British Submarine Located in Water too Deep for Divers, Is Official Report By International New* Service IXJNDON, Nov. 13.—The British submersible Minotor, M-l, lost in ths English Channel yesterday was located by rescue ships today, but in such deep wat“‘ that divers can not •go down to her and salvage officers state that it will be practi cally impossible to raise the vessel to ths surface. Sixty-nine officers and men aboard the submersible met a tragic death by drowning. Some naval men here believe that when the M-l dived yesterday she struck a sub merged mine. Another theory which has been advanced is that the M-l dove into a submerged wreck and sprung her plates, causing the ship to flood. A sunken German submarine may haye caused the tragic loss of the M-T, others said, for they pointed out that several German submarines were sunk off the Devonshire coast during the war and the M-l may have run afoul one of these wrecks. Salvage ships are reported still standing by, but with deep water and unfavorable weather there is only the barest hope that the M-l will ever be rasied to the surface.

DEFINITE DEASON dW GIVEN Miss Bessie McKeldin Changes Her Mind—Wedding Was to Hava Been in December Miss Bessie McKeldin, daughter of Mrs. Leigh Palmer, has broken her engagement to wed Colonel Henry Breckinridge, of NW York and Washington. This bit of news was brought to Washington by Miss McKeldin on her arrival in town yesterday with her mother, who had gone to New York to meet her upon Miss McKeldin’s return from Europe Tuesday. When her friends here greeted her with ex cited exclamations concerning her approaching wedding, they were given a shock by the bride-to have-been in the announcement that “the wedding is all off.* And this Miss McKeldin held to be true despite the fact that the trousseau ancr other wedding preparations were nearly completed.

2 MISS McKELDIN DECIDES SHE SIMPLY WON'T WED BRECKINRIDGE TROUSSEAU NEARLY READY (Continued from First Page) tor December 10. Miss Bessie Me- Keldin would have preferred her birthday anniversary. December 30, but, the report is, Mrs. Palmer did •ot approve of that date. Several pre-wedding social func tions had been planned for Miss McKeldin, but the would-be hosts are busy today cancelling these en gagements, or arranging them "in compliment", to others, who are on their lists to be feted. Just why there will be no wed ding of this popular debutante of two seasons ago and the popular former Assistant Secretary of War is generally attributed to the old, old story of a "woman’s preroga tive." Has Changed Her Mind In short. Miss McKeldin has changed her mind—changed it so completely that she can look with her accustomed Mona Lisa expres aion on an unused wedding gown that cost rather close to a thousand dollar. Mrs. Palmer is qqmewhat Mona Lisa. too. in her attitude toward the "break." All she will say is that she wishes "nothing would be Mid abodt it at present.” The re port has been current for some time that Mrs. Palmer did not favor this intention of her daughter to marry Colonel Breckinridge, al though the Palmer family and Col onel Breckinridge haVe long been excellent friends. It may be that her objection was due only to the difference in the ages of her daughter and her former fiance. That difference has made most of Miss McKeldin’s close friends shake their heads. And low that the engagement is off, these same friends are agreeing that ft probably is better thus. Man of Charm. A few, however, have felt' that the marriage promised continued happiness, in that Miss McKeldin, while very youthful, has neverthe less an unusually mature mind for her age. She has traveled extensive ly and seen much of the world. Thon again. Colonel Breckinridge is "not so old”—somewhere in the latter forties—and is a keen, ath letic type of man with much per sonal charm. The announcement of Hhe en gagement was made early last month by Mrs. Palmer while Miss McKeldin was still in Europe, where she spent the summer. It is reported that Miss McKeldin in sisted upon having the engagement announced, although her mother did not whole-heartedly support it. But Miss Bessie would not consent to return from Europe until it was announced.

