CHALMERS

Holds

A Hot Spot Chalmers Every Drop of Gas to Account

It takes gas to move weight. And in a car like the Hot Spot Chalmers, which is 300 pounds above the "light-weight" "class and 300 pounds under the heavy-weight class,

has more than passing attention.

gas

The trick is to move this weight at the minimum effort., Therefore, the Hot Spot and Ram's-horn play a great part in the Chalmers.

Hot Spot holds every drop of gas to account.

..It "cracks up" into a "dry vapor powder" the raw gas just as the gas enters the Ram's-horn and the latter dispatches the "pulverized" fuel to the cylinders with lightning-like rapidity.

The result is that when the spark plugs "touch it off"'. every drop (finer by far than the naked eye can detect) turns itself into power de luxe.

"

There's little waste-well ̈nigh none. And remember that this Hot Spot engine of the Chalmers is the most. modern automobile engine of the day.

It has made Chalmers one of the few great cars of the

world.

POWER TO STRIKE

MR. SMILLIE ON CAPITALISTS,

At the annual conference of the Na tional Union of Scattish Mine Workers at Ayr, on “August 13th, Mr. Robert Smillie, president of the Miners' Federa- tion, who was formerly the president of the union, was accorded an enthusiastic welcome. I am still," he said, "n strong believer in 'our two movements going forward side by side. There is an iden in the minds of some men that all our questions should be settled in the House of Commons, and that the time has almost come when we shall have suth cient political power to lay aside pur industrial power, Nothing could" be more foolish. (Cheers!) We are still a long way from the stage when we can' afford to give up our power of combina- tion outside Parliament. There is no reason why we should not strengthen our förees inside the House of Commons and keep our forces, outside strong. We hear about drastic action and lighting strikes and the down-tools policy, but we know practically nothing about that..now com- pared with the old days. I am exceed ingly anxious to prevent local ouchrenks: and lightning strikes. I want to main- tain the power to have such strikes, should they be necessary, but I want to have that power vested in the larger body. and I want that body to be in a position to negotiate for a settlement before a stoppage takes place." (Cheers.)

Alluding to the agitation which he said the capitalists were setting up against nationalisation, Mr. Smillie said the dukes had called them agitators. - Now they were agitators themselves. (Laugh- ter) It would be a good experience for them and bring them out amongst the common people. The capitalists knew bo that if they allowed the mines nationalised without a. struggle

would come industries

next. said Mr. Smillie.. capitalists are strong.

They

have plenty of wealth behind There is talk about Bolshevik agents bringing over thousands of pounds to spread among you fellows and carry on a Bolshevik agitation in this country, but all the money the Bolsheviks can raise is not in it compared with the money the that is in the movement against. nationalisation of the mines of this coun

we arc entitled to expect the ment to carry out the finding of that majority. If the Government allow their of Coru- capitalist friends in the House mons to frighten them and prevent them carrying out what was. practically pro- mised by Mr. Bonar Law, acting for the Prime Minister, then I feel it would be the duty of organised labour, and cer tainly of the miners, to use their indus trial power to force the hands of the Government. (Cheers.)

A section of the Government would be delighted to fight the workers section by section in order to divide them centrally und

"We ought," added Mr. generally Smillie, to be wise enough not to allow them to divide us Un great national questions. The horizon is black at pre- sent, but 1 am hopeful that a brighter and better time is coming for the work-

(Cheers.) Cre

In his presidential address Mr. John Robertson, M.P, referring to the Gen eral Eletion. said if the workers could have the same chance to make their choice to-day as they had in December, after six month.* experience of the Coalition, he. was confident that labour would be in a position to form the Best Labour Govern ment in the country. Something had been said about losing the human touch between employed and employers, int frou what he had seen of it in the mining industry he considered they could not lose it a moment too soon.

BRITISH SHIPBUILDING. ACTIVE BUT INSUFFICIENT

A statement that there are two and a hait million tons of shipping under con struction in the United Kingdom, and that practically every yard is fully pack ed with orders, was made by Captain) H. P. Hooper in presiding at the annual nueting of the London General Shipowners' Association. It would not dd," said Captain Hooper," for us to be ntished with this position. Our friende in the United States have no less than four million tons under construction. · If the labour market takes a favourable turn. it is probable that the two and a half million tons will be ready to take the water within the next twelve months. It is practically all cargo tonnage, and na doubt the carriage of raw material is a primary 'qucation; but it is a matter of regret that there is not more than passen. gentonange under construction, because we auffered severely in this respect during the war, and the whole of the passenger liner tonnage of the enemy has been hand- wl over to the United States. It is one. of those things very difficult to under- stand.""

Referring to labour troubles, Captain Hooper said that it would seem that the fighting spirit. which had sank deeply into the minds of the people, now that there was no enemy to subdue, was turned to the desire to cut our own throats at home. "I do not think we have ever been so hardly pressed as we are to-day. Not only have we auffered very severely during the war, but we have now to com. pate with competitors who have their pockets full of money, while we have a millstore of debt round our necke The Government policy would have to beja constructive one on broad lines, and for the people there must be a determination to return to work at once,"
