The Labor Party in politics IS
now more than a project n has
already taken part in municipal
elections.
The Prohibition party, the So
cialist party, and others have been
with Ms for awhile. besides The two
great divisions Of political thought
But all of these have been alike
in one feature Of their purpose.
Professedly, at any rate, their aim
has been the veal and security Of
the whole country. They claim
that their policy Is the best for
America, not for themselves cN-
clusivcly.
The Labor party makes no such
profession. u disclaims any inter

Another invention is gun to Ire signals from submerged submarines. IL send a star shell 300 feet into the air. ....
 Several kinds of smoke screens were Invented, most of them for the pur- pose of baffling U-boats. A powerful flare equal to million candle power was another achievement of the naVl inventors which was used with great effect against enemy submarines waiting OH the surface at night to attack merchant ships. These flares, suddenly ignited, turned night into day, and in the Straits of Dover alone seventeen U-boats were caught by their aid and sunk.
 The work of devgeloping these in ventions was carried on by the Royal Naval Experimental Station near Lon- don. It's staff comprised of 25 officers and 1,O50 men, all experts either in research or constructional work, most of them being chemists or engineers.

TIRE INDUSTRY IS FORGED TO FOLLOW
 FREQUENT CHANGES
Vehicle Changes Must Be Followed by Readjust-
 .ment of Tires. ],

It is doubtful if any other industry in our country is called upon to tack le so many new problems as the tire industry. Vehicular conditions are rapidly changing and tire develop ment has had to keep up with these changes. And thanks to the initiative of our American tire engineers. every kind of motor propelled vehicle has been provided with a suitable tire.
 With the steady advance of the mo- tor truck into diversified fields Of service it became quite obvious that no one style of tire would best meet all conditions. Among others there was recognized need for a pneumatic tire for trucks. A
 Some truck manufacturers a'I truck users have been seeing relief through the use of dual pneumatics two tires on each rear wheel Many passenger busses and pieces Of fire apparatus are so equipped.
 But this arrangement has its dis- advantages which largely offset tne cushioning benefits secured, accord

BLISTER" NOVEL INVENTION ID
 PROTECT SHIPS
Other Effective War Weap-
 ons Were Being Tried When Peace Came.

London. Feb. 3. Correspondence oi The Associated Press )-One of the most successful devices invented by British naval experts in the war tlme was one known as blister, ana served to protect ships against tor pedoes. It is an outer steel casing fitted to the sides of ships. All of it's technical details of construction have not been revealed. but naval experts assert that ships equipped with blsters run no greater risk from undersea attacks than from surface fighting dangers. In the War the Germans torpedoed several blister ships, but in every case, it IS asserted, the vessels were able to reach port and be repaired.
 Sir F.. II. T. D'Eyncourt, director of naval construction, invented the blister, which was first attached to four old cruisers. Patiently the navy waited for test for two years. then, in June, 1917, the cruiser Grafton while steaming at ten knots was struck amidships bv torpedo fired from a German submarine only thir- ty yards distant. The blister, which stuck out from the cruisers side about fifteen feet, exploded the torpedo, and the Grafton steamed back to port with only a slight list
 Improvements were made on the blisters and thev were fitted to the sister monitors Erebus and Terror. Both these vessels, mounting 15-inch guns, bombarded the Belgian coast Fov ~~or%k, no%L 1vo~o %o,.voIoaJ with ing week and but for the protecting blisters they would have been sunk. Three torpedoes struck the Erebus two hitting the fore part of the mon- itor where the blister tapers off. As a precaution the Erebus was beached, but it was afterward found that she was less severely damaged than had been thought and she was subsequent ly repaired. No ship ever before sur. vived three torpedoes.
 The navy now has about fifty gblis. ter ships in commission. including some of the first battle cruiser squad ron. The new dreadnaughts Rodney Howe and Hood are being fitted also with blisters. i
 A self-propelling proiectile charged WltH OOV POuIluS Ol At IN. l. was per fected by the naval experts only q short time before the. armistice, was signed. It is believed to have strength ened sfaater., lily the poweraand effect iveness of the British fleet. The pro- jectile can be discharged without con cussion from small boats or light platform, exploding on the cantact or when fitted with a special revice below the water, thus serving the pur- pose of g depth charge.
 New Flame Thrower.
 An apparatus for throwing a flame for distance of 240 feet, as water is thrown from hose, was rigged on one of the vessels that took part in the raid on Zeebrugge. But before :it could be used shell from the enemy batteries put it out of action.

IOWA COAL MINES
 WORKING BUT 2
 DAYS EACH WEEK
Officials Attribute Cause to Failure of Railroads to
 Take Quotas.

