T0HERE are 1e23e51 Automobiles now State
licensed and running, in the United States.
Il OF these, 1,803951 Pleasure Cars-i.e.,
exclusive of Trucks etc.
More than 900 of them, about 1,623555 Pneu-
matte Tires
Each will out and replace, average, about
one Set of -Four Tires per year.

consumption in the operation of Motor Cars.
The Owner who used his Car 900 Miles less per year,
than he mould have DONE of the hghprce of Tires

investment in the Car proper
The potential prospective, Car-Owner who fails to
buy Car because of the high of Tires and Gasoline
he who sells his Car and does not buy again of the
high of Tires and Gasoline he who for the
reason his Car and does during considerable

So this, then, is a leading
reason why WE initiated, and
propagated, that Goodrich Fair
List" Movement which we pub
licly announced in the press on
Jan. 81, 1915, and which caused
practically every Pneumatic Tire
Manufacturer in this Country to
tollow our lead and bring his
prices down to a fairer level.

livery mile that each Automobile runs, means an
automatic Sale Of Tires to replace that mileage with
IL new Tires.
But, all the Salesmanship. and all the Advertising,
under the Sum- could increase by single Tire the total
sales Of Tires beyond the number Of Cars owned by Con
and the number of Miles each Consumer his Car
yearly.
The Market for Tires is therefore limited infexiby, to
the number of Cars running and the Mileage which each
Owner is induced to yearly
Therefore, opine that to promote greater Sales. and
greater of Automobiles few better incentives be
offered than markedly owered cost. TO CONSUMERS for
Tires and Gasoline.
Just recognize that the only legitimate expansion
open the Tire Industry whole would be due to the Sale
of Automobiles each to Consumers with greater
Mileage USE of each Car by each Owner
That is why we favor the lowest possible price for
Tnes-to Consumers, consistent with maintenance Of high
quality and fair profit to Dealer and Mfr.

1t will mean the more careful prepa-
ration of the appropriation bills,
which are at present congcstcd by
reason of the shipping bill fight. Only
two of these bills have passed the
Senate, the urgent deficiency and the
District. Practically the entire cal
endar is clogged, and even if the
shipping bill were passed this week
there would remain only twenty-one
legislative days from now to the con-
stitutional end OF the session, by no
means time enough for the proper
consideration of practically the en-
tire money-bill calendar by the upper
house and the conferees.
In such circumstances bad legisla-
ton is almost inevitable. Thus the
preparations for an extra session
taken last night will be accepted as
a guarantee OF carefulness in the en-
actment of the governments supply
measures which incidentally to the
provision of funds for the operation
of the federal machine carry a large
measure of general legislation. .

The Bosses, and Next Year.

Some surprise is expressed because
OF the suggestion that at the meeting
OF democratic managers scheduled
.or this town next month Charles F.
Murphy, Thomas Taggart and Roger
Sullivan may attend. One gets the
idea that they should be barred.
Why so? Is not the party arrang-
ing the preliminaries for next year ?
Should not harmony be the watch
word? Will not the party need every
vote it can command? All these
questions are proper, and easily an
swered.
Well. Take New York. What
chance will the party have there un-
less Tammany puts its shoulder to
the wheel? And Tammany, OF
course, spells Murphy. Love me. love
my leader. With the leader of Tam
many Hail sulking. or only half
icartcdly engaged in the campaign
the republicans would have a walk
away.

powerful. 1t elects governors. sena-
tors and representatives in Congress

Where He Failed.

There was a man whose knowledge
Made him seem human college
He could read the Oldest hierogly-
phics known;
He could give you all the reasons
For the various changeful seasons
And perform a classic tune on the
trombone.
He made startling calculations
OF the wealth and strength of ma
tions,
And the starry distances he loved TO
trace.
He could capture a bacillus,
And the other things that kill US,
Though they occupy very tiny
space.
Though he did all these so neatly,
One thing baffled him completely ;
Each day it caused his pride to take
d drop.
With all wisdom he was fiirtin'.
Yet he never learned for certain
On which corner of the street the car
would stop.

Preparing for an Extra Session.

Yesterdays action by the House
democrats who will be members OF
the next Congress in nominating Off
GERS of the next House may be re-
garded as a clear indication of be-
lief that an extra session is inevitable
Ordinarily the House majority would
not prepare for organization until the
first days of December, on the eve
of the new Congress, and the renomi-
nation Of Speaker Clark and the des-
ignation of Representative kitchin as
floor leader at this time can only
mean that in the judgment of the
leaders of the party in Congress it
will be impossible for Congress to
conclude its business in the time ap-
pointed.
In one respect this is a reinsurance.
Evening star., 1915-02-05

out the active assistance of Mr.. Tag
gart would be quite as impossible as
in New York without the assistance
of Tammany.
Mr.. Sullivan is not positively OBJ
jectionable to any member of the
cabinet except Mr.. Bryan. Mr.. Will
son has never given him the cold
shoulder. His power at home can
not be disputed. His machine has
done some notable things, and came
near last fall to sending him to the
United States Senate. He is unpopu-
lar in anti-boss circles, SO is
every boss. Illinois has never in re-
cent years gone democratic without
his aid. Normally republican state,
it has just returned republican to
the Senate, and seems likely to give
its vote next year to the republican
candidate for President, even with
Mr.. Sullivan busy. How large the re-
publican vote would be with Mr.. Sui
livan grumpy is easily calculated.
Mr.. Wilson considers himself the
captain of the democratic team, and
wants and asks for team work. All
who profess and call themselves
democrats are members of his team.
He is not picking and choosing now.
AS he approaches the time when the
people are to pass at the polls on the
deeds he has done in Office he appre-
ciates the Importance of getting
everybody into line, and holding the
line.
The open season for hunting and
hurting bosses is about over. All who
are alive and kicking are to be con-
served. Next year there will be work
for them to do, and such work as only
they can do, and Mr.. Wilson will
need all of the democratic stripe in
his business.