C., DECLARES MITCHELL WITNESS (Continued from First Page.) upon newspaper men and spectators at the Mitchell trial today. On orders from Major General Robert L. Howze, president of the court, officers with swords and sol diers with side arms went through the crowd, warning against all out bursts. “No laughing, no smiling, no ap plause," was the edict. “This is no vaudeville show.” May Call Mrs. Steele As a result of the court’s ruling. It was learned that Mrs. George W. Steele, wife of the commander at Lakehurst, N. J., and Captain Foley would be summoned as witnesses. Mrs. Lansdowne in her testimony said Captain Foley atempted to in fluence her testimony before the Shenandoah board by preparing a “false" statement for her. The state ment was delivered to her, she said, by Mrs. Steele. The motion for ruling out the testimony of Mrs. Lansdowne, made by Colonel Sherman Moreland, trial judge advocate, was overruled first by Colonel Blanton Winship, 4a w member of the court. His decision w&F objected to by Major General Benjamin A. Poore, and the court retired, only to return and uphold Winship’s opinion. In offering his motion, Moreland declared: t "Her testimony is incompetent, im material and irrelevant.” said More land. “I do not believe the testi mony of Mrs. Lansdowne should be left in the record.” Proves Charge, Reid Says Congressman Frank R. Reid (Rep.) of Illinois, chief of Mitchell’s counsel, defended hir testimony. He declared the flying colonel was on trial for predicting “the Navy Department will attempt 'to white wash the Shenandoah disaster." "Now the accused has proven the truth of his prediction,” Reid added. “It is a violation of every right and justice to try to keep this tes timony out of the record." Reid charged the Shenandoah board "has failed to bring In a vr diet even though the time for a verdict has long gone past." This delay, he cited, was additional proof es Mitchell’s charges. Calls'" Drum Wrong J. Edward Cassidy, gas expert, and a colonel in the gas warfare reserves, was the first witness. He flatly contradicted testimony given the House Military Affairs Com mittee by Major General Hugh A. Drum, assistant chief of staff, on gas warfare. "Listen to this,” Reid told the witness, "General Drum told the House Committee that to effective ly gas an area of sixty square miles, equal to the District- of Co lumbia. it would take 3,439,850 pounds of mustard gas or 9,.573,- 850 pounds of mustard gas to cause evacuation. It that cor rect?" "It is absolutely incorrect," said Cassidy. "General Drum also said it would take 2,000 planes or 5.000 planes, each carrying a 2.000-pound gas bomb to effectively gas the District of Columbia or to force its evacua tion,” Reid added. "Is that true?" ‘Absolutely not.” Quoted Text Book On cross examination, Moreland failed to shake Cassidy’s testi mony. It was brought out that General Drum, however, had based his testimony on a statement contained in a gae warfare text book, ap proved by the chemical warfare section, which said 185 pounds of mustard gas were necessary to ef fectively gas an area of 100 meters square and 515 pounds to force its evacuation. "If General Drum based his testi mony upon that text would he be correct?” "No. sir, he was wrong.” Testimony stowing high military officers used the "lives of aviators as pawns” will be presented by Colonel William Mitchell before his jury of generals, It was learned to day, to suoerantiate his charges that the War and Navy depart ments were guilty of an “almost treasonable” administration of avia tion. The Mitchell defense will link to this evidence some earlier testimony charging the army with disregard ing a foreign air base in Central America which menaces the Pan ama Canal, and the. Navy with ig noring recommendations for the im provement of America’s defenses in ♦he Pacific. Upon these points, the Mitchell defense will depend for an acquittal on charges of "unsoldierly conduct.” DEBTPIGTTBBE APPROVED BY CONGRESS (Continued from First Page.) nation, is due for some Congres sional bombardment when pre sented for ratification, but the preponderant opinion in and out of Congress today was that it will be overwhelmingly approved. Taxpayers' Loss Heavy There will be some speeches made on American generosity, and some sympathy extended the American taxpayer by those who will point out the Italian settlement repre sents a net loss of around $75,000,000 a year, but in the end there will be plenty of votes for ratification. The net loss to the taxpayer is incurred through the difference in interest rates on the money in volved in the debt. Italy will pay an average of of 1 per cent. The Treasury is paying an aver age of 4*4 per cent to holders of liberty bonds. In arriving at the settlement, both sides made substantial conces sions. While it is true that the terms are considerably lower* thar the American negotiators had ex pected to grant, it is also true that the terms are considerably higher than the Italian negotiators thought at first they could meet. Smoot Convinced The accord was reached by Count Volpi laying his economic cards frankly on the table and in viting a most thorough inspection of them by the American con ferees. Ten days of inspection con vinced even Senator Smoot (Rep.i of Utab. that Italy’s capacity to pay is considerably less than that of other European debtors.

