Historic Schooner Yacht, Pride
 or us. Nauy 60 Years Ago, WN
 Soon Start On Last Long Voyage

NEW YORK May 14.-Thousands of yachtsmen in the eastern part of the United States will have the oppor- tunity within the next few months of treading the deck of the famous schooner yacht America as she makes her last voyage from Boston to a per manent mooring in the placid waters of the Severn River at Annapolis, where she will take her place once more as one of the government yes sells attached to the Naval Academy after an absence of 4S years.
 As the yacht will call at nearly all the yachting centers on the way south it will be possible for more persons to view and personally inspect the winner of the Royal Yacht Squadron Cup, which now bears her name. and is regarded as the blue ribbon trophy of the yachting world than ever before in her remarkable career.
 This opportunity is made possible through the courtesy of her owner, Charles H. ". Foster, of Boston, who through the Eastern Yacht Club. of which he is one of the oldest mem bers, offered to restore the boat to the government. The offer has been accepted by Secretary Denby, with the stipulation that instead of the navy department accepting the boat as a gift, it shall be permitted to buy the yacht for the nominal sum of one dol lar. The law prohibits the government from accepting personal service with out remuneration or acquiring proper ty except by purchase or capture.
 Used for Pursuit
 Even in case of capture. the prop erty has to go through what is known as a prize court in order that the court of claims under the admiralty law of the persons who in any respect participated in it, may be rewarded Singularly enough the America has been through a prize court. but in that case, the crew of the United States warship Ottawa, which captur- ed and raised her from the bottom of St. Johns river in 1862, after she had been scuttled by the Confederates waived their claim for prize money on condition that she should be sent to Annapolis as a training vessel for the cadets.
 After nearly q year on the block ade off Charleston, during which she made sey eral captures unaided, the yacht which had been renamed Mem phis. by the Confederates, but which had been changed back to America appeared at the Naval Academy, and for 1e years was in more or less act i've service. She was fitted out for the pursuit of Confederate priyateers engaged in the summer manoeuyers of the Academy fleet after the war and finally in 1870 participated in the first race here for the cup which sh,

Iowa Planning To Sell Motor Cars
 Without License
Wy Newspaper Enterprisel


 DIES MONIES, Iowa, May 1.-The state of Iowa intends to collect every license fee due it, If it has to attach the motor cars of delinquents and sell them.
 This is the latest plan presented to the general assembly and the state motor registration department for col lecting the fees from the automobile owners who have not yet paid their shares to the state treasury.
 During 1919 and 1920, no drastic measures were used tc collect the li- cense fees from delinquents. Under a recent amendment to the state vehi cle registration law, all automobile owners must re-register their cars each year. Many motorists, however, have failed to enter their machines again this year and as a result are in jeopardy of losing their cars.
 Recent legislation authorizes the sheriff of each county to attach auto- mobile for which no registration fee has been paid this year and sell it at public auction.

had won 19 years before off the Isle of Wight, England
 In the early races for the Ameri- cas- Cup in American waters, the challenger was forced to sail against a fleet of defenders, and the Ameri- ca which had been fitted out as a yacht by the Navy Department at an expense of several thousand dollars, was entered in the race by q mem Der of the New York Yacht Club. The America was fourth boat at the fin ish line, but the challenger Cambria was more than 13 minutes astern.
 Last Under Sail in 1901
 Three years later, the America passed into private hands and from 1873 to 1917 she was owned by Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, of Lowell. Mass. and his heirs, being sailed in later Ter and by his grandson Gen. Butler Ames.
 The America was last under sail in 1901 when she appeared in the Sandy Hook horse shoe and anchored be- tween Shamrock II and Columbia while those boats were participating in the 11th series forS the cup. She was inspected at the time by Sir of the New York Yacht Club, includ- ing s. Nicholson Kane, the chairman of the regatta committee ill charge of the races, who commanded the Amer ica for a few months while he was a cadet at the Naval Academy.
 Gen. Butler Ames placed her out of commission in the faI of 1901 and for 1t years she lay in the dark, sluggish In 1911 she was shifted across Boston harbor to a mooring close by the South Station where thousands passed her every day, without knowing any thing of her historical interest
 In 1917, Foster saved the yacht from [ destruction by purchase. She was taken over to Lawley's shipyard at Neponset and stripped of her masts and rigging and her lead keel was re- moved.
 In accepting the offer of the Amer ica, under the provisions already siat- ed Secretary Denby in his letter to Commodore Herbert NJ. Sears, said:
 ''I take great pleasure in telling you in behalf of the Navy Department that the Navy appreciates very greatly the generosity and fine spirit shown by C. H. W. Foster, of Boston, one of the Eastern Yacht Club members, and l believe the present owner of the boat and also the spirit of the Eastern Yacht Club in proffering to the Navy this famous schooner"
 The America left Annapolis on June 20. 1873. and it is hoped to restore her to the Naval Academy as near that i day of the month as possible.

