FRENCH SOCIALISTS SUPPORT SUFFRAGE Votes for Women and Sup- pression of Paris Senate Are Urged. By the Assoclated Press. PARIS, December 30.—Votes for | women and suppresion of the Senate were the main constructive and de- structive ideas embodied in a resolu- tion adopted at the close of the Na- tional Soclalist Congress last evening. A modified version of a capital levy, under the name of a “tax on wealt was undertaken as a pledge if the So- cialists prove victorious in the May elections. Another resolution, adopted after iscussion de- s ¥ as “neither hite, neither communistic nor moderate.” The delegates left the convention a little chagrined be- cause the leaders declined to take a definite stand on the party's attitude. i | #®).—Ownership of the Ritz D. C. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1927, The congress decided that the party should put forward candidates for every office in France, but if over- whelmingly defeated on the first bal- lot, they would be free to assist the Communists of the extreme left, mod- erates or other radicals, depending on local conditions. Practical abandonment of the cap- ital levy, which was one of the main planks of the party's 1924 platform, was probably the most Important act of the congress. The substituted “tax on wealth,” however, s considered to be a rather elastic term offering many interpretations. The congress definitely refrained from challenging the Poincare govern- ment, timidity replacing the temerity which was evident in 1924, RITZ-CARLTON SOLD.

You will be satisfied and delighted with every detail of its equipment and performance. You will be amazed when you learn how low is the price. For Willys-Overland resources and equipment are now such that no car of equal quality can be built and sold at costs. The factory service cost on the Whippet has been the lowest of any car we ever built. Asa result, we have been able to minimize materially the usual al- a lower price. Greatly Increased Facilities Within its class, we believe, no car combines so many advantages—offers such remarkable value. To make it possible, our plans have included major revisions in factory equipment—a new body plant doubling our capacity—the addition of new depart- ments—the installation of new and highly perfected machinery—and notable economies in production lowances for service costs — another contributing factor to the lowered price of the 1928 Whippet. Present light car standards are a tribute to the pioneer- ing the Whippet has done. Four-wheel brakes — lower center of gravity —greater economy —greater roomi- ness—quieter engines—faster speed and pick-up — great / ( loans during the year will reach the record volume of $1,680,000,000.

Marshal Field Museum Shows Strange Objects From Madagascar. CHICAGO, December 30 ().—The first exhibition of art objects illus- trating cultures of the various Mada- gascar tribes was opened at the Field Museum today. On display were jewelry of silver and brass, wood carvings, cloaks, shawls and mosquito nets, woven from wild silk, fibers and the inner bark of trees, artistically colored by native dyeing processes; snuff bottles and daggers. Dr. Ralph Linton, as- sistant curator of Malayan ethnology, gathered the exhibits. beauty—no one today would think of buying a car that had not made these advances. Many Added Features Among the many things you will like in the 1928 Whippet are improved bodies in a wide variety of beautiful colors, and fitted with cadet-type visor, full crown fenders, an engine that doubles its rated horse-power, full pressure lubrication, silent timing chain, gasoline tank in rear, long, semi-elliptic springs, oversize balloon tires and snubbers, an adjustable steering wheel, automatic windshield wiper, rear view mirror and stop light. Holds Remarkable Records . Owners have driven and tested the Whippet for more than five hundred million miles. It has estab- lished record after record in proof of its superiority. It holds the A. A. A. Coast - to - Coast economy record, averaging 43.28 miles to the gallon. In a Engineering Leadership In January, 1927 we made this prediction: “4-wheel brakes will be standard equipment on all cars, regurdless of size, within the next 18 months.” In spite of this statement two and one-half million pur- chasers have since bought cars having only two-wheel brakes. These cars are now being rendered obsolete in point of bruke equipment by changes on the part of manufacturers who had not yet sensed the coming trend. Whlp?let standardized on four-wheel brakes more than a year shead of other light cars, and yet four-wheel brakes are only one feature of Whippet's advanced design today! WILLYS-OVERLAND, INC. TOLEDO, OHIO pational economy test 5,508 owners averaged 38 miles to the gallon. Whippet established a record ‘of 71.6 miles an hour in a speed test on Rocking- ham Park Speedway. It accel- erates from 5 to 30 miles in 11.5 seconds; turns in a 17- foot radius, and parks in- 14 feet of curb space. We suggest you see the Whippet and get the new next Friday. Examine maully. Compare it with any other car. Then ask about the easy plan to pay for it out of your income.