! Des Moines, Ia., Feb. 27.--Iowa's coal mines, all bituminous, are operat- ing on an average of only two days a week, mine workers officials say. They add that the idleness is due principally to failure of many rail- roads to take more than their mini mum contract quotas and to the un- usually mild weather.
 J. c. Lewis of Albia, president of the Iowa Mine Workers, estimated that normally the railroads purchase 70 per cent of all the coal mined in the state..
 The mine workers charge that some railroads which in other years used Iowa coal for operation in this state and Nebraska, are now getting their coal in Illinois, and not only consum- i ing it largely on lines operated in Iowa, but also are carrying it into i Nebraska for use there
 l MT. Lewis said that five times in one section with 8 normal daily pro- duction of $500 tons, previously used almost entirely by the railroads, now sell only 300 tons daily to the roads.
 President Lewis declared that min CTS at the comparatively few mines owned by railroads are given more work than those at privately owned mines. He said this indicated that there can be no objection to the quail ity of Iowa coal. No Explanation. q can offer no explanation for the tendency of railroads to buy their coal !. outside the state, except that it is likely to result in a market reduction in coal prices. due to the limited de- mand," he said.
 l More than 9,OOO,O0O tons of coal were produced in Iowa in 1917; sev- !, eral idle months cut production mater ially in 1918, and this year promises like slump unless conditions are re- medied, according to operators and miners.
 The lack of work has caused many miners to quit the state, Lewis de- clared. Two thousand miners have left in the past two years. Approximately 14,000 remain. They are averaging, for their two days work weekly( har- dly more than $lO, Lewis said.
 Curtailment of employment has worked hardship on many miners, Lewis declared, adding that many had been forced to part with their Liberty Bonds. ts;

 Inequalities of the road surface throw undue proportion of the load on one or the ther the tires, in case f puncture one. tire often carries the strain of the whole load" he ex- plains.
 No two makes of tires are exactly the same size and cross section, and therefore, efen if road conditions are absolutely perfect, one tire carries more of the load than the other.
 identical air pressures cannot be maintained in any two tires in actual service. @
 "The removal of the inside tire ne- cessitates the removal of both tires, which means double work in making tire change.
 ''All of these difficulties are obviat- ed by the use of single pneumatic tires and many benefits added that duals never provided.
 "We are now making Goodyear pneumatic cord tires for motor trucks in sizes 36x6, 3Sx7, 40x9, and 44x1O, accommodating all trucks up to five tons capacity. They are made in the same manner as cord tires for passen- ger cars, except that there are more plies of cords, the sidewalks are stur- dier, and the tread much thicker. "They permit greater speed. which means that truck ill general use may make more trips daily. Not , only are these tires proving their worth by providing greater cushion ing and freedom from tire trouble. but they greatly reduce repair ex- pense and increase the life of the

truck.
 "The foremost tire engineers in the country have declared in favor of the single pneumatic tire for trucks and some have predicted that within a few years practically all ton and one&and one-half ton trucks will leave the factory on pneumatics.
 When the United States entered the war 1t was found desirahl, to equip considerable number of tracks with pneumatic tires, and the question of single or dual tire equipment came up for settlement. It is interesting to note that the signal corps; which operated many trucks during the war, declared for the single pneumatic and used thousands of them to secure the mobility of operation which the service required"

HAPPINESS OF MAN AND WOMAN
 ARE DESCRIBED
Professor Says That Prime Purpose Is the Rearing of Robust Children-Causes For
 Divorces

CHICAGO, Nov. 12.-Happiness of man and woman is only of secondary affair in marriage, the prime purpose of which is to produce robust child ren, Professor William J. Durant, of Columbia University said in a lee ture at the Sinia Social Center here. There there are no children there is no marriage" he added. N =.
 Free love is impossible, the profes- sor said, because conquests of a man are praised by other men, but if a woman had had ono free love affair she is held in ridicule and belittled by her associates"
 Most men now marry after they have become incapable of love-" the professor continued, "and then comes your divorce.
 Courts say that divorces are due to cruelty. drunkennas and half a dozen other things, but they are all wrong. The three fundamental req sons for divorce are:
 "1. The natural vanity of both sexes.
 "2. Psychological incompatibility
 "3. Lack of children"

WORKING HOURS
 ARE DISCUSSED
 AT CONFERENCE
(Continued from Page One)

passing the eight-hour day bill, the conference was told by George T Barnes, member of the British War Cabinet, and government delegate. /
 Workers in Great Britain will never go back to old conditions, he said, adding that in view of this, the public had right to expect that labor would give it's whole hearted cooperation to increase production to the largest degree possible, and make good the losses of the last five years.
 MT. Barnes urged a declaration in favor of 4S-hour week instead of a straight eight hour day, as more easi- ly put into effect and avoiding the difficulties of providing for overtime.
 What we are after is more leisure for the workers" he said.
