Efficiency
Haulage, is a vital feature of man
ufacturing efficiency. It affects
production, deliveries, satisfaction
of customers and profits.. Have
you ever thoughtfully studied the
possibilities of increasing the effi
ciency of your plant by using one
or more SERVICE Motor Trucks?
Consider the possibilities of on
time delivery of important orders
in spite of the present railroad
handicap. Think of the go-get-it
ability of SERVICE Motor Trucks
when you lack certain supplies to
complete work in hand. In this
regard alone a fleet of SERVICE
Trucks might easily pay for them
selves in a few trips. Then think
of the the day-in-and-day-out haul
age that must be done in the course
of your business, regardless of
railroad or material conditions,
Think of SERVICE Motor Trucks
not from the expense standpoint,
but from the inrcstmertt stand
point. Ask yourself Huh question:
"Can I invest, ?2000ti ?:i()00, $5000,
make the investment provide its own
einking fund, pay me liberal inter
est, and increase my business?"

Dottiest lo Clay Not Icvclortl to F.x-
tenl This t'otintry Can ltoJy on
It to I ill All Ncedrt.
Most of us think clay la aomething
an cuininiin and abundant aa saint or
gravel. Consequently It comes ns u
surprise to be told by tho Hhlppmg
board committee on mineral imports
und export In Washington that even
in this day of great .-ahoeiage of
ocean-going ships we have to im
port from Kngland every year 2w,
000 to 250, 000 long tons of clay
I.UHt year we Imported more than
alio, OOd tons over tho ocean. -
Furthermore, a great pat t of thin
clay cornea over In steamers loaded
full und tho rest In lug mi-ninem
loaded with clay up to f.O per cent
and more of their maximum carry
ing rapacity. These ships put Into
Kowey, Kngland. for their freight.
To get this clay on and off the
boats requires leu days on each
cargo. An In.s.gnlflcant percentage
of the clay Is shipped us ballast.
This represents small lota loaded
Into liners at Liverpool. Hut It will
he seen that the Importation of I"ng
llsh clay consumes an Important
amount of ship tonnage measured
in days time lost because of natural
delays Incident to tho transport of
this freight.
IomcKfic Drpoetta I'naYvrlopcd
Why do our manufacturers pay
the high freight rates now ncces
sary In order to obtain an article
like clay from England? There Is,
ns we all know, an abundance of
clay In this country. A great deal
of high-grade clay la produced here,
anil of a character suitable for pot
tery, porcelains and other articles
which require clays of special ex
cellence in their manufacture- But
not much over half of clay of thla
grade that our Industries require
la domestic. , When war broke out
In 1914 only a third of It was domes
tic. We have not been able to de
velop and equip our deposits fast
enough to make these Knglisn, clay
Imports unnecessary. In fact. It Is
doubtful whether we will produce
aa much high grade clay In 1918 at
we did In 1H17. Our manufacturers
want tho clay but they cannot get
anywhere near as much aa they
want. The reduced output la due
to railroad and operating conditions
and Is not related to the character
or sie of the deposits which are
capable of large production.
Iioinestic. producers do not mine
their clay quite as cleanly aa their
Kngllsh competitors. Nor Is the
dimit-oii clay as uniform In chnrsu
ter It will not bring the high prices
paid for Knglteh clay. Hut more
could be sold If il could be prodded
and carried to its market. HtiI Wre
could be marketed if cleaner, more
uniform clay were produced, fgr, In
thiif event the consumers would use
a greater percentage of domestic
nnd correspondingly less Kngllsh
clay In their mixtures. i
Iltiweyer. our complete dependence
upon Kngllsh clay continues- We
must rely on Kngllsh clay as a chief
Ingredient of the dishes we eat from,
the r"l'cr in our hooks and maga
zines, th" porcelain In our electrlo
light sockets nnd half a doxen other
articles of less general use.
Fortunately it is a fact that far
less Kngllsh clav is necessary to
proper manufacture of paper than
Is now used, ltrsldes domestic clay
there are many othrr si'iltetanccs of
domestic origin that could be used
in the body, not the finish, of this
paper. Also over half of the Kngllsh
clay we use Is consumed In making
paper. So that if a shortage of Kng
llsh clav should develop It would
n"t he highly serious until tho short
age l ei sine vr ry great, until there
was only a half if the normal sup
fly or less nvalli ble.

WHAT ABOUT RUBBER
Talk Is nf RpMrh-tlmi of Imrstrtallou
Hut Nothing .lias Happened Ho
l ar Stocks on Hand JfKxl
NKW YOitK, May 11 The rubber
situation In the 1'nlted Mates Is In
separably linked up with ahlp ton
nage, uml for this reason the rubber
trade would not he aurprlsed If a
partial embargo were placed on im
ports. As yet no orflclul communica
tion has been made with regard to
this matter.
The lihlpplng board is understood
to he still considering the data and
Information placed before it ss a re
sult of the hearing given the rubber
trade a few weeks ago.
In tho Interim reports have become
current that rubber mills will be re
quested to devote a considerable pro.
portion of their production facilities
to the manufacture of rubber foot
wear for tho army. It is not clear
exactly wher this report originated.
Kubber manufacturers, however, are
not greatly concerned over It for the
reason that only about 10 per cent
of the rubber imported is used In
producing footwetir.
Tiro. Take 70 r Cent.
The pj-oductlon of tires takes about
70 per cent and the balance goes
for mechanical devices and sundries.
It Is pointed out by rubber Import
ers thnf any kind of rubber can be
used for rootwear whereas certAln
giatles e.re most suitable for tires;
the use of these grades for footwear
would be poor efrioiency.
Tho transportation difficulties
which up to the present time have
checked the receipt of rubber in Ak
ron and other centers are rapidly dis
appearing. Akron Is receiving shlp
iiienia quite freely from the Pacific
const, where the bulk of the Im
ports are '(reived. It Is stated that
the principal rubber mills have good
stocks on hand and that even though
a partial embargo amounting to 20
pee cent were placed on Imports thla
would not compel an Immediate re
striction of output. The mills could
run along for a number of weeks at
their present capacities.
During 1917 the United States con
sumed 182,000 tons of rubber which
was about 71 per cent of the world's
production of 2(7.000 tons. Of this
total approximately 20 per cent waa
wild ruhber, the balance being plan
tation product. The production of
plantation rubber haa Increased from
about two per cent In 1907 to 30 per
ent in is it.

gasoline already has been tested
with the result that the average
consumption dropped Immediately.
Thla proved that not unimportant
quantities of gasoline had been sold

Americans-Banks-Motor Trucks
A Red Cross Membership Card and a Liberty Bond do not make a
reliable American. He is reliable when he has proven by more than
outward pretense that his heart is in the right place and beating with
regularity for the U. S. A. " - ,
A charter and a mahogany desk do not make a reliable bank it is
when it has proven its trustworthiness by soundness of financial condi
tion and capability of its management.
Four wheels, a motor and an axle do not make a reliable truck it
is reliable only when made mechanically right and braced up by manu
facturers who have established their permanenecy in the auto-truck in
dustry and the unquestioned worth of their product.
Why Take a Chance on a Truck of Unproven or
Doubtful Reliability?
Why take, a chance with a curbstone dealer who is here today and
gone tomorro'w or changes his line with every new. moon ?
Isn't it economy for you to do business with' a concern who backs up
every promise made and whose reputation and integrity is above re
