1t might be that such a situation
would result in the establishment OF
the zone system of fares, although the
situation cannot be accurately de-
termined until the lawyers here have
had the opportunity to digest the opinion
In the International case.
Another compiled ton Is that many of
the franchises were granted before the
constitutional amendment of 1874 went
into effect. Mr. Farley said he thought
the latest decision OF the Court Of APP
peals might be construed to mean that
In such cases, not affected by the con-
stitutional provision. the commission
might have the right to increase fares.
Asked as to whether in his opinion
the decision had any bearing on the sub
way and elevated lines in this city,
which are now operated under the dual
contracts between the transit companies
and the city, Mr.. Farley said that he
thought not, except as to-, show a dis
position on the part of the Court Of

sity for fare increases.

of the decision published that the Court

Anti-Saloon League Counsel
Demands Strict. Law to
Kill Bootlegging.
SENATORS SEE DANGER
Enforcement Committee Told
What Drys Want-Palmer
Worried Over Per Cent.

SpectdI Despofcn to The Sun.
WARRINGTON, July 1e.-Wayne b.
Wheeler. general counsel for the Anti
Saloon League, took definite issue with
the arguments of Samuel Untermyer be-
fore the Judiciary subcommittee Of the
Senate now engaged in framing enforce
ment legislation for the prohibition laws.
He argued that 2.75 per cent. beer should
not be legalized in view Of the fact that
thirty-one dry States and thirteen local
option States already had set far
lower rate per cent of alcoholic content,
usually one-half Of per cent. He also
challenged Mr.. Untermyer's statement
that State having defined It's legal code
to this extent OVERRIDE a Federal enact
ment of similar purport.
Mr.. Wheeler held II would be incon-
sistent for Congress to proclaim as legal
standard already declared to be IL
legal in many States. Also he said the
movement to allow ais per cent beer
would keep alive the liquor traffic in
definitely, a calamity which the prohi-
bition law had been framed to guard
against.
Mr.. Wheeler insisted to the Senators
that his organization was not DESTROYS
Of interfering with the personal posses
sion Of alcoholic beverages owned and
held by private persons who had pur-
chased such commodities prior to July
!. 1919, the beginning of national pro-
hibition, but he did hold that the law
should not be SO laxly drawn that the
bootlegger might protect himself in his
traffic by the rights of protection Of pri-
vate property guaranteed under the pro-
See Danger in Liberty.
"Bootleggers Will maintain their homes
as headquarters unless legislation is
passed which will prevenv private resi-
dences from becoming repositories for
stocks OF merchantable beverages" in
sisted Mr.. Wheeler.
Some of the committee were disposed
to look on Mr.. Wheeler's suggestions as
dangerous to the liberty of the person
and the rights of property. Mr.. Wheeler
insisted 1t would become actually a
necessity. On this view the committee.
including some of the extremely dr.
Senators. were shown to be out Of sym
patty with the counsellor. 1t seemed
to them that to draft a law which would
amplify the powers of the agents of
the department of Government charged
with enforcement of the dry law would
open too wide an avenue for blackmail-
ing activities and for malicious pur-
poses.
Prohibition enforcement Throughout,
the United States under the war time
dry law Is effective. in the opinion OF
Attorney-General Palmer. Mr.. Palmer
made 1t known to-day hat there were
practically no violations of the law
and no question of enforcement except
with respect to AIS beer. which was a
disputed question.

Governor Understood to RI

Nixon Is to Sign.
COURT OPINION DISCUSSED
Corporation Counsel Burr
Doubts That Buffalo Rul-
ing Applies Here.

Gov. Smith is taking an active inter-
est in the transit situation here and said
yesterday that he might issue a state
Snent coincident with the signing of the
two-cent transfer order by Public Ser
vice Commissioner Nixon.
1t is reported that the Governor II
highly indignant at the criticism that
has been levelled at him in certain quar-
tiers because OF the activity Of Commits
sioner Nixon In the matter Of solving
the financial troubles of the street rail-
roads. He Is understood to hold that the
granting OF an additional charge for
transfers Ia the only thing that will pre-
vent the disintegratior OF the transit
systems with the resulting return of a
straight Ave cent fare on each sep rate
line. To friends he IL said to have ex-
pressed the opinion that the action of
Commissioner Nixon. while regrettable.
is necessary.
The formal order granting a two cent
charge for transfers at ninety-nine Of
the 113 points on the New York Railway
lines where they are now issued for no
additional charge is now before Com
missioner Nixon for his signature. A
signed the order was denied by his sec
rotary.
1t was also denied that Commissioner
Nixon. who Ia now on his vacation, had
conferred with the Governor in the Hotel
Biltmore yesterday in regard to the or
der. The Commissioner. 1t was said, had
not been in the city since he went to a
New Jersey summer resort a week ago

next Tuesday.

