Paris. Feb. 25.-Revolutionary chang
es in international naval laws which,
fitting in with the rules of the league
Of nations, would make war virtually
impossible, are now under discussion.
Regulations under which munitions are
shipped from neutrals to warning coun-
tries would be completely overturned,
Under their operation, "freedom of
the seas" would not be theoretical,
but real.
The United Press is able to state
that the principal points favored by
the peace delegates regarding mum
lions shipments in the future are:
Each nation shall be held respon-
sible for any unneutral act by its cit
izens.
2-All contrabrand must be estab-
lished at the outbreak Of the war and
lists cannot lie changed during the per
iod of hostilities.
AS carrying contrabrand naturally
is forbidden, the flag of non warning
nation flying over a ship would be a
guarantee that she was not carrying
munitions or other prohibited mater
ials.
4-If ship arouses suspicion and 10
stopped within restricted area, search

papers to determine her nationality.
Subject to Punishment
5-If a ship of non warning power
is discovered carrying contrabrand

council recommends
1t is obvious that under such rules

buying munitions from a non-warring
power by payment Of enormous prices
and obtaining shipment through pay

done-would be eliminated by point

NO MORE TAX DODCINc
ON AUTOS TO GET BY
House Favors Sl2 Yearly Tax
For FOrds And SIS For
Packards.

Owners of automobiles stand a fine
chance of paying just double the amount
Of auto tax as in past years, beginning
with July of this year. And those
who own autos and have failed to re-
port them to the tax assessor and have
paid no tax, will find that tax lodging
under the new system, will not work.
In the debate in the house relative
to taxing autos for road purposes, it
was stated that fully so per cent of the
automobiles in the state paie no tax
whatever, simply because the owners
made TO returns to the tax collector.
1t was also stated that $6.61 was the
average amount received from each au-
to in taxes the past year and tnat the
average assessment for an automobile
was $4,000. This will all be changed
in the present taxing bill, passed by
the house yesterday and now in the
senate for consideration.
Under the new law, it is proposed
that automobiles and motor vehicles are
rot to be assessed as personal property.
There can be no tax dodging as every

Objection was made to the high Ii

Somehow or other Armistice day will always be quite definitely linked in my mind with the subject of alarm clocks. On the night of November 10 1918, l retire in Detroit with the re- sponsibility in mind of attending an Important meeting in Toledo-60 miles distant over a rather vigorously po- Heed road-at s o'clock the following morning. My bosom companion on that occasion was a strident and of ficiouS alarm clock of a variety na- tionally advertised to cultivate habits of promptness and dispatch in even the most slothful dreamer, and I re- tired with it's hands pointed fatefully at the hour of five.
 How I was awakened out of thai night by a national alarm of world proportions, when joyous people pro- claimed their gladness and thanksgiv- ing at the release of humanity from the death throes and horror of world war is a story in itself The motor drive into the night in an anxiety to reach home to be with my own people while the news was still only a few hours old. The lights in the houses, the celebrants in the streets, the high way lined with people, each expressing | in their own way the relief that was in every heart. The route that car- ried me by the huge shipwards of the Great Lakes where men had labored feverishly oni va scant few hours before to turn into the hands of the navy the tonnage necessary to sustain and strengthen, that great bridge of ships far flung across the Atlantic,- Var6l hlaRLr uyith oh tfn nz ! themselves hoarse because the thing" was gone-gone to its death-and was l now retiring broken and defeated with a knowledge that God still ruled and that man in all his might could not defeat righteousness and decency. Every mile of that road held it's story. Then the arrival in Toledo to find a great plant capable of producing a thousand automobiles a day that has laid aside the development of those tools of business and social life to bend every energy to the production of the grim tools of war,-gun carriages, mu- nitions, motors for tanks,-engines of death and destruction. I wish I had the pen to describe that plant as il looked to me that morning as 1t reared its great buildings in a panorama new ly dedicated to industry. Every detail of 1t stands out clear and decisive in by memory of the early hours of that morning. The thousands of men and
 women who had left work bench and machine and marched into the streets
 mad with joy, bearing in their hands the colors of united nation torn from
 factory walls where they had stood guard for many weary months mute evidence of purpose and resolve Ii
 was as though they welcomed back ir thought the 5000 men scattered over
 battlefield and camp who had Jeff
 those factory desks and benches at the
 call of world duty.
 The deferred meeting-the staid
 business men who guided this great industry and who laid down their pa pers as their men laid down then
 tools to join with them in their rejoic- ing-men whose duty 1t was to takc up on the morrow the rehabilitation ot an arrested commerce.