The Italian terms are consider ably more lenient than anything offered France, and Administration officials expressed no doubt today but that the French will lay claim to similar liberality when the ne gotiations are resumed.

The Administration feels thrt France is eminently able to pay her debt on the terms proposed to M. Caillaux in October, and re jected by him. It is an illuminating commentary on the negotiations that the Amer ican experts and the Italian ex perts found' comparatively little difference in ♦'heir respective fig ures on Italy’s capacity to pay, whereas in the case of France, the experts themselves were as wide apart as the poles.

WORLD-WIDE BROADCASTING OF RADIO PROGRAMS COMING SOON PREDICTION BASEDON TRIALS H. P. Davis, of Westinghouse Electric Company, Gives Views By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH World-wide broadcasting of en tertainment programs is just around the corner in radio de velopment, H. P. Davis, vice president of the Westinghouse Electric Company said today. Program transmission will be accomplished from central broad casting stations on the short wave lengths, with which Wes ting house experts have been experi menting for several years, Davis explained. Other stations would pick up thie short wave signals, trans form them into the conventional 200 to 600 meter waves and re broadcast the programs. Experiments Successful “The greatest opportunity for radio development in the immed iate future is in broadcasting, to organise it and obtain suitable pro gram material so that stations all over the world may tap this sup ply,’* said Davis. “Our experiments with amplifying th* radio signal seem to be suf ficiently successful to show that thio is feasible.

LOUIS GOLD C 0.—1214 F Street, N. W. JERSEY WRECK CAUSED BY ENGINEER PASSING TWO DANGER SIGNALS (Continued from First Page) of two crack Pennsylvania trains in which ten persons were killed, six others so seriously injured that they may die, and twenty-one more received minor injuries. The Mercantile Express, from St. Louis to New York, sped past two block signals and crashed into the rear of the Washington-New York Limited, which was creeping through a fog at ten miles an hour. Engineer Timothy J. Carroll, of the St. Louis train, was suspended by Edwin T. Mander, an official of the road, after an examination. “Carroll admitted he missed the signal,” Mander said. “He will never again run a passenger train.” His Brakes Too Late Carroll had been an engineer on the road for twenty-five years and never had a mishap. At the throttle of the St. Louis flier, he ran by the first signal in the fog and was running past an-, other when his fireman shouted. Carroll applied the brakes, but too late. “It was carelessness,” said Gen eral Superintendent F. D. Davis, of the New Jersey division of the Penn sylvania. The Pennsylvania road Issued a statement in which it said their investigating committee “reached the conclusion that the engineer of Train No. 6 (the one from St. Louis) did not observe the signals, which were properly set and in working order.” t All of the casualties were men. They were all occupants of the steel Pullman sleeper Muirheld, the last, car df the rammed Washing ton train. A revised list of the dead fol lows: M. M. Astusta, of Schenectady, N. chairman of the office com mittee of the General Electric Company. E. W. Bates, employe, baggage department, Pennsylvania raflroad, Baltimore. Arthur W. Gross, of Schenec tady. John C. Horstman, general man ager’s office, General Electric Company, Schenectady. T. F. Major, Pullman porter, 1531 Druid Hill avenue, Baltimore. K. D. Reed, of Schenectady, em ploye of the General Electric Com pany. Martin W. Longfellow, of Balti more. Three unidentified dead in morgue at New Brunswick, N. J. The six seriously injured who may not live are: W. H. Cunningham, of Newark, a flagman. D. H. Deyo, of Schenectady. Frank Hersey, of Baltimore. H. H. Lofton, of Chattanooga. Eugene Lowney, of Akron, Ohio, and W. H. Van Vorst, of Balti more. They were taken to hospitals in Trenton and Newark. About 125 passengers were in the two rear cars of the Washing ton train when they were crashed together by the St. Louis train« The last car was driven with terrific force against the one ahead. While investigations into the wreck were being made, State and Federal officials withheld comnwnt. The State Public 'Utilities Com mission were scheduled to open a full inquiry’ today.

