KEYSTONE GARAGE lNSTALLS
ACETYLENE WELDING OUTFIT

The Keystone Garage has just in
stalled one of the finest and latest
Acetylene Welding Outfits in Central
Idaho. The outfit includes lead
burning blow pipe which is used in
battery work and radiator repairing;
also a carbon burning torch used for
removing the carbon from the cylin-
ders of all internal combustion en-
gines. This process removes all car
bon, and does a better job than is
possible by removing the head and
scraping.
The next time you break casting
that will cause delay in getting a re
placement. bring it in and have it
welded and remember that many
time a welded casting can be reinforc
ed, making it much stronger than the
original casting. Any metal can be
welded, worn parts built up, new
teeth placed in gears anything.
Bring it in, | will fix it.
Repair jobs will cost about half
what new part would cost and you
will have no delay waiting for parts
to come from the factory as is usual
y the case.
This outfit will weld anything but
breaks in political circles, broken
hearts or break of day. IT,.

IMMIGRATION LAWS
HELD AS SAFEGUARD
Future of Americanism Protected
Under Existing Statutes, DR..
Laughlin Says.

The third biological study OF the
immigration question made by DIR.
Harry H. Lsughlin OF the Carnegie
institution of Washington shows that
the future of Americanism In this
country will be safeguarded under
the existing immigration laws.
Chairman Johnson or the House
committee made public synopsis OF
this report last night. 1t said that
immigration formerly was looked
upon "as matter OF asylum; then
America established the economic
basis for regulation; but now the re-
cent legislation has made Unborn
quality Of the immigrant as a progen-
itor OF the future Americans the
primary basis"
Development OF this biological
principle in legislation the report
added. will assure that future immi-
grants will constitute permanent
national asset in improving our
heredity levels in physique, intelli-
gence and moral qualities
The report was entitled Europe as
an Emigrant Exporting Continent
and the United States as an Immi-
grant Receiving Nation"
Analysis taken over the decade end
ing in 1920 showed "the Immigrant
women are reproducing much more
rapidly than the older stocks. The
fecundity index for the whole popu-
lation was found to be 49, for the
white population. Al: for the negro
population, .42; foreign born white.
IL, and native born white, .42."

American commerce, said yesterday in
reviewing commercial progress be-
tween the United States and Ger
many since the war.
The last year. marked by the
adoption of the Dawes plan and a
consequent confidence in German in
dustrlal rehabilitation also witnessed
renewal of world interest in GER
manys economic welfare" Mr.. Metz
said
Germany last year took per cent
OF our total exports, although we
only bought half as much In return.
Cotton, copper and wheat were the
commodities most desired, although
new markets are gradually being
established In Germany for American
products"
Mr.. Metz urged tariff reduction
which he said would permit Germany
to equalize the trade balance, now
heavily in favor of the United States.
He called attention TO the growing
community of commercial interests
Of the two countries caused by the
entrance OF American capital into
commodities most desired although

Somebody ought TO organize Male

"Oh, well, l may be little bald ANA

thing darned attractive about me-at

But if women would break their
conspiracy of silence and voice their
longings for beauty in the male. some
of the starry eyed. long dashed heroes
Of Hollywood would receive the sdr
prise of their lives.
No man could win Beauty Prize

And the man who had the best
tailor and knew how 10 keep his even
