. Expert Advises the Public
To Buy. Auto Trucks Early
. "Order your motor trucks early,"
was the keynote of an address de-
- livered by S. V. Norton, truck sales
f manager, of the B. F. Goodrich Rub
ber company, to the Truck Owners'
: conference held in Chicago last week.
After showing how great the for-
eign demand for American motor
trucks had added a tremendous im
petus to the industry in the United
States during the last three, years, he
emphasized the fact that our own
government's entry Into the war
would create a corresponding demand
' for trucks and drivers.
"Motor trucks are already compet-
ing successfully with railroads in a
:, great many instances, so that the de
mand for them will not be confined
entirely to our government require-
ments. said Mr. Morton. "It is cer
; tain that 75,000 trucks will be neees
, sary for the first big American ex
peditionary force. The supplying of
' these, trucks to the government will
be confined ' to those manufacturers
whose construction and design con
1 form to government specifications
and these manufacturers will be guar
f anteed prompt delivery of parts and
'raw materials by the War depart
ment.- .
"It is not impossible that older men
: and possibly women may be needed
to replace experience truck drivers,
I who will be needed for government
, serviee and in the truck manufactur
er's sales organizations older salesmen
- will be needed to take the place of
the younger men who enter the gov
eminent service. All of these condi
tions tend to prove that the motor
truck business is destined for a gent
erotis expansion rather than a depres-
sion and my advice to prospective
; purchasers of trucks is to buy them
, now, while they are available.

: Cadillac Eight Leader
In War Work in France
, Private Cyril Hartley of the Cans
' dian army service corps, on duty in
France, has written to friends in this
; country of the work being done in
-.France by the Cadillac Eight.
, Private Hartley is an American,
who drove a Cadillac in Los Angeles.
He is now in the motor division of the
- Canadian army, and his letter is the
, first information received regarding
the great number of Cadillacs which
i are in active service.
His letter says that the Cadillac
Eights are standing up better than
, any of the cars they have over there.
, There are a great many of them,
, mostly 1516 models, in service ' in
England and France. They are used
1 principally for ambulance service. He
. ' says he cannot describe the hard us-
' age they get. The hardest work is
" nothing to compare with the things
j these Cadillacs hare to do. The Cad
, illacs always get the most important
work and every day they are showing
their superiority over all other makes.
fThey average, Private Hartley says,
; from twelve ot fifteen miles to a gal
, Ion of petrol, which is considered
very good in this work.
; Leslie -Mann Volunteers
For Y.M. C. A, War Service
' The Cubs soon may lose Leslie
Mann. The fleet outfielder, who is a
graduate instructor from the Young
Men's Christian Association training
school at Springfield, Mass., has reg-
( istered for Young Men's Christian as
sociation war work and expects a call
', to ttrvice most any day. The Young
Men's Christian association is giving
"parc'cular attention to physical work
'among the soldiers and Mann, with
'his big league reputation, should be a
card among the boys in khaki who
want instruction in base ball. Mann's
hope is that he won't be sent to a
training camo in this country, but that
he wi11.be assigned to duty in. France

