American Legion Serves Notice
on Senate to Stop Its
clubbing.
BY j. BART CAMPBELL.
Internat tionaI News Service.

Republican leaders OF the Senate
are in quandaTy today as TO how
they may best meet the difficult and
yexatious situation created by the
unqualified demand OF the execu-
tive committee OF the American
Legion for immediate and substan-
tial provision for the American
doughboy.
WANT ImMEDIATE ACTION.
Officers OF the legion served un-
mistakable notice on Republican Sem
ators that they expected Congress TO
provide ample hospital facilities for
sick, maimed, and insane ex-service
men without further delay.
do IL now" was the gist OF the
message delivered by Col Il. w. Gal
braith. national commander Of the
legion.
Senator Penrose. Republican. OF
Pennsylvania. chairman OF the SEN
ate Finance Committee, before which
the give Ways" soldiers bonus bill
passed by the House last session Is
still pending, informed Colonel Gal
braith he Is personally In favor OF
doing IL now"
But how To do il now is the knotty
problem confronting Penrose and his
Republican colleagues, In view " tho
Legislative jam in the Senate. lescrib-
ed by Penrose as chaotic" and i'm

tions bills President-elect Harding

necessity for further hearings IN the

sidered McCumbcr intimattd he
thought further hearings necessary
Penrose sent Colonel Galbraidth
away with the assurance that he be-
lieved the bill could. and probably
would be passed at this session, with
the proviso, however, that whatever
financial sinews are furnished 1t
shall be left TO the future.
SEEK FINANCE PLAN.
McCumber is also of the opinion the
bill probably could be passed by the
Senate now, and the question OF how
TO raise money for it's financial prof.
ects left to future determination. He
and other Republican Senators are
trying to hit on a plan that VIII be

They recalled the Republican party

ards. even at the cost OF increased
taxation.

Anti Sea-Sick Device
Stops Ships Rolling

the gyroscopic principle In offsetting
the rolling effect of ship. In Its
simplest form. the gyroscope is
wheel and axle. SO mounted as to
permit the axle TO take any posi-
tion in space. II an effort Is made
to shift the axis OF the wheel while
1t Is spinning. the wheel resists
the effort and the resistance results
In motion of the axis at right
angles to the direction of the applied
motion.
As homlier illustration of TIE
working principle of the Sperry sta
bilizer, one may imagine a ship with
a very tall mast, to the top OF which
a long rope Is attached, with a giant
on deck holding the end of the rope.
When the ship begnis TO roll to one
side, the giant pulls the rope IN
the opposite direction, thus offsetting
the roll and keeping the ship on an
even keel
In actual practice, the stabilizer
consists of one or more horoscopes of
a combined weight equal to one half
of 1 per cent of the vessels displace-
ment. A small control gyroscope
moves with the first wave, making an
electric contact which sets in opera
ton motors turning the big gyro-
scopes. These in turn function eX-
actly the same as the small device,
though with sufficient power to in
fluence the motion of the ship.
ACCURACY OF GUN FIRE.
While the stabilizer viii undoubte =
ly greatly alleviate, II not altogether
prevent, seasickness in rough wealth
er, it is primarily on this account that
the navy is interested. The rolling of
a ship interferes seriously with ac-
curacy of gun-fire. and vessel
which stays on an even keel has
great advantage in battle over an
enemy craft that Is at the mercy of
the waves
Destroyers are notoriously trough
riding" and 1t Is on this class OF ves-
sells that the navy expects the stabil-
izer to be most effective. The Sperry
device has been tried on a submarine,
but limitations of space is an argu-
ment against its general employment
on that type OF craft for the present,
despite its obvious advantages in
other respects.
1t Is expected that the stabilizer
also will come into general use on
pleasure yachts and passenger
steamers. At present the stabiliZer
makes no provision for controlling the
pitch" of a vessel.

by HARRY l.. ROGERS,
International News Service.