Mrs. Hoover, wife of the Secre tary of Commerce, once head of the national organisation of Girl Scouts and still a devoted worker tor an appealing cause, was in the receiving line with Mrs. Walter R.

The five drove to the place in a touring car, a window in the restaurant was forced, and the bandits entered Ferayzo’s bed room. They awoke him and cov ered him with revolvers. Fer ayzo, terrified, gave up all the money in his possession, said to be more than SSOO. The robbers then proceeded to the restaurant and took cigars, cigarettes, to bacco, and other articles valued at S6QO, and left in their high powered car. The young woman acted as lookout. lies two years and his engage ment to Ann Pennington, also of the cast, was frequently reported. The couple were married in the chapel of St. Mary’s Seminary, St. Mary's City, Md., where the bride graduated last year. After the ceremony, the couple motored to the home of Johns’ parents, 1918 F street northwest. THE WASHINGTON TIMES The National Daily NOVEMBER It, 1526 SOPHIE HMSLIU IS TRIIJNIPH IN SONES Great Contralto Mixes Na tional Theater Program in Odd Fashion By JESSIE MacBRIDE Sophie Braslau, contralto' of un usual deep organ-toned voice, was heard in recital yesterday afternoon at the National Theater -as the third,- artist in the "Ten Star” con certs presented by T. Arthur Smith. Miss Braslau has a glorious voice. She is. ’in part, a contradiction. Possessed of dramatic power that carries her into a real triumph—in the very Russian "Dneipr” ,of Moussorgsky, with an interpreta tion as vivid and stirring as Chalia pin—she yet forsakes her special "genre” to essay trivial things that are not suited to her and (hat seem, heaven save the mark, to be an effort to cater io the "dear American public.” In doing this. Sophie Braslau uses tempestuous outbursts of voice that are unpleasantly explosive, that will in time, if she persists, take all the luscious velvet off her tones, that grow throaty in quality. Tet so much there is of finesse of charming art, that only the rare gifts of the artists make one lament the other things she lets come through For she has the soul of the dramatic interpreter. She has ob tained a true pianissimo that is de lightful. She captivates in such things as her fine outpouring of voice and rhythm and melody in Rubinstein’s exquisite “Romance,” given in Russian or in pure music as the Donaudy Italian "O del mio Amata ben,” her singing was rarely beautiful. What a fascinating Siebel she would make! Her final "Carmen’* encore, With the artist at the piano, was too extravagant, was really not her own but reminiscent of “tricks’* that do not bring the music from within. The “Curl, Curizzu” was better singing of the Carmen type, one of two lovely things by Sodero. The “Bayou Ballads**' we are used to finding French. A program note said they were negro. If so, Miss Braslau gave that effect. They do not suit her, however. Yet she sings the dainty "I Passed By Your Window” exceedingly well. There was rare insight as well as emotion in Kramer's "Faltering Dusk. What contralto have we who can so endow the vibrant deep tones in her register. With just a little less of the mediocre, with a program of deeper musical worth, Sophie Brae lau should be the great artist she is at times. AFRICAN COLONIES GOOD FIELD FOR U .S. NEGROES ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. IS.—Ameri can negroes, with the proper train ing, have unlimited opportunities in African coloniea of Germany and other European nations, according to Doctor D. Westermann, professor of African languages in the Univer sity of Berlin, who visited here recently on a tour of the South. “There are opportunities for American negroes, with the quail flcattons of leaders as missionaries, educators and agricultural and in dustrial leaders,” said Doctor West ermann. He told of the valuable work which has been done In German Togoland by five graduates of Tuskegee Institute, after they had been employed by the German government.

