"My attention has been called,

of the so called National Disabled
Soldier League to peddle pclrils
here, under the guise of relief for
the disabled.
This perTil selling scheme was
tried by the League in New Yorl

mess and professional men are now
being solicited through the mails and
government agents are closely fol
lowing the activity in the hope of es-
tablishing the overt act that will lead
to criminal prosecution.
"The league is not recognized by
the director of the Veterans Bureau

American Veterans as the only or.

ANGER That Improves

complete elimination of the an.
noyance of all motor vibration in its
Wiilys-knight models is achieved by
Wii'ys-Overland by the addition OF
tne Manchester balancer, u new Brit.
ISM invention, as standard euuipmcnt
IN all future production.
ms device, which has been the
sensation of European motoring
circles for the past year, has been
used with phenomenal success on the
other side Of the Atlantic by leading
motor car builders.

obtain, the American rights to the
baiancer by special arrangement with
It's inventor, DR.. +. W. Manchester,
F. r. S.
Ever since the first days of the
multiple-cylinde motor car, automo-
tive engineers have cndeavored to
conquer vibration. In the beginning
when the multiple cylinder car had
replaced the old one and two lung
ers, the vibration in the engine pass
ed almost unnoticcd. The transition
from one to multiple cylinders was
such an improvement in itself that
the latter type of engine was regard
ed as approximating perfection. 1t
was the introduction Of the closed
car that ecessitated greater refine
ment in the engine
Balanccr COuntcracts Vibration
The Manchester balancer is based
on purely scientific deduction with
reference to the causes Of vibration
in a motor, and is applied in such
manner as to counterfeit this vibra-
ton at all motor speeds. 1t is a
simple corrective device of two small
gears attached to the center main
bearing of the motor, driven in op-
posite directions by third and larg-
er gear at twice engine speed. The
third gear is part of the crankshaft.
This rotation of the smaller gears,
which are drilled in order to dstri-
butte their weight unevenly, gives
equivalent. though opposite move
ment to the mass of the pistons, neu-
Trailing the vibration which these
set up.
This device was first tested by DR..
Manchester in the cars which bear his
name. Results were remarkable. but
not long after this factory turned
over its entire capacity to the pro-
duction of engines for aeroplanes.
After the war the Daimler Company
builders of might -motored cars in
England, adopted the balancer At
the present time all Vauxhall cars
are also equipped with this mechan-
ism.

When one has had the misfortune
to suffer from backache, headaches,
dizziness, urinary disorders and other
kidney ills-and has found relief
from all this sickness and suffering,
that persons advice is of untold
value to friends and neighbors. The
following case is only one of many
thousands, but it is that of a Bis

better example?
Mrs. N. F. Reynolds, All Mandan

through my back and kidneys and
other symptoms of kidney trouble.
My ankles swelled and found it
difficult to get my shoes on at times.
After trying several remedies without
the least help. finally got Doan's

using them, all of the trouble dis

TRADE BALANCE IN

Washington. = The United States
strengthened Its position as world
depository in 1923 as the flight of
capital" continued from the unstable
economic conditions of the Old World,
the Department of Commerce an
nounced In summary>of international
transactions. In the future, the de-
partment predicted, this country will
take more and more important part
In financing world enterprises.
Once again the invisible" trade, the
transactions for which there are no
government records, played an influen-
tial part in the balance of the books.
The invisible" items last year were
such as to cut to $19, 100000 balance
OF $3S9,OOO,OOO in favor of the United
States in the transactions passing
through the customs houses. Included
In the invisible" items was an esti-
mated $30,OOO,OOO In smuggled liquors.
Ocean freight appeared to be the on
ly consequential service or commodity
for which the United States aid for
eigners more than it received. On the
other hand, foreign investments
brought S394,000,0OO into the United
States, net increase of one-fifth over
1922. AS compared with 1922 exports
from this country were $341 ,OOO, 900
greater and imports were $7O6,OOO,O 900
more in 1923, showing healthy
growth in American trade.
1T seems likely" the survey said,
that the United States will take
more active part in financing world
enterprises in the future than it has
In the past. This means an increas-
ing amount of interest and profits on
foreign investments and consequently
an Increasing volume of imports-not
necessarily from the countries in
which the investments are made, but
from the whole world. At the same
time, with the growth of our country
and the increasing skill of our bank
ers and exporters, it is likely that our
exports will continue to increase, al-
though not as fast as our imports.
The survey said that American tour
lists had spent something like $780,
100000 in pleasure and American
citizens gave about $7OOOO,OOO for for
eign philanthropic purposes.
Remittances by immigrants was es-
timated at S350,OOO,OO0 while newly
arrived foreigners brought only about
S60,000,000 with them.
The department estimates that this
country paid about S73,00O0O0 for for.
etgn shipping service while its own
ships received about $65,OOO,OOO from
foreign account. American vessels
carried 3S per cent of NIL water borne
exports from the United States, al-
most the same as for the previous
year. Foreign vessels carried more
than 6S per cent of all inbound cargo
an increase of . or 3 per cent over
the previous year.