UNIFORM COLOR
 SIGNAL FAVORED

Adoption of a uniform three-color signal system on highways, as they are used on railroads, is gaining rap idly throughout the country.
 Two hundred cities and towns aI- ready have installed this method of notifying motorists of various degrees of danger. Red lights ana sJanGards are put up to show first degree dan ger, such as railroad crossings, dead ends of roads or If. bridges. Yellow nghts and markers show second de- gree danger at curves and grades. Green indicates moving or traffic dan ger. to be used at road intersections.
 Highway officials of New Jersey have approved a bill for adoption of this plan in their state. It has also been approved by the committee on standards of the American Associa- tion of State Highway Officials.
 Many national organizations inter- ested in reducing automobile acci- dents have also expressed their en- Gorsement of this plan.

LURRlrATIQN IF
 epRINGS VITAL
BY FRANK THAYER of Thayer's Garage, Lowell

The springs are important acces- sories to the chassis, fer although the frame bears the burden of weight of the engiEe. clutch and gearset. it in turn is supported upon the springs. Present day designers place the springs very close to the rear wheels. They may be divided into seven gen eral classes, viz: semi-eliptic, the full-eliptic. three-quarter elliptic. the rlatform type, the contilever, the quarter elliptic, the coil and various combinations of these. The semi. ,liptic. tnree-quarter and the canti- levers are almost universally used at the present time, and the coil spring is almost obsolete.
 Bearing the weight of the car. the springs deteriorate quickly. Rust is a factor to be considered in the wear ing life of springs, so fabrication is extremely necessary, tc avoid break ing Of springs. All springs should be fairly well fabricated. judging that the shackles are provided with grease cups. and other points of attachment to the frame are provided with oil holes. However, sometimes these holes and cups are hard to locate. and it IS best to have them gone over by Q mechanic
 great many of the bothersome squeaks and scrapings. that do not add to the pleasure of motoring. are caused by the springs rusting and the steel plates working over each other At times they lose their temper; they sag and show signs of losing their set; plates break in the middle, at nc bolt hole, and near the ends of the top plate; and inside plates are prone to break in odd places. But, more frequently the springs become q nuisance, because of the squeaks. due to plates having become dry, and ;n need of fabrication.
 A sprirg-jack spreader has. up to the present time, been used to spread the plates, or leaves, inserting gra- phite, as lubricant Eut this is not the wisest choice, as the graphite col ,ects dust and dirt, and has an annoy ing habit of rolling up. However there is new lubricant on the mar ket. which Is easily applied from the outside of the spring plates or leaves and along the grooves the capillary attraction drawing it into the spring. lubricating it thoroughly
 Springs treated in this manner for q few times will greatly outwear those treated with graphite, and the car owner is spared the embarrass- ment and bother of having his spring break, due to rust, when he is far from home and the garage.

MlLWAUKEE, Vic, May 14.-Gul- lible motorists will be rescued from the traps of tire frauds by the vigil ance of the newly organized Wiscon- sin Tire Dealers Association.
 This organization has begun cam paign to abolish illegitimate practices in their business. It has sent out re- quests to tire manufacturers asking them to mutilate all tires returned to them for adjustment, so that unscru- pulous dealers may be unable to re- pair them.
 Besides having at least one mem Der in each city to push this campaign the association intends to educate the public into buying the proper kind of tires.