HEADLIGHT GLARE
 PROBLEM FUR ALL
 PEOPlE ID SOLVE

The elimination Of the giaring head light, the last remaining unsolved fea- ture of the modern automobile, is a movement in which the entire public as well s.s the automobile industry, should be Vitally interested.
 There are 5.00O,G00 cars in use in America according to the best avail able statistics. The average of pas sengers carried by each car has been fixed by experts at three and a half persons. So that. figuring on this average. there are from 1T,000.O60 to 20,000 persons directly interested in the giaring headlight menace, to say noth- ing of the rest of the population which travels the roads and highways on foot or in other vehicles.
 New York and California have pointed the way with the only Scien- tlfically prepared laws on this subject in the country These laws were drawn from recommendations of the Society of Illuminating Engineers, the great Illuminating authorities in the country who made the recommenda tions only after long and exhaustive tests and who are the recognized au- thors of the present uniform regula- tory laws governing railroad head lamps.
 This society. in it's report submitting the recommendations, said that the ideal solution 10 the problem rested with head!dmps capable O. being con trOlied so as 70 direct the projected beam or rays either upward or down. ward as the occasion might require Devices embodying these principles and passing the drastic requirements of the New York law 100 per cent, are in use on only two makes of cars in this country today, Lexington and Cadillac.

While at the Bethle- hem factory Stromberg, who is a truck engineer of note. made thorough in vestigation of the truck which he is now distributing and is of the opinion that 1t represents the greatest value now on the market for the amount of money invested.
 In making the change to the Over land Arizona company. Stromberg is making one more chapter in a long and varied career closely linked with the motor truck game. He has been field engineer for three truck factories, the Thomas B. Jeffry company, the Gar ford Motor Car company, and the Wichita Falls Motor company. Strom- berg spent five months with Pershing in Mexico, in charge of a large section of the punitive expedition's truck diyi- sion. While there he had ample op portunities to study the performance of various makes of trucks, note tReir defects, and gain experience which has been invaluable during his connection with the retail end of the business.

This time the hands of the alarm were painted at 4.30, for at o'clock I must needs be at the door of certain ga- rage where I was to meet four others on an errand closely linked with every episode of the year before-trying out of new car that had come as the product of the great factory that had been privileged to lay aside the tools of war just year before almost to the hour.
 All of that year had gone into the work of rehabilitation, the Changing over," the finishing of tasks begun, the shaping of great industrial plans into new channels, and here was the result. 1 the thing upon which millions had 1 been spent and which was to be the handiwork of the thousands of human beings engaged in tasks of peace. Here was the product upon which q great business was again to be built and whose value would run into the | hundreds of millions. Do you wonder that l sensed the drama of the situa- ton.

 It would not have seemed fitting to give to this car some trivial task, so we had planned a trip, my first, to the Big Bear lake country by way of the Motave, and were to come back by the Rim of the World and we had en- tered into little compact to make the trip complete and to dine together not later than o'clock that same evening at the starting point, Pasadena, with a perfect score.

NEW LEACH JAR BUILT ON COAST
 ID MAKE ADVENT HERE SHORTLY

New automobiles placed on the mar ket always create a great deal of in terest, but when new machine comes out combining all the high-class char acteristics of the most exclusive cars made in the east and the new car is made in the west by western men for western people. then it's advent is due 10 cause more than the ordinary con versation.
 Bringing the message of the new Leach car designed and built in Los Angeles, Glenn D. HartZler has arrived in Phoenix for the purpose of looking over the field with view of locating an agency here.
 The Leach is built in Los Angeles. It is a new car and like all new prod nets is has taken advantage of the mistakes made by it's older competitors in the field. According 10 Mir. Hertzler the people of the Pacific coast have long felt the need of a western made car, especially designed and built for western conditions. To meet this de- mand the Leach has been brought into existence. It is a high class car from start to finish.
 The Leach company has employed skilled engineers and workmen to put the car out and from the looks of photographs brought here by Hertzler they have outdone themselves, for it is indeed a wonderful looking car. The company is operating with Los Angeles capital and is endeavoring to put on the market the most com pete standard custom built motor car that is made in this country.
 The specifications of the new car embody Continental Red Seal motor with S1s and 5h inch stroke develop Ing 60 horsepower. sufficient to carry car of that size over tho toughest roads or through the deepest mud. IL also has decided hill climbing abil- fly.
 The deep frame of the ear impresSes one with its massiveness and stability The object Of this heavy construction is to provide foundation for the body which will prove rigid under the rough est usage.
 Another feature of the car is the de luxe top. Leach tops have estab- lished a reputation for beauty of de- sign and handiness of operation second to none in the country. They have been designed to conform with the pro portions of the car as well as to har- monize with the finish. The top has sliding curtains. which are raised and lowered at will with a small amount of effort. In addition there is slid ing plate glass window for the real compartment. It is possible to close e the car entirely within few seconds or make it semi closed as the driver may desire.
 Wire wheels and cord tires are standard equipment or all models. The color desired is optional. the company standing ready to produce a car in any hue or combination of colors desired by the purchaser.
 The new factory occupied by tht company in Los Angeles is on Santa Fe street and covers an area of l: acres.
 The men behind it are all actiyel! engaged in turning out a car whici they believe will meet an eXtremel! popular demand in the west. The, have invested their own money in tn, enterprise and are confident the wes tern people vii stand behind them II their efforts.
