Will Be At- •imilated by Nation. Jassy, Rumania.—Three hundred thousand Rumanian gypsies will be assimilated by Rumania and become an Integral part of the Rumanian race. This Is one of the great social re forms inaugurated by Dr. Julius Maniu, Rumania's new progressive premier. Unlike the gypsies of Hun gary, Czechoslovakia and Yugo-Slavla who have been granted citizenship In these countries, the gypsies of Ru mania are still regarded virtually as slaves. Up to 1845 gypsy slave markets ex isted in Rumania. The price of a family of gypsies sold as slaves was about $50. When the United States was struggling with the slave prob lem during the Civil war Rumania decided to abolish gypsy slavery alto gether. so that today gypsies are free to live their own unfettered, nomadic and primitive lives, where and how they will. Rumania’s large gypsy population i Is scattered all over the country. Large settlements of them are to he found in Moldavia, Walachia and Transylvania. ^ Like their brother gypsies In the United States, they ply their trade as tinkers, blacksmiths, musicians, dancers, soothsayers and horse dealers. Those who cannot find regular employment live by theft and mendicancy. Unlike the gypsies of Czechoslo vakia or Hungary, who seem to he o superior daste, the Rumanian gypsies live in great squalor and want. Although they allow themselves to be baptized In the Christian faith, they really pursue no religion. Their old women practice fortune-telling end are famous for their magic and Sleight of hand. America Set* Record in Road Construction New York.—No nation has ever gone Into road construction at such an amazing pace ns has the United States during the last ten >*enrs. Roy D. Chapin, chairman of the highway committee, National Automo bile Chamber of Commerce, says that In less than ten years the public has voted virtually $10,000,000,000 to the construction and malntenam-e of roads, or enough to defray onr cost In the World war, excluding foreign loans. No public roods Improvement In any era has remotely approximated the exiK'nditure of these projects, and It Is notable that the feat of raising the money has been accomplished with comparative ease.

Kreps and Smoak, were conducted up the center aisle to a position in fr r t of th? press desk, when, after an intro duction by Colonel Caihou > they sang “Sweet Iodine,” a song whi?h tells of the glories of iodine and the sort of folk South Carolina products make. The song, by the way, is by Colonel Calhoun. “Iodide, potassium abounds in all our land, Barnwell, Jasper, Hampton, as they stand, Allendale, Colleton, Bamberg, Beau fort, fine. This is where the ciops have Sweet Iodine. Chorus: “Sweet Iodine, that gift divine. Makes health supreme, confirms on iL^d reams, From every cloud, we cry aloud, Blessings sunshine, Sweet Iodine. “Iodine, calcium .phosphate end the kind, Abound in our crops, to us is just sublime, \ Men grow bigger, kids just extia fine, Just because we live on Sweet Iodine. “Edisto-Savani fame. ih rivers of great vaniwi *“*•*'*» — Boys and kids grow to bigger men, ’Matoes, Haters, cukes and grain all fine, Makes healthy babies, because Sweet S ■ Iodine.” OOU.UOO in highway bond Issues to fa cilitate completion of their main state systems.

It was distinctly a new problem, for here was a car with quicker acceleration, greater speed and more braking efficiency than any car of similar size or weight. So that every Ford owner might be assured of maxi mum tire mileage at the low est cost, the Ford Motor Company devoted many months to research and experiment in conjunc tion with the leading tire manufacturers. — Though the Ford tires are designated as 30 x 4.50, they have the resiliency and air space of much larger tires because of the drop center rim of the steel-spoke wheels. For best results, the tires on the new Ford should be kept inflated to an air pres sure of 35 pounds and checked regularly to insure this pressure all the time. This is important. Low in- flation breaks down the side- walls of a tire. By cansing overheating, it also destroys the rubber that acts as an insulation, with consequent separation of the cord. As a result, certain defl- At the end 6f each 5000 nite specifications were de- miles, when you have the veloped for tires for the new front wheels packed with Ford.
