THE GRAY-DORT MILEAGE nus l

The popular Gray-Dort car is prov- ing every day her extraordinary ec- onomy in operation.

In four tests made the past month with no special preparation, with (lif-

fcrent ears and

road condition the

lowest mileage shown was 21 1-4 miles per gal. of gasoline. In one test 23 1-2 miles per gallon was made and in each of the other runs 22 miles per gallon. From Charlottetown to Alber- ton ‘and return 6 gallons of gas gave a milege of 129 1-4 miles. This was early in the season with the roads in very

poor shape.

These‘ are actual tests and we are willing to snow any one the same re- sults with any Gray-Dort in good

working order.

With gas and oil ‘at high prices it pays to keep in mind the car that

gives the most for the mdney.

The

Gray-Dort will averagre better than 20 miles to the gallon of gas, and less

than one quart of 1.00 miles.

it. ‘l f1,- ' < I111: SITUATION is POLAND

l .

Our despatchcs from the land of the Bolsheviki give but faint indication of the armistice concluded between the Poles and the Soviet of Russia. They are still ﬁghting, the Bolsheviki advancingand it” Poles retiring. Yet an armistice has been agreed to; Soviet Russia yielded to the threat frotrFGreat Britain and France that if she invaded 0r attempted to invade Poland she must reckon with the Allied Powers. _

It will be remembered that the Poles were warn- ed by both Britain and France not to carry the war into Russia but the military party at Warsaw deter- mined otherwise. They were looking for trouble and got it. The Bolsheviki defeated them, drove them back upon their own borders and seriously threaten- ed to take possession of the whole country. It was at this stage that Britain and France interposed and illlf.‘ situation at present is that the Russians agreed

to the armistice demanded by Britain and France; the Bolslieviki are still advancing and the Poles re- treating. What the end will be no one knows. At present it looks as if Britain and France must put their threat into execution and send troops tothe aid of the Poles.

This action is taken notso much to help the Poles, who brought the trouble upon themselves, but for the larger purpose of securing Europe against too active Bolshevist penetration. The war on the Poles is the ﬁrst real triumph of the Russian Reds and it has added immensely to their military prestige.

The Patriot, has abiding faith in the power of bluff and misrepresentation. On these twin horses its party rode into power in July 1919 and on these two it still hopes to be able to continue deceiving the people. In the course of one of its attempts to stem the storm of indignation now rising throughout the province it rcsurrects chunks of the stuff with which it. and the Liberal candidates deceived the people in 1919 with as much assurance as if the people were still ready to swallow them. Among these is. the statement that when the Liberals came into power in September 1919, “the deficit certified to by the Provincial Auditor was $232,422.05.” The

ed “financial statement" ivas got up for the special purpose. of deceiving the people and preparing the way for the increased taxation that was then in con- "templation. The statement covered receipts and ex- penditures for the first eight months of the year, receipts before the years taxes had been received; expenditures when the years supplies and much of Ttlie supplies for 1920 had been purchased by the Ar- seiiault government. Will the Patriot inform its readers why the report of the Provincial Auditor before the Public Accounts Committee was suppres- sed by a vote of the Liberal members of the House at the last session? Will it tell its readers that the accounts for the last four months of 1919 were nev- er audited although audit was repeatedly asked for by the opposition? Will it tell its readers why the minority report of the Public Accounts Committee was on motion of Premier ell refused a place in the Journal of the House?

We know the Patriot will not tell these things and although our readers and the Patriot readers

necessary; necessary t0 ncrease their own salaries; necessary to make salaries for political hcelers for whom they made new jobs. This was why the 1919 taxes were not collected in 1919; this was why the Provincial auditors report for the whole year was not made public; this was why the minority report of the Public Accounts Committee was suppressed. The people know the bluff game the Patriot has already played; the story is an old and unpleasant one and it is sheer waste of time and paper to rehash it as the people will no longer believe any represen- tation the Patriot may make on any political quin- tion; witness its report of the ‘harmonious’ Liber- al convention at O’Leary when a vote of want of confidence in the government was actually passed. Why did the Patriot givc a false report? Wh will it in its next issue brazenly state that its repiirt was correct? Does it still think the people are all fools and ready to believe such rot? As our .correspond- ent Mr. John Pineau, a Liberal present at that meet- ing, said “you could not get a resolution of confi- dence in the Bell government passed in any gather- ing in Prince Edward Islanr ” and the Patriot knows

tVRONG AGAIN

Mr. A. C. Saunders, K. C., M. L. A., is quoted by the Patriot as pointing out “a specific charge made by the Guardian which he declared to be absolutely false. This was with respect to legislation being pre- pared underhantl and put through the House with- out respect to the views of the members themselves” Just like a lot more that Mr. Saunders, the Patriot and other Liberal authorities have said! This state- ment was made, not by the Guardian but by Mr. A. E. McLean, M. L. A., a Liberal member, at the Mont Carmel meeting, as reported in the press and not denied by Mr. McLean although he made a circuit- ous tour around it in a newspaper that had not pub-

" lisbcd the report of the meeting. Here againthc ad-

vantage appears of a “public discussion on a public platform” to whch our Liberal friends have become addicted of late. ‘ _ j

They. through their City Council, provide for all their public services. roads, bridg- es, boards of health, fire protec~ Uun, police and administration of justice. water, electric lighting and in addition about 830.000 for school purposes. For these purposes they have taxed themselves (about 8150.

But piomlses emnnt- ing from that source are a "some things" that cannot be cashed at any bank. or passed, even at a ruinous discount, through any cogn- merclnl channel. They are without TANGIBDE value.

The next proln- inc, on lin- still less reliable nu- thority of the‘ Patriot, was that. as n consideration or offset to this unusual laxution of the Pity, the government were going to under- take llic cost of construction of a portion of the permanent roadway through the city, under the terms of the Highways Grunt.
