sembly, which might permit the car
to swerve.
90 The distance from the rear
axle to the back of the driver should
be not less than eight inches. If you
have too much weight over the back
wheels, 1t acts like a see-saw, and
even the best steering arrangement
won't work. A number of cars had
trouble last year because there was
too much weight in the back Of the
car. The distance from the rear
axle to the back of the driver in the
1899 champions car was IA inches.
Before covering your car try it
out by having someone push you,
and have one of your front wheels
run over a one-inch thick block of
wood. If you have built your steer
ing arrangement according to the
above instructions, you'll find that
you will continue In a straight line
without swerving, and you can be
sure that you'll have no trouble in
guiding your car In the 1910 Derby.
Register now for Washington's
third consecutive Soap Box Derby,
sponsored by The Star and the
American Legion. Build a racer
be at the course on Derby Day, July
Is, and have the thrill of a life
time.

Tinkham Opposes Navy's Plea
For Canton Island Plane Base

WASHINGTON, June 5-R-The
navy's request for 81, 800, 900 to es-
tablish a seaplane base on tiny
Canton island in the Paciic-which
this country and Great Britain
jointly control-drew a protest to-
day from Rep. Tinkham (R-Mass)
that it might involve the United
States in the European war.
The funds were sought in the
supplemental estimates which
President Roosevelt submitted to
congress yesterday. Upon learning
of the proposal, Tinkham immedi-
ately protested to the appropria-
tons subcommittee considering the
estimates and was promised a
hearing. He said he would battle
it on the house floor unless the
committee eliminated it.
Tinkham commended that there
was no assurance that this coun-
try would retain clear title to the
airbase inasmuch as Great Britain
claimed the island.
The island is one of two in the
south Pacific over which both the
United States and Great Britain
claim sovereignty. The second is
Enderbury island. After a race to
occupy them, the two n a o n S
agreed by an exchange of notes in
April, 1889, to exercise joint con-
troll without prejudicing their re-
spective claims.
In a speech in the house last
March, Tinkham asserted that the
arrangement constituted a secret
military alliance with Great Brit
ain under which the United States
would have to join Britain in de-
tense of the islands if an enemy
attacked them.
The United States is being de-
%liberately entangled in Asia for
British political purposes" Tink-
ham charged at that time. Brit
ish economic interests in Asia are
ten times greater than those of
the United States"
Tinkham declared that President
Roosevelt and Secretary Hull had
been guilty of collusive action in
entering into this alliance with
Great Britain in relation to these
islands, and said that 'secret dip
lomacy has dominated the situa-
ton from start to finish" l