Coquelet, Soprano, Presented on Program By JESSIE MacBRIDE Charles Cooper, pianist, and Mme. Hanriette Coquelet, ■oprano, gave a most enjoyable recital last evening at the Masonic Auditorium, being presented by the Homer L. Kitt Piano Company, the concert really being a Kitt-Knabe recital, as Mr. Cooper uses the Knabe piano exclusively and—with a most facile, fluent technique—brings out its re sponsiveness most convincingly. Mr. Cooper is very essentially a player of the older classics. His tone is pure, his technique. clear cut, his phrasing writ defined. Still he gives sweet limpid beauty to his Chopin, which betokens the romantic temperament ae well, for his five "Preludes” were not only well played but were exceedingly musical, which is quite another matter. An “Old Minuet” of Sgambatl was a bit of pure formalism in music and the Beethoven "Turkish March,” for fjnal encore, was quite a climax in his recital. The virile march of., Rachmaninoff in his G minor Prelude was finely contrast ed with the impromptu effect and the watery, shimmering runs of the same composer’s Prelude, G major, while the Gliere “Romance” was a lovely thing and the artist included bits of Debussy, but here the illusive hesitant thing that gives these vague tone-pictures were effaced somewhat by a too ortho dox reading of the score. Henriette Coquelet always sings with an appealing sweetness. Her voice was particularly charming in the graceful Arditl “Il Bacio” waltz, and the same compelling rhythm was in the quite seductive lullaby or boat song—as you will— of “Pirate Dreams.” her second en core.- Mme. Coquelet has sung s with more freedom than last evening, with mdre abandon in her colora tura, but also as a singer of songs —such as “The Open Road” of Ross and “Duna,” of McGill, she is most pleasing. George Ross was at the piano for the singer. CONG.

HESS HU ST PIT BIG SUM TO PRINCE Half of Saint Cyr Trust Fund Required to Meet Long Standing Debt PHILADELPHIA, Nov. IS.—One half of a trust fund of 1600,000 14ft by the late Mrs. Jean H. E. Saint Cyr will ,go to Prince Alex ander of Thurn and Taxis as the result of action talftn by the court of common pleas on a petition of the Girard Trust Company. Mrs. Saint Cyr, who, previous to her sensational marriage to Saiut Cyr, had been left a large fortune by her husband, James Henry (Si lent) Smith, left $600,000 tp her daugher, the Princess Miguel d’Bra gansa, formerly Anita Stewart.

Mrs. Saint Cyr had given her daughter the right to transfer the title to the saciMl ties she was to get prior to re ceiving them. Prince Miguel, eldest son of the pretender of the throne of Portu gal, whom Miss 'Stewart married in Scotland in 1909, Incurred a deb*, to Alexander of some 69,000 pounds, and Prince Alexander ob tained judgments in England for the amount Involved in .1911 and 1912. To liquidate this debt the prin cess, in May, 1914, assigned to Prince Alexander twenty-five forty eighths of the trust fund that was to be loft her by her mother.

10 WIEAD TELLSOFFINE CAR VALUES. 4 t Balloon'Tires Only an Im provement, Says Oscar' Coolican, President ''A new thought in the purchasing of personal transportation is of fered by~ Oscar CooiJcan, president of the Packard Washington Motor Car Coi.ipany, in the statement that mechanical improvements in cars affect th* value of lower priced cars mure than the higher priced variety. This opin on was a’ver. in reply to the quest on, "W» v invest in a. high priced -:u;>l ini provements ai.rt ip- ovn i.’t r*i»d<r all prevk u» niudeis obsol*'» According to the large, high priced rar Were among the last to be fNcted by such Improvements aa four-wheel brakes and balloon tire* because their rid ing quality and braking ability were vastly -superior to the aver age car to «<art with. Motorists who have entertained the fear that m investing in a high grade car tney were .overlooking the effect of annual Improvements are told by the local Packard dealer -r that nsgn grade car neved needs improvements as frequently as cars which are less expertly designed. “A poorly designed engine bene fits very by the addition of-efficient accessories,” Mr. Cooli can says. ‘ln faet, the invention of such accessories quickly renders them necessities, for the poorly de signed eng ne is a■. back number without them. It is quite different witn :ne high grade engine. •Obviously it will benefit by the addition of efficiency devices but it is still acceptably efficient with out them. The owner does not need to give up his high grade car just because some new and valua ble changes hae voeen made. “No car, regardless of cost, is Immune to improvement. There Would be no progress if cars were viewed as perfect. But better cars enjoy the lead, and having a place* at the front, they are not rendehed obsolete over night. The owners already enjoy a large percentage of the auvanutges which the so-called radical changes offer. “Bahuun tires were a radical change for cars of certain price classes, but for many makes of high grade cate they were merely an fuipi cm wn«u t.

