1T was learned to-day, the continuance
of negotiations here between the
Japanese Ambassador and the State
Department as to the status Of Japan
csc in California and the general sub
iect of Japanese immigration. The
heavy majority in favor of the re
stricting measure, it was said, had been
fully discounted in advance, and negoti-
ations have made such progress that
should treaty result it may reach
the Senate during the winter session.
The temporary absence from Wash
ington of Ambassador Morris, who
has been conducting for the State
Department the discussions with AM
bassador Shidehara, it was said, had
only partly delayed negotiations. They
will be resumed fully on the return
of Mr.. Morris .eie week. The Japan
csc Ambassador conferred to-day with
Secretary Colby, but no statement as
to the purpose of his visit was given
cut.
The discussion between the two am
bassadors is understood to have pro-
gressed so that it will be possible soon
for the plan which they have in mint
:. TO be reduced to form for presenta
tion to Secretary Colby and next tt
President Wilson on the one hand, ant
to the Foreign Office in Toxic on th'
other. All proceedings thus far be
tween the conferees have been sub
ject to such reference and to amend
ment, approval or complete rejection.

The original anti-alien land law was
enacted in 1913 and permitted short

forbids any lease whatever and was

costs, and see how they are affected | by solid and pneumatic tires. The | following items are usually not af- | fected by tire equipment: Interest | on investment; insurance, taxes and license. garage, supervision, wages of driver and wages of helper.
 The following, however, may vary according to the type of tires used; depreciation, gasoline, oil, tires, re- pairs due to wear and tear and ac- cident.
 Taking them up in the order given there are, so far as 1 know, no de- pendable figures covering deprecia- tion on which to make comparisons, as no trucks have been run long enough on pneumatics to determine their effect on the ultimate life of the truck.
 | As to the relative consumption of gasoline and oil, very few reliable figures are available, but the best informed operators are incluned to | feel there is little if any saving Tn these items. particularly on short hauls. On long hauls, however, the advantage seems to lie in favor of pneumatics.
 When it comes to tires there is no question The cost of pneumatics average two to three times that of solids. This is due, to the higher in itiaI cost of the equipment and the spare tires, their greater suscepta-
 bility to abuse and accident, and their lower average mileage.
 So far as the cost of repairs to the
 truck is concerned, comparative data
 of reliable nature cannot be obtaln-
 ed. The evidence indicates, however, that except for the engine, the cost
 of repairs will be considerable less on
 pneumatics than on solids, due to the
 reduced vibration. And if the engine is not run at excessively high speed or continually overworked it will
 prove less subject to damageon pneu
 matics.
 Summing up the factors affecting the saving of time and money, l have . come to the conclusion that no gen eral claims in favor of pneumatic equipment on trucks as a whole com ; ing in the debatable field can be sub , stantiated. and that the work to b'
 done by each specific installmen , must be analysed carefully before s either type of tires can be safely con , sidered and the more economical.

Style Predictions
 For Fall Blouses

In the fall blouses the overslIirt type. will be very short, as it is not a mode suitable for wearwith winter suits Instead of the sash tie-bacll, the belt will be buttoned or the gir- dle tied at the side.
 Embroideries will tend to lighter patterns that give colors without mass instead of the heavy peasant decora- ton. Bronze, dull gold and silver beads will predominate.
 Almost without exception. the fail blouses will be collarless. and sleeves will either fall below the elbow or be of elbow length. The bell and flowing sleeve will be very popular for blouses of soft materials.

pneumatics than on solids.
 Up to the present, however, com paratively few trucks are engaged in long distance hauling. The great ma jority of trucks operate in cities where they cannot possibly obtain speed of over ten miles an hour. For such speeds there can be no possi- ble saving in time which would off set the extra cost of running on pneu- matic tires.
 The condition of road surface has a very important bearing on the time element, as it has a direct effect on the speed Of the truck. In fact, un- der certain circumstances, the in creased traction afforded by the heavy pneumatic makes it possible to operate the truck while if it is equipped with solids it cannot be driven at all. This is particularly mo- ticeable in rural districts where there are no hard surfaced roads.
 One of the advantages frequently mentioned is the greater number of trips per day which may be obtain ed from truck equipped with pneu- matics. So far as this factor by it. self is concerned, there is no doubt that the advantage is in favor of the pneumatic.
 There is one more important fac tor to be considered as affecting the time element, and that is the mum Der of hours the truck is laid up fol repair Barring occasional lay-ups caused by defective material or work manship, solid tires can be depended upon to give uninterrupted service 1 from the time they are applied unti worn down to the point. They car then be replaced without serious los: of time
 Owing to the comparative vulnera bility of pneumatic tires, they are ia more likely to require time out fo repairs and replacement.
 Punctures do not seem to be so ire quent or so costly ill poin of time a blowouts due to cutting and chafin; of side walls from ruts, as well as t' under-inflation and overlooking.
 When we come to compare tn
 time out for causes other than tir
 trouble, we find a variety of conflict ing claims, though it seems to me tn
 evidence favors the use of pner
 matics.
 It is claimed by some that the us
 of pneumatic tires accelerates tn
 wear on certain parts, such as beal
 ings, bushings and steering knuckleE
 and that a correspondingly greate amount of time required for the af iustment and renewal Moreove many owners state that the use ( pneumatics on trucks cause thei drivers to overspeed and take moI | dangerous chances that result in a , cidents and time out for otherwis { unnecessary repairs than is the cas 5 on solids.

perform and thence the saving or prof it it will show, depends largely upon the amount it can carry, or in other words, it's pay load. There is well nigh universal tendency to overload trucks beyond their rated capacity and it is not uncommon to find trucks carrying twice their rated capacity. When it comes to standing up under this. usage, there seems to be no doubt that solid tires will not only carry heavier overlOads, but will last longer in such service. This seems to me the most important and least understood factor in the entire list. Apparent savings may be offset or overbalanced by the additional trips that become necessary when an over load cannot be carried.
 Closely allied to the cost of over loading pneumatic tires is that of un- der-inflation. The constant and .ex- treme fleXing caused by overlooking has a tendency to weaken the side wall making it much more likely to fail in service. While solid tires are not invulnerable they can stand more abuse and are less expensive to main | tain working condition. eBside in- curing expense from overlooking and under-inflation, there is the danger of ruining pneumatic tires from running them after being punctured or blow out. It is not uncommon for practi cally new tires to be ruined by driv CTS who do not stop their trucks a, soon as they begin to suspect tire trouble
 In attempting to collect data as tc mileage on pneumatics, l found many
 varying claims ranging from 200 miles
 under adverse conditions, to 25,00(
 miles on lighter trucks. over goot roads with proper care. With rare
 exceptions the mileage delivered by
 solid tires is considerably greater
 than that from pneumatics in tht
 same class of service.
 When the earning capacity of tn,
 truck concerned is judged by tn,
 number of trips per day, the advan
 tage seems to lie with pneumati
 equipment provided the runs are ion: enough and not restricted by such fa tors as traffic congestion and delay
 at terminals.
 AS l suggested before, there al certain conditions under which uuct on pneumatics can make trips whe those on solids can not be operated
 Hence. their earning capacity
 just so much greater. It has bee noted that trucks on pneumatics nc only negotiate the unpaved roadway
 more easily. but do less damage tha ; those on solids, and hence are locke | iupon with more favor by the farmer = they serve.
