Soon dealers and car owners in all parts of the country demanded the sealed Tydol pump. And so the sealed pump, the most effective method ever devised to guard gasoline quality,is being introduced in this vicinity.
 Every Tydol pump in this

 Tydol dealers have united in sealing every Tydol pump in this section.
 Today, stop at any Tydol pump. The dealer will gladly show you how it is sealed. Then fill up with Tydol and you can drive away certain that you will get the fast start, the rushing pickup, the sustained power and economy for which Tydol is famous.

How the sealed T'ydol pump originated

Last fall, New York City was flooded with so-called bootleg gasoline. This was cheap, inferior stuff that dishonest distribute unloaded on the pu bile through pumps plainly labeled with the trade marks of well-known, quality gasolines.

His intervention came after the dis
tribution among the league delegates
and journalists of a document con-
demning the British attitude in China
and signed European delegation of
the Kuomintang party"
The document said that the League
of Nations was proving a great dis

its most important member, Great
Britain. was committing brutal and
barbarous acts" without the slightest
show of interest on the part Of the
league.
Chinese Delegate Rebuked.

The United States is in sympathy

Warning by Lord Cecil.
: Lord Cecil, pledging Great Britain
to support the gathering, pictured the
world as awaiting results anxiously
from Geneva. He warned, however,
that it would be fatal to call the meet
complete, because It's failure would
be the greatest disaster to the cause
of peace since the Leagues founding.
M. Paul Boncour, for France, and
Herr Won Schubert, for Germany,
also pledged the support of their re.
spective nations TO the conference.
President Coolidge is anxious to as

sized at tbs White House, but there
can be no question Of his disappoint-
ment over the results of the prelim-
mary Arms Conference, especially the
treatment of naval matters at the
hands OF the expert committees. Rep
resentatives of countries which do not
possess navies took part in these
technical discussions, and this point
has been remarked upon by United
States delegates and others during the
expert committee sessions.
Doubt of L. s. Participation.
There is grave doubt whether
America would participate in the gen
eral conference If it will include. the
discussion Of purely naval affairs by
representatives of non-navy nations.
The United States would not be
likely to regard such a general con-
ference of all powers on navy mat

forces were substantial or small, as
calculated to obtain the desired re-
