May Keep British ships.

The departure of p. A. S. Franklin.
president of the International Mercantile
Marine, for Europe yesterday on BUSH
ness led Wall Street to assume that his
trip abroad might lead to a resump-
ton Of the negotiations with the British
Government for the sale OF Marines
ships operating under British registry.
In circles close to insiders in Marine It
was declared yesterday that the Wall
Street theory OF President Franklins
trip Is mistaken one, and they point
out that many OF the corporations d.
rectors have changed their views radi-
cally regarding the shipping situation
since the armistice was signed and the
deal with the United States Shipping
Board declared Off. 1t is known that
the Marine directors do not favor any
more long drawn out negotiations, and
some of them say plainly that now that
the shipping situation appears to be
clearing up the company will be able to
use its own ships advantageously and
probably make more out of them in the
long run than II they we're disposed of
to a British syndicate or even to the
United States Shipping Board.

Pneumatic Tires On
Trucks Reduce Toll
On Mckinley Bridge

J. P. Murphy. o. the Firestone COM
pany, now a guest Of J. L Curtis
manager Of the local branch Of the
Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. relates
an unusual incident concerning the
practical value Of the new style Giant
pneumatic tires for trucks. He cites
that the Mckinley Bridge Co. Of St
Louis. No. has reduced the toll charge
on trucks equipped with Giant pneu-
matte tires approximately 80 percent.
or from 80 cents per trip for solid
equipped trucks TO IS cents for those
equipped with Giant pneumatfcs.
This Mr.. Murphy takes to be posi-
tive proof and actual recognition OF
the fact that the big pneumatics
realty reduce the vibration and alb
serb but do not transmit shocks.
II. as the Mckinley Bridge Co ad-
mits. they are easier on the bridge. IL
follows naturally that they are the
best possible protection TO the truck
md its load.

peace in the Balkans would follow
