sioner DAILY, whose training at West Point
has proven invaluable to him in improving
the Boston fire department, has decided
to supplant the six horses OF the Boston
district fire chiefs by six automobiles.
To determine the merit and efficiency
of motor cars in the fire service. the VeIie
Boston service car. which automobile is
placed at the disposal of Governor Foss.
Mayor Fitzgerald and all Boston organiza-
tons, was put to a gruelling test by Chief
John Madison of the Boston fire depart
ment. The test placed the automobile in
actual fire service. The automobile was
driven during the weeks test by three diff
ferent drivers, to prove the ease of hand
ling the machine. Chief Madison responded
to all alarms for inspection work end
throughout the fire department routine
The quickness, ease of handling and re-
markable responsive powers proved to the
satisfaction of Chief Madison that the
motor car will solve the biggest Of all
fire problems-speed in getting to the blaze.
Il believe absolutely that the motor car
will supplant the horse on fire apparatus"
said Chief Madison. Il am fully convinced
after my delightful weeks experience with
the automobile in service that the automo-
bile will be the biggest power in preventing
large fires, especially in the suburban dis
tricts Of the cities where the runs are long

10 Per Cent Oversize
Here's another advantage.

A1SiS dHOtnSi auNdutaSC'
Our No-Rim-Cut tire-the hookless
tire-begins to fare right from the rim
base. 1t isn't contracted like the
clincher tire.
So No-Rim-Cut tires are 10 per cent
oversize, and yet they fit the rim. That
means 10 per cent more carrying ca
pacity. 1t means, with the average car,
rs per cent additional tire mileage.
That extra size takes care of your ex-
ira weight. 1t takes care of the top,
glass front, gas tank, extra tire, etc. 4,
which overload most tires. 1t saves
the blow-outs which come from too
much weight. We give that extra with
out any extra cost.
These two features together cut tire
bills in two with the average car. That's
why our tire sales trebled last year.

Thrusts at Trusts.

ton of alleged violations Of the Sher-
man antitrust law leads the depart
ment to believe that 1t can carry
through several prosecutions with sue
cess before the end Of the year.
The decisions in the cases against
the Standard OIL company. and the.
American Tobacco company proved
that the Sherman law could deal with
the trusts SO far as to halt their poll
cies OF greed and tyranny. But they
have not shown that the trust problem
could be settled thereby. What are
half;a dozen suits, or half hundred
for that matter, as against the forma-
ton and the conduct Of new combine
lions, new trade associations, new
pools and new agreements? They
amount to no more than the pin prick
in the hide Of a rhinoceros.
Only q few politicians who still per-
ceive advertising material In the de-
nunciatfon OF the trusts pretend that
prosecution can ever effectively stay
the course Of economic evolution.
They but help to postpone the discov-
cry OF the solution. The real work Of
dealing with the difficulty lies with
those who are confident that regula-
ton, not foolish attempts at destruc-
ton, constitutes the answer.

is VERY BAD EITHER WAY
Taft's Veto Of the Wool Bill May
Cause Him Many Bad Quarter
on an Hour. Sei5i

We are confident that President
Taft, by his veto of the wool bill, has
prepared many bad quarter OF an
hour for himself. It may appear that
he has done an uncomfortable dis
service to his tariff board by SO
much insisting upon the necessity OF
basing revision Of the schedules upon
its report and findings.
The Underwood revision of the wool
schedule Mr.. Taft found to be unac-
ceptable, because it had been prepared
without Information as to cost differ
ences and other factors which the tar
If board is engaged in studying. The
general opinion of the country, we are
sure, is that, in signing bill which
reduces, the run of duties on WOODEN
fabrics from IS per cent. to 45 per
cent. he would have run no great risk
OF sanctioning duties too low to meet
differences of production cost and the
reasonable profit" to>American manu-
facturers. However, he was OF
different opinion, and vetoed the bill.
Now, suppose the report OF the tariff
board should be. of such nature as
TO JUSTLY rates fDelO"f tuose AACu -
the Underwood bill. That would show
that Mr.. Taft had entirely mts5udged
the result and had done injustice to
its authors in imputing haste and
recklessness to them In preparing the
new rates. On the other hand, sup
pose the boards report should indi-
cate the necessity Of duties consider
ably higher than those fixed in the
Underwood bill. Does the president
suppose, do the wooden manufactur-
ers or the friends Of protection gen.
orally imagine for moment, that the
country would accept such report
as fair and impartial presentation
of facts fit to serve as basis for the
revision of that schedule? Would It
not, OH the contrary, be everywhe-e
said that the presidents tariff board
was but part OF the great protection
list organization, cooperating with the
Republican party and with the presiT
dent himself to maintain the indie
feasible" duties Of schedule X?
1t seems to US that endorsements
which might easily have been avoided
by signing the wool bill have been de.
liberately invited by the veto.
