ENGLISH TARIFF
ON i. S. MOTOR
CARS CANCELLED
Big Demand for American
Autos in All Parts
of World.
Times Washinqton Bureau,

ISE2 NefC 1OTk A &c.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 3.-Henry
Ford should be tickled pink. So
should other American automobile
manufacturers. Great Britain has
knocked off the big 33 Is per cent ad
valorem import duty on motor cars,
effective one year from now, Aug. l,
1925.
Even under the big British tariff
the Department of Commerce re
ports that 1882 American cars went
to the United Kingdom last year.
This number, of course. does not In
clude those manufactured by Amer
lean companies maintaining branch
factories in Canada. England has
admitted Canadian cars with only
% 20 per cent ad valorem tax. The
Department Of Commerce expects
many Of these branch establishments
to pack up and come home to the
United States now. This, Of course,
will be a big loss to Canada.
American Cars Everywhere
Americans should be able to see
their own cars in most any, corner
of the world now, and, as a matter
Of fact, they can. Even on the Island
of Jamaica, where there are only
2 900 acres, most of them are Ameri-
can-made. In Toxic, Japan. there
are 1900 cars, of which 5000 are
American and the rest a light
French type. In Argentina 81 per
cent Of the imported cars come from
the u. S. A. Argentina has risen
from sixth to second place among
the countries takig largest numbers
Of American cars. During the first
six months of 1924 they had bought
1927 cars. while in all of 1928 they
took only 6,645. The most popular
cars in the Argentine are those sell
ing for less than 5000 paper pesos,
or 1910. They don't care a boot for
closed cars and the consuls in that
part Of the world say this is because
the climate is so mild and because
the Argentinian always has chauf-
feur and doesn't want him to sit
inside.
Argentinian Likes Extras
Furthermore, the Argentinian
likes all the extra little comforts
and conveniences in his car-wind-
shield cleaners, cigarette lighters
and such.
Australia and Japan are the best
customers among the countries for
American motor cars. Canada used
to be next, but during 1924 has CIV
en- up her place to Argentina.
Two places where there is almost
no market are Austria and Norway.
Austria is increasing the tax by
5000 to S1,4O0 per car. Norway feels
the rate of exchange is against her
and for that reason discourages i'm
ported luxuries" to the tune of a
80 1-3 per cent ad valorem tax.

DAVIS SETSOUT
TO APPEAR AS
REAL DEMOCRAT
Candidate Advised to Be-
come One of Common
People,
By United Press

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO. Sept. 3.-John W. Da-
Wis. Democratic presidential candi-
date, today set out to show the West
that he is a Democrat in every sense
of the word.
This line of attack was adopted on
the advice of George E. Brennan,
Democratic boss of Illinois. Davis
was told that he can not expect to
carry Illinois or any of the western
States unless he creates the impress
sion that he is really a man of the
people.
They Cheer Him Up
The most cheering news given to
Davis by the stream of Democratic
leaders was regarding the Demo
cratic organization in the West
So far as the West is concerned,
he was told, the Democratic ma
chine Is intact and that Senator La
Toilette is making greater inroads on
the Republican party than the Demo
cratic party.

To Fight La Toilette

Davis viii attempt to take advan-
tage of this situation in his mid
western speeches, the first of which
is at Omaha, Sept. 8. on the agricul-
turaI problems. This same subject
will be amplifed in a speech at Des
AIoines on Sept. Il.
Democratic leaders were greatly
encouraged over the situation in
Iowa and the West generally as a
result Of the Des NIOines date, which
was arranged by E. T Meredith, for.
mer secretary OF agriculture, who
turned down the Democratic vice
presidential nomination at New
York. With Meredith on the Davis
band wagon leaders believe that
thousands Of Democrats who were
disCruntled over the defeat Of Nc

JUNIOR AMERICAN RED

Children of 29.942 Schools Now
Enrolled in Movement of
Service to Humanity.

The American Junior Red Cross.
which was organized as a children's
auxiliary during war-times especially
to help the young refugees in Europe.
and to exemplify in peace-time the
Red Cross ideal OF service. has now a
membership of 5,596,663 in the schools
of the United States and the insular
possessions.
This Junior movement gives oppor-
tunity for the children 10 share in
Red Cross effort parallel to that of
the parent organization. Juniors are
therefore identified in varying degree
with the health services, disaster re-
lief work. salvage and other suitable
activities of value to the operations
of the Red Cross.
1t is a valiant host marching on
under its "I Serve" banner in the
cause Of happier childhood every.
where and particularly wherever the
American flag flies. The enrolment
embraces 29.942 schools and 147,4S6
school rooms. a gain over 1923 OF
5,655 schools and 22,414 school rooms
The years gain in membership was
769.402 children, or nearly $4,000 for
each month of the school year.
The educational and social values
Of the Junior Red Cross movement is
thus evidencing the firm and cordial
endorsement Of school authorities. The
government has added the weight oi
recognition by extending the Junior
Red Cross in the schools for American
Indian children. The American Red
Cross is also planning TO develop the
Junior program in GOO rural schools
in isolated sections.
There is no abatement of the ex
change of correspondence between
schools in the United States and
schools in the insular possessions
and foreign lands During the veal

RECORD DISASTER Year

In 1872 Places in United States
Its Relief Operations
Cost $737,6O3

One hundred and ninety-two disas-
ters resulting in 735 deaths and injury
to 1882 persons, rendering nearly
1000 homeless and causing property
losses estimated at more than $44, ,750,
900, established a new record in the
United States in the year ended last
June 80. according to reports of the
American Red Cross. In all Of these
disasters Immediately relief activity
was applied by the Red Cross, which
expended s7376O3.37 through the ma
tional organization and the local
Chapters in assisting stricken com
munities.
AS the nations chief relief agency,
whose service covers over 43 years,
the Red Cross is expected to be on
duty almost as soon as disaster
strikes any locality. This trust and
confidence is amply justified by the
increasing equipment Of the Red
Cross. which recently organized mo-
bile disaster unit of experienced work
ers ready in all parts Of the country
to respond on the instant to a call
for active duty. This unit Is capable
of operating in several disaster areas
under one general direction, and re-

disturbance in a restricted local area
or for millions in relief funds for g
