Gates Adding Bear Alignment Service For Motorists Here Bear alignment equipment, com plete with seta of guagra and tools, for frame and axle straightening, cor recti n 5 faulty steering assembly and wheel alignment, has been added by the C. E. Gates Auto company, ac cording to an announcement yester day by George Gates, F. N. Car ru th ere of Tacoma. Wash., alignment ex pert. Is In Med ford supervlslong the Installation of the complete Bear equipment, Heinrd1iiff the new service, George Gates has the following to say: "This is the method used and recommend ed by praetlcslly all Important auto mobile manufacturers, because It Is the most accurate method known and the only system that returns every car and truck to original factory specifications so that it r steers like new. "No feature of automotive service has come so prominently to public attention during the past few years, as the maintenance of alignment In te front axle and wheels. This Is because the combination of balloon tires, front wheel brakes and high speed result In loss of steering con trol and cause a large per cent of the automobile accidents on our streets and highways. "Perhaps the most frequent sources of trouble la a slight bend or twist In the front axle which throws the wheels out of line and scrapes the tires sideways along the road. It also causes shimmy, wandering, weaving and hard steering. "An essential feature of the new Bear equipment Is the fact that it Includes an axle press which strength ens bent or twisted axles In the car by cold process, which does not af fect the temper of the metal nor weaken the axle. By correcting twist ed axles In the car It saves the car being tied up for two days while the axle Is removed for straightening." Mr. Gates believes that offering such a service to Jackson county mo torists la a real forward step In acci dent prevention, and that use of the service will also save motorists many dollars in tire replacements. The new service Is now ready and motorists are offered a first checkup without charge. OF ,74, Louis Gibson passed away south of Phoenix Monday afternoon at the age of 74.

L ACT DUE FOR LEGAL TEST IN HOYLMAN CASE Suit to test the constitutionality of Oregon habitual criminal act, which provides mandatory life Imprisonment as the penalty, was announced by Attorney George M. Roberta In circuit court this morning, at the opening of the trial of Raleigh Hoylman, 33, na tive of Josephine county, charged with being a habitual criminal. Hoyl mun, under a nine-year sentence, for conviction of forgery, burglary, and auto theft, has four previous convic tions for felonies on his record. It la the first time in the history of Jackson county that the habitual criminal act has been Invoked against a defendant. Hoylman stood mute when called upon to plead, and his counsel waived the right to make an opening state ment, and declined to question Jur ors. Attorney Roberts appointed by the court to defend Hoylman, In ref erence to the wording of a, section of the habitual criminal law, character ized it, as "ridiculous, asinine, and meaning nothing." J. S. Murray, keeper of the state prison records, waa listed as a state witness. Most of the state's case was documentary. Hoylman waa first con victed In this county, and sentenced to state prison for forgery commit ted at Ashland. Forgery has been his besetting sin. None of his crimes have been vicious. The sheriff's office re ported, "Hoylman will run every time he gets a chance, but he won't hurt anybody." The case Is expected to be conclud ed early this afternoon.

THREAT OF FLOODS ADDED TO MISERY ZONE (Continued from Page One) forecast for tornado-wracked states to the west. Storm-bred fires, which added heav ily to the Gainesville death toll,- still smouldered today. WPA workers, con victs and national guardsmen dug through debris of the business dis trict to recover the last of the victims. Search for Victims. Civilians and soldiers searched for more victlma In Tupelo as the be reaved set out to bury their dead. Bodies recovered in Mississippi to taled more than 200. Twenty-four deaths were recorded In Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas and South Carolina. Tornadoes last Thursday killed 43 persons, centering their fury upon Cordele, Ga., and Greensboro, N. C. Death of injured persons added to the Gainesville toll today, 4 act. They think he okayed the Vi enna move In order to give the Ethi opian sanctioning nations something to think about. By ordering conscriplon. Austria violated the treaty of St. Germain. It represents Just as serious a viola tion as Hitler in a legal sense. What European nations will have next Is a new set of treaties opeclfl cally legalizing violations, Just as the London naval treaty does. - (Continued xtom rage One) fact In itself is sufficient reason for believing that current bombings and border incidents will lead only to a strengthening of the Japanese mili tary situation. The war will come later. Note. Outer Mongolia la not yet a part of the Soviet union. But It borders on the autonomous Buryat Mangollan republic, which la Rus sian territory. The people of both countries arc of the same race. Moscow has been training Its Buryat subjects and sending them Into outer Mongolia aa missionaries. The result has been a mutual assistance pact between the Soviet union and outer Mongolia. The secret understanding between Toklo and Berlin la supposed to be somewhat one-sided. It provides that if the Japanese decide to move against Russia, no obligation rests upon Germany to Join immediately. But If Germany decides to go, the Japanese will move at once. This information Is in the hands of com petent authorities here. They be lieve that Japanese aggression would not Immediately cause. a world war, but German aggression would.

Last year It waa "psychology." No speaker on any subject waa considered good unless he discussed the "psychological aspects." Thla year It is "philosophy." House stenogs have tired of apeechea begin ning, "The philosophy of thla legis lation,' blah, blab. blah. The popularity of these two words during the last two aessiona la at tributed to the fact that if a speaker does not know the detaila of his subject ha can speak freely about the psychology or philosophy of It.
