Wood Assures
Japan U. S. Is
Still an Ally
America Is Doing All in Its
Power to Keep Friendly
Sentiment Alive, He Says
at Dinner in Yokohama
Growing Trade Forecast
Special Agreement Between
Two Nations OH Philip
pines Is Urged by Press

YOKOHAMA, April 2S (By The AS
sociated Press) The United States
government is doing everything it can
to keep alive the spirit of friendlness
with the Allies, of which Japan is one.
Major General Leonard Wood, who ar
rived here from the United States
tuesday evening on the steamship
Wenatchee on his way to the Philip
pines, told gathering of several hun
dred Americans of Toxic and Yoko-
mama who gave dinner in his honor.
I'VE want to keep up our good rela-
tions with those by whose side we
fought" General Wood declared.
President Harding, he added, would
DO everything possible to establish the
commercial policy Of the United States.
including proper share of the ocean
carrying trade and helpful cooperation
with American business men abroad.
General Wood alluded humorously to
his escape from pcrshing in the deep.n
referring to the series of mishaps
which delayed the Wenatchec on her
voyage to Japan. On his arrival here
nc declared, he was received with chat
exquisite courtesy which the empire
knows so we'll how to extend"
Trade Expansion Predicted
w. Cameron Forbes, former Cover
nor General Of the Philippines, who is
accompanying General Wood, after
calling attention to the intense inter
est of President Harding in the welfare
OF the philippines, expressed the opin~
ION that there would be a great exten-
sion of trade between the United States
and the Orient. wa 'o'
The passage of General Wood through
Japan, in addition to evoking words Of
welcome from the press, has insnired
speculation by. the newspapers as to
now far his mission is concerned with
military matters. Some Of the edi-
torlal writers are confident tnat it in
cludes the study of colonial problems
IN the Pacific, with the probable effect
that independence for the Philipnine
Islands would have on the colonies Of
Great Britain, France and Holland

Girl Fatally Burned as
Dog Holds Off Rescuers


ORANGE, N. j., April 2s.-Miss
Louise Foster, of 22l Watching Ave
nue., nue., West Orange, died at St. Mary's
hfospltai yesterday of burns she suf-
from rubbish pile. Her BULLDOG at

Miss Mary Foster, sister of Louise,
::ried to extinguish her blazing gown.
Her screams brought neighbors to the
door of the Foster homo, but the pet
bulldog barred them from entrance.

cgetion. This, too, was lost on point
of order.
Would Merely Give Authority
Obtaining recognition, Representa-
tive James f. Byrnes, Democrat, Of
South Carolina, declared the only rea-
son set out in objection to the disarm-
ament amendments was "aiiat they
might embarrass the President" He
said the President now has not the
authority necessary to initiate such a
movement and that "by merely giving
him the authority at this time, and not
directing him, he would be placed in a
position to take up the opportunity
which may present itself tomorrow
or within the next few weeks or
months"
Representative Mcndell replied he
was willing to leave the matter to the
Judgment of the Committee on For
eign Affairs, confident that they would
keep in touch with changing condi-
tions"
This statement caused Representa-
tive Henry D. Flood, of Virginia, to
charge that the Committee on Foreign
Affairs was called "to consider that
very proposition last Monday and ac-
tion was postponed for some reason un-
known to any but the majority side"
This action" he added, "seems to give
us rather dim hope"
Only two amendments of importance
were added to the bill. One of these.
offered by Representative Marvin
Jones, Democrat, of Texas, provides
that the appropriation shall be expend-
ed only on vessels now under construc
ton. The other, offered by Repre-
sentative A. e. B. Stephens, Republi-
can, Of Ohio, prevents the expenditure
OF any moneys carried in the bill for
buildings or shore stations unless spe-
cifically authorized

A slim youth sauntered along Queens
boulevard near Hillside Avenue, in
Jamaica, yesterday and nervously fin
gered the pages of paperbacked de-
tcctive thriller in coat pocket. A
pedestrian passed him and then hurs
ried to Patrolman Mclaughlin, who
was standing nearby.
That kid is mighty slim for boy"
the citizen observed, "and he don't
carry himself like he should"
One look at the "kid" satisfied Nc
I.aughlin and he asked the youth to
walk to the police station with him.
He agreed readily and insisted he was
8 boy, until a search of.~his pockets
brought forth the novel and package
OF cigarettes.
Then she" broke down and confessed
she was girl. She is Margaret Lyons,
fourteen years old, who had been living
with Mrs. S. Hopkins Hadley, in Now
bray Place, Kew Gardens She said she

LONDON, April 28~-Thc negotia-
tions between the coal miners and rep
resentatives of the government for set
tlemcnt of the miners strike were
broken off this afternoon when the
miners rejected the offer Of 100000
600 grant to the mining industry, made
by Sir Robert Stevenson Horne, Chan
cellor Of the Exchequr, to enable the
pit owners to readjust wages gradually.
The grant was offered on the condi-
tjon that no wage cuts of more than
shillings shift be made in May,
none more than 3 shillings pence in
June and the balance of the sum to
go toward alleviating the severity of
the reductions made in July and
August.
Sir Robert reiterated the govern
mcnts refusal to consider national
pool of profits. The miners, saying
that the governments offer did not
meet the situation, rejected it and ter
minated the conference. They are re-
turning to the coal fields to report
again to the rank and file of the union.
1t is reported that their decision to
reject the government offer was by
small majority.

The front system of the Ford car takes in front axle, spring, steering connection rod, wheels and front rad jus rod.
 Lack of proper fabrication and hard usage wear out the parts composing the front system, the direct results of which are premature wear of tires. hard steering, broken springs, broken wheel bearings, loose bolts, etc. Any of these may contribute to a serious accident.
 A front system overhaul is really inexpensive, and considered from safety standpoint, no owne. ought to drive or'let others drive car needing an overhaul of this kind.
 When We overhaul a front system. the procedure is as follows:
 The front end of the car is hoisted and front axle, spring, steering con nection rods, wheels and front radius rod are removed from chassis. <.
 All parts are disassembled, thor oughly cleaned and inspected, down to the last bolt and nut. All worn parts (where wear cannot be taken up) are replaced by new ones. All broken parts are similarly replaced. Spindle bodies and arms are rebushed and reamed if necessary.
 The steering arms connecting rod ball caps are brought up snug when assembled.
 Front hubs are pacI with grease before wheels are place back on axle. and bearings are then adjusted.
 Front spring and perches are re- pushed if necessary. All spring leaves are freed from rust, oiled and reas- sembled.
 The front system is now assembled to chassis and radius rod ball socket attached with relation to it's bearing surface. -s@Esf sss@@s
 The front axle is tilted at the correct angle and front wheels properly align ed.
 The job is now complete and our la- bor charge for this work is s5.0O. ne- cessary parts extra.
 We use Genuine Ford Parts exc,u- sively.
 Drive carefully. Avoid bad bumps ~A oNN>A~ hOAOo. ueSe are the cause of spring breakage and the ruin of front wheel bearings. Avoid hitting curb. This causes misalignment of front wheels and uneven wear of front tires. Oil your spring leaves. It will prolong the life of the Car as well as the springs and makes for easier rid ing. At least once week drop oil in oil cups in front system (S in alb. Ad- just front wheel bearings on an aver age of twice monthly. At the same time see that the bearings are sufici- ently packed with cup grease. It is better to have too much than not enough.
 If you will follow these instructions you will seldom need our services.
