FROM WAR TO PEACE
IN MOTOR INDUSTRY
Automobile Trade Did More Than
Its Bit to Help Win War.
Fleet of American Trucks Coming In.
to Use for Additional Transporta
tion Facilities Needs Services
of Released Soldiers.
As a single industry the automobile
trade did more than its bit to help win
the war. Not only did manufacturers
come up to specifications in quantity ]
und quality of delivery, but they built
better than It was thought they knew j
how. Proof of this was given the oth
er day when, at an auction of old army
cars in France, the French and tlie
English bid higher prices for the cars
than they cost the American govern- >
ment new. An army of men was em
ployed to run these trucks and cars j
on the firing line. They gained more
experience in a month of that sort of
work than they could have gained In
a. lifetime of peace work.
The rolling stock will be left abroad
but the men are coming back. Thej i
are being released dally from the mili- i
tary service, and are returning in large
numbers to civilian life. There is no '
lack of work for them to do. For the i
fleet of American trucks now coming |
into use for additional transportation !
facilities all over the country needs just i
such men— who have learned how '
to act in.any emergency, who feel al- j
most Immediately the idiosyncrasies of
every motor, who have acquired an effi
ciency under shell fire that will make
them leaders in their work in peace
times.
Col. Arthur Woods, assistant to the
secretary of war, who is in charge of
the re-employment work for ex-service .
men, announces that a number of such '
men, are now available for private em- j
ploy. The automobile industry will j
not lose this opportunity of obtaining !
men who, to their pre-war ability, have
added the exceptional training and ex
perience of months on the firing line.
These men will be in demand, and can
be obtained through governmental and |
welfare employment agencies, who will
put them in touch with employers who
need their services.

PIPE MAKERS USING BIRCH
Wood Has Been Found to Be Eminent
ly Suitable, After Treatment by
a Special Process.
American birch since the war has ac- !
quired a South American name. Nowa
days It is fashioned into pipes and
then called something besides birch.
The only evident reason for the
change seems to be the fact that the
process that converts soft birch Into a
hard pipe was originated In a Latin
American country, according to the
New York Evening Sun.
Blrchwood owes Its new name and
its present prominence in the pipe In
dustry to the war, which cut off the
supply of briar and sent the prices
of the stocks In America sky high.
Substitutes have been sought for
the expensive Imported briar. The ces
sation of Importations with the war
they haven't been resumed yet—lnten
sifies the search for an American wood
that would provide a suitable substi- ,
tute. |
Many native hardwoods were tried I
without success. Most of them were j
either too hard to be worked Into pipes |
or too heavy to rest comfortably be- j
tween a smoker's lips. Then some '
one hit on the expedient of trying a
soft wood and employing a process that
would give It the required hardness for j
Use in pipe manufacturing. Birch was
found the most suitable for the pur
pose.

Much Proposed Legislation.
So many Ideas have developed In '.
congress as to what should be done for
the former service man, that Senator
Robinson of Kansas has proposed the
appointment of a special joint commit- !
tee to keep tab on proposed legislation j
of that nature. Some 1,800 measures
relating to insurance compensation, j
back pay. bonuses, homestead Ing priv
ileges, home buying schemes, proposed
loans and many otb^r matters of In- I
terest to those who served with the
■colors, have been Introduced In the I
present congress and referred to vari
ous committees. The average is al
most three hills per member for both ;
bouses. Senator Robinson would have I
three men from the house and three
from the senate appointed to sift the
wheat from the chaff in all such leg
islation
