Newton D. Baker, secretary of war,
assorts that President Wilson's princi
pal claim for ro-electlon is based on
.the fact that h has kept tho country
out of war. As a matter of fact that
clntin Is about as empty as The muni
tions prosperity anset. Once the presi
dent went to war with Mexico, nt Vora
Cruz, nnd recently created a 'state of
war by Invading thnt country with a
punitlvo expedition. In each Instance
tho nentlmonl of the people prevented
him from going tho whole longtli of the
rope. There Is little reason to doubt
that lie would have been at war with
Germany had It not boon for Secretary
of State Bryan and the sobering senti
ment of tho country which had nn ef
fect upon him. Quick expression of the
popular voice of tho country has twice
at least snatched him from the brink
of war. The American peoplo have
prosorved peace only by insisting upon
It. Kearney Hu1,

OF UNSKILLED LABOREHS
According to tiio Immigration office
nearly 500,000 persons emigrated from
this country in tho last two years, or
since tho beginning of tho war, n very
considerable 'percentage of whom were
part of tho national force of common
laborers. Tho higher prices command
ed by skilled labor and the demand
in excess of the available supply has
Increased tho normal rate of gradua
tion front the unskilled to the skilled
rnnks, which goes on continually, and
there lias been no adequate supply to
make up tho decimation of tho former.
Immigration, which usually supplies
the unskilled force, has averaged for
tho last two years less than a llfth of
the normal lnpourlng, and the porcent
ago of able-bodied laborers In this
diminished Immigration Is reduced.

FDO WER must be reckoned in reference to the weight
involved. This is the big underlying truth that is often
overlooked in careless statements about horsepower.
We repeat that Maxwell cars have greater horsepower,
per pound of weight, than any car built
This haa been proved within the last six months
by four cc.-r.peiitrse tests made in ' the two leading
scientific schools of the United States.
The point for you to remember is this:
Maxwell cars, will take you anywhere that any car
will take you and they'll take you as fast as you'll dare
to travel.
