Cash-Protecting
Gun Permit Lost
by Billy Lyons
Sporting Man Accused OF Show.
ing Pistol In white Way"
Restaurants

Billy Lyons, a sporting enthusiast
OF national reputation, was deprived
yesterday Of his right TO carry the re-
volver and sword cane with which he
guarded the great sums Of money ne
usually carries. Magistrate Murphy,
sitting in West Side SQUIRT, impounded
permit issued to Lyons by Judge
Otto A. Rosalsky. of the Court Of Gen
eral Sessions, authorizing him to carry
concealed weapons.
The trouble wasn't that Lyons guard
ed his pocket money too closely, but
rather that he displayed too freely his
revolver along the Great White Way.
He is alleged to have hourished the
weapon in the Garden restaurant re-
Gently and to have drawn it again in
Peters restaurant Wednesday night,
when Herman r. Lingg, broker, de-
MED him the right to converse with
some women whom Lingg was enter
tanning.
Lyons's permit to carry concealed
weapons about New York-an unusual
document in itself-was issued by
Judge Rosalsky in 1914. So interested
was the judge in Lyons's case that he
went to the station house after Lyons
had been arrested and signed his bail
bond. The two men have been close
friends for years.
Lyons comes from Denver. where he
was once a deputy sheriff. He was SER
geant-at-arms at the last Democratic
National Convention, and acted as
bodyguard to John Lind in Mexico. He
achieved notoriety last fall, when he
leaped into the ring at the time Billy
Roche gave his decision to Freddie
Welsh over Charley White in the fight
at Colorado Springs and stood of the
mob which threatened Roche.

Standardized quality-that is what it
means.
Standardized rubber products - every
thing from rubber tires to garden hose,
from rubber boots to hot water bags, from
bathing caps to rubber sheeting.
The United States Rubber Compdny's
super trade mark, announced to the public
little over year ago, is the symbol OF the
realization of lofty ideal
arigid super STANDARD 0frubber products.
Whenever you see that supev-trade- mark
on anything made of rubber, you know
that the largest rubber manufacturer in
the world guarantees it to be super
standard.
And, through the United States Tire
Company, the United States Rubber Com
pang has set the same super standard OF
quality for rubber tires-for automobiles,
motorcycles, bicycles and trucks-as for
everything else made Of rubber.
At the top of this advertisement is the
reproduction of a striped ribbon and, at
the bottom, of a seal-both together max
ing the uper-trade-n1drk of the United
States Rubber Company.
This super trade-n,ark as it appears on
millions of articles of rubber, or the
cartons that contain the articles, is always
a blue-and-u Unite ribbon-label uith which
the seal is associated.
Behind this higher hallmark on rubber
stand all the power, genius. and skill of
the men who make up the productive
forces of this great rubber Company.
Behind it stand the determination and
the effort of small group of financiers and
business men of vision who have accom-
plished the hitherto impossible-the stand
ardization of rubber products by private
enterprise.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-02-11

Behind II stand the worlds largest and
most scientifically cultivated rubber plan
tations.
Behind it stand the largest and most
complete rubber laboratories and rubber
development departments In the world.
And also behind il stand vast manu-
featuring experience and public Goodwill
the Is years rubber experience and trade
marks of two of the United States Rubber
Companv's subsidiaries; the 50 years eI-
perience and trade marks of another; the
hat century's land more experience and
trade marks of some of the other of the
AZ great factories of which the United
States Rubber Company Is composed; and,
finally, the cumulative worldwide good
will raised on the solid foundation OF the
very same ideals for which the United
States Rubber Companys supey-trade-
mark now stands as the supreme exemplar
of super-quality in rubber products.
Moreover, this splendid Company has
the most important holdings of exclusive
patent processes in rubber wherewith to
turn the highly cultivated crude rubber
grown on its own plantations into the
super-stdndard of rubber merchandise OF
every kind, for which the United States
Rubber Company is justly renowned.
Who knows, perhaps the time may come
when the Government, as with the sterling
mark on silver, will place its hallmark
upon rubber.
And when it does, the Government will
naturally accept the super set by
the United States Rubber Company.
In the meantime, you Who use tires
solid or pneun,atic-or anything else made
of rubber-haue only to seek the Super
Trademark to be assured Of super-palue,
super quality. and super-serricea bility.

of the injunction suit brought BY L.

ton of whether Republican heads o.
city departments can hold over IN
office after a Democratic mayor has
nominated persons to fill their places.
in spite of the fact that such nominal

lansing OPPOSES
DRAFT OF ALIENS
Declares Treaties Revision is
Necessary First to Avoid
Embarrassment
Especial cablegram to Nippu Jill,

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 30.-In
answer to the request from the house
military committee that way be open
ed for drafting the Japanese, Chinese
and Italian aliens in the United States
for the national army, Secretary OF
State Lansing appeared today before
the house body and declared that con-
gress must not adopt any such plan
unless a revision of the existing treat
les with the three countries in ques.
ton Is secured.
The plan of the house military COM
mittee for drafting alien Japanese,
Chinese and Italians is that these
aliens on being drafted will be given
the full American citizenship, waving
the requirement Of first naturalization
papers.
That carrying out of any such plan
would bring the United States govern
ment into embarrassment with the gov
ernments Of Japan, China and Italy
was declared by Secretary Lansing to
be positively inevitable. The United
States, he added, will suffer reprisals
by these countries, should their sub
jects be drafted for service with the
American militia. :