THE WASHINGTON TIMES TAe National Daily FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1925. TIME TO OFMMEH HEATING -i- s Sally Davison Gives a Fsw Hints on How to Keep Howto Cortifortable J. -j r 11 By E. DAVIDSON Unless, one Is; living in an apart ment, wherp providing such a necis sary item as heat is of no moment except to, the janitor, some con sideratlon should be given to win ter heating cojriforts. Being a woman,, my thoughts im mediately turn to. the trials and that are imposed upon us, nr rufter on thope/pf us who live in ‘separate houses,, by our friendly enemy, the furnace. I have been told there is a furnace which hppda no attention once the helper hgs bqen filled In the morn ing. but otirs is not this- kind. In stead, all my experience is based oh the small mouth and large stomach variety. Such a furnace, if it is not yawning for fuel, needs more draft, or if. it has fuel and draft, then the latter needs to he Never, a day passed that -I did pot make at‘ least three trips to the cellar. Looks For Relief So ode day- out of sheer despera tion I went in search of relief. As is nearly always true when one is ‘truly seeking—l found it. I found an .electric furnace stoker which i would solve the problem, so far as was concerned, of coaling the furnace and also an electric heat regulator that would further eliminate trips to the cellar to reg ulate the, fm-ngoe. At the end of my. search I reached home to con vince my better half of our npod for both these devices. Inasmuch as the electric furnace stoker, beside relieving me promised to simplify Mr. Davidson’s furnace Work, it. required even less skill and effort to convert him tozthc advisability of our acquiring one. it has tired our furnace throughout one winter and we have found it altogether worth while; so much so, in tact, that I thought other housewives with similar-' trou bjeii' might appreciate knowing about it. The; stoker is an electrically op erated device which performs all the duties ordinarily done by the fur nace man*—putting coal on the tire, keeping it burning brightly and clearing .ashes from the ash pit. This last particularly appealed to Mr, Davidson. After it had been installed about a week he remarked that this would doubtless be the first winter since we moved Into a house that he would go to busl neso feeling clean. But this is by no means all of the\ electric stoker’s accomplish ments. Besides reducing both of opr Work with the furnace, it also maketo .possible radical economies in the coal bill because with it we can bum pea, buckwheat, rice or barley coal which costs a great deal less than the ordinary sizes of furnace coal. For example, our yearly coal bill, before we acquired the stoker, ran about 3200, while last year, burning the same amount of buck wheat coal, fifteen tons only cost less than 3100. The Heat Regulator The effort the stoker saved us in shoveling coal and emptying ashes, the heat regulator amplified in end ing otir trips to the cellar. The device is remarkable in that it not ''only eliminates the necessity for having to go .down to the cellar to regulate the furnace, but also because it makes it possible to maintain an even temperature. All that one is required to do is to set the clock when heat is to be in creased or decreased and the device does the work. Anyone who has ever gotten up out of a warm bed at 5 or 6 o'clock in the morning and' gone down to the cellar to open up the furnace so the house might be warm when the kiddies and the wife were readv to rise will appreciate the luxury of having this device. RIFLE BURSTS, SOLDIER JOINS QEAD HE SALUTES PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 13.—Do ing his bit in commemorating the ending of the War, a soldier of the Fifteenth Ordnance Company, U. S. A., stationed at the Frankford Arsenal, was killed when his rifle exploded as he fired it in an Armistice Day salute. The dead soldier, Private Thomas McGovern, was selected as one of a squad to fire the salute after Com pany M, under command of Cap tain E. L. Rodgers, had finished drilling as part of the day’s pro gram. The soldiers raised their rifles to their shoulders as officers raised their hands in salute. At the com niand, "Fire!” McGovern’s rifle ex ploded in his face, tearing away a portion of his jaw and trigger-hand. WATCH!

