form a big obstacle in the way of raising the necessary $6,200, which is need ed to purchase and instal1 an additional gas bench or generator which will be required this summer and fall to supply the demand for gas. We are therefore forced to apply to the-Public Service Commission for permission to increase our rates sufficiently to offset the increased costs of materials and labor and to justify the purchase of adequate facilities for manufacturing all gas required to supply the inhabitants of the City of Salem.

At the Parent-Teacher 's association hold on Tuesday ovening a very inter esting program was giran. The little, play "Chanticleer", was presented by nth and ,6th grade pupils under the able direction of Miss Parrot and Miss Eada baugh. Several spirited songs were ren dered by the High school double quar tette under the direction of Miss Morris. Prof. Oentle addressed the audience briefly, asking tho earnest co-operation of all the parents in urging tho child ren to do their best with the gardens and other war work, including cenomy. He and Miss Parrot caused a bit of laughter when they inon'ioned some of their special economies. Mr, Gentle nid he had decided to wear out his old clothes so he hunted up an old coat that had been laid nway for six years and was going to wear it until it was worn out. Miss Parrot said Bhe could beat tlinii as the dress she had on was made from two old ones that she had had for eight years and the fur she wore was made from a cout she had worn ton years ago.
