URGES BUYERS TO
BUY THEIR TIRES
ON MILEAGE BASE

IF q car owner buys his tires
on the basis of long mileage-scrv-
ice and freedom from troublo-he
IS practicing real economy, accord
ing to j. A. Hall. local manager of
tie Western Auto Supply company.
"Thcrc is great deal of differ
encc between a cheap tire and an
economical one, SAYS Mr.. Hall,
. for in the long run. the cheap tire
viii prove to be more expensive
than the tire bought at standard
l.ricc from a reliable company. True
economy lies in getting the most
miles out Of the tire for the dollar
spent. That is why we say that
when a motorist selects either Il
Wear Well or 4 Western Giant cord,
he is practicing real economy
"These tires arc specially made
to meet western requirements and
have been developed iii order to Sc.
cure tire that will give high road
mileage over roads and houlcvards
VI Iitt west. w men II Is tOISiNtIt'
that in the western states, the mo-
tolists finds not only paved roads
but sandy and rocky ones as well,
it is evident that in order to give
good service. quality must be built
into the carcass of a tire
"That is one. Of the reasons why
orr tire bus.less is so good. Mo
to!ists have discovered that we
have tire that is specially built
tor the west aud designed to give
maximum service under the most
tl|ing conditions. All Of our tires
are made according to our own spe-
cifications. They are built by scv-
oral Of the leading tire manufacture
ers i'll the United States--tire com
panies who make and sell automo-
bile tires under their own name.
"'With the temporary reduction
in price that is ROW IN effect on
Western Auto tires. hundreds Of mo-
torists are anticipating their future
needs and buying now at the low
prices.

PRESIDENT
ACES Bis
FIGHTS
Battles in Congress Over Air.
Force and World
Court Loom

Al rocky road, full OF ruts,
bumps and detours, stretched to
Congress today ahead Of the COM
prehensive legislative program
presented to Congress by Presi-
dent Coolidge in his annual mes
sage. Here and there, the way
will be opened for easy sailing,
but such spots are enclosed with
obstacles.
A survey Of Congressional
opinion as Congress settled down
in the harness today for the six
month grind revealed that on the
four major issues presented by
Mr.. Coolidge aviation, world
court, tax reduction and coal legis-
.lation the Administration likely
will have pleasant sailing on two
Of them and en- extremely rough
passage on the other Two. The
troublesome issues are aviation
and the world court.
Taxes and COaI Easy
Almost universal appreciation of
the Presidents recommendations for
immediate tax relief and for author
ity to intervene in coal strikes was
expressed by members OF Congress.
The tax bill already IL on its way
through Congress. 1t was called up
within an hour after reading clerks
had finished intoning his recon-
mendations.
Several bills were being drawn UP
today to place in the White House
power to intervene in the perennial
coal strikes
Then War Begins
There, however, the easy going
ends and the bumps begin.
The Presidents findings in the
aircraft situation found less support
than any other single section Of his
message. Standing on the Morrow
report. he denied the United states
has been outstripped by other ma
tons in the air, and he proposed
only a minor adjustment Of the
grievances which the Mitchell school
have broadcast for months.
Congress has the report Of one
of its own committees to act upon.
This report from the House Air
craft Committee supports many Of
the charges made by Colonel
Mitchell, and the evident determine.
ton to act upon 1t was reflected by
the shower Of bills in both House
and Senate proposing a separate,
unified air service for the national
DEFENSE, and greater Governmental
AID Tor commercial aviation.
The Democrats, particularly. are
going to press this issue.
With respect to the world court,
the opposition is small in numbers,
but formidable in power. Such
powerful debaters as Borah Of Idaho,
Johnson Of California, Reed of Mis-
souri,, Moses of New Hampshire,
Norris OF Nebraska and others pres.
ent formidable opposition.
The odds today appeared to be
with the Administration in the
court fight, but it was freely pre-
d1cted that American adherence to
the court may be secured only at
the cost of reservations of such
character that the fifty-four other
nations comprising the court may
never accept them.

CarrOlI GARRISON captured IN Tux
sensational raid on Lohman's gam.
ing hall. on Bladensburg road, early
Saturday morning, today asked The
washington Times to clear his
father of any suspicion whatever
in connection with the raid.
Young Garrison is under $1,000
bond on an allegation that he in.
terfered with policemen in the per-
Torrance of their duty and threat
ened to assault the officers. He
is to face trial at Upper Marlboro,
Md, at the April term Of court.
I'm not worried" he said.
His signed statement, embodying
his defense of his fathers reputa-
ton, his charges Of political interest
in the raid and various interesting
details surrounding his arrest, fol-
lows:
+ wish to state that my father,
Thomas Garrison, constable of
Prince Georges county for twenty
one years, had absolutely forbid
den me to take part, in any way,
with gambling enterprises in the
county. Despite the fact that
he drove me from his home in
anger because 1 persisted in my
associations, I continued to work
at Lohman's, on Bladensburg
road, as yard man, parking auto
mobiles in the yard outside the
establishment. / was employed
in this. way when / was arrested
in the raid conducted by county
policemen early Saturday morning.
I desire to state that / am
tWenty-sev years of age, am
married, and can use my own
discretion as to where i am en-
ployed and from whom take
employment.
l repeat that l continued in
my present work without my
fathers permission, and directly
against his orders. He did not
know where l was working, but
knew that / was associating with
men suspected of being gamblers.
He did not know of the existence
of Lohman's, my place OF employ
ment, until after the raid.
/ also wish to correct an i'm.
preston that the Washington
papers received from the authori
ties at Hyattsville. / mean by
this, the widely published asser
ton that Mrs. .Rhetta B. Morris,
Justice of the peace at Hyatts-
vile, directed the raid and enter
ed Lohman's few minutes after
the policemen had come in.
Mrs. Morris did not arrive until
an hour and half or two hours
after the raid
AS Mrs. Morris term of office
expires soon, 1t is evident that
the raid was conducted for cam
paign purposes, because of its
peculiar timeliness. The raid

man Reese.
1t is significant that no liquor
was found in Lohman's. The
establishment is conducted by
gentlemen for gentlemen, who
want to spend a pleasant evening
at cards, roulette or other harm
less amusements, rather than
mix in the wild, drunken parties
that are prevalent in these days.
Why the forces of virtue in
Prince Georges county do not go
after the more serious wrongs,
and leave this form of sport
alone, is what many people in
the county are asking today.
The people who read the Wash
ington papers Saturday, and par
ticularly the list of names Of
those caught in the raid, will be
interested to know that every one
Of the names was fictitious.
Lohman's caters to high-class
clientele, and is proud of its
patronage.