The basis for the story, II was ex-
planned. had probably been the fact that
Terence Farley. counsel for the commits
sion, who drew tho transfer order, Wis
tied the Governor at the Biltmore. Soon
afterward the Governor went to Albany.
There he said It was untrue that I've
had conferred with the commissioner,
but that he might have something to
say in a day or two.
Lacking the opportunity to read a
complete transcript of the opinion of
the Court OF Appeals in the Interna-
tional Railway Company of Buffalo.
neither Corporation Counsel Burr nor
Mr.. Farley were willing to be specific

ever, that from what he had seen In

that while the Court of Appeals had not
overruled itself in the QuinSy (Roches-
teri decision. It had held, that in all
cases where an increase by the Public
Service Commission was not prohibited
under the so-called constitutional con-
sent" provision the commission did have
power to increase fares.

here would have the right to grant an

FORD BUSINESS OCCUPIES LARGE
 BUILDING HERE

There is one organization in Phoenix which leads it's class in the entire southwest. That is the Ford organiza- ton maintained by Ed Rudolph on East Adams street. Embracing as it does a building which covers 30,000 square feet of space. and employing Q large number of men, the local Ford headquarters is not to be equaIled any where west of Chicago. MT. Rudolph has always been one of the most pro- gressive business men in the state. Starting in a small way he has built up the present efficient organization through sheer effort and ability to or ganize.
 In addition to handling the Ford ear, the Rudolph organization is en- deavoring to increase the crop output of the Salt River Valley, by placing as many Fordson tractors in this district as possible. Since the advent of the Fordson, which is not only as we'll built as are all Ford products, but is ex- ceedingly economical. they have been very popular in this valley A large number of car loads of Fordsons have been brought here and placed in the valley. Demonstration of their ability has been made and they have never lhuen dOWn.
 The parts are all enclosed running in oil The fact that none of the working parts are open to the dust which con stantly arises from farm fields makes them free from repairs to a larger de- gree than enjoyed by any other ma chine of like calibre.
 Although the average Ford product is not much in need of repair, such cases will arise. To meet such emer- gencies. MT. Rudolph has always main- tained a large corps of efficient work men. all experts on the Ford, and who know their business from start tc finish.
 The Rudolph Branch at Glendale has grown with the main establishment. Ii was founded several years ago to take care of the business developed in that section of the valley, and has aided materially in the growth of Glendale.

HEAVY PRESSURE PROTECTS TIRES

What lubricating oil is to roller bearings. compressed air is to auto tires, says J. A. Shaulis of the West ern Auto Supply Agency, distributors for Pharis Paramoid tires, and yet how many people ever consider it in that light
 No one would think of using a car without having the bearings lubri- cated, because they know that without oil friction would quickly bring a lot of trouble, and yet they don't seem to realize that without air or the proper amount of air in tire this self-same friction is developed to 8 high degree which quickly ruins a tire.
 A tire is built with one layer of fabric over another and motorists are warned or advised to keep a certain pressure in them, which keeps these layers of fabric firmly in place, thus doing away with or minimizing fric- tion, but if this pressure is allowed to go down, the weight of the car will tend to flatten the tire, which loosens up these layers one from another, anl then there is trouble ahead for the mo- torist-
 It does seem, however says Mir Shaulis. that no matter how much is said or written about this, there are hundreds and thousands of motorists who keep ignoring the advice entirely even when they see the high mileage that is obtained by those who do keep their tires properly inflated. During the. past few weeks a nun Der of people came back for another Pharis tire and say incidentally that they had secured 10000, 12,00O and even higher mileage from former Pharis tires and in every instance il has been found that they have all beer particular about keeping the air pres sure up.

The latter was recom- mended by the organizing commit tee which declared that the 4S hour week allowed more elasticity in the arrangement of hours of work, fa- cilitates the adoption of half holidays on Saturdays and of weekly rest day. A number of the labor delegates, how ever, plan to make a fight for the straight eight-hour day.

Tips To Auotoists
In Drilling

In Drilling
 Kerosene should be used in drilling. roaming or turning malleable iron or aluminium. On the other hand turpen- tine should be used instead of the oil for drilling hard steel, as it will enable rapid drilling of the metal.
 Locking Nut
 It is easy to lock a nut securely by having the bolt a little longer than is needed and then rivet the protecting end little after the nut is screwed in place. When the nut is to be removed it is necessary to file off the riveted part.
 Cleaning the MuffIer
 In cleaning the muffler, after the part has been disassembled and the parts cleaned with kerosene it is well 10 go over all the holes designed to break up the gas with a sharp punch or fine taper reamer, to make sure that these holes have not been reduced in size by accumulation of burned oil or carbon.
 Polished Steel
 When polished iron or steel become iusterless they may be restored with ammonia soapsuds and a stiff brush The parts are rinsed thoroughly and dried by heat. Next a copious amount or sweet oil is applied and then pow dered qutcklime is dusted on. The lime is permitted to stay on for 2 days and IS then cleaned off with stiff brush me metal is polished with a softer brush and with soft cloths until the lustre is restored. If the lime is left on the iron or steel may be kept from rust almost indefinitely.
 Use of Taps
 "A tap should never be used in a c6red or rough hole. A heavy flat drill should be run through to take out the scale, sand or projections. Plenty of good lard should be used in cutting threads with a die. Very often a die tap is ruined when it is first used, sim ply because there is no oil on the work Taps should never be used without plenty of good oil A tap will gauld in any metal and tear off the threads unless it is kept well oiled.
 Sharpening Files
 Worn files may be sharpened by placing them in a solution of sulphuric acid and water, made in proportions of one part acid to two of water. The files may be left over night, after WHICH tney Spoulu pe rlnseu III cleai water The acid should be put in an earthen vessel.
 Tops
 Mohair tops should be cleaned ire quently by dusting off and brushing briskly with a stiff brush On the other hand, pantasoote tops are best cleaned with a soft brush dipped in water fir which little ammonia has been placed after which the top should be rubbed dry. Pantasote curtains may be treat. cd in the same way. Do not use gaso. line or kerosene to clean the tops.
 Cloth Upholstery