General Botha Issues Warning
Against Dangerous Propa
ganda Tavoring Independ
ence of South Africa.
Cape Town, South Africa, June 15.
A grave warning against propaganda
aiming at the political independence
of South Africa has just been issued
broadcast by General Botha. His state
ment follows:
"Members of the South African
party must not allow themselves to
be misled by false and misleading
propaganda for independence. The
proposal, is now being made merely
to win votes at the provincial council
elections by an appeal to sentiment,
and not to the sound sense of the
people. .
"The proposal is wholly impracti
cable, and is moreover very danger
ous, for in the present war conditions
it can only lead to bitterness, division,
race hatred and even civil war.
"There is in South Africa a strong
English population whose motherland
is now engaged in a life and death
struggle. It is not surprising that they
regard this movement as treasonable
and disloyal. It is unjust and dishon
orable to make such an attempt at
this moment, and the dishonor is all
the greater as the proposal is onlv in
tended to catch votes for a particular
party.
"My warning is intended very earn
estly, because i toresee in this move'
ment nothing but ruin for South Af
rica and disastrous consequences for
the South African people. I appeal
above all to our pioneers and the
fathers of our. people to follow the
safe way of honor, along which
great future awaits us."
Service the Word that
Spells Success, Says Killy
"Service," asserts W. L. Killy of the
Noyes-Killy Motor company, "is the
stumbling block in the automobile
business. The proper interpretation
of this one word service may spell
either success or failure to the motor
car dealer. -We
have made a study of this
branch of the work and have adopted
a creed about as follows:
"Destructive service becomes criti
cal, . oppressive, and destroys con
fidence. Destructive service is a weap
on that tears down the better things
of men, causes an eruption in our bus
iness relations and halts progress.
"Constructive service is suggestive
of the rising sun, always aiming high
to do the most good. . Constructive
service causes the optimism of on
ward, it a business biulder, character
builder, is elevating.
"The constructive business organi
zations, that is why they hold the
prestige of their community

AMATEURS REFUSE
TO CLEAR PROBST
Holmes White Sox Star Still in
Bad With Association for
Delay in Making Apology
to Umpire Kocher.
By FRANK QUIGLEY.
The special meeting called by
President Isaacson of the Omaha
Amateur Baseball association di
rectors was a conundrum to most of
them and still remains an unsolved
puzzle.
At a prior meeting held last Mon
day night the directors voted to sus
pend Bernard Probst, warm corner
agent for the Holmes Whtie Sox, be
cause he failed to follow out their in
structions and apologize to Umpire
Kocher before he participated in any
games coming under the jurisdiction
of the Omaha Amateur Baseball asso
ciation and pay into the treasury of
said association the sum of $1.
Many of the directors at the time
the above motion was approved were
opposed to such a mild remedy, but
finally consented to withdraw their
objections because it was Probst's
first offense. Ernie Holmes, backer
of the Holmes White Sox, of which
Probst is a member was present at
the meeting and thanked the directors
for the leniency extended to Probst.
Fails to Pay Fine.
Notwithstanding the mild punish
ment handed to Probst he failed to
do as requested, but committed an
other violation when he participated
in the Holmes-DeVol Victor game
staged last Sunday. He was skating
on thin ice and he knew the danger,
so the directors decided to let the
ice break and drown Probst's base
ball aspirations for the balance of the
season. Ernie Holmes was present
at the meeting during which Probst
was given the hardware and although
he kicked strenuously against the ac
tion taken by them, the directca
turned a deaf ear to his plea and
would not rehear the case.
The writer introduced a motion to
allow Probst three more days to com
ply with the wishes of the directors,
but a second was not delivered. When
the directors were absolutely fire-,
proof on this proposition it was pre
posterous for President Isaacson to
call a meeting last night, when he
absolutely knew the outcome would
be the same.
No Apology Yet.
President Isaacson said the reason
he called the meeting was at the re
quest of Ernie Holmes, because
Holmes thought if the directors had
utilized some deliberation and had
not acted so hastly their decision
would have been different.
Umpire Louis Kocher declared that
Probst had not apologized to date.
If he wanted the directors to recon
sider their action why did he not
apologize to Kocher since the decision
made by the directors last Monday
night? .
Ernie Holmes . was called to the
front and he stated that Probst was
unlucky on account of several close
decisions going against him the day
he plastered Umpire Kocher, but be
cause he was always a real gentle
man on the diamond outside of per
petrating this one offense, when he
lost his temper, he would consider it
a personal tavor it the directors
would reinstate Probst.
Rehearing Refused.
Probst said he would apologize if
afforded another opportunity. Frank
Qingley made a motion to rehear the
case and William Blczies seconded it
and the two-thirds majority necessary
to renear tne case was not zonncom-
ing. Skupa, a member of the Sample
Harts' was allowed to play with the
Krajicek's and be prohibited from
playing class C ball for the rest of the
season. A motion was made to 'ad
journ, seconded and the directors
waltzed homeward.
