Not wntil three months later, (glvlns time for thot and cooling off!) may a member actually go to war, and not then, If one nation In the quarrel accepts the recommendations made. In case of disputes with non-members, or between non-members, the outsider Is first Invited to come luto the league. Legal tangles (such as the meaning of a treaty, etc.) are settled by a permanent court of Inter national justice. In spite of repub lican opposition to the league, the noted republican Jurist Elihu Boot, has been abroad for the task of es tablishing this court under Instruc tions from the league council.

Edi son knew. He figured out his plan and did It. Now we press the button and the night Is day. Edison is great because ne was first to finish the job. America dug Panama. Others had failed but America mapped out a plan, steamed up Its dredges on de termination and did it. The others had been dreamers, spurred on artd checked alternately by visions of a canal completed, and by collisions with obstacles unforseen. They hadn't prepared to go through with their plan. There wasn't enough power behind their push. They laughed at Columbus when he said he could sail away from Asia and yet reach It. But Columbus did it and he gave to the world Alliance, Grand Island, and all that lies be tween. Let them laugh if they will, then show them.

Firestone has devoted eighteen years to developing the balanced tire, giving light car owners -more mileage at low cost most miles per dollar. The answer to getting more service and more uniform service out of all four tires is the Firestone 32. It is more than thickness of tread or amount of rub ber and fabric,; greater cushioning or greater air capacity. It is proper bai-ance-the way each of these compo nent parts of a Firestone 3& tire is made to co-ordinate. Sales of this tire increased 96 for the first six months of this year. The result justifies the effort because the stamp of approval has been set by the public on the Firestone 3& tha balanced tir. 0 ( non skid ) 98 S Gray Tube $3.75 Red Tube $450 1 Mwmm in n mi 1 ' ' ' V,
