Cheered the Crews.
The spectacle ashore and afloat

and to points of advantage, cheering
the victors as did the crews of the
Fearless which was in the Helgoland
fight and other vessels.
"Interviews with the crew of the
Undaunted show that this vessel to

destroyers, left Harwich early Satur
day morning and sighted the Ger

the odds bravely. With her big guns
the Undaunted opened fire at a range
of five miles. The smaller vessels
closed in and became busy.
In Running Fight.
“Then began a running fight. While
the cruiser, protected from torpedoes
by her fighting consorts, devoted her
attention particularly to two of the
enemy’s ships, the destroyers attacked
the other two. The reply from the
Germans was very poor in compari
son. The first of the enemy's craft
sank after a half hour's fighting.
Within an hour and a half the battle
was over.”

VITAL POINT IS
COTTON CRISIS
If Beneficial Result to Come
From Englishmen’s Visit,
Plan Must be Worked Out for
Surplus Crop.
Washington. Administration offi
cials today were hopeful that normal
conditions in the matter of foreign
exchange transactions between the
United States and Great Britain
be restored as the result of the con
ferences that have been begun be
tween Sir George Paish. special advis
er to the British chancellor of the
exchequer; B. B. Blackett, of the Eng
lish treasury; Secretary McAdoo and
the federal reserve board.
Although no definite plans thus far
have been taken up with the English
men, it is said that Mr. McAdoo and
the reserve board members feel that
the cotton situation Is the vital point
In the matter and that if Sir George’s
visit here is to be productive of any
beneficial result some plan must he
worked out by which the surplus crop
will be cared for and manufacturers
induced to buy cotton.
Sir George, it is stated, has not been
authorised to agree to any plan but
must return to England and lay be
fore the cabinet any proposal that Is
made, or communicate with his gov
ernment regarding acceptance of It.
It is said he came here to hear sug
gestions from the United States gov
ernment in regard to meeting Ameri
can debts to English merchants. It
Is thought, likely the matter of re
opening the New York and London
Stock Exchanges will be considered
during the conferences.

WHITE MOTOR TRUCKS
Are the Nation’s Choice
BOTH IN THE QUANTITY OF TRUCKS SOLD AND
IN THE VALUE OF TRUCK SALES, WE ARE
THE LARGEST MANUFACTURERS OF COMMER
CIAL MOTOR VEHICLES IN AMERICA.
Official Records of the Motor Truck Industry Verify This Statement
This Leadership of the Truck Industry is of the utmost import
ance, both to the many who already own White Trucks, and to
the many others who will eventually purchase White Trucks.
TO THE OWNERS OF
WHITE TRUCKS
THIS LEADERSHIP proves the
correctness of your judgment in
selecting your motor truck
equipment.
It shows that you have chosen
the same motor truck that the
majority of truck users iu America
have selected.
In practically every case, this selection
has been the result of a process of rigid
experimentation and elimination, in which
White Trucks have proved their superiority
over all Olliers.
This preference for White Trucks by the
largest users of motor trucks as well as by
the majority of motor truck users guarantees
that your investment is protected by a suc
cessful, well established manufacturer,
having a superior organization for rendering
Jiermancnt and ellieient service during the
ife-time of the trucks.
WHITE TRUCKS ARE MOST ECONOMICAL TO OWN
That While Trucks are slightly higher in price, makes While leadership in the truck
industry even more complete. It is plain evidence that White construction is so
superior that the higher first cost of a White Truck is economy in the long run—
proof that White Trucks last longer and cost less to operate and maintain, making
them the most economical trucks to own.

ing for recognition, indisputable supremacy
can be gained only by superior merit.
Untruthful advertising, bargain prices,
exaggerated claims and guarantees that can
not be fulfilled may make the iirst sale, but
only superior merit can ereate the confidence
which brings continuous repeat orders.
The record of continuous repeat orders
whereby the foremost firms in America have
acquired huge fleets of White Trucks, after
experimenting with other makes, is a
convincing reason why you should use
White Trucks.
