ROOSEVELT GREETS
HENEY'S SUCCESS

San Francisco, Aug. 31.-Francis J
Heney, who won the Progressive nom
nation for United States senator, has
received the following telegram of con
eratulations from Colonel Roosevelt:
"Franois J. Heney,
"Phelan Building,
"San Francisco, Cal.
81 thank you for your message an
nouncing your nomination for United
States senator by the Progressives. !
most earnestly hope that not only the
Progressives of California, but all
good citizens, no matter to what party
they may belong, will join in support
ing you, just as hope they will poin
in supporting Hiram Johnson.
Exactly as it would be an encour-
agement to believers in honest and
efficient government everywhere to
have Hiram Johnson reelected gov
ernor of California, so would it be the
utmost consequence to all our people
from New York to Texas, from Oregon
to Florida, to have you in the United
States senate.
''I speak with a sincerity of convic-
ton based upon full knowledge, for
when | was President and you served
under me, 7 had exceptional oppor~
tunities to know you and your abilities
and character and peculiar fitness for
the DIblic service.
"You took charge of the most i'm
rortant, most difficult and most dam
serouS suits that we carried on during
my administration. Political, financial
and social crookedness We're arrayed
against you. Your great ability, your
courage and entire disin-
terestedness enable you to triumph.
"You have stood like rock agains>
all forms of lawlessness, violence and
corruption. You championed in their
entirety the principles laid down in the
platform of 1912. which
platform embodies with sanity and
vision the only principles in accord
ance with which We shall be able per-
to handle this government,
alike from the standpoint of our poll
teal, economic and moral conditions
within our borders and from the stand
point of conserving our rights and
performing our duties in the face of
the other nations of the world.
81 wish you all success.

ENGLAND PROTESTS
AGAINST BUYING SHIPS

Washington, Aug. 31.-Great Brit
ain, through Sir Cecil Spring-Rice,
ambassador, filed a protest today with
Secretary Bryan against the purchase
by the United States of foreign ships

tute breach of neutrality, inasmuch
as it would enable Germany and Aus
tria to obtain money for their ships
now forced to lie idle. The matter
was wired to the President at Cornish,

DUE TO QUICK ACTION

Early IN August-when war began
the worlds rubber markets seemed
closed to us. Rubber prices doubled
almost over night.
Men could see no way to pay for
rubber abroad, and no way to bring
it in. We, like others-in that panic
were forced to higher prices. But
we have since gone back to prices we
charged before the war, and this is
how we did it:
We had men in London and Singa-
pore when the war broke out. The
larger part of the worlds rubber
supply comes through there. We
cabled them to buy up the pick of the
rubber. They bought-before the ad-
vance,, 100000 pounds of the finest
rubber there.
Nearly all this is now on the way
to us. And K means practically all of
the extra-grade rubber obtainable
abroad.

Tires at
Before-War Prices

Today we have our own men in Co.
lombo, Singapore and Para. Those
are the worlds chief sources of rub
Der. So we are pretty we'll assured of
a constant supply, and our pick of
the best that's produced.
We were first on the ground. We
were quickest in action. AS a result,
we shall soon have in storage an al
most record supply of this extra
grade of rubber.
And we paid about June prices.
Now Interior Grades Cost Double.
About the only crude rubber avail
able now for many makers is inferior.
In ordinary times, the best tire max
ers refuse it. Much of it had been
rejected. But that "off rubber" now
sells for much more than we paid for
the best.
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in
advance Of Goodyears. And many
tire makers, short of supplies, will be
forced to use secOnd-grade rubber.
Be Careful Now.
In Goodyears we pledge you the
same grade tire as always. And that
grade won for Goodyears the top
place in Tiredom-the largest sale in
the world.
And, for the time being, our prices
are the same as before the war. We
shall try to keep them there.
We accept no excessive orders, but
dealers will be kept supplied. And
we charge them, until further notice,
only ante-bellum prices.
That means that Goodyears-the
best tires built-are selling way below
other tires.
