NAME PLATES ARE PROVING POPULAR Nenno & Bock Reports Big Demand for Accessory to Automobile Scores of autoists who are getting their 1922 auto licenses are also going to advertise Anaheim and at the same time improve the appearance of their cars. Nenno & Bock report a big demand for their aluminum license plate holders with the Anaheim name plate attached. The plate holder adds much to the appearance of the car giving the license a finished appearance. The Anaheim name plate is in blue and white, the colors of the 1922 auto licenses. GERMANY PROPOSES BILLION-MARK LOAN BERLIN, Germany, Jan. 28.—Germany had entered on another year of raising taxes today, following the reichstag address of Chancellor Wirth, who sketched the plans of the republic. He proposed a loan of 1,000,000,000 marks, together with cancellation of one form of taxation and creation of three others. Witman, eyesight specialist. "Twenty miles per gallon of gasoline; 12,500 miles per set of tires; 50 per cent slower depreciation." These are just a few of the advantages of the Franklin car which Bob White is advertising to the man in the street with a car which he has fitted up especially for the purpose. The first fact may be ascertained by the prospective purchaser himself, with a quart milk bottle which White has put in plain view on the top of the hood. The bottle acts as container for the fluid, which is shut off from the main tank. Then all the driver has to do is keep going until the bottle is empty and read his speedometer. As a matter of fact, twenty-five gasoline tests showed a mileage of 25-28 miles per hour. The tire mileage record, which is a matter of car as well as tires, something that the inexperienced buyer doesn't always realize, also can be checked up by anybody. The only factor that can't be checked up is the human one, depending upon the way the car is driven and how it is cared for, and this factor is very subordinate. As for depreciation, the company has re-sale records back to 1915 and can prove its claims to the hilt. National averages tell the story. The aluminum is standard equipment and 3 POISON STILL TAKEN BY NEW YORK, JA poison stills where dein barrels labeled witand crossbones was t and sold as whiskey hands of the police t the first used exclusive utacture of poison liq York authorities h The stills discovered nition of alcohol fum set fire to a four story street. brings down the total car to 2445 pounds. higher price are with Extra equipment in aluminium disc which conforms to ideas of what unshould be.

Lemon St., Anaheim Phone 548 PENALTY FOR FALSE CAR DAMAGE CLAIM Motorists attempting to secure "easy money" by filing fraudulent insurance claims are going to run up against a very long arm of the law, according to officials of the Auto Club of So. Cal. An emphatic but kindly warning to all car owners has just been issued by the insurance department of the club, which also applies to all insurance companies of the state, that there is no use trying to get away with false claims on insurance because scores of detectives are to be employed in tracing such claims in the future. With the arrest of Robert Mandell at the headquarters of the Auto club in Los Angeles a case will be prosecuted which points out the seriousness of such an offense. In this case it is claimed that Mandell attempted to secure the cash equivalent of a nearly new tire by hiding an old tire, saying it was stolen. The penalty in a case of this kind, it is pointed out by the legal department, is a fine of $1000 or three years in the penitentiary. The slightest false claim may have most serious consequences. Motorists planning to file claims for losses should stick to the utter truth, according to the advice just issued. Every circumstance governing the filing of the claim, and the details from which it arises will always be investigated thoroughly and no loop-hole left open for securing "easy money" by false statements. Any car owner who thinks he can drive his car into the Mojave desert or elsewhere, burn it up and then get the insurance money for it will find this an impossibility. The same will hold true for the motorist who thinks he can "arrange" to have his car stolen by a friend and then get the theft insurance, because he needs cash, will run smack up against the law. FINDS HOARD OF LONG DEAD GERMAN PIRATE BERLIN, Jan. 27.—Herr Kiep, well-known archivist of Cuxhaven, near Hamburg, claims to have located a 500 year old pirate hoard—the famous "Stoertebecker Treasure"—and promises to lift it publicly in a few weeks. The story runs that Stoertebecker, a leading pirate who flourished at the end of the 14th century, buried treasure of immense value along the coast in the neighborhood of Cuxhaven, before the Hamburgers defeated him near Heliigoland and executed him at Hamburg in 1401 A.D. Many romances have been woven around the Stoertebecker treasure and many searches have been made for it. As Herr Kiep is a student and has not been suspected of insanity or ulterior motives, his story has aroused great interest. HIGHWAY FRANCHISE Responding to a resolution passed by the board of supervisors which opposed further granting of franchise to truck and stage lines until the tax on such franchises is made commensurate with the damage it is claimed the carriers cause to the highways, the state railroad commission in a letter which the board received today reiterated its stand, first voiced several weeks ago, that in acting upon earlers' applications for franchise it must be guided by the state law, which requires merely a showing of public necessity or convenience, and does not go into whether the franchise tax is adequate. Woman of 25 has fewer chances of living to be 50 than a man of the same age. There are still 10,000 American soldiers in the American occupied area on the Rhine.

