JAP RELATIONS
 REPORTED GOOD
Washington Sees No Reason for
 Any Bitterness
By Tho Auocl.tsa Prss..

Washington, Dec. Ig.-Aritat,on over American-Japsnese relations is puzzling and disturbing officials Of the American government.
 In the View Of the administration there is no International question pending between Washington and Tokio Of character 10 give alarm io the peoples of the two countries, The new Japanese ambassador, soon 10 come 10 America, vii! find yIr- tually d clean slate when he takes up his duties and his reception here will be expected to seal a new bond or friendship between the United States and Japan.
 So far as the two go, ernments are concerned, it is the feeling of Presl- dent Coolidge and his principal ad. Nisers that relations are all that could be desired. They are hoping the American and Japanese peoples will not themselves disturb those re- lations by agitation over situations of conflict which do not exist.
 Agitation, which it Is felt will cre- ate bitterness and mistrust between the peoples of tta two countries, are not charged 10 any single agency, by officials here. They point out, how ever, that the result os much that has haen published and spoken re- gently has hoen to arouse misund"r- standings. The government here feels that should the agitation be carried on the two governments may be embarrassed in their dealings Administration authorities say there never has existed before the com ptete understandings which now pre- Nails between Washington and Tokio.
 So far as the question of naval arma ments is concerned, Japan has, in tha opinion of authorities here fulfilled in letter and spirit the pro- 1lelnns of tha naval limitation treaty snd dtsp'aled always an earnestneSs 10 rgaasur4 up in the same way 10 all spacIfcauons of the various agree. ments respecting China and the Orient which grew out of the Wash ir-ton conference.
 0n the proposal to send the Ameri- can navy to Hawaii and the Pacific for marouyer7 next summer--a sub iert which has evoked considerable agitation of an unpleasant nature particularly in part of the Japanese press--it IS known here that on this the Japanese and Washington su- tnorities are in agreement. The un- derstsnding between them disposes of arguments that the sending Of the war craft t0 Hawaii was mere display of naval strength in the Pa cihc intended 10 affect Japanese

Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in 'cqn, forming acri1 fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like toy balloon.

The average small manufacturer
whose volume will enable him to
build only 5000 bodies from set of
dies in the same time in which Stude-
baker builds $4,000 has to charge
each body $40 for die cost. The diff
ference of $18 is in the price but not
in the body. The customer pays it
but he gets nothing tangible for it.
1t is one of the penalties of uneco-

Thus car priced at ST 200 to ST 400
can be sold as low as $1O45 when

Why Studebaker excelS the
world in body building

For IL years Studebaker has been a
builder of quality vehicles.
This historical tradition has been inbred
in generation after generation of coach
makers. And the Indiana city of South
Bend is known as world-Mecca of arti-
sans of this craft.
In the modern $1O,OOO,OOO Studebaker
body plants, there are sons and fathers and
grandfathers working side by side. Their
religion is fine coach building. And this
is reflected in their work.
AS fine body builders, Studebalzer stands
supreme. No other maker has the expert
ence of Studebaker. No other the Stude-
baker traditions to inspire him..
