A speed test which, for unusual ness, beats anything tried for several years. is that which was undertaken and successfully completed by Cleveland Six touring car from Los Angeles to San Francisco and re- turn. The time consumed without exceeding a single speed limit was 14 hours and 26 minutes from Los Angeles to San Francisco and 15 hours and four minutes on the re- turn, proving thkt a regular, com mon. everyday ear owner can make the Bay City in about the train time and not run the chance of getting pinched.
 The test was conducted under the watchful eyes of the various county speed cops. and all speed signs through the numerous towns and villages along the route were strictly observed.

REACH BASIS TO
END SHIP STRIKE
Benson and Shippers to Propose
Wage Cut, Offset by
Bonuses,

A basis of compromise in the ma
rine strike was worked out here to-
day at conference between Admiral
w. S. Benson. chairman of the United
States Shipping Board, and repre-
sentatives of the shipowners whose
lines are affected by the strike.
The basis of settlement agreed
upon by Admiral Benson and the
owners is that the 15 per cent fat re-
duction of wages will be installed,
but that most of the cut will be made
up to the men in other ways. chiefly
through bonuses for economy In
operation.
w. S. Brown. head of the Marine
Engineers Association. said this
afternoon that the proposed plan to
provide bonus for men who effect
economies in ship operations is the
"welfare plan Of the Standard Oil Com
pany" and is not acceptable to his men.
Brown said. however, that the situn-
tion appeared more hopeful today.

sary for Allied Supreme Coun-
Gil to Extend Sessions.

LONDON, Nav 4.-Considerable
confusion arose today over the
methods of indemnity payment
which the allies will impose upon
Germany under the terms of the

perts TO reach an agreement made
it necessary for the Supreme Council

when the Reparations Commission
could be consulted.

that the Reparations Commission had
asserted its rights, under the treaty
of Versailles. to say how and when
Germany should pay, without "out-
side interference"
Following a conference of the Rep
arations Commission It was reported
that a brand new scheme would be
reported to the council by the Repa-
rations Commission at 5 o'clock NJ
Jaspar, the Belgian foreign minister
attempted to mediate the differences
of opinion and was understood this
afternoon to be presenting a compro-
misc formula.
The financial experts, before the
meetings of the Reparations Commits

three sets of terms but they were
subsequently held to be unsatisfac-
tory.

Times that Germany had made a new
reparations offer direct to the Allies

issue involving zap Island might be
reviewed by the council this after
noon.

noon the French reiterated that there
was perfect accord among the Allies,

fully upon all the details OF the plans
for German payments.
It was stated that a note had been
drawn inviting the United States to
