b|G G|VERS HELP THE SERVICE FUND
Birmingham Men and WOm- en Working for Salvation
 Army Home Finances

Larger contributions have somewhat cheered the workers in the Salvation Army home service appeal, but they and everyone connected with the drive >realize that Birmingham quota of $40, 900 is still far from being realized
 The large contributions were brought in by the Big Givers Com mittee," composed of J. Ellis Brown city commissioner; Judge William E.. Fort and Mrs. V. H. Hanson.
 Among the contributions reported by the special committee are: Alabama Company, s250; irst National Bank, $20O; w. G. Matthias, $200; Steel City Lumber Company S75; Shook & Fletcher Supply Company, $50 Zach L. Majors, $50, and Marx & Co., s25
 Among the other contributions re- ceived during yesterday are: Personal Service League of the Southside Bap- .tist Church, s25; Fairfield Masonic Lodge No 749. $25, and T. L. Smith, s25.
 Nearly all of the downtown office buildings have been visited by the workers in the drive, and consid- erable amount towards raising Bir- mingham's quota has been received.
 But there are many sections Of the city, it is believed, that the workers have not been able to visit. Shortage of workers in the drive and many other handicaps have caused the cam paign to be failure so far. But it is believed by the officials that the citi- zens of Birmingham still intend to see it through, and that even at the last hour Birmingham may rise up to the standards that nerly every other city in the south has set by making their quota a success.
 Maj. David Main, divisional officer, again calls attention to the fact that there are many people in the city who would like to contribute but who have not been visited by the workers in the campaign. These people he requests to send their donations to Thomas Bowron, cashier of the First National Bank, who is the treasurer for the Birming ham Bessemer zone.

 Washington, May Especial. .)-Like an- other but more famous "old guard" the republican has never surrendered but it may, in fact, be dead. Senator Penrose, the last of this variety of Bourbons, is stricken fatally, it is said. While some days ago it was announced that he had rented a sumptious, ten-room apartment irV Chicago from where he planned to general the convention fight, it. is now established as true that he will be unable to leave Philadelphia
 The followers of the ''old guard are naturally bewildered. For so many years they have heard the masters voice and bent their heads in recognition of it's power that with the voice stilled they know not what to do or where to turn. The 1ieutenants, too, have passed, or are passing.
 Murray Crane declares he will not stand for reelection as national commit teeman. This fact causes his deprecia- tion although there is little question but that he will be charged with first respon- sibility in the absence of Penrose. Elihu Root, the old strategist from New York, declares that he will sail for Europe be- fore the convention. Uncle Joe" Can-

DEMOCRATS SILENT
 ON ARMENIAN MATTER

Washington, May 26.-(Special)- )- Democrats in the Senate will say noth- ing regarding the Presidents desire that the United States assume manda- tory power over Armenia. They have adopted a hands off policy, and will make no movement until after the re- publicans have acted or refused to act. The Presidents message is in the committee on foreign relations. It is not regarded as probable that the re- publicans will report a bill embodying it's ideas.
 The President, prior to addressing the Senate, consulted with no demo- crat, according to Senator Underwood, minority leader

What Our Tests Show

We run tires at our factory ten million miles year to make these service tests. These are radical tests Tires are run con- stantly, night and day, and under heavy load. We want quick comparisons.
 On our testing machines Miller Cords average 15OOO miles, and Fabrics about half that.
 But these are not mileage records. We
 are running Miller Tires against high-grade rivals

Be Satisfied With This

You will get on a Miller an exceptional tread. It IS by 25 per cent the best tread made.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-05-27
Why Mileage Varies

"A Cord Tire gives vastly greater service than a Fabric Tire.
 An oversize tire will vastly excel . tire that is undersize. Care, load and roads affect tire service greatly.
 Millers are uniform tires. That is . major reason for their supremacy. But uniform tires will vary with conditions.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-05-27

Expect it to outserve any tire you put opposite. and 1t almost invariably will. Expect twice the mileage tires gave a few years ago, and they will doubtless do still better.
 Expect tread wear 25 per cent better than from others and you'll not be disappointed.
 But don't expect tha under all conditions, can n exceptional mileage.

Expect from Millers greater service than from any like-type tire. And lo times in 20 you will get it.

MICH TALK OF HUGHES

It is remarkable that the convention IS practically prepared for business without knowledge on the part of tEe leaders as to who will be nominated. The tenn porary chairman, Senator Lodge, has been named The platform, in it's essen tial features, has been written. But the candidate is still obscured. This situa- tion enhanced by the fear that Senator Johnson would consider it an honor to emulate Roosevelt in his famous 1912 bolt makes ie apparent that the 'old guard must resort to as effective diplomacy as ever featured 6 political convention Thus it happens that the collapse of the leader ship. accentuated in the portable fatal illness of Penrose, makes it possible Tor nearly anything to occur-a condition or situation undreamed of in normal times During the past twenty-four hours there has been much talk of Hughes. This old "standpatter' was nominated in 1916 and despite the disappointment of the progress sives that Roosevelt threw them down, they supported Hughes. The result of that ca mpaign proves conclusively that Hughes may again be nominated without danger of split which made the 1912 election of Wilson an obvious certainty
 So great many republicans are say
 ing 'Uhy Not Hughes?" Should the deadlock, which is certain to prevail, be of long standing, the former supreme court justice may find himself again in harness. And Hughes, like the renowned Rarkis is willin.
