ments of the human body.
From simple needles, with which
to pick '.hickies" on your neck, to
intricate prongs and lights and
tubes Off the last stages of bodily
disrepair, the exhibition represents
perhaps the best collection in his.
tory of implements connected with
the science of healing.

dent Coolidge's electrical "exercis-
ing horse" with a saddle and a.
motor to gallop it.

the ranks Of the association on the
liquor question. A few minutes be-
fore his talk, DIR. Morris Fishbein,
editor Of the Journal OF the Ameri-
can Medical Association, had given
out q public statement severely criti-
cising the injection of the prohibition
discussion into the meeting OF the as.
ISOLATION.
Reply to Charge
DR.. Fishbein's statement was an
answer to the charge made yester-
day by the Association Against I'M
pure Liquor, which is made up large.
~ OF members OF the American
Medical Association, that Wayne B.
Wheeler had made a nationwide eff
fort to pack the present conven-
ton.
The officers OF the association re.
sent the attempt OF this promotional
group to seize the opportunity OF adj
yancing its cause in connection with
the annual session OF the American
Medical Association" DIR. Fishbein
said. He also denied that the medi.
cal association was in any way con-
nected with the group against i'm
pure liquor.
Problems, some of them strictly
technical and of interest solely to
the doctors. are before the meeting;
but some others of the more gem
eral interest are threatening to
come to the fore.
Because some of the physicians
are accompanied by members of
their families, an elaborate program
of social activities has been ar.
ranged. Approximately 5000 OF the
$4,000 here for the meeting are
doctors.
For the first time in history,
motion pictures showing the birth
OF babies. operations on punetured
.Ings, and other difficult operations
will be shown the medical men. The
pictures are for the benefit of
physicians who do not have the
opportunity of attending clinics on
these subjects.

attempt a nonstop flight from New
York to Paris have postponed their
hop.off for another "a hours, it was
announced today. According to
meteorologists, the present bad
weather may continue for several
days.
Captain Charles Lindbergh's Ryan
monoplane has received it's final test
and Lindbergh may be the first to
get away.
Dissension arose between the
Bellanca fliers-Lloyd Bertaud and
Clarence Chamberlin-and Charles A.
Devine, the owner of the Bellanca
plane, but it has been adjusted.
The trouble was due to three
points which the airmen brought up:
% The necessity for some sort of
financial protection for their families;
~ full amount of the $25, 900 prize
money to go to the aviators instead
of being split up with the Columbia
Aircraft Corporation, and (3) abroga-
ton of a clause in the contract with
the corporation by which the airmen
had promised to fly for a year for
the Columbia Corporation If the New
York Paris flight were successfully
made.
If any of the aviators hop off
tomorrow they will have the pro-
lection of about fifty United States
Shipping Board vessels which are
enroute between America and
Europe over the North Atlantic
Steamship Line.
Should the airmen get away to.
morrow morning the ships will be
notified by wireless and instructed
to give every possible aid in the
event any of the aviators meet with
accident over the ocean.
The average distance between the
ships at the present time is sixty
miles.
The Bellanca monoplane was
taken from its hangar on Roosevelt
Flying Field at 4 a. m. today, lead.

Besides the long-wearing quail

important fact that it is silent" he

of the driver and is irritating to
pedestrians.
"Then, too, there is the protection

the rubber chain gives. The broad

cutting or bruising the tire and are
particularly suited for balloon tires.
Another point in its favor is that
it is easily applied"

A railroad engineer has to have
many years of experience, and a
clean record of safety and sobriety,
before he is permitted to take the
throttle of a locomotive at the head
of a passenger flyer.
What contrast to many a driver
who controls the deStinies OF his
passengers as he sits behind a pow
erful automotive enginel
And how far worse is the contrast
when a boy or girl of immature age
is permitted to guide large, power
full automobile through today'S busy
traffic!
We wouldn't think of travelling on
train that has a youth at the
throttle. While, in the latter case,
many of us think nothing of it.
Efforts ere being made in many
States to %egislate youth from be-
hind the steering Wheel for it is
realized that this is one Of the great
dangers facing the riding and walk
ing public. However, little success
has been attained in this direction.
Somehow or other youth, mex
perienced, irresponsible and carefree,
may have its fling even at the ex-
pense of others lives. Many parents
do not seem to care. Many in fact
approve of youths daring, forgetful
of their own responsibility.
But what can be done about it in
country where for the most part,
no attention is paid to the sorts of
drivers that burn up the roads?
Only few States have drivers Ii

Just because a mechanic puzzles
over the front wheel alignment and
pronounces it correct is no reason
to assume that all is well. Even if
he uses approved devices for this
sort of measurement he may not
learn the truth through just one
test.
1t is not generally known by car
owners, and by some mechanics as
well, that wheels can vary in align
ment as the car is being driven
along the road.
This is caused by looseness in the
king pin bushings, the wheel spin
dies or the tie-rod. Mechanics fire.
quently test for looseness in the
bushings and spindleS, but overlook
the possibility of loosenes in the tie
rod connections.
Many front wheels, when lacked
up, can be made to vary in the
amount of toe-in a quarter of an
inch, even more, because of the loose
tie-rod. Wheels in such condition
are in line part of the time and out
of line the rest.
