London, Aug, 30.-Rumors Of an inn

America were denied here today by
United States Senator james Hamilton
Lewis of Illinois, in a speech at the
American luncheon club. He also ex
pressed his opposition to a statement OF
the allied war aims, with the exception
Of a statement Of general terms.
IF circumstances yer justify a
change in the existing Anglo American
relations he said. 'tPresiden, ellison

be no diplomatic juggling and no secret

just as a sample as to how stories
can grow and how rumor will some
times magnify things, is the story Of
the two men from Astoria who were
here to secure men to work in the
Astoria Marine works. The rumor
this morning was that every employe
of Wick Bros. had left for Astoria
on a promise of wages of $40 a day.
That no one would be permitted to
buy more than five gallons of gasoline
a week. That no more pleasure ears
could be repaired and that the garages
would not be permitted to employ
mechanics.
After considerable inquiry the ru.
mors sifted down to the following
plain facts: Two men of Wick Bros.
garage were employed by the Astoria
men and their pay instead of being
$40 a day, will be $40 a day. One
other garage reported one Of their men
missing this morning but didn't know
where he had gone Others said the
men had talked with the Astoria agents
but nothing had been decided
The three representatives of gaso-
line in the city have no information
limiting the sale of gasoline and Wick
Bros. said they had received no orders
from the government to put a limit
of five gallons a week to each car,
There is some truth in the matter OF
repairing ears. No garage will be per.
mitted to buy steel for repair work
on pleasure ear and there will be no
welding in the hop. One may buy en-
tirely new parts for the ear but there
will be 40 repairing Of broken stee.

only to pleasure. ears. Garages are per
mitted to buy steel TO be used in the
repairs of trucks, tractors and farming

men who left from Wick Bros.
