SCIENCE CLEARS
SUSPECTED MAN
"Lie Detector" Upholds
His Story of How
Wife Met Death

SAN FRANCISCO. June 10
today had cleared Henry wilkins
of suspicious in connection with his
wife's murder.
The lie detector"--scientific
known as the sphygmomanomome
ter or blood pressure machine-pro-
claims that he told the truth con-
cerning her death.
wilkins Story.
His story was that, returning from
a days outing last Sunday evening,
an automobile containing three ban
dts crowded the wilkins car to the
curb. one oS the bandist flourishcd
a revolver and wilkins gave him
5000 in one hundred dollar bills.
| The bandit. wilkins said, attempted
to take rings from his wife's hands
ard he reached for a gun to pro-
tect her. The bandit fired but Mrs
wilkins flung herself in front Of her
husband and died instantly.
Their 6-year-oid son corroborated
this story.
Then the police learned Mrs. Will
kins had filed a suit for sepatate
maintenance charging cruel treat
ment.
CoDtradicts Himself.
That while wilkins claimed the
| bandit car was of a certain make,
other witnesses declared 1t to be an
other.
| And finally wilkins failed TO rec
ognize suspect despite the fact
the witnesses said the man, a for
mer convict, had worked for Will
kins several months ago.
To ascertain whether wilkins was
telling the truth, he was subjected

The test was conducted by DR..
John A. Larson, Berkeley police de-

vented the lie detector" and Chief
Of Police Daniel O'Brien. Both men
expressed satisfaction today with the
test and their belief that wilkins
had told the truth.
1t was the second important MUIR

WAY CLEARED
fORPROGRESS
ON ROADWAYS
Congress Appropriates s2o3.-
100000 Additional Fed
eral Aid.

When the deadlock between the
House and Senate was broken and
Congress appropriated $4,000, 900,
s65.00o,o0O and s75.000,OOo rospcc-
lively, Tor the fiscal years 1923.
1924 and 1925, the way was cleared
Tor the State highway departments
Of the Union to proceed efficiently
on a three-year program which
should mark the peak of highway
construction effort in. this country
and establish a new record in the
rapid improvements of our most
important interstate roads.
In addition to the funds appro.
priated as Federal aid to the States,
S6,5O0,000 has been provided for
each of the fiscal years, 1924 and
1925, for forest road construction.
The forest road funds for. 1923 were
taken care of in earlier legislation.
The appropriation, while not as
large as was hoped for by some
Of the leading good roads proponents
In Congress, eliminates the un-
certainty under which the State
highway departments have been
operating and win enable them,
with a three-year program in view,
to build up efficient departments
and carry forward their work in the
most economical way. The appropria
lions were made under the provi
sions Of the Federal aid act OF, 1916
rs amended in 1919 and 1921, which
means that the funds provided by
the Government must be expended

per cent system of interstate
and intercountry roads. The States
are required to maintain the high
ways once built.
The only important change in
the act was an amendment which
limits Federal aid participation 10
s16,250.00 per mile for 1898 and to
$15,000.00 per mile thereafter. This
contrasts with the $20,000.00 per
mile maximum of 1919 and the &c.,
10000 limit of 1915. This limit, 1t
is expected, will work no hardship
under average conditions, but for
special situations, where traffic is
very heavy, It is not improbable
that some change will have to be
made at q later session of Congress
to prevent the waste resultant
from too cheap a type of highway
construction.
The recent appropriation brought
the total provided by Congress for
the aid OF the States, sine" the
passage of the original Act of 1916,
to $587 900 100000. The Bureau Of
Public Roads states that construc-
ton has been proceeding for the
last three years at the rate OF ap-
proximately $50 zoo, 100000 a yea; in
Federal funds and as the State or
ganizations have now become well
stabilized 1t is anticipated that this
rate will be exceeded in 1928 and
succeeding years. AS 1t is, the fiscal
year which began July ! will be
the largest in the history of road
construction. II normal conditions
of freight movement and material
supply prevail.

Brealxage Minimized and Squeaks
Eliminated by Use Of Modern
Spring Covers.

Not SO long ago motor cars were
built with exposed timing gears.

versal joints. But as these are run

and, protected against dirt and water.
they are all inclosed on modern cars.
No less important are the leaf
springs upon which the chassis rides
the axles. Yet, though working
parts are subjected to great fr'Cticn
and rusting, they have been left ex-
posed all these years while every
other mechanical part was being In
closed.
Several years ago, European max
ers started to inclose their springs
in order to keep out moisture and
dirt and retain the graphite between
the leaves. In England these in
closures were called CATERS, says
John H. Williams, in Motor. They
were of leather, laced in place. Many
European cars are today being fitted
with CATERS because II has been
found that rust does not form be.

much longer before breaking.
No less than a dozen different
makes Of spring covers are now be-
ing produced in the United States.
These are of several different typcs.
Some are of leather, like the English
gaiter: others of imitation leather,
and the newest type is entirely of
metal. Yankee ingenuity has devel.
oped several improvements over tie
simple European type, and the popu-
lar practice Of lubricating the
springs. like any other running part,

II every automobile driver will
adhere strictly to the code Of giving
the car on the right the right Of

accidents that shocks the readers OF
the daily papers every day can be
avoided.
This is the opinion Of Dan II.
Lewis, acting executive chairman
of the American Automobile Asso-
citation, who has been studying
driving regulations for many years.
mo automobile driver should be
compelled to watch both sides Of
the street." said Mr.. Lewis. "The
rule of the road, both In the city
and in the open country, In that
the driver on the right has the
right Of way, and there should be a
severe punishment for any person
who violated that rule"
"The increasing number Of auto
mobiles that congest traffic in the
cities brings more and more to the
front the question Of right Of way.
Most cities provide in their orni-
nances that the A. A. A. system
of giving the road to the man on
the right. except on through boule-
wards, shall be effective, but un-
fortunately 1t Is not always OBJ
served. There is always the fel.
low who Is willing to take a
chance in order to display his driv-
ing skill, or to show Off before
some fair companion, and this type
Of driver should be- the target for
every policeman's attention.
Automobile driving should be a
pleasure. There is seldom an oc-
casion where extreme haste is nee
essary, and the motorist loses
mighty few second In observing the
rights of the man on the right.
After you reach the hospital or
morgue, II doesn't matter much
who had the right of way. but a
little patience would avoid many a
run for the ambulance and many
an operation for the surgeon, as
well as considerable physical pain
for the driver VINO forgot to con-
slider the other fellows right to the
