CANDLE ALL EGGS,
SAYS FOOD DEPUTY
Dealer.-. !
Otto Murchel Warn3
That State Will Demand More
Care in Their Sale From
This Time On.
(From a Staff Corrrjpoml-iit )
Lincoln, Xeb., Aug. 18. (Special.)
Thirty-three dealers in rps must
appear before the state department of
pure foods within two weeks and show
cause vhy they should not be fined
for not observing rules of the- food
department regarding handling of
tggs.
"I am not going to start a cam
paign of persecution." said State Com
missioner Murchel thi morning to
The Bee, "but I will prosecute these
men, or any other men, who persist in
being careless in handling eggs."
Two government officials were here
fast week and assured the -food com
missioner he would have co-operation
of the government in prosecuting his
campaign for purer eggs.
Carelessness in handling eggs and
failure of many dealers to candle them
is leading to the palming ofT on the
public of eggs of "careless habits,"
and a campaign of education will be
followed by the food commissioner.

Some Cars Already Increased
Up to Hudson Prices. Money
Fifty-one makers have already increased their
prices since January 1st.
Former $1200 and $1400 cars now cost $300 to
$400 more than they did one month ago. Some cars
advanced January 1st, which again increased in price
August 1st.
In the higher priced classes increases since Der
cember amount to $350 to $700.
' Many makers have made two advances within
the past eight months. Others give warning of fur
ther advances.
The Hudson Super-Sixes sell at the same price
that they have sold at since last December.
Increasing cost of materials is responsible for
higher prices in automobiles. It is affecting all mak
ers. Soon Hudsons, too, must cost more. Today Hud
sons are sold at the some price at which they have
sold for several months because they are built from
materials contracted for last fall. Then material
prices were lower. Increase's have been rapid since
then.
Steel, the most largely used material in an auto
mobile, is mad6 from iron and its piiice is affected by
iron prices. Last December iron sold at $30 a tont
Its average price for 25 years pripr to the war was $16
a ton. Today it is $54 a ton.
Hudson Was the Choice
t When Others Cost Less
When cars in the lower priced grades sold at
$200 to $300 less than a Hudson Super-Six, Hudson
sales were greater than any other two makes of that
class. Today with no difference in price, Hudsons
must continue to be even more popular.
Hudson leadership is understood by all motor
ists. It is explained in the Hudson Super-Six motor.
No other car has a motor similar to the Super-Six. No
other car for that reason has equaled the perform

HUGE PROFITS GO

George Coupland Telegraphs
Council of Defense Wrath of
Country Rising Against
Them.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 18. (Special.)
Vice Chairman Coupland' of the
State Council of Defense, who is in
Chicago atending teh conference of
coal men, telegraphed Chairman Joyce
that deliberations thus far have re
vealed beyond question that operators
are asking "righteous and exorbitant"
prices at the mines.
Mr. Coupland says the sentiment of
the delegates seams unanimous in fa
vor of production and distribution
prices. He says there is such anxiety
as to a probable shortage of needed
supplies in the non coal producing
states like Nebraska, when winter
comes.
The president and federal authori
ties have asked for quick action to
help solve the. coal problem and the
wrath of all is . especially directed
against the mine operators alhtough
retailers are strongly condemned.
Violators of Reed Law
Draw Six Months' Sentence
Violation of the Reed amendment,
the new federal law which prohibits
bringing liquor into a "dry" state in
any way or for any use, is a serious
offense, as George Trybunowski and
Steve Gadodnowski found this morn
ing before Federal Judge Woodrough.
They pleaded guilty under the im
pression that they would get off with
a fine. Instead they heard a sentence
of six months in the county jail for
each of them. Their attorneys then
"got busy" and had them withdraw
their olea of guilty, which the judge
allowed them to do because of a cer
tain stipulation before they pleaded
guilty. They will stand trial before
a federal jury.
The liquor, which they brought
here from St. Joseph, was contained
in square gallon cans carried in a
suit case. They live on the South
Side.
Clifford McCormick, a young rail
road messenger, who brought liquor
here from St. Paul, Minn., pleaded
cuiltv. and Judge Woodrough sus

Bring $1200 and
Can Be Saved By
No automobile has yet been able to equal in
either direction the transcontinental record of a sev
, en-passenger Super-Six Phaeton which traveled from
San Francisco to New York and back to San Fran
cisco in 10 days and 21 hours. No conceivable test
has revealed the limits of a Hudson-Super-Six stock
car or stock chassis.
No individual use of the car has yet taxed it to
its limit.
Hudson Sets New Records
on the Speedway
The speedway, too, has failed to exhaust Hud
son Super-Six endurance. The special racing cars
built to meet those conditions, but' preserving the
same principle that accounts for endurance in the -stock
cars, did not reach the limit of Hudson endur
ance. They did establish the American Speedway
record for 200 miles at an average speed of 104 miles
an hour. JThe Hudson Super-Six racers made more
records in their campaign of racing than any team of
cars the industry has produced.
These records are made only to indicate what
you may expect from a Hudson Super-Six. You don't
want a racing car. The car you buy isn't suitable for
racing. It is made suitable for the kind of service
you want. That service means endurance the kind
that does not call for frequent adjustments, repairs
and overhauling. It is the kind of car that you can
use clay after day and month after month with a re
liance as to its performance that increases only as you
continue its use.
y Just Now Hudsons
Cost Less
During this time when prices are being read
justed on account of increased cost of production,
you can buy a Hudson Super-Six at the same priceN
you pay for former cheaper cars. If you wait, you
run the risk of not being able to get such an advan
tageous price. When present material supplies arev
exhausted and cars must be built from material
bought in the present market, then the Hudson Super
Six must be priced in comparison to its greater value
and greater cost on the standard established by
other cars.
