OF
Steuhenvillc, Ohio, Aug. 11.
.Senatorial courtesy which thrives
on the policy of "you scratch my
back and I'll scratch yours," was
attributed by William Green,
president of the American Federa
tion of lx'bor, in a speech here last
night before the Ohio Federation
of Labor as beinft responsible for
lowering the quality aud capabil
ity of judges appointed recently
to the federal boueh.
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."

"Smile and: You'll Win"
Says Faitf Circus Rider
,ri
May Wirth, eta:- of the "whit
tops," members of the Wirth Fam
ily, and who receives more versee
and flowers than many an idol of
the footlights, is something of a
philosopher. 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.
