Osterhaus dresses Officers’ Association. at Annual Meeting. Expla that there is “an under- current of feeling that the Navy looks mn the reserve as an unwelcome step- d, and, therefore is not sympathetic and even neglectful,” Capt. Hugo W. Osterhaus, in charge of the Naval Reserve Section of the Bureau of Navi- gation, Navy Department, addressing the annual meeting of the United States Naval Reserve Officers’ Association at the Willard Hotel last night, denied this situation exists in reality. “I am happy to be able to emphati- eally refute view and to State that 4t appears to be held by an increasingly small minority of reservists.” Capt. Osterhaus asserted. “But, on the other hand, the Navy Department must have the fullest co- wtv«lnn and assistance from the Naval e orgenization, and when deci- sions are made that do not conform with the wishes of a certain unit or community, it must be realized that we here in the bureau who have to make the final decisions, do so with the best interests of the Reserve as a whole at Included in the list of officials partici- 'was Capt.

' By the Associated Press. | CHICAGO, January 17.—Praise for the recent expression of Pope Pius XI, was voiced yesterday by mem- bers of the commission on marriage, divorce and ‘remarriage of the Pres- byterian Church. | The members also heard the liberal views of present-day college women as related by Mrs. Charles K. Roys, Dean of Wells College at Aurora, N. Y. Dr. Ralph M. Davis, chairman of the commission and paster of the Church of the Convenant, Erle, Pa., was first to laud the Pope's encyclical. He termed it a step in “the conservative swing back to stable foundations.” Mrs. Roys said a seminar at Wells College had shown her that all the consulted group would marry expecting to have children but that all approved of limiting and spacing children ac- cording to health, income and other conditions. The girls deemed physical examinations necessary before marriage; were willing to supplement family in- come by holding a job: favored uniform divorce laws; and considered that child- ren would act as a deterrent to a couple contempating separation.

[ —not the feature of a season but the future of an industry NFORMED automotive engineers knew the whole future of the motor car was affected when Studebaker successfully introduced Free Wheeling with positive gear control on July 10, 1930. These men spend their lifetimes designing the automo- biles of America and Europe. They recognized at once that Free Wheeling, as presented by Studebaker, solved a problem as old as motoring — the problem of controlling momentum and putting it to work. They knew that Free Wheeling, as Studebaker offered it, went straight to the root of applied dynamics — giving the car that offered it a superiority which no car without it could contest. That is why you are hearing so much more about Free Wheeling today than you did when Studebaker first in- troduced it. If all cars had it now, the American motoring public would save hundreds of millions of dollars in gas- oline and oil expense every year. The results of Free Wheeling have become at once the goal and despair of the major part of the motor car industry. They are results that have brought Studebaker thor. oughness and Studebaker initiative into the limelight more conspicuously than ever. Today every Studebaker gives you this new engineering essential that all cars will be aspiring to give you tomor- row —a pleasurable new sensation of freedom of move- ment— 10,000 miles of travel for 8,000 miles of engine effort —greatly reduced operation and maintenance cost—new safety—new ease of driving. It means much that these cars come to you with the greatest engineering advancement since the electric starter. But it means even more that they bear the name of Stude- baker, distinguished in transportation for more than half - the lifetime of the American nation. g Studebaker cars are priced f. 0. b. factory from $795 to $2600 STUDEBAKER Builder of Champions Have Your Photograph Taken In Our Portrait Studio Photograph 11x14 Inches (Almost half the size of this emtire mewspaper page) 51 00 You Don’t Have to Take More Than One REALLY lovely large studio portrait of yourself, your youngster . . . or any member of your family . for $1.00 while this special offer lasts!
