For tire making is chiehyla mat

All men know Brunswick stand

Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce

with the maker how far he wishes
to go-how much he can afford

For there are no secrets nor pat

Pleaded That Those Be Left Alone Who Are Trying to
 Do Their Best. ADDRESSES HOUSE
 OF COMMONS TODAY Not True That United States and Europe Have
 Been at Variance.

London, April 16-The AL lied representatives in Paris have arrived at a complete un- derstanding on the great fun damentaI questions that would effect peace with Germany, Premier Lloyd George deoIar- cd in addressing the House of Commons today. The Allies had formulated their demands. and ha hoped that by the end of next week they would be presented.
 The premier vigorously attacked those who had attempted to SOW dissension. distrust and suspicion be- tween the nations whose cordiality and good will towards each other was essen tial." He could not conceive of q. worse crime, he declared. at a time when nothing could save the world but keeping the nations to- gether.
 Tt is not true that the United States and Europe have been at vari- ance," MT. Lloyd George declared adding that no one could have treat ed more sympath eticaIIy the peculiar problems and special susceptibilitias of Europe than President Wilson.

WILSON REMAINS
 FRANCES FRIEND
Time Come to Destroy Legend Regarding His
 Attitude.

Paris, April 16-The time has come to destroy the lengend tending to re- present President Wilson as adopt ing regretfully such a solution, says the Petit Parisiep in commenting up- on the settlement of the question rel attve to the left bank of the Rhine by the Council of Four. There may have been divergencies as to meth ods, but there was. an agreement on principle, and an agreem ent on the realization of that principle is bound to follow.
 ''Not that the least interesting fea- ture of the prolonged discussion was to see President Wilson apply himself Dassfonately to the task of solving the problem and still not injuring the rights of France. He uttered a, phase one day which France ought to know. He declared with an accent coming from the heart: It would be the sor- row of my life if the great peace we ae making should be jeopardized by any difficulty between France and America The man who threw his country into the war for France re- mains our great friend"

CLAIMS CARTY
 NOT BEATEN UP

There Is no foundation for the story that Michael Carty was beaten and robbed before his body was found in the freight yards, Detective John J. Curry testified today when the inquest on Carty's death was re stunned before Coroner Phelan. The detective said he had investigated d the story and found that although Carty told that to Mrs. Mary Dunn he soon afterward informed pr. Maxwell he had been struck by a train in the freight yards.
 The detective said he believed the latter story was more probable. Carty had been employed in the yards for many years and 1t is thought by the police that in crossing the tracks he was run over by a train during switching operations. There were no marks on Carty's head or face, such as are generally found in a hold-up case. There was a wide abrasion on his chest, however. His body was found on April l. The coroner said he will take no further testimony but expects to make a finding tomorrow.