FREIGHT MIES ONMISKEF UPHELD Warranted by Necessity of 1 Special Care Given by Railroads Existing freight rates charged on shipments of whiskey, "in glass, in barrelp, or boxes,” in carloads and less than carloads, <rom various Eastern points to destinations in California, are not unreasonable, the Interstate Commerce Commis sion held today. Efforts of a num ber of shippers to secure reparation from *the railroads sor 1 alleged ex cessive rates were unsuccessful. The commission took occasion to point out that the transportation of whiskey under present conditions "is a source of much annoyaace and unusual expense to the rail roads.” Such shipments are under tepecial protection of railroad police from the time they coma into the possession of the railroad until they are delivered to the consignee. A guard rides the car containing it during switching movements and on the line hauls. Furthermore, each division no tifies the next division of the train and car number, so that a relief guard may be on hand at the divi sion point to ride the car to the next division. At destination a con stant watch is kept .until delivery is effected. In making up a train, a car containing whiskey is placed next to the, caboose, necessitating extra switching. In some instances the cost of policing whiskey shipments has ex ceeded the volume of the freight earnings of 329.96 on a whiskey shipment from Louisville to- Chi cago on which the cost of policing was S6O. A number of similar in stances were also cited. Will Cuts Off Family BARRY, Wales, Nov. 13.—Joseph A.

