WASHINGTON, Oct 30.—Uncle
oam Is keeping his sys on the devel
opment of automobile truck* ass
means of destruction, and ass trans
portation agency in war time. Up to
the present, however, it was admitted
by the war department today, he has
not gone in tor purense of any of the
bags armored oars which have sur
prised the world in their use abroad.
Use of trucks along the Mexican
border, however, has developed
strongly in the last few months. The
Quartermaster's department has about
100 of various makes, which it Is sat
isfactorily trying out.
To resist the racking effects of or
dinary travel all war trucks are now
equipped with solid rubber tires, so
"blow outs" are unknown.
Gen. Cposier, chief of ordnance, ex
plained today that the United States
Is situated so that it could purchase
armored trucks—carrying eight men
end two machine guns—at short no*
oca Hence there is no pressing ne
cessity for trying to develop this new
engine of killing, so far as the United
States army is concerned.
American Arms, it was said, have
recently shipped a huge quantity of
transportation trucks, and armored
ears, to panada,'"Vi- be shipped with
tte Canadian forces to the European
fields. These trucks Cost around 96.*

ment figures.

Republican Candidate Declares
Well-Meaning Democrats
Have Failed
SPEAKS TO BIG HAND
AT COMMERCE BOARD
Enthusiastic Reception Is Given
To the Gubernatorial
Capdidate
Citing the prophecy of Thomas Bab
ington Macauley, the great English
critic of the previous century, who
said that the danger to the national
life of the United States came from
within itself and not from forces out
side, Chase 8. Osborn, at a big noon
day dinner at the Board of Commerce,
appealed to the business men of De
troit to exercise their right of ballot
at the coming election and do their
part in giving the state and city the
sort of government they should have,
“You men understand the condi
tions in this state and in Detroit bet
ter than the rank and file," said Mr.
Osborn. "Your powers of reasoning
and understanding are highly devel
oped. You have greater opportunity
to master the problems of govern
ment and just so much more should
you show your appreciation by exer
cising your right v to vote and doing
your share in the furtherance of good
government
’ “The rank and file will vote largely
by Instinct and our greatest philoso
phers tell us that Instinct seldom
fails. Now then, with you using your
reasoning and the thousands their
God-given instinct, I don’t believe we
need worry about the retult”
Mr. Osborn attacked the Wilton ad
ministration. He declared the Dem
ocratic party to be a failure at » rul
ing power. He credited it with good
intentions, but aald it lacked experi
ence. He contributed our present
business troubles to Democratic in
efficiency. He named the Republican
party as tbe party schooled in the art
of government, and the only vehicle
by which prosperity could ho ob
tained. He pleaded for support of the
Republicans at ths state election on
the ground that the party birthplace
was Michigan, and that the entire na
tion looked to Michigan this fall to
soe whether the party of Lincoln,
McKinley and prosperity, would be
repudiated by the state of Its birth.
Mr. Osborn was warmly greeted by
the SOO members who attended the

CHECK PLAN TO SAVE
CLERKS NEEDLESS WORK
City Treasurer Max C. Koch has co
operated with Controller George Engel
to simplify the payment of the city's
bills. It Is now necessary fbr any
body doing work for the city to first
come to the city hall and sign a
voucher tn the controller's office, then
to take the check with a warrant at
tached to the city treasurer's office for
payment. This system is antiquated,
the treasurer says, and causes need
less tother on the part of the payee
aa well as In the two city offices.
After Nov. 1 the city treasurer will
mail checks to all persons having
money coming from the city. The
vouchers will be made out as usual,
but will remain unsigned in the con
troller's office, as Controller Engel has
pointed out that nine-tenths of the
persons that algn these vouchers do
so without proper authorisation. The
cancelled checks will be filed with the
city treasurer as receipts for bills
paid. Treasurer Koch says the new
payment system* will save fsom SO to
100 calls a day at the cashier's win

The Assertions Credited To

believe Walter Johnson ever said he
would go to the highest bidder, but
if he did, the Washington club will

"We will offer him the highest amount
in oar power and atop there. How
ever. I don't believe any of this Junk
coming from St Louis. Walter has
yet to write me about the contract
and I am relying upon his honesty
to do that before coming to terms
with anybody else."
When asked concerning the report
ed statement of Ban Johnson that
Walter will be aued under the latest
form of reserve clause, Manager Grif
fith refused to discuss it
"I don't want to talk about that at
all,' said Griffith. "I bank a whole lot
on Walter’s sense of honor, and have
yet to be fooled by him In anything."
