NEW STUDEBAKER 6 JOY TO THE EYES
A joy to the eyes is the new 1922 Model Big 6 Studebaker touring car, which arrived this week at the showrooms of Harry D. Riley. No car or model perhaps that the company ever has put on is more beautiful in line or finer in mechanism than this.
New features include a disc clutch instead of a cone clutch, cowl ventilator and steering knuckles and arms set in Timken bearings. The body lines are more symmetrical and attractive than ever, with a so-called two bevel instead of single-bevel edge and other improvements. The windshield is of one piece instead of two pieces. Previous refinements of interior and exterior have been a little further refined. Cushions are heavier, and the instrument board shows still greater refinement in the arrangement of the instruments and the finish of them. A courtesy lamp has been added, placed just above the running boards to show the car's position to passing drivers. The manifold has been improved so as to increase still more the mileage per gallon of gasoline. The small tools are carried in a compartment behind one of the doors, and one key fits this lock as well as ignition and transmission.
For those who prefer the Small 6 or Medium 6 these types still are available, and also compare well with their predecessors.
AGREEMENT ON SHANTUNG
WASHINGTON, Jan 28.—Japanese and Chinese delegates are understood to have reached practical agreement on the Shantung question. Dr. Chung Hui Wang, of the three delegates of China, is quoted as saying that the question was virtually settled now. A Chinese will be managing director. Payment by the Chinese to the Japanese will be in the form of fifteen treasury notes in annual installments with an option to redeem all notes at any time after five years hence.
MOVIE PEOPLE WORK FOR GOOD ROADS
Do movie stars take an active interest in the motoring welfare of So Cal?
Officials of the Auto Club of So Cal. rise up to remark that the motion picture industry as a whole is one of the most loyal supporters of the welfare of autoing facilities.
Movie fans will be delighted to learn that practically all of their favorites are united with the Auto Club in a determined effort to boost good roads throughout the southern part of the state, fair motor laws and the lessening of accidents.
Among the most famous players who are members of the big organization, and thereby signifying their allegiance to motoring interests are Wallace Reid, Pauline Fredericks, Nazimova, Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford, Charles Chaplin, Gloria Swanson, Viola Dana, Antonio Moreno, Herbert Rawlinson, Prisilla Dean, Rudolph Valentino, Betty Compson and Erick Von Stroheim.
Even some of the stars who make a great majority of their pictures in the east, and who only visit California for a few days or weeks out of the year, keep up their club memberships from year to year. Among these are Elsie Ferguson, Norma and Constance Talmadge, Richard Bartholomew and Elaine Hammerstein.
EXPORTS OF GRAIN ARE INCREASING
Grain from American farms went abroad in greater volume, during 1921, than during 1920. The amount of corn exported last year was 700 per cent greater than in the previous year. It is explained that Europe is buying grain from this country instead of from Argentina. And corn is wanted overseas for distilling and is also wanted, in Northern Europe, to feed hogs. Corn experts last year were valued at $93,000,000. Wheat exports were greater than in 1920; flour, rice and cotton also were shipped abroad in increased quantities.
As Europe gets back upon its economic feet, the demand for American farm products undoubtedly will increase notably as Europe is

As Europe gets back upon its economic feet, the demand for American farm products undoubtedly will increase notably. As soon as Europe is able to pay for better living, it will live better. Inasmuch as Europe at its best, agriculturally, cannot produce all that its people consume, it follows that the American farmer will have an expanding foreign market for his cereals.
American fruits, too, should be in greater demand, across the Atlantic, when the average family purse in Europe becomes a bit more corpulent. This means that California's orchard products will have a market outlet, for in fruits as well as in grains, Europe cannot fully supply itself.

J. E. WALTER CO. HAS CHANDLER AGENCY
The coming of the incomparable new models of the Chandler and Cleveland to Anaheim and northern Orange county is also marked by their advent into the home of their new dealer here, the J. E. Walter Co. The J. E. Walter Co. is one of the most firmly established organizations in the county and if previous sales records can be taken as a criterion, it is safe to say that with the Chandler and Cleveland models, backed by past years of reliable performance and the way to a successful future paved with a product that is conceded to be fully one hundred per cent better than that of the past, the sales list of the coming twelve months will tower far above all others.
Elaborate preparations have been made for the coming of the 1922 Chandler and Cleveland. The sales rooms have been redecorated and additional furniture installed. The sales and executive forces have also been strengthened, and although motordom heralds the new designs as the acme of refinement and beauty, they will be furnished a suitable abode in Anaheim.
In speaking of the new Cleveland, Mr. Walter says:
"Never before has such fine quality, refreshing beauty, sparkling performance, satisfying comfort and exceptional quality been combined in a car at a price so incredibly low. The new style and advance mechanical construction stands out more dominantly above competition than can be classified by the price."

