EXCESSIVE MISUSE OF TIRES
Nearly so Per Cent of All Manufac.

of Many Abuses.

Experts estimate that nearly so per
cent of all automobile tires manufac-
tured are discarded before they have

of the neglect and ignorance of mo-
florists. differentiation, wheels out of
alignment and other abuses cause dam

TREATIES IN DANGER
UNDER Marine ACT
State Department Discovers 1915
Pact With Britain and One With
France Abrogated.

Certain provisions Of the merchant
marine act, if followed, may abrogate
twenty-five commercial treaties Of
the United States. including"that with
Great Britain ratified in 1915. and that
with France completed in 1922. 1t has
been learned at the State Department.
A study of the treaties containing
clauses subject to section "a OF the
act, requiring that notice of termina
ton be given by September s. it was
said, has disclosed that number to fall
within it's scope. Doubt has arisen as
to the exact intention of Congress in
framing the shipping legislation, de-
partment officials said. They described
the situation which would result from
application to the letter of section "a
as so radical" as to have raised a
question as to whether so drastic a
course had been planned by the legis-
latorS. There was no intimation
given. however. of the steps toward
carrying out the, provisions of the Sec
tion which had been planned.
The Estate Department has received
protests against certain provisions of
the act. it was said. The situation has
been viewed as so serious, however,
that frequent conferences have been
held between Secretary Colby and Adj
miral Benson, chairman Of the Ship
ping Board.

SPIRIT OF FELLOWSHIP
IF TRUE WISDOM BE WON

Telling the graduating class of the
Annapolis High School that Wisdom

TO be won, the Rev. Edward ID. John
son, ID. d., rector of ST. Anne's,
preached the sermon to the graduates
at the morning service yesterday.
Beautiful old st. Anne's presented
an inspiring sight on this first Sunday
after Trinity. The congregation filled
the church, and with the graduating
class. which numbers forty, were

changes have appeared today in the
convention lineup and none is ex-
pected
Twenty hours before the conven-
ton. as the bewildered delegates mill
around hotel lobbies bewailing the abb
sence of leadership, the old leaders
find a grim satisfaction in referring to
the old charges of "bossism" with
which they used TO be confronted.
They are asking if it is not better to
be led than lost.
Overnight and early morning con-
ferences have only served to streng-
then the pogram of letting the con-
ference learn by preliminary ballot
that none of the candidates has fol-
lowing enough to nominate him.
Attention is being laid on the plat
form as an important issue, but the
best informed claim that this is only
a screen to hide the fact that there are
no longer any leaders
Old Line Captains Gut
With the captains of the old line
out, there has been brought into be
ing an entirely new crop of so-called
leaders. many of whom do not know
each other This has added difficulty
to the situation.
No campaign manager has been able
to strengthen his line sufficiently to
enable him to go into the conference
with confidence for a real test vote.
Each one is waiting for the first ballot
to see how good backing he has among
the uninstructed delegates. 1t is ex-
pected that the first ballot will settle
between the big three-Johnson, Low
den and Wood
Dark Horse Talk In Background
The last on the list after the first
ballot are expected to put up a strong
defensive. Dark horse talk was still
in the background today, and there
was strong undercurrent of Hughes
talk. 1t was said that Hughes would
be regarded as a formidable opponent
if he entered strongly into the con-
test.
