<3urTey no car has ever equaled the Essex
in the v?ay it has been indorsed by the public
From the very first it has been advertised
just as we said it would be, by what people
Wad to Say for it.
You remeber we announced the Essex
would have to speak for its self. Its fate
was left with the people. And now you can
judge what the verdict has been.
ONE HUNDRED OWNERS
ADDED DAILY
Deliveries at this writing exceed 10.000
carB. An average of 100 new buyers are get
ting Essex ears every day.
Such a production would bo large for many
older organizations. Rut it is not half equal
to the demand for the Essex.
SWEDEN ORDERED 5 THEN
CABELED FOR 75
The first shipment of Essex cars reached
Sweden a few days ago. The initial order
was five. But on the day they were unloaded
the dealer eaiheled for 75 to - ha sbippel im-
■MXjiatly.
• That is significant for Sweden isone of the
countries where gasoline costs nearly a dollar
a. gollon. Even before the war Europea*
countries did not take readily to American
cart. Only the light, small, inexpensive cars
had a market then.
Cost of operation was the big item. Gas
oline and oil prices made large ears imprac
tical.-
But the Essex just met tlje need. It has
the sturdiness and dependability Euroqean
had never attributed 1 to moderate priced
American ears. The Essex met their demand
for economy and low operating coot
AND THOSE ADVANTAGES
ARE IMPORTANT HERE
'Americans rather than put pp with the
eustonigry objections of low priced cars,
J. P. & L. G.
more willingly paid the price that obtained
the degree of elegance, comfort and perform
ance they wanted.
But the Essex seems to have filled the need
mand for moderate first cost. It meets the
as we expecte/ it would. It answers the de-
inexpensive cost and maintenance situation
and, of course, it gratifies the taste in appear
ance and performance.
HOW EVERYONE TALKS
FOR THE ESSEX
They tell their friends what they have
learned about it.
Any dealer can tell you of person after per
son who has placed orders with him as the
result of a ride they have had with some
friend. As a test of how it stands in the
opinion of motorists in general, or even the
man in the street, mention the Essex any
where you might be in such a way as to pro
voke a discussion of it.
The result will he interesting. You aren’t
likely to hear a single adverse criticism. But
you will probably conclude everyone is inter
ested in selling you an Essex.
THIS ns THE ESSEX
SELLING FORCE
Tt is jnst wbat yon will hear from any
group of motorists. Everyone seems bent on
telling everyone else what a fine car the
Essex is. "
Note the manner in which they praise it.
People judge it in comparison with other cars
of merit that they know.
That probably explains why Esse.x perform
ance and quality is compared to large, high
priced automobiles. ,
There is no other measure by which Essex
can be described —~
When will you take vour ride in an Essex ?
Your enthusiasm will he as great as it now
is with close to a million others.
Essex boosters grow daily—and thus they
swell Essex sales.

HOUSE PRAISES HOLDER
Atlanta; <Ja. Aug. 21—While the
Georgia House of Representatives
were (more heavily burdened with
business than any legislative body
of recent years,the members took
time, befor adjournment, to pay
tribute to speaker John N. Holder
Resoluions were unanimously ad
opted, resolutions of the highest
praise for his faithfulness in his
rulings and the patient moderation
and courtesy shown tothe members
of the house in the heat of debate.
With the good wishes of 1 the
house, the hope was expressed that
11 he will be spared by a kind prov
idence to return to his duties as
speaker at the next session, and
after that be promoted to a ph4i-
tion of much higher honor, where
he will he enabled' to render
much greatr and broader service
of usefulness to his pople and to
his stale whom he has served’‘so
long and so well.”
As if, is generally known, Spea
ker Hjlder is a candidate for gov :
ernor and the resolutions are prac
tically an endorsement by the
house of his candidacy. Mr Holder
lives at Jefferson, Ga., where he
edits the Herald, one of Georgians
brightest weekly newspapers. He
has served as speaker of the house
for seven years and is one of the
best krrown men in the state.
