?M PETITIONS
By Unltod News
WASHINGTON, May 12 Renewing
charges of American brutality in
JHalti, delegates of the "Patriotic
jUnion of Haiti,1' have prepared a mem
orial for petition to President 'Hard
ing, the department of state, the for
eignaffairs committee of the house
and the foreisn relntions committer
of the senate. The report will be
presented Monday.
American occupation of the island
republic is characterized as the "most
terrible regime of military autocracy
which has ever been carried on In
the name of the great American dem
ocracy." Withdrawal of American
troops and reparations for alleged
wrongs are sought.
fThe delegates who filed the report
are H. Pauleus Salmon, former Hai
tian secretary of foreign affairs, an 1
Former .Minister to the United States.
Stenio Vincent, former president of
the Haitian senate and Percjval The
by, former charge of the Haitian le
gation here.
Americans, it is charged, were re
sponsible for the death of 4,000 pris
oners at Cape Haitien, and 3500 at
Chabert in three years. Officers and
marines are charged with administra
tion of the' water' cure, "abominable
crimes" and tortures of prisoners.
General Smedley D. Butier, with a
'detachment of marines, is accused of'
having dissolved the Haitian senate
by force. Marines are charccd -with
having corrupted elections and wjth I
the seizure of $300,000 government1
funds to force acceptance of customs
control.
Haitians, it is claimed, were refus
ed the right to testify at courts of
inquiry about numerous cases of
"murder, brutality, rape, arson, and
so on."
These courts of inquiry were con
stituted during the democratic admin
istration to investigate charges made
at -that time. They exonerated the
American administration of the island.
The effect of the renewed clnree8,
It is expected, will bo another Inves
tigation. Senator Hiram Johnson of
California has offered a resolution
prbviding for this-, as has Represen
tative Bland of Indiana.

The New LlGHT-SlX now holds the five most important automobile road
records on the Pacific Coast, a remarkable feature being that all the
honors were won by the same car, a stock touring car, within ten weeks
1. Yosemite National Park. A Studebaker Light
SlX, piloted by Hart L. Weaver and carrying a crew of
five men from the Chester N. Weaver Company, wa3 the
first automobile to reach the Yosemite National Park
over any one of the three snow covered roads under its
own power this year. The car went over the narrow
and dangerous Coulterville road, bucking snow as deep
as ten feet in some places, arriving in Yosemite Valley,
January 16.
2. Round Trip Record Between San Francisco
and Los Angeles. On February 2 the same car,
driven by Hart L. Weaver and James F. Gurley of the
Chester N. Weaver Company, established a new round
trip record between San Francisco and Los Angeles, a
distance of 864.8 miles, in the sensational time of 21
hours and 23 minutes.
3. Coast Route Record from San Francisco to
Los' Angeles. On the round trip record of February 2
rthe Studebaker LlGHT-SlX lowered the coast route record
.from San Francisco to Los Angeles by 2 hours, 35
minutes and 20 oeconds. The former record was 12
hours, 47 minutes and 50 seconds, the time of the Stude
baker LIGHT-SIX being 10 hours, 12 minutes and 30
seconds for the distance of 453.7 miles. The pilots were
Hart L. Weaver and James F. Gurley.
4. Valley Route Record Between. Lot Angeles,
and San Francisco. On February 24 the Studebaker
LIGHT-SIX smashed the valley route record between Los
.Angeles and San Francisco, running the distance of 411.1
miles in the remarkable time of 9 hours, 15 minutes and
50 seconds. This record was made all the more remark
able on account of the car having to go through a dense
foe a distance of more than 100 muea between Talare
and Merced. The pilots were Hart L. Weavsc and
fame F. Gurley.
This U a Studebaker Year
5. Los Angeles Phoenix Record. On the morning
of March 23 the LlGHT-SlX left Los Angeles in an at
tempt to lower the fifth and only remaining record of
consequence on the Pacific Coast. The 422 miles of
desert trail from Los Angeles to Phoenix were made in
13 hours 16 minutes, and 2 hours 28 minutes were taken
from the best previous automobile record. The railroad
time is 14 hours 20 minutes, or 1 hour 4 minutes slower
than the record established by the LlGHT-SlX.
Hart L. Weaver of the Chester N. Weaver Company,
Studebaker Distributors in San Francisco, made the
following statement after the completion of the Los
Angeles -Phoenix run:
' These tests have demonstrated on the road every
thing that Studebaker engineers have claimed for the
new LlGHT-SlX-cylinder car. When it is remembered
that the bore and stroke of this car is only 3 x 4.
giving it a piston displacement of 207 cubic inches, and
that the car fully equipped only weighs 2500 pounds,
these records are all the more remarkable since most of
them were formerly held by heavier cars costing much
more than the Studebaker LlGHT-SlX. I am inclined to
believe that the secret of this car's wonderful perform
ance, and readability is due in a very large measure to its
remarkable balance. Halved, or quartered the parts of
the new LlGHT-SlX would weigh approximately the same.
"In making the Los Angeles - Phoenix record I am
frank to confess that despite my faith in the stamina of
Studebaker automobiles I could sot believe that any car
could make the speed over that desert road with its nits
and chuck holes that was necessary in order to lower the
record by a large margin without falling to pieces. Any
automobile, irrespective of weight, power or price class
that can lower the record established by the Studebaker
Light-Six will have my moat aiooare admiration."
