WASHINGTON Oct. tP)-Any
doubt Emiliano Chamorro may nave
as to the attitude the Washington
government might take in the event
of his candidacy for the presidency
of Nicaragua seemed to be set at
rest today by the authorized staCe-
ment at the state department that
American recognition would be : ac-
corded only to Nicaraguan president
elected in strict conformity with the
country's constitution.
Pressed for the application of this
policy in Chamorro's case, the state
department called attention to- a pro-
vision of the Nicaraguan constitution
that no president who had been in
office fer even a portion of term
might be elected to the presidency
at an election Immediately following
the conclusion of that term. The
same rule would apply, it was added
in the case of President Diaz, Wh0
is now finishing out the term to
which President Solarzano was elected.
General Chan1orro also served a
portion of Solarzano's term when the
latter was unseated by a revolution.
He has not called at the state de-
pertinent since his visit of a few
days ago to pay his respects to
Secretary Kellogg.
The question of his desire to run
for the presidency in the election
which is to be supervised by the
United States next year did not come
up in the course of his conversation
with the secretary. There is no ques-
ton, however, that in the event that
he should run and be elected, the
Washington government is prepared
to deny him recognition on the.
grounds of his constitutional disabil-
ity.
Aside from the technical question
of his constitutional qualifications
there is little doubt that Washington
officials feel certain that Chamorro's
Temperance in the political life of
Nicaragua at this time would be a
disturbing factor and tend to reopen
the half healed sores resulting from
the bitter fighting between the major
political groups in that country. Theirs
is no function to be exercised by the
WASHING on government, however, in
connection with selection of candi-
dates in the coming presidential cleo
ton and whether the clearly indicated
purpose of the Washington admins
tration to withhold recognition from
will prove sufficient to keep him out
OF the presidential race is not now
apparent.

.CHAMORRO TOLD|RADIO CLAIMS
CANDIDACY NOTTOF DE FOREST
CONSTITUTIONAL 0. KDBY COURT

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6, P-Dr.
Lee De Forest radio and wireless sci
enlist, today won victory in a long
series Of legal battles when he was
declared by the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals to be the original
inventor of the oscillating audion and
the radio feed back circuit.
The oscillating audion is one OF
the principles by which broadcasting
is made practical, while the feed back
circuit is used on many receiving
sets for obtaining added power.
The inventions involve, it is said
probably half billion dollars. Had
the decision been in favor of any
of the other claimants, the victor
would have royalty claims against
DIR. De Forest and others, it was eX-
planned.
It is expected the case will be ap-
pealed to the supreme court Of the
United States.
The appellate court overruled the
claims of the United States govern
ment which holds the assignment OF
the right of patent to Alexander
MeiSsner, a German inventor, claim

and audion; those of the Westing-

ate, is the inventor, and the claims
of the General Electric company that
the vital radio discoveries were made
by Irving Langmuir.

CALIFORNIA ROADS
AFFORD MUCH TRAVEL
At Rate Of 200 Miles Each Day,
Motorist Would Consume
Over One Year.

Travelling 200 miles day. it would
take a motorist more than a year to
traverse every road in California.
This fact is revealed in a compila-
ton of figures by the Automobile
Club of Southern California which
shows that approximately 400. days
would be required to cover the 1888
miles of highway in the State.
Should the motorist decide to make
the trip merely over the State high
way system, the tour could be accom-
plished in approximately 33 days.
The total State system is 6.582 miles,
and the counties boast of 72,606 miles.
1t would be quite job If only the
paved roads in the State were toured.
This would require approximately 30
days as there are $3.50 miles of pave
ment, of which 2,450 miles are State
roads, and the remaining 4,5O0 miles
county roads.
While it is the general belief that
only paved roads represent the ulti-
mate in comfort, there are hundreds
of miles of surfaced roads that are
highly enjoyable to travel, and the
equal of paved roads in easy going.
Should the tourist care to travel on
surfaced roads in the State in addi-
ton to the paved roads, 80 days more
of travelling would have to be added
to the 35 days needed for the paved
roads as the total surfaced roads COM
prise 1857 miles. The State has g.
53S and the counties 1869.

PLAN
ENDED IN DETROIT
Auto Law Violators Henceforth
Must Identify Themselves to
Policemen.

