BUYS ]. 5. TIRES,
FOR THEY ARE GOOD

At the Chicago auto show, United
States Tire company official was asked

Gle OF some of our good customers
such as Standard oil. Armour Co..
Nwif. & Co. Morris Co. Wilson &
Co. and Libby, Mcneil g. Libby.
'sThese concerns operate on a scfenr-
dc basis and even in such matters as
the purchasing OF tires they use all
the knowledge of their experts and
practical men. and when they decide on
Omitted states tires II is because they
consider them to be good tires.
Selling tires to great corporation

equipped bureau of standards, is pre-
pared to cut through to the very vitals
In it's examination into tire quality.
THESE government tests were followed
by tremendous orders for United States
tires both from the American govern
meut and its allies"

GOMPERS PLANS

Labor Leader Expected to
Support President in
Crisis.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.

Washington. D. c.. Aug. e.
Samuel Gompers. personal friend
Of president Wilson and Americas
representative on the various COM
missions at the Paris peace conference
relating to labor problems. came back
to Washington Thursday and went 10
work promptly to bring about a
{ peaceful solution of the wage cOntro-
Versy between the railroad shopmen
and the government
Mr.. Gompers planned to confer later
/ today with the committee Of railroad
shOpmen- His advice will be potent
with them It is not unlikely that
Mr.. GOmpers Will favor the presi-
dents plea because his efforts in be-
half Of labor in the last six years

they now have.
fled with their present wages and the
presidents honeyed words did not
produce much of an impression on the
committee which went TO the white
house on Monday. A strike vote is
now being taken.
1t is really not a question of whether
the shopmen accept or reject Mr. Will
sons answer, but a question Of
whether or not they will give their
leaders authority to call a strike. II
that becomes necessary. In other
words, the shopmen are giving the
leaders the right and opportunity TO
negotiate. Mr.. Gompers will no doubt
seek a compromise
Compromise Suggested
And, perhaps. it will be an effort TO
obtain a pledge Of higher wages If
the cost OF living is not reduced with
in specified period, as Mr.. Wilson
so confidently hopes il will be.
Just now the railroad administra-
ton is much more perturbed about
else There il is a. sympathy strike
with workmen on a road not now
under federal control.
The announcement from the rail-
road brotherhood headquarters in
Cleveland that the brotherhoods
would support the government in that
controversy unless the strikers re-
turned to work is expected to help
solve the situation On the whole, the
prospects Of a favorable solution OF
the larger problems involved in the
shipments controversies is believed to
be brighter since the return of MI

ASKS If PROPERTY RIGHT

Judge Hardison Does Not Decide,
But Holds Alleged House
breakers.

case of housekeeping heard in
the United States branch of Police
Court yesterday afternoon, before
Judge Robert Hardison, in which five
colored youths were the defendants
and forty-one quarts of whisky was
the property alleged to have been
stolen, raised the question, suggested
by the court, as to whether, under
the bone-dry law, property right
could be claimed in the stolen whis-
ky by the man making the informa-
tion..
Emory Lewis. ,co1ored, charged that
the whisky had been taken from his
home, at 1859 Covington street.
Judge Hardison said that as he read
the Reed amendment ortbone-dry law
the right of property ownership or
title to contraband whisky was de-
MED. A more careful reading of the
information on. which the defendants
were charged showed Ftlat it was
based in major part on housebreak-
ing. the property owpeE;ship in the
whisky, valued at $4g9. being a minor
feature of the charge, although the
number of quarts and their. total
value were specifically set forth in
the information.
Judge Harrison will not pass upon
the question, inasmuch as the hearing
was a grand jury case.
The defendants. William Henry
Thomas. Roy Curtis Frederick Ma
thews, Andrew Brown and Andrew
Baylor, were held for the grand jury
in bond of $500 each.
