TREATY SETTLES
ISLAND DISPUTE
Turtle Group May Be Given
To America And Admin
istered BY British

WASHINGTON, July 3o.-(P-
The last outstanding question OF
sovereignty over insular possessions
in the Pacific is expected to be
settled this week with the signing OF
a treaty between the United States
and Great Britain.
Negotiations to determine the
sovereignty of the Turtle islands
and establish the southern boundary
Of the Philippines have been con-
Guided here and are incorporated in
a treaty being drafted by the state
DEPARTMENT. An unusual arrange
ment, acknowledging American SOW
ereignty in the Turtle Islands and
assigning administration to the
British, is expected to be evolved.
The negotiations have been going
on only a few days.
The Turtle group includes seven
islands of minute size with a total
population of 900 near the coast OF
British Borneo. Since 1885 the
islands have been administered by
the British government under the
provisions Of a Spanish German
British protocol. After the Philip
pine Archipelago was coded to the
United States by Spain in 1898, the
United States entered into a pro-
visional agreement with Great Brit
ain whereby the administration was
toccntirue in British hands, al
though the United States was fully
recognized as having complete SOW
ereignty.
The question was dealt with by q
commission established by the two
governments.

She was sitting behind q large

The motorist of today Is constantly
puzzled in touring as he enters cities.
thus causing confusion in his mind and
impairing his driving control. This
would have a tendency to cause accl-
dents"
From Philadelphia comes the report
of Robert p. Hooper, president. William
e. Hooper & Sons Co., a member OF
the traffic committee in his home city
as we'll as the committee of the natfelal
organization. "Our city has already
adopted the provisions governing the
left turn in the Hoover code and we
consider it absolutely essential that all
large cities adopt as near to uniform
traffic regulation as possible. Other
wise, the ignorance of strangers as to
the rules would constantly increase the
dangers which ever are present in all
traffic"
Thomas H. Carrow superintendent OF
safety, the Pennsylvania Railroad. also
of Philadelphia, writes that the Hoover
turn, adopted there, meets with his ap-
prevail and he thinks uniformity OF
pre-eminent importance. We have found
It so on the railroads, which have a uni
form set of operating rules applicable
on every railroad IN the OEiteu oCdoeo
Uniformity tends to give all concerned
the benefit of the best methods, it OBJ
viates repetition of instructions and in
sures uniform action under given cir
cumstances by individuals who may be
removed from their usual environment.
One of the first steps in accident pre-
vention Is uniformity in rules and regu-
lations."
Pittsburgh Adopts Turn.
Pittsburgh, too, has adopted the
Hoover left turn, according to Lewis w.
Mcintyre, consulting street traffic spe-
cialist, University of Pittsburgh. uni
formity removes one element in the
confusion one feels in driving in
strange community; confusion causes
accidents and loss of life; hence removal
of confusion prevents accidents and
saves lives. It helps one predict what
the other driver is going to do. This
again makes for traffic safety and speeds