A stabilizing device guaranteed by
itS inventor to prevent ships from
rolling even in the toughest sea Is
now under consideration by the Navy
Department and may eventually be
adopted. II was learned today.
This device, which is the work of
Elmer L. Sperry, inventor Of the
gyEoscopic compass now in use on
most naval vessels, also Is based
upon the principle of the gyroscope.
Naval officials stated today that the
Sperry stabilizer has been tried out
on several naval vessels of differ
ent types, and that there can be no
doubt OF It's eventual success. In
the case of instruments previously
experimental with, however, there
have been some defects of mechan-
ical construction, which II Is hoped
have been overcome in the latest
model about to be installed.
The idea Of a device to prevent
the rolling of ships and thus rid
the sea of it's terrors for those who
suffer from sea-sickness is not a
new one. As early as 1908, a Ger
man inventor named Schlick con-
structed a stabilizer, which accord
ing to naval constructors here, had
many good points. though 1t never
became a commercial success.

General Dyer, Of Amritsar Fame,
Says Country Is Not Ready
for lt-Sees Dark Days.
By EARLE {. REEVES.
International News Service.

LONDON, Feb. 10.-Dark days
are predicted for India by Brigadier
General X. +. II. Dyer, Of Amritsar
fame, if the Government proceeds
with its plan of forcing self-govern-
ment upon the eastern empire.
In a striking article In the Globe,
which has been publishing series
of stories by experts on Indian af-
fairs, General Dyer declares that In
dia does not want self-government.
"She does not understand IT," he
adds. 'The massed millions OF India
who are depicted by Grandhi 1.-THE ma
tionalist leader) as seething against
the Rowlett act do not know what
the act means at all. and have no in
tention whatever of going against the
Government"
Gandhi he depicts as followed by .
crowd OF rascsls and thieves" agi-
tators who are incapable OF checking
the storm which they are trying TO
raise.
And IL IL comes to blood" Dyer
writes, "the first to flow Will be that
OF Gandhi and his friends.
'Our politicians are forcing growth
in pretending that she Is ready Tor
home rule. India will not be desirous
OF a real self-government Tor genera
tions.
"Self-government for India Is. a hor-
rible pretense which would set the
peoples OF the country at each others
throats long before the beginning OF
constructive work had been made
possible.
Under self-governmeht India would
commit suicide; but our politicians,
would be guilty of murder as as
sociates in the crime.
'The 1919 rebellion was well timed
and well planned. and only an
accident forced the rebels to act
prematurely.
at was fortunate that we in the
Punjabp had time to act, and at IN
the same way we should tomorrow IN
similar circumstances.
"Gandhi may be a great religious
fanatic, and he may have a crowd
obedient now to his word: but when
the test came he would never be able
to control them, for they would be
nothing more than the PERSONNEL

Dyer sounds an ominous note in MS
conclusion when he says:

will come to India very shortly when

CROWDER lob
TOHO[D OVER
Question Of Legal Status In
Cuba After March 4 May
Be Embarrassing.

A situstion which may prove en-
barrassing 10 Gen. Enoch H. Crow
der in his efforts TO aid Cuba In un-
tangling her political, financial,
and economic affairs was disclosed
here today upon receipt from Hav-
ana of reports indicating that the
generals work probably will not be
completed when President Wilson
goes out of office on March 4.
NO PRECEDENT TO GOVERN.
The question of General Crowders
legal status under the new admins
tration immediately became sub
tect of general discussion. and many
different opinions were developed.
Legal experts of the State Depart
ment admit that there Is no law
covering such a situation and, so far
as they have been able to discover
no exact precedent.
When General Crowder's mission
was officially announced. IL was
stated that he had gone to Cuba as
the personal representative OF Presi-
dent Wilson. Secretary Baker stated
at the same time that General Crow
der was temporarily outside the
Jurisdiction of the War Department,
and Crowder since arriving in Cuba
has rendered all his official reports
to the State Department.
Some officials take the attitude that
General Crowder's status is that OF
any other diplomatic representative or
the Government. and predict that he
will feel obliged to offer hrs resig-
nation as soon as President Harding
is inducted into office. Others con
tend that he is the personal represen-
tative of woodrow Wilson. and as such
will lose all Official status except that
of major general. as soon as Wilson
ceases to be President
Another view advanced Is that
Crowder is the representative. not of
Woodrow Wilson, but the President OF
the United States, appointed by him
to accomplish "a certain task, and
that he therefore has all the au-
thority necessary to continue his
work until 1t is completed.
PROGRESS IN HIS WORK.
Advices from Cuba continue to re-
port progress in the work of clearing
nIp disputed election cases and OF re-
ilieving the harbor congestion.
BY the time the results of the cleo
tions are known 1t is hoped that the
financial situation will have improved
sufiiciently for General Crowder to
make recommendations regarding the
proposed foreign loan Of from fifty
ito one hundred millions said to be
necessary to put Cuba on sound
financial footing.