Detroit motorists who violate traffic
regulation henceforth will be re.
quired properly to identify themselves
to the policeman or accompany the
latter to precinct station, where
they must put up bond as a guarantee
of their appearance in court. For
some time rast Il system of issuing
little pink tickets to viola tors has
been in force, the ticket being a sum
mons to court. The motorist then
was trusted to. appear in court of his
own volition.
The identification ruling was made
by the traffic commissioner of Detroit
after it had been found that a num-
Der of smart" motorists had been
giving fictitious names and addresses
and then failing to appear in court to
take their punishment.
Motorists who are unable properly
to identify themselves to the satisfac-
ton of the officer who makes the
arrest will not be extended the cour-
tesy of the ticket system: which per-
mits them, on the strength of their
license numbers, to go their way.
When the officer makes the arrest
there is no way of knowing whether
the motorist gives the true name or
not The police heretofore have as
sumed that the name given was the
correct one, but in all too many cases
it was found that the motorist had
not told the truth.
Investigation disclosed that in scores
of cases when the motorist failed to
appear in court fictitious name and
address had been deliberately given.
and in many other instances it was
found that license plates on the cars
driven by traffic law violators have
been fictitious or found listed to some
other automobile and in some cases to
fictitious automobiles.

i. s. AUTO EXPERTS
GOING TO LONDON
American Industry to Be Rep
resented at Motor Trans
port Congress.

Americas automobile industry will
be strongly represented at the Motor
Transport Congress, to be held in Lon.
don, England, November Is, 16 and
II, with the formation of a delegation
from the membership of the National
Automobile Chamber of Commerce to
take part in the deliberations of that
conference.
1t is understood that the n. A. G. G..
now is organizing the group which
will journey to London for the ses-
sions, and to put forth the opinions
and viewpoints which have been
gained as result of this country's
intensive development of the automo-
tive field. This years will be the
fourth annual meeting of the con-
gress.
The Prince of Wales, who has been
elected president of the Motor Trans
port Congress, is expected to take a
prominent part in the sessions, since
the heir apparent to the British
throne is known to have quite a deep
interest in all problems relating to
automotive transportation.
Six meetings of the congress will be
held in all, and the broad headings of
subjects for discussion are to be as
follows:
L. ROad construction ana improve
ment in relation to the development,
efficiency and economy of road trans
port.
2. Motor transport as AN instru-
ment of development of world re-
sources.
3. The necessity for cooperation
between road and rail transport.
4. The development of motor ve-
hicles suitable for service on bad
roads and for cross-country use.
5. The improvement of facilities for
international travel by road.
6. Fuels and fuel supplies for road
motor vehicles.
The congress this year is being or
ganized by the Society of Motor Man.
ufacturers and Traders, Ltd, under
the auspices of the Bureau Permanent
International des CONSTRUCTORS d'Au-
tomobiles. and with the support of the
Imperial Motor Transport Council.
The fact that this council has given
it's support to the congress insures ade-
quate representation of appropriate
departments of the British Govern
ment, and also of the dominions, col
onies and dependencies. Steps are be.
ing taken to secure equally influential
representation of foreign countries.

Motorists Avoid
Danger by Pulling
Entirely Off Road

If called upon to change tire or
make minor car repair while on
the highway, one should remember
to pull entirely off the road. If this
is not possible at the place where
the difficulty occurs, it is the part
of wisdom to drive on for short
distance to find a better spot.
Working on the left side of the
car on a well travelled highway is
exceptionally dangerous. even in
the daytime. At night it may
amount to foolhardiness.

The Old Mechanic Says:

There are some people who seldom
take their cars out in the rain; and
yet they have more rain trouble"
than others who very often drive
around in the wet. It's because peo-
PIE don't realize that there are differ
ent kinds of wet-weather driVin'.
When there's a high wind with the
rain. car that is just parked out in
it for an hour or so may collect so
much water around the coil that II
won't start. This explains why some
people can drive all day in the rain
without gettin into any electrical
trouble at all. It's because there's no
sWeepin wind with the rain.
TWO of my o'd customers travelled
by here one rainy day. The one who
came back here got stalled With a wet
cell just about mile down The road,
While the other driver reached home

without a bit of trouble. The first
chap was drivin into the wind. while
the other went with 1t.
Different kinds of rain affect the
finish of car in different ways. One
of these thundershowers will leave the
body with queer look, due to the
chemical action of the dust in the
rain. Some rain, particularly If there
is much extra" dampness with it,
will turn many cars odd colors tenn
porarily. Other rain will spot.
Exposed brakes will work better in
a light rain than In dry weather, hut
if the roads are full of puddles they
will become water soaked.
Experience with rain depends on
what kind you're out in and where
YOU drive in it. Also it depends on
how YOU drive. Often / think this is
the most important feature Of the
whole business.