Eastward Trend of Suffrage.
ON the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune
Passage of the woman suffrage con-
stitutional amendment without u mega =
tive vote in the assembly was due to
the fact that both political parties
are pledged to submit this question to
the voters next fall rather than to
any general acquiescence in the prin-
ciple of equal suffrage. Nevertheless,
the fact that the women obtained
such platform pledges shows what an
advance the cause has made in the
last five years. Half the area of the
country now shows white on the
suffrage maps, though. OF course, this
does not mean that half the women
of the country vote. The suffrage
wedge is pushing eastward steadily.
New Jersey will also probably sub
nit an amendment next November 1t
is only a question of time when the
votes for women issue will be voted
on in all the eastern states.

The Veto Stands.

The literacy test in our immigra-
ton problem has again failed. Three
times it has passed Congress, three
times been vetoed, and three times
been unable to override the presi-
Dental objection.
Yesterdays vote in the House was
close. Two-thirds were required by
the friends of the test, and they came
within FIVE votes of producing the
number.
Both parties were divided. Mr..
Underwood, the leader of the ma
jority party, spoke and voted against
the President, and beat him on that
side of the chamber by sixty-five
votes. The republicans voted nearly
three to one against the President.
Promptly, Mr.. Burnett of Alabama,
the author of the defeated bill and a
member-elect of the next House,
gives notice that the measure, in the
form now rejected, will be presented
to the new Congress. If it passes
that body it will again be vetoed by
Mr.. Wilson; and that will make the
matter a distinct issue-more distinct
than ever before-in a presidential
campaign.
This literacy test has persisted
through much encouragement for
some years. Mr.. Cleveland when
President protested it. But it came
back in Mr.. Taft's day. and, notwith-
standing the fact that he protested it,
too, it came back this time with re-
markable strength. How strong it is
at present is fully shown by the
spirit of the House toward it. On
what other measure would so many
democrats, who have made such a
record for complacency, have stood
out to the end against White House
pressure?
The war has given an emphasis to
the immigration question it did not
bear before. 1t is the general expec-
tation that at the close of hostilities
there will be large movement this
way by people in the devastated
zones seeking escape from the bur-
dens incident to such a struggle; and
that some means should be devised
and applied to shut out undesirables
is very persuasive proposition. We
have already admitted far too many
people of that description.
About the literacy test, however,
plays an objection deeply grounded in
American sentiment and practice
and Mr.. Wilson in his veto voiced
it with unusual force and clearness.
He has not said better thing, or
anything in SO good a form, since
taking Office. All opponents OF that
test. republicans as we'll as demo-
Gratis, can afford to rest the case as
he states it. And that fact will give
the next national conventions a hard
nut to crack, and next years SPELL
binders another topic that not one in
twenty is capable of handling.

Germany's Blockade of England.

The German adniralty's order de-
claring the waters around Great
Britain and Ireland to be a war zone
from and after February 18 is log
ical result of the demonstration re-
Gently of the ability of German sub
marines to cruise successfully as COM
merce destroyers at long distances
from base. Obviously it is to Ger
many's interest to isolate Great
Britain by means of a blockade which
will cut off food supplies. England
is an enemy nation and it is legiti-
mate act of warfare to draw a Gordon
around it to prevent the importation
of supplies of all kinds, provided ne
cessities of life for non-combatants
are proclaimed to be contraband after
due notice to the world.
In the present case the order only
declares a blockade against the mer-
chant ships of the nations against
which Germany is at war, but spe-
cihc warning is given that all neutral
vessels plying the prescribed waters
will be in danger, inasmuch as, ac-
cording to this proclamation. the gov
ernment at London has ordered the
British merchant marine to use neu-
trail flags and ''in view of the hazards
OF naval warfare" as the German
text runs, 1T cannot always be avoid
ed that attacks meant for an enemy's
ships endanger neutral ships In
other words, an American vessel
rightfully flying the United States
flag may be mistaken for a British
ship and sunk. The practical effect
OF the order in these terms is to pro-
libit, under penalty of destruction,
all neutral commerce with England.
The gravity Of the situation pre-
cipitated by this order is unmistak-
able. In the absence of specifically
declared blockade prescribing all
commerce with England, under what
ever flag, the United States technical
iy has a right to trade with England,
but at a risk which is virtually pro-
hibitive. In case of the destruction
of an American vessel, mistaken for
British ship. Germany would doubt
less point to the text of the admiral
tyS proclamation as a justification,
presumably assuming liability for
damages. But it is to be noted that
for the first time in the history of
warfare between nations one of the
belligerents claims the right to de-
stroy the lives of neutral crews and
passengers "by unavoidable hazard"
Whether this country can possibly
accept such doctrine is for the most
serious consideration between now
and the time the proposed blockade
is to take effect.
The United States cannot protest
against a blockade either of England
or Germany. however inclusive it may
be- 1t declared and maintained
blockade OF the southern ports during
the civil war against the ships Of all
nations, and it must now submit to
any blockade that may be proclaimed
formally and be made effective in ac
cordance with international law. The
drift seems to be toward reciprocal
and retaliatory blockades, enforced
by Germany under the surface and by
England on the surface OF the sea,
with resulting disaster to American
commerce in the waters adjacent to
the shores OF both belligerents.

Distinction,

What distinction do you make be-
tween entertainment and 'art'?"
