limans had 47,113 lower automo
biles this July 1 than they had a
year ago, but had 3,000 more motor

^cyciea, the quarterly count made by
l^pi’ague Silver, director of the Mo
rot Vehicle Bureau, shows. The

64,242 motor trucks now as com
pared with 51.242 a, year ago, and
765 motorcycles now as compared
with 1,119 a year ago.
The count is made by counting
»o many cards In the file and
measuring them, then measuring
those for each county and for the
entire state, and figuring the num
ber, which is not absolutely ac
curate, but within at most a dosen
of the actual count,.
Rarely is a county found that
shows an increase, this year over
last year, most of them reflecting
the economic status with a drop in
number. The average of automo
biles per county is about 3,190, of
trucks about 542 and of motorcycles
is less than eight.

ALL your life you have been

as regards the so-called minor in

Usually these infections, even if
they are mild in their symptoms,
are associated with the "pneumo

is far easier to care for such cases
at a hospital where all modern fa

This disease is most fatal In the

extreme precautions must be taken
for their protection.
Cold, welting and chilling must be

Both National
Parties In Debt
Finances Depleted A* Politicians
Begin Looking: At 1932.
—<—
Washington —National political
leaders arc finding It kind of hard
to keep their new high-powered
machines running through the dull
season.
It is a question of money, and
both Republicans and Democrats
have run into "hard times." Wavs
of keeping the treasury filled in the
off-year of political campaigns is
occupying attention of the party
chieftains ;
Joseph R Nutt of Cleveland. G
O P treasurer, conferred here last
week-end with the Republican high
command and it is understood that
he said the bottom was In sight in
the old money barrel.
The last report of the Democratic
National Committee showed a loan
had been required from Chairman
John J Raskob.
I am all right," Nutt said, "but
I guess we will have to have a
little more before the summer Is
over Of course, we don't need
much now except, for maintalnance
of headquarters here,” ,
For the first time in history both
parties are now maintaining per
manent national headquarters with
staffs, including publicity directors
Such hradquarter^require money.
While the Democrats and Re
ipublican leaders are satisfied that
permanent organizations with pub
licity directors are essential and
j«re pleased with the results, they
■ hare found that, is Is not so easv
jto get, money when a campaign
is not, actually in progress.
| Both national committees have
ilaid plans for getting the usual
contributions for the vital presi
dential campaigns, but their ^re
spective treasurers have been taxed
by the new problem of raising
money when there is no blare and
tumult of the election work.

ALL DOWN BUT ONE
“Gtrard" tn Philadelphia Inquirer.
Cost of nearly everything has
fallen very much except the high
cost of being sick. A business man
was talking about this In the pres
ence of a physician.
"My sister” said the former, “is
in a hospital awaiting an operation.
She pays $10 a day for irer room
and $7 a day for a nurse.”
Physician's fee and surgeon's tax
are other items sure to be aplenty.
But. $17 a day- $119 a week—for
room and nurse in a hospital make
such accommodation a luxury for
millionaires
Only the extremely poor who
need pay nothing or the very rich
who can pay anything alone may
enjoy hospitals without the danger
of bankruptcy. .
