Mr.. Bailey's Statement.

In statement given to the press to-
day. Mr.. Bailey said, in part:
Until the democratic party itself has
spoken. and spoken authoritatively, on
The subject, it is not possible for any
man or any set of men to commit it to
policy of military aggrandizement.
Not even a democratic Congress can
do this. A democratic Congress may,
indeed, indorse a proposition looking
to that end. But repudiation of it's ac-
tion by the democratic voters of the
land may. and 1 believe would, swiftly
follow.

Resistance Is Sure.

That the opposition to preparedness,
to be voiced first-in the House, and in
no uncertain tones, will find echo in the
Senate is taken for granted. And
there is no doubt of the resistance of
democrats in the House. Mr.. Bryan has
served fair notice of what he and his
followers intend to do.
But the opposition will not be con-
fined to southern democrats alone. One
of the most vigorous and outspokan an
tagonists of the Presidents prepared
ness legislation is Representative Bal
ley of Pennsylvania. P.

In order to put Mechanical hall in

George A. Anthony are the newest
members Of the District Of Columbia
Automobile Club. .-.r
In view of the fact that the expense
of organizing and conducting the Dis
trict Auto Club has far exceeded the
amount of money received as member
ship dues and that more members are
needed il the good work already ac-
complished Is to be continued, each of
the present members will be asked to
secure one new member.
This is considered the most effective
method OF en1argfng the club roster, as
those who are already members have at
ship to whom they can make a con-
vtncfng and successful appeal in the
knowledge of the benefits which have
accrued to them since Joining. the club.
since 1t came into existence the local
club has been active in securing much
road improvement in the nearby coun-
try; has sign posted many roads which
were formerly difficult to follow; has
issued several new-automobile road

National Capital: has supplied local
motorists with motoring information of

Regardless Of the encouragement

who accept freely of the benefits of

says William Ullman, organizer of the

War has been declared by the Ameri-
can Automobile Association against the
various fake motoring organizations
which have sprung int$ being during
the past few years, and especially
those OF the 'bargaingi giving" variety
It Is this latter class whose activi-
against which the wrath of the great
body of motorists is leveled particu-

carnations are those which deal in

OF protection for motorists.

APPLY BODY FINISH
BYANEW METHOD
Varnish Put on in Continuous
Flow Through Broad
Nozzle.

One of the latest methods of applying
the body finish to automobiles is de-
scribed in the current issue of Iron Age
by George d. Babcock. 1t is called
''steam flowing and Mr.. Babcock says
of it:
''This process is the application of
liquid coatings by means of a wide
fiat nozzle through which the coating Is
forced to flow continuously upon the sur
face in a wide ribbon-like stream.
LAS in all new processes skepticism
early took the place of scientific study,
and the questions of durability, cleanli-
ness md briliancy were long debated be-
fore the present practical adoption of
the methods. The virtue of these late
methods has been proved conclusively for
each of the above mentioned points.
Protecting Exposed Surfaces.

of automobiles from the elements affect
ing them has recaired most intensive
study since the beginning of the in

exposure of these coatinsS on the auto

fectly prepared and applied. but selected
to resist the special destructive in

FAKE cLAIRVoYANTs EXPOSED

Despite the newspaper stories ex-
posing so-called clairvoyants, these
fakirs annually reaped fortunes as
the result of their activity. Now, Ka-
lem has produced two-act drama,
''The Clairvoyant Swindlers," which
shows how these people victimize
their dupes.
All the moss-covered tricks used by
fake clairvoyants are exposed. The
messages from ''the other SIDE" the
reading of names, the mental tele-
pathy stunts" and other fakes of
this nature are shown in the course
of the story.
The crooks are rounded up by Ber-
tina, a clever sleuth connected with
the police department. This role is
enacted by Marin Sais, one of Ka-
LENS popular leading ladies. 1t is
safe to predict that "The Clairvoyant
Swindlers" will open the eyes of peo-
pie who have allowed themselves to
be hoodwinked by fakirs of this
stripe.
