9. It traverses tho history of Its litiga
tion In five states, and says: "In no
tas lias l( bean found that the company
had used ntjy of tho wrongful competi
tive methods mentioned or complained of
In the report, or that tho company has
oppressed or Injured the furnicr. And
no farmer has ever so testified agulnst
tho company; but hundreds of farmers
have testified' to Its fair treatment, mod
crate prices and Improved machines and
service,"
10. The communication closes with these
paragraphs: . ,
"It Is significant' that the defendants of
tho company, as shown by the court rec
ords, aro tho farmers, the dealers, and
the competitors, wtho ulone would suffer
If tho charges were true that nro made
against tho company by those, Who have
mver had business doallngs with It."
In view of the foregoing facts," the
general counsel says, "I uppoal to the
quick senso of Justice und fairness of
every member of your committee, to cor
net tho erroneous stotemenlH referred
tn above, flurcly, It Is now clear that it
serious wrong has beoii done this com
pany by the wide publicity given your
report. Surely It Is now clear that public
discussion of the International Harvester
company Is Improper and unfair, while
the government null against It Is still
pending before the court."

the best bargains
At this time of the year while many people are buying
new cars, some really exceptional bargains in used cars can
be found. Owners are willing to sell at almost any price to
make room for the new car.
The ndvantnges of owning n car are well known to you and probably tho
only obstacle is that of price. Just turn bad: to the classification of "Automo
biles" in the Want Ad Section nnd you will find a number of excellent offers of
first-clnss cars ut a fraction of the original cost.
If you have not thought of this before, this will be a valuable tip to you.