TIME TO OVERHAUL FOR SPRING SEASON
"In the overhauling of automobiles preparatory to their usual increased use during the spring and summer months," said C. F. Cox of the Anaheim Auto Works, "attention is devoted mainly to the motor, brakes and other vital parts of the machine. This is only natural, in view of the absolute importance of having these parts in perfect condition, but the motorist should not neglect the body of his car, nor its top as is so often the case. Both frequently require rebuilding, having experienced rough usage during the winter months, and they should receive the same attention as the motor and the other part."

Fullerton Local, No. 667, J. B. I. U. of A., which includes the members in Anaheim, were hosts recently to the union and "boss barbers" and several friends, at a banquet and dance, given in I. O. O.; F. hall.
About 35 couples were present and the music by Joe's orchestra was of the usual excellent quality. The party opened with dancing which was the entertainment until 11 o'clock when the company was invited into the dining room. There a spread complete in detail was served, consisting of roasts, salads, relishes, fruits, sweets, and hot drinks. After the banquet, dancing was again enjoyed until midnight.
Responsible for the delightful affair were the Messrs Charles Faris, Archie Ernest, Charles Brown, Widle, R. T. Scott and Monte Webb.

As a general rule, I do not believe in talking about what has been done in the past, but rather in planning and preparing for the future. However, the production and sales records made by our organization last year have created considerable public interest and caused Studebaker to be the most widely discussed automobile company in the country. On every side, the now famous slogan, "This is a Studebaker year," caught the public fancy and was freely quoted, no doubt because the results achieved by the organization made good the declaration of the slogan. Some of these achievements were the breaking of all previous records of sales of Studebaker cars, the showing of a great percentage of increase in sales over 1920 than any other prominent automobile company, and the winning of first position as the world's largest producer of six-cylinder cars. These to be sure, were important records and accomplishments of which our organization was duly appreciative. Yet the point that caused most public comment was the fact that these records were made during a year of general business depression. Various explanations may be given and have been given for Studebaker accomplishments. Among the factors that have made them possible, I would name these:
The intrinsic value of Studebaker cars from the standpoint of design, quality, durability, performance and price.
The universal respect for and confidence in the integrity of the name Studebaker which for seventy years has been—a symbol of quality and fair dealing.
The possession of $75,000,000 of capital assets, including $38,000,000 of modern plant facilities managed by an organization of long experience and ability which devoted to quality production, permits maximum efficiency and economical manufacture and makes low prices possible.
To paraphrase a homely axiom, the proof of the car is the performance of it. Quite properly so, cars are judged by what they do rather than by what their makers say about them. Records of the performance of motor cars in users hands either make or break the manufacturer's reputation. The performance records of Studebaker cars last year were most noteworthy. Despite the fact that 117,000 new Studebaker cars were produced and sold in the calendar years of 1920 and 1921 and were together with 300,000 cars previously produced in operation in users' hands throughout 1921, our sales of repair parts in 1921 were 6% less than they were in 1919. Automobile manufacturers cannot do both a larger car business and a big repair parts business at the same time. The most healthy and enviable situation possible is that of an increasing car business coupled with a declining business in repair parts.
The Studebaker Corporation is the "Darling of the Gods" today and it is up to our organization to deserve

RUSH CONSTRUCTION UPON SUB-STATION
Officials of the So. Calif. Edison Co. today were completing plans for the erection of a temporary substation at Los Alamitos to replace the plant destroyed by fire when an army balloon occupied by Cadet G. D. Lewis of Arcadia caused a short-circuiting of wires near the power plant.
The temporary plant will be ready for the transmission of electrical power within the next week or ten days, according to W. L. Deimling, Edison representative, and will be replaced by a permanent structure as soon as possible. In the meantime, other sub-stations will carry the load formerly distributed from Los Alamitos.

BOSCH PURCHASER THRICE IN PRISON
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28—Martin E. Kern, to whom the Bosch Magneto Co. was sold by A. Mitchell Palmer as alien property custodian during the war period was an inmate three different times of penitentiaries in New York state; it was shown here, in connection with investigation of the charge that the price asked for the concern was only $4,150,000 or about one-tourth its real value at the time of sale. Previous to the sale, Palmer was associated with Kern in the Bethlehem Motors Corporation.
Kern, according to word here from New York, was put out of the presidency of the Pennsylvania Counties Trust Co., yesterday, following the expose. A run on the bank required a deposit of $250,000 by the Federal Reserve-bank of New York.
Thomas W. Miller, present alien property custodian, had a long conference with President Harding at the White House.
Former Custodian Palmer refused to say anything beyond the fact that he was preparing a statement which he would issue shortly.
The property was not sold through a "dummy" named H. E. Griffiths. The company with the Elseman Co. supplied half the magnetos used in the United States; it is estimated. Large cash and stock dividends were paid by the Bosch Magneto Co. previous to its seizure.