Alto Daman* Nationalization of Othor
Industries, Following Example of
Russian 6ovl«t%
Washington.—It Is just three year*
since the four lenders of the railway
brotherhoods, having refused arbitra
tion of their demands, snt In the gal
lery of the United States Ben&te and
held their watches on the Senator*
while the memorable vote wa* being
taken on the Adamson Law that gave
them $60,000,000 additional wages a
year. When the vote was counted and
announced the four labor chiefs rushed
out to the telegraph office and with
drew the order for a nation-wide
strike.
That such n scene may be again en
acted on n much greater scnle Is Indi
cated by the startling developments
at the nation’s capital in the past few
days. Now the 330,000 men in the
brotherhoods have been joined by
nu rp than a million other railroad
worliers— shopmen, trackmen, tele
graphers. clerks, station agents—and
the demands are many times what
they were three years ago.
A Thoucand Million Dollars.
On top of a thousand million dollars
of added wages granted by the Gov
ernment In the past year and n half,
the allied workers are asking for an
other Increase of a thousand million
dollars.
But move than tills, this great body
of railroad employees has served an
ultimatum on the Government that all
1 the rhili’oads of the country must he
taken away from their owners and
turned over to the employees to he op
erated by them on a communistic
proflt-shnring plan.
The plan 1* as daring ns any con
ceived. hy the Russian Bolshevists, and
behind it Is the threat of a nation-wide
strike, with the leaders of the men sit
ting in the Senate gallery, watches in
hand; counting the vote.
To Tlo Up All Transportation.
“We will tie up the railroads so that
they will never rnn again if we do not
get what we want/’ announced one, of
the labor spokesmen, standing within
a stone's throw of the Capitol, and
this amazing announcement, like an
ultimatum from a lender qf, the
elan Soviet, was instantly flashed ove£
the telegraph wires to every part of
the country.
Since the first Brotherhood bomb
shell exploded In Washington at the
end of July, the fact has leaked out
that the brotherhoods are gathering
a propaganda fund of $10,000,000 for'
on intensive drive on Congress. Three
mill Ion dollars, It i* announced, has
already been collected from the mem,-
bers of the unions. This will be used in
campaign work In the Congressional
district*, with the purpose of enlist
ing the votes of the members of
Congress, or of defeating them fofr
re-election If they do not vote as the
brotherhoods dictate. Money will also
be lavishly spent, It. Is stated, In send
ing speakers throughout the country
to stir up the enthusiasm"Otf organlEed
labor for the brotherhood p(Ian
communistic rnllropd operation.
“Nationalizing” All Industry
“If w.e don't get what we want ont
of this Congress we will put this
Congress out and put another one in
that will give us what wq want,” is
the matter-of-fact announcement of
the central propaganda office of the
brotherhoods in Washington.
Back of the Immediate purpose to
gain control of the railroads Is an
even deeper scheme to gain control of
all great Industrie*, taking them from
their owner* and putting them under
the direct management of the organis
ed workers, as has been done In Riuh
sla, and as they are attempting te do
In Germany and Austria.
The reports ©f the United State*
Railroad administration show that tfte
Government, since It took over the
roads In December, 1017; has Increased
railroad wage* by considerably more
than a thousand million dollar*, and
fcbout $500,000,000 a year is being tak
en out of the National Treasury to
meet the deficit caused by the great
Increase In labor cost.
Big Wage Increases.
The principal advances' In wages
have been: To shopmen, $300,000,000;
to unskilled labor; $225j000;(k)0'; to tbe
train brotherhoods, $200,000,000;
clerks, $125,000,000; to telegraph and
station agents, $100,000,000, to mis
cellaneous classes, $110,000,000.
All of these groups are now demand
ing additional increases of from 80 to
50 per cent. When the Government
took control of the roads the average
earnings of all railroud workers, In
cluding several hundred thousand un
skilled workers, was $1,000 a year. The
average is now more tbnn $1,500 and
the new demands would raise If. to
$2,000.