Tires No Stronger
 Than Weakest Part

What may Q motorist expect from his tires? No question seems less understood among car owners. Men are no longer content with the old time service but demand a new cri- terion as standard tire mileages in crease.
 A tire is no stronger than its weak est part so the object of every tire manufacturer with an interest in his product is to build a perfectly bal anced tire. It is not enough that the raw products be of maximum strength and quality. Balanced con- struction is of first importance.
 Strong beads gre useless with a weaker carcass. There is no object in the side walls enduring after the carcass is gone The same is true of the tread and of the breaker strip inn bedded in cushion gum. An over amount of material going into any one part means not only increased cost without increased efficiency but the weakening of the whole
 A tire under normal air pressure and load will perform specific amount of work. The same tire un- der abnormal conditions of over load or underinflation will in all probabil- ity perform the same work but for a much shorter period. Excessive straip of certain parts wear them out more rapidly. Service rather than mileage Is the guage of tire excel leuce, according to Miller tire men.
 Mileage Is only condition in a tire and is controlled in large part by care or abuse. In it, road conditions are important But service ia what is built into the tire. From standard tires. motorist may expect excellent service. From "gyp" tires--so- called

Care of Battery
 Nothing But Use
 or Common Sense

A whole lot has been said about the care of storage batteries-so much in fact that the ordinary per- son is no better off after listening to it, as rule, than in the beginning
 Just a suggestion, however, given by the Electrical Equipment company of America, which has an office and service station in tlus city. covers the whole story briefly. and if the advice is followed, the motorist can avoid 90 per cent of all storage battery troubles. That advice is, have your storage battery tested regularly every two weeks by an expert" Simple. isn't it?
 The expert. however. will know what your battery needs. of it needs anything. He knows if the specific gravity is O. K. if the water is at the right level, if your generator is charging sufficiently, etc. etc. And of he has your best interest at heart. he will see that all these things are given the attention they need with the least amount of trouble to you. For the battery service station man who is sincere does not want to sell you new equipment, necessarily. He really wants your battery and cleo trical equipment to give you long service as well as absolutely satis- factory service

this in our increased sales of repair materials. Evidently thousands of tires are rapidly nearing their end and car owners are fixing them up to extract the last few miles from them
 Another encouraging condition IS that many car owners are carrying either no spares at all or very dilap- dated castings. All of these cars will soon need at least one tire.
 The tire oversupply of a few months ago is disappearing and the days of the bargain tires are about over. The tire stocks of dealers who are really going out after business are down near actual requirements.
 T found quite a difference in the attitude of various dealers and natu- rally received from them variety of reasons for the condition of their trade.
 One dealer in particular deter mined that he would stimulate busi- ness a little and with a little extra sales effort and advertising secured orders for 45 tires. ,Ide replaced these and succeeded in selling another 45

He who hits and runs away, won't run very far if the plans of Captain George V. Sinclair. of Sacramento, Cal. are adopted.
 Captain Sinclair has invented de- vice to make the highways unsafe for reckless drivers, and has asked the California legislature to adopt it. It is an automatic safety stop and is shown in detail in the above sketc. It works as follows:
 A cross bar is extended in front of the automobile, similar to a ..bunper." The cross bar con hects with another whict runs back through two boxes of mech anisn1. The first box securely locks the bar when the slightest pressure is exected against the "bumper."
 The second box contains a de- vice for shutting off the fuel of the engine. An engine without fuel cannot run, except on its
