Recall- Ing the charges of the violation of the treaties and the law of nations made Bgainst Germany in the earlier days of the war the Anzeiger continues: “The breach of diplomatic relations with the United States probably will be made again the occasion for lev- eling against us charges of breaking treaties and international law in order to mobilize the indignation of the whole world against our ‘shameful acts.’” It is therefore not at all an act of superrogation to point out now, while the deed is still fresh, that the United States, simultaneously with the breach of relations, has been guilty of an unjustified breach of treaty in con- fiscating German property contrary to treaties between them and Germany and condemning German subjects whose profession, in the words of clause twenty-three of the treaty of 1799, serves the sustenance of the general weal of humanity, to compul- sory detention: This in spite of the fact that the city article prohibits any molestation of German subjects in the United States in the case of war. “If treaties are thus trodden under foot after a breach of diplomatic re- lations, when President Wilson’s phrase that Americans are sincere friends of the German nation is still resounding, what have we to expect if the contingency for which we must be prepared arrives and war breaks out? If we cannot prevent a breach of treaty we must at least call attention clewrly, openly and immediately to the fact that the United States govern- ment has violated the treaty of 1799 and general principles of laws of na- tions before Germany has undertak- en anything which could give the slightest shadow of a pretext for such an action.” ——————————————————— OPEN NOSTRILS!

The New York automobils show proved this to be so because there were more six cylinder cars than of any other type. This year there are fours, sixes, eights and twelves and while the multiples may be said to have made & gain here and there the laur- els really go to the sixes. Here in New Britain there is a staunch advo- cate of the 8ix cylinder engine, Fred A. Law, vice president of the Eastern Motors, Inc., builders of the Charter Oak six, the car that from cooler to tail light is different. Mr. Law, be- ing a practical engine and car builder as well as an enginner of the highest repute, believes that six cylinders are plenty. It is quite natural that he he should use:this number jin the Charter Oak, his laeest handiwork. The season of 1917 is conspicuous umong other things for high engine speeds. In these it cap hardly be said that Mr. Law’believes. His idea of an engine is one that operates at a moderate crankshaft speed, is free from vibration, flexible, sensitive to throttle and quick to accelerate and drive the car up the hardest hills without labor. Som~2 cars perform nicely on the level but when it comes to grades they are lost, not altogether because of the gear ratio employed for the general tendency at this time is to 'make it lower and speed wp the engine but because the motor does not have the necessary stamina to perform under these conditions. The Charter Oak six cylinder engine is one in which moderate speed prevails. There i$ no pronounced gear reduc- tion because it is unnecessary. It is sufficiently low to permit of pleasing all around performance. Mr. Law has not found it necessary to use a low reduction simply because the en gine, strictly speaking, is not one of-! the advanced high speed type. are some engineers who hold 2,000 revolutions per minutes crankshaft is conducive to the best results. They have never seen the Charter Oak, but when they do their eyes will opeén. High engine speed means, of course, increasing wear since it stands to reason reciprocat- ing parts that operate twice as fast' as formerly ought to wear out sooner. It is a common belief in well informed circles a year or two more will prove the inadequacy of such units. There is no guess work about the Charter Oak engine. It is a tried and true proposition and does all a car owner expects it to do. Mr. Law has achieved in his latest engine what other engineers have strived for bui, not quite attained. Once convinced the .engine was correct he turned at- tention to body,design.fully. convinc of the part played by body equip- ment at this time. The body is really the big factor in sell'ng a car today because the buyer knews practically all cars are reliable mechanically. The Charter Oak body differs from cthers in various respects. Here again has Mr. Law produced something out of the ordinary and the result is most pleasing: There is symmetry of line, a certain dash and poise not to be found in other cars certain to make an irresistable appeal to the car buyer of today. Comfort has been fully considered and the man who has owned other cars and finally seats himself in the Charter Oak will appreciate that there before him is something he has always wanted and never quite realized.

T ————————r———— DOESN'T COST MUCH TO TRY IT ANYWAY Tells how to take sorencss corn and lift it right out. Hospital records show that every time you cut a corn vou invite lock- jaw or blood poison, which is needle: says a Cincinnati authority, who tells you that a quarter ounce of a drug called freezone can be obtained at lit- tle cost from the drug store but is sufficient to rld one's feet of every hard or soft corn or callous. You s v ¢+ a few drops of this on aching corn and the soreness instantly relieved. Short- 1y the entire corn can be lifted out, root and all, without pain, This drug is sticky but dries at once and is claimed to just shrivel up any corn without inflaming or even irritating the surrounding tissue or skin.