They are the first used exclusively for the manufacture of poison liquor which New York authorities have discovered. The stills discovered themselves. Ignition of alcohol fumes by a gas jet set fire to a four story house on Cherry street. brings down the total weight of the car to 2445 pounds. Many cars of higher price are without this feature. Extra equipment includes a set of aluminum disc wheels of a type which conforms to the company's ideas of what unsprung weight should be. These wheels mean something in the life of the tires. Finally one of the latest developments of the makers is a process of case-hardening journals and crank shaft, an improvement which increases the life of all motor-bearings three times. The crank shaft will outwear any three ordinary crank shafts. Try Plain Dealer Want Ads.

RULES FOR '22 RUN TO YOSEMITE VALLEY Considerable favorable comment in motor car circles has followed the announcement by the management of Camp Curry of the rules that will govern the 1922 competition for the first automobile to enter the Yosemite valley this year. Only recently a committee of newspaper men, at the request of Mrs. D. A. Curry, drew up a set of rules which are to govern the award of the cup to the motor car which shall enter California's greatest national park first. When the cup is awarded under these rules, the motoring public can feel assured that the roads into the valley are passable for any skillful driver who owns a reliable, dependable motor car. The rules drawn up by the committee follow: The first car to travel under its own power over authorized roads into Yosemite valley in 1922, which shall check in at the ranger's station and at Camp Curry, shall be deemed winner of the Camp Curry cup. The following conditions, however, must have been complied with: The car must make the trip under its own power and over one of the following regular "authorized" motor car highways—the Coulterville road, the Big Oak Flat road, the Tioga road or the Wawona road. Any car going in over railroad ties or over any other than the authorized roads mentioned above shall be disqualified. The car shall be strictly stock. That it must be fully equipped and shall have top, fenders, running board and all regular equipment which is considered standard by the factory building that particular make of car. The car must run under its own power on its own wheels without adding any special equipment to slide over snow-covered sections of the highway. DEMOCRATS FIGHT ANTI-LYNCH BILL WASHINGTON, Jan. 27—Enactment of the anti-lynching bill, approved by the house yesterday by a 230-to-119 vote, probably will be long delayed. No measure in recent years has so aroused the Southern Democrats, and they are prepared to fight it to the last ditch. With the Democratic strength proportionately greater in the senate than in the house, they are very certain to be able to delay it for several months. PRIEST SURPRISES ROBBERS CHICAGO, Jan. 27—Rev. Frank Chodnihwicz today proved himself to be the "fighting padre" of his parish. The priest, who is 50 years of age, surprised robbers at the work of looting St. Florence church when he entered the institution, of which he is pastor, this morning. Rushing forward he gave battle to the bandits, two of whom opened fire on him with revolvers. Braving the bullets the priest closed with the robbers, who fired, leaving their loot behind them. All obstacles must be overcome by the car under its own power; but use of block and tackle is permissible at dangerous points. Cars must be officially checked out of the city from which the original start is made and must be officially checked in at the ranger's station and at Camp Curry. Representatives of the newspapers or Western Union or Postal Telegraph Co. officials shall be deemed acceptable as checkers. The number of the crew with the car shall be limited to the seating capacity of the model used. For example, a seven-passenger touring car, seven in the crew is the limit; a three-passenger coupe, three in the crew is the limit, etc. If it's from Witman's it's good. Mighty and Shall Prevail The popularity of Studebaker Cars is attested by the corporation enjoyed the biggest business the year of 1921.
