WAR - TERRORS
International politicians, who call
ed themselves sttaesmen, realize that
an armaments race is on again.
There is talk of a necessity for out
lawing submarines, flying bombers
and poison gas particularly the
poison gas.
All very well, but eventually . the
politicians will realize that in our
scientific age disarmament must be
honest, absolute and. complete all
along the line not here and there,
barring some weapons, permitting
others. Halfway disarmament can
not keep pace with the fiends work
ing in laboratories to perfect new
killing devices.
The key to real disarmament Is to
disarm the politicians the people
should strip them of their war mak
ing power.
The next war will not be decided
in the air, under the water or by
death dealing gas. These efficient de
vices will be obsolete within 50 yars
and it takes that long for the peo
ple, on the law of averages, to get
enough, money saved up to finance
another big war.
We wonder what is doing In some
of the secret German laboratories.
Let them find a way to spread germs
of some dread disease (and a method
to immunize themselves) and Ger
many wouldn't need flying machines,
boats or poison gas.
Future war weapons will be germs
planted life blights to kill the ene
my's food supplies, and artificial
lightning. That "future" may-not be

Uranus was in Gemini when we had
our revolutionary war and it spells
bloodshed for us every time. What

it may be over home brew. Wonder
whether It would be possible to pre

Vast Resources Make Possible
High Value at Low Price in
Studebaker LighuSix
Studebaker's vast resources are utilized to manu
facture (not assemble) the Light-Six complete in
the newest and most modern large automobile plants
in the world;
The Corporation's resources, consisting of
$85,000,000 of actual net assets, including $45,000,
000 of plants, make it possible for Studebaker to
offer a six-cylinder car, at less than $1,000, that is
emphatically superior in desigil, construction, per
formance, comfort and dependability, to any car
within hundreds of dollars of its price.
By complete manufacture, Studebaker not only
guards the quality of each part, but saves the mid
dlemen's profits, with the result that no other make
of car ever built, by anyone, at any price, represents
so great a dollar-for-dollar value as the Light-Six.
Evidence of its mechanical superiority is found in
its practical freedom from vibration.' This is accom
plished by the perfect balance of the motor. Perfect
balance is obtained largely through the complete
machining of all surfaces of the crankshaft and
connecting rods. This requires 61 precision oper
ations. - i
This method is followed exclusively by Studebaker
on cars at this price. In fact, very few other cars
have this feature, and their prices are from three
to ten times as great as that of the Light-Six.
It is significant, therefore, that the sale of more
thaj 80,000 Studebaker cars during the first six
months of this year broke all records.
Buyers are justified in expecting more for their
money in a Studebaker than in any other car.

They employ 12,000

They cost $33,250,000.

The assembly and stock
plants which cost $5,000,

open body plants, spring
6hops, etc
Studebaker plants, in
cost and size, are the sec
ond largest of the world's
automobile plants.
Studebaker Is the second
strongest financially of the
automobile manufacturers
of the world.
These facts show why it
is possible for Studebaker
to produce the Light-Six
a truly remarkable car
and sell it tor less than a
thousand dollars.
In actual oar value per
dollar of price the Light
Six is in a class by itself.
No prospective buyer of an
automobile should decide
on anything until he has
seen and driven this car.
It is backed by a corpo
ration with $85,000,000 of
actual net assets and a 71
year reputation for honest
product and fair dealing.
