Lee De Forest
 The ''hum" which has made the al- terating current objectionable for this purpose in the. past and has caused the use of direct current, necessitat- ing high powered generating stations, has been elirninatedSby his new de- vice, the inventor asserted.

Masonic Temple in
 Little Rock Burns
 With S3O0,00O Loss

Little Rock, Aug. 27.-Fire of un- known origin destroyed the Masonic Temple, a seven-story building and two adjoining buildings at 3 o'clock this morning. The total loss is estl- mated at about S300,000 with ap- proximately 60 per cent of the loss covered by insurance.
 The Masonic Temple was owned by the grand lodge and was the home of the local lodge. The loss on the building is estimated at $8O,00O, cov- cred by insurance. The Exchange National bank which occupied the first floor suffered loss of $4O,OO0 also covered by insurance.
 The Electric Shop, branch of the Little Rock Railway and Electric com- pany had sufficient insurance to GOV CT loss of $10,000, while J. B.. Strauss and company, clothlers, sui fered a $25,000 loss partly covered by insurance.
 Over forty other occupants of the building suffered losses.
 The burning of the Masonic Temple marked the passing of Little Rocks oldest "skyscraper," the seven-story building which, when it was erected, caused the comment that it was "seven-story building in four-story town" At that time there was no building in Little Rock over four stories.

HAMS ENGLISH
 INTERESTS WERE
 FAVORED BY J. s.
Say Oil Bill Would Make "Peons' of Westerners, Enriching
 British.

Washington, Aug. Exchanges that the interior department has made discrilninations in the west against American oil interests ln favor of English oil and potash ln-- terests were made in telegram read in the senate today by Senator Lafollette, republican, Wisconsin, during an attack on the oil, gas and coal land leasing bill. The telegram was dated Los Angeles, California. The bill would make "peons" and tenants of westerners for the English government now establishing a com mercial empire in the United States, the telegram alleged. We demand, the telegram added, that investiga- tion be made of the $15O,0O0 alleged to have been paid to have the interior clear list for patent mill lions of dollars of oil land now sub ject to patent which has recently become the property of the English government.
 "We want shown" the message continued, "why that out of 13,O00,- GOO acres of oil land withdrawn by presidential proclamation from entry, excluding American citizens, that on- ly 160 acres affected English hold ings in California. We want to know why the interior department drove American locaters off of potash lands on technicalities and patented 10000 acres to an English corpora tion."
 Another telegram read by the senator from Fred w. Parks of Dem yer, Colo.,< said the bill was a Standard Oil measure and menaces western oil interests"

Dario Resta Has Sunbeam
Famous Racing Driver Repre-.
scnts English Car

Ono Of the interesting exhibits at
the Commodore will be that of the
Resta Motors, Inc, with their Sun
beam cars. This well-known English
make has never before been exhibited
in the United States. The success of
the Sunbeam motor both in aviation
and automobile work won it an en-
viable reputation during the war. One
of the recent testimonials to this motor
is the fact that the British military
dirigible R-34 was equipped with five
of them on its transatlantic trip.
Dario Resta, president of the Resta
Motors Company, says that he expects
to specialize on the six-cylinder chassis
in America, although he shortly ex-
poets shipment of the four-cylinder
model. In this four-cylinder model
Mr.. Resta broke all the worlds records
from 100 to 1000 miles in 1912 Manu-
facturers have observed closely the
English idea of low lines with ample
road clearance. A very unusual feature
of the Sunbeam in which Mr.. Resta
broke the records which had been
established up till 1912 was that the
four-cylinder model used was a stock
model. instead of a specially construct
ed racing type. The Sunbeam is plan
ming on sending a car for next years
Indianapolis 500-mile race, and they
are also entering a team of cars for
the Grand PriN, which is to be held in
France next year. Mr.. Resta expects
to drive in the indianapolis race.

owner Of inesc-chauffeured car

was occupied by passengers. Unlike

Here is the editorial:

counts and letters Of protest and con-

"Such q condition Of affairs hits
heavily at the motoring fraternity and
puts motoring in general under a cloud.
1t is the more to be regretted in that
the motoring public in general is not
to blame, but that the stigma which is
brought to rest upon it is the result Of
carelessness, criminal or to less de-

Rubay Shows Coach Work
Interesting Exhibit at Salon by
Famous Builders

The four cars to be shown by Rubay
at the Salon, name widely known in
connection with fine coachwork, will

the feminine motorists. The seven
passenger berlinc, on Cole chassis of
127inch wheelbase, is an unusually
roomy body. The upholstery of the
Rubay pillow type has three cushions
across the rear seat. The drivers
compartment is trimmed in black
leather. Another model is smart

toria top.

black leather; the interior is finished in
natural wood and cane. This model
has three doors, two on the right and
