President Uren said insofar as ho could make his influence felt the five million workers of the na tion will never sit still until they curb the judiciary of the state and nation and "bring back freedom to American citizens." The address Mr. (Jreen said, was liia first pronouncement of n mili tunt program for organized labor since he ussr.mcd leadership fol lowing the death of tJumuel Gom pers. Plans for an Intensive cam paign among workers this fall to enroll 10.000.000 additional mem bers of the federation was an nounced. Federal and state judiciary were declared to .ts constantly "en croaching upon oui rights." Mr. Green said he was ready to lead the forces o. organized labor its fight for liberty "even thought my criticism may reach to the courts of our land." He as serted that the president in mak- judicial appointments is "merely the instrument through which senators have their favor ites appointed." Such appointments, he said. 'tend to lowe. me respect of Amcrfcjiis in the judiciary and put men on the bench who are respon- j bio to politicians and not to the people." Street Car Itombed Hons Kong.

Summed up In motto: "Work hard, play hard and smi!e, smile, smile. Whoever does thie consistently is bound to land on hie feet." Miss Virth i.r&c ticca what she preaches. She is said to be able to rehearse longer nours than most male pei formers in circus-land She is an expert at tennis aud polo and through it all she wears a smile that simply won't come off. Aa for "landing on her feet,"- she does that even on the fastest of gal loping horses. She is the daring lady dainty of the sawdust ring. Her forward somersault, perform ed from the back of a homo run ning at top speed, has never been ofjuullej by any other equestrian man or woman. M:iy Wirth and the entire Wirth family, including "Phil the Mar vel," will be here with the Ring- ling Brothers and Barnum & Bail ey circus Saturday, August 29. She will be seen in solo numbers which will include her remarkable forward somersaults. She is the feature of a great galaxy of riders numbering 70 artists. Miss Wirth has surpassed nil others In her branch of the profession. Though idle has many accomplishments as a rider, her amazing somersaults outshine oil the rest. She rarely experiences a fall. This is because she has what circus people term "perfect time.:' "I start to epring through the air at just the second or part of a second when the little watch in side of me eays it's time to go," says she. "Th-il's the only watch we riders have and the only one we ever need. And then I keep right on smiling even when things go wrong. When the face ie re laxed in a smile oil the rest of the body relaxes too. jind so, you see, I always: land on my feet."

Check up on your balloon tire pressures you may find that you have been riding on "high pressure balloons" and losing the advantages of true low air pressure. I'HE whole purpose of low pressure cushion ing is defeated if your balloon tires are pumped up too hard. Of course, it may be that the kind of balloons you are using must be run hard in order to protect the tires themselves. If you find this is true, you will be glad to know the facts about U. S. Royal Balloons. These tires provide all the comfort that balloon tires are intended to give, and yet you need have no fear about the life of the tires when run at proper cushioning pressure. U.S. Royal Balloons are built to be run at true low air pressures. They have the new flat "Low-Pressure Tread." This tread has far greater area of road con tact than a round tread, and distributes the weight evenly over the entire tread surface. That is why U. S. Royal Balloons wear slowly, evenly and gracefully. They have the further advantage of Latex treated Web Cord construction a U. S. Rubber Company invention that gives the ideal combi nation of strength and flexibility essential to real balloon cushioning. Ride on U. S. Royal Balloons and you will know what a world of comfort genuine low pressure can give.
