. .1 _ Ah Attractive Floor . ~
.oleumfln seams are practically invisible af--
her they have been sealed with our special
mrproof cement. The result is a pleasing
floor. whose attractiveness is enhanced by the
, smooth. unbroken surface of the linoleum.
- Our method of laying gives you a welloflnlsh-
ed floors. and helps to bring out the real
beauty of the linoleum you select from our
stock.
A Resilient Floor
'. By our method the layer of leadening felt
is first pasted to the underfloor and the lino-
leum in turn is pasted to the felt. all seams
and ,edges being sealed with waterproof
cement. The felt, therefore, increases the
resilience. warmth. and quietness of the lino-
leum. Your linoleum floor. put down by our
skilled layers, will be a delight to walk upon.
dad a comfort to tired feet.
5 . A Durable Floor
Genuine linoleum made of cork and linseed
'oil on a burlap back, laid by our improved
method. will give years of satisfactory senice.
(lamenting linoleum down makes it wear
evenly and the layer of felt. acting as s. cush-
ion absorbs the heavy cl lWB of footsteps and
lengthens the life of the linoleum appreci-
ably. Waterproofing the seams prevents all
Zdunage from dampness.
Makes A Permanent Floor ‘
‘ Linoleum is only as good as it is laid. Our
method of cementing it down solidly over a
layer- of heavy deadening felt makes it a part
of the floor —- no more bulging.‘ no more
stretching. no more breaking. _ Your linoleum
‘will not be a mere floor covering. it will be-
come- a permanent floor at once. After it is
laid you are not bothered by workmen ro-
turnlng to trim it.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 8. American
opinion as to Germany's future un-
der the Dawes Plan lereflected in
a series of statements from promin-
ent Americans. including Secretary
Mellon and Chairman Borah of the
Senate Foreign Relations-Commit.
tee. compiled here and cabled to the
Berliner Tageblatt for pubhcation on
New Year's Day.
There are fifteen replies from pub-
lic oclclals, bankers and othersJu
the symposium which is based on
this inquiry.
“What is your opinion about 53er-
many's future and about her ‘pros-
poets in the development of new po-
litical and business relations all the
world over. and especially with
America?" '4.
Secretary Mellon replied that in-
auguration of the Dawes plan mark-
ed a new era in German economic
and politicalrelations.
Mellon Sees New Splrit
“One of the first effects of the
Dawes plan." he said. “has been the
growthlof a new mental attitude and
outlook on the part of the people
or Germany and of all Europe. A
new spirit of unity and a single de-
sire for peaceful and amicable ad-
,lustments is apparent. Tue people
are thinking Index-ms of co opera-
uon rather than conflict.
“Upon the German people them-
selves the actual burden of repara-
tion is not so great or so disheart-
enlng as the uncertainty under which
they have labored. Already s. cer-
rain sense of relief and something
of the old-time industrial vigor and
thrift are prevsdlng your country
and there exists a. wholesome an
of confidence that your ob-ig'aiiuns
can be met and the country. restor—
ed to its pro-war industrial great—
ness.
“There is no fear that s. rehabilita-
tlonofGermanywill beamenaceto
the trade and industry of other
countries.
Borah Favors More’l‘ime
Senator Borah declared the Dawes
plan should be regarded as "only a
step" in settlement of the reparation
problem.
“it would be fatal in my Judgment
toaseumethatthleisailthatlsto
be done." he continued. “The ultl.
mate amount which Germany is to
pay ought to be fixed and fixed with-
in reason. No plan can ever be suc-
cessful until the final amount is ad-
Justed.
“Furthermore, I do not think the
Dawes plan gives Germany sufficient
time. and i am posftivoly certain that
any system which places the bank-
ing. transportation and fiscal system
of thb German people under foreign
control can only lest for a limited
length of time.
“I think there should be a general
economic conference in which these
economic problems. upon the 'solu-
Lion 01 which depends the recovery
of Europe. might be adjusted upon
a permanent bade."

ALCOHOL TRUCKS
RELEASED BY
JUDGE THOMAS
Decision of Fe 6 eral
Jurist Tests Poiver of
Government to Check
Transportation
HARTFORD. Jan. 2,-Consider—
able significance is attached to the
decision of Judge Edwin 3. Thomas
when in U. 8. District court Wod-
nesday he ordered returned the two1
motor trucks which had been seized
transporting more than 1, 500 gal-
lons of grain alcohol from Paw-
tucket to New York recently. If the
right of the Government. resorting
to the old Internal Revenue statue
of 1868. is not sustained by the Cir~
cult Court of Apeals. then there is
no effective weapon left. the Gov.
ernment to combat the transporta-
tion or liquors. it was said tonight.
Section twenty six of the Nation-
al Prohibition act wovded for the
seizure of any aut-nuoblle being
used in the transportation of in-
toxicating liquora. The same surtlon
of the same ac: also p:ovlded tor
the reclamation of ill confiscated
machines by the condithuai vend-
ors or other parties in interest in
the automobiles. '
According to the federal author-
lties the bootleggers and rum run-
ners soon seized upon this reclam-
matlon loophole ‘as a means of cs~
cape.
Judge Thomas held that the
Government had failed
that the alcohol was being trans--
ported with an intent to defraud
the Government of its rightful tux
requesting further that'the Govern-
ment go to the Circuit Court of Ap-
peals to decide whether or not the
old Internal Revenue statute oi
to prove —
1866 is still in eifect on the mooted
point of seizure on the case of in-
tended to: defrauding. '
Judge Thomas made his decision
ordering the restoration of the
trucks to the claimants upon the
payment of all storage and handling
charges to date, in spite of the fact
that no federal revenue in stamps
or stencils were found on the two
sewed truckloads of liquor.

Next morning. as he was going to