CABS Sir William Letta Cites Heavy Tax as Actual Stimulus to Market The British automobile market holds a great opportunity for Amer ican manufacturers who approach It with a full realization of its pos sibilities and its problems, accord ing to Sir William Letts, veteran automobile manufacturer and presi dent of the Willys-Overland-Crossley Company, of Manchester, England. Sir William, now on his twenty sixth visit to America, recently was elected president of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders of Great Britain, the highest office open to any member of the auto mobile industry. Owing to his "great experience, his unusually interna tional viewpoint, and his authorita tive position among British manu facturers, the optimistic and con structive views expressed by Sir William Letts at this time are of particular interest. and importance. McKenna Duties. “The McKenna duties of 33 I*3 per cent on motor' cars Imported into Great Britain, which have re cently been reimposed, contrary to a rather common impression, should stimulate and greatly improve the opportunities of the British market. “Obviously, the development of the British market for automobiles must depend fundamentally upon the prosperity and steady employ ment of the British workman. By placing a protective tariff on auto mobiles, Great Britain gives her do mestic manufacturers an oppor tunity to develop a large volume of business and to keep domestic labor employed, thus putting into the pockets of workmen the means es purchasing automobile transpor tation. “Those American manufacturers who have studied this situation realize that their opportunity in this market lies in the establish ment of British factories to build in Great Britain cars which have the economies and advantages of your volume production and Ameri can design.” The firm establishment of Willys- Knight and Overland automobiles in the British market, through the organisation in 192 b of the Willys- Overland-Crossley Company, was cited by Sir William as a typical example. "When John N. Willys estab lished in 1920 the Willys-Overland- Crossley Company, with a large pro portion of British capital, to build the Overlapd car by British work men with British material, he laid the foundation for the present popularity of Willys-Overland prod ucts in Great Britain. Fopnd Great BUhuriasm “In Mr. Willys’ recent visit with ime to the Willys-Overland agents throughout Europe, we found every where the greatest enthusiasm fur tho new Willys-Knight Six and the new Overland Six. The first de livery of 200 of the Overland Sixes in the British market was absorbed instantly, and it has been fre quently spoken of as one of the most beautiful cars this year in Great Britain. "The British company also has developed the commercial vehicle, the Overland one-ton truck, to an amazing degree. Sales in this com mercial field are constantly increas ing. The -British-built Overland four-cylinder model of low price, great economy and excellent design is now seen with great frequency on every British road. "Os course, I appreciate,” said Sir William, "that a very measurable portion of the success of the Brit ish company today is a reflection of the wonderful success of the Willys-Overland company in Amer ica. I understand that the assets of this company have been in creased more than $30,000,000 within the past three years. We cannot hope to think of figures such as these in our British company for some time to come, but the market in Great Britain will develop just as it has developed over here —through the development of the motor car as a fundamental economy in trans portation, and I am convinced that such far-seeing leaders of American automobile manufacturing as John N. Willys are going to reap a great reward for their foresight in linking up their manufacturing in timately on a sound economic basis with the domestic interests of Great Britain.” Colonel Hacking Present With Sir William Letts on his visit to America this year was Colonel Hacking, secretary of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, who paid his first visit to America in a series of visits to the various important motor car manufacturers of this country. Amazement at the degree to which standardized production has reduced costs of motor car manufacturing in America was expressed by Colonel Hacking. Sir William expects to return to England on September 5. after spending some time at the great Willys-Overland plants in Toledo and other automobile factories, studying the development of the past twelve months in manufactur ing details and methods. The Society of Motor Manufac turers and Traders, of which Sir William Letts is president, now comprises 1,100 members, Including approximately 100 British manufac turers of cars and commercial ve hicles, sixty-five manufacturers and concessionaires of European ve hicles, and twenty-nine manufactur ers and concessionaires of Ameri can-made motor vehicles. Marked Influence This society exercises a very marked influence on the develop ment of the whole motor industry throughout Great Britain, as it works for the development of ecund legislation and so.- the im provement of retail trade conditions. It has been very influential in the development of roads in Great Britain for motor traffic, which nt the present time has reached the approximate figure of $250,; 00.U00.

I/■ ■rMMH The Times and The Herald’s Classified Section |m|B Beginning November 27 B DE LUXE LINER ELIMINATES SMOKE Swedish Ship Uses Diesel Motors But Has Dummy Stacks GOTHENBERG, Nov. 12.—Like, women’s bonnets, the two funnels on the new Swedish trans-Atlantic liner Gripsholm, which will ar rive in New York on Its maiden trip about December 1, have been designed for their decorative effect rather than essential utility. Being propelled entirely by motors of the Diesel type, this novel ocean greyhound is both smokeless an<| steamless, and' -when it chugs its way up the New York bay it will be the first craft of its kind to enter that historic roadstead. But though the Gripsholm does not use steam In any form, not even’ for cooking or heating, the traditional outline of trjins-Atlantic liners with two smokestacks has’ been preserved. There are no boilers, no dark-hued stokers, pant ing for air, no soot, no belching smoke, no cinders to set rid of, but since funnels are still in style for big passenger liners the designers of this one have put in two dum mies. One of them Is' used as an elec tric elevator Xhaft between the six different decks and’the other partly to carry off the exhaust from the motors and partly as a ventilator. The name, Gripsholm, is taken from that of a historic Swedish castle near Stockholm, built in' the Sixteenth century, and the interior decorations of the ships have been modeled on those of the former royal residence. On board there is a regal suite, consisting of drawing!room, bed room, toilet, bath and dressing-room, and in the future it is likely to be used by different members of the royal family of Sweden, contemplat ing trips to the United Stated. Os these the heir to the throne, Gustavus Adolphus, and his'Spouse, who is z a cousin of King George of England, wttl probably be the first When they visit Washington next spring in connection with the un veiling of the monument to John Ericsson, Throughout the Gripsholm is lighted by eleetrieity. No steam is usdd'on board'for any purpose. Even the hoisting engine is oper ated by an electric current.
