RELIEF T0 RUSSIAN COOPERATIVES AN American Lawyers in Mos- cow to Clear Title to Millions in Goods or Money. By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, November 13.—In an ef- fort to straighten out legal technical- fties with regard to Russian and American trade, due to the recent re- vival of the Russian co-operative bus- iness, a commission of American lawyers has reached Moscow on the invitation of the co-operative leaders. Their work involves straightening out the title to many millions of dol- lars worth of goods or money in the United States, held by the co-opera- tive tocleties prior to the bolshevik 1evolution, and to consider present and future trade possibilities. Col. Victor E. Ruehl. an attorney author- ized by the New York state and the federal courts in New York to accept aMdavits in Russia; Ma J. A. Willis, attorney for the States War Department, which dealt extensively with the co-operative societies prior 10 the revolution, and Charles A. Marshall of New York, counsel in America for the Russian co-opera- tives, compose the commission. W them is George Link of the Russian department of the National City Bank of New York, the depositary of the cooperative societies. The tended that they are separate from the bolshevik government and that, therefore, whatever Russlan governs» ment property is held in escrow im America because of debt repudiation they should be independent of it However, due to the non-recognition of Russia by the United States, no proof obtained in Russia regarding this view could be recoghized In the American courts until Col Ruehl was authorized to perform notarial pow- ers here. The co-operative societies contend that they are fundamentally private organizations. They are just observe ing their twenty-fifth anniversary in Moscow and the board of directors includes nearly 50 per cent of the same personnel as prior to the bol- shevik revolution, The present government plaris that the co-operative societies shall re- ceive even lauger independent power than they now have. It is hoped that they will conclude agreements with the United States similar in im- portance to the recently formed Anglo-Russian Graln Ixport Com- Pany. “PROFOUNDLY UNJUST,” TEMPS SAYS OF WILSON Paris Paper Says Attack Will Work Hard With Cause He Espouses. 4 Press.

Whitcomb, Just so it is with the teeth in the gears of a motor car. A day’s neglect or a few days’ seems to go by unnoticed. But, in the long run, gear neglect is both annoying and expensive. Different from the human teeth, the gear teeth require only semi-occasional atten- tion, provided it is the right attention. Gears with good health and manners should run quietly and smoothly, change silently and easily in hot or cold weather, and de- liver full engine power, thus saving gas and showing hill climbing ability when wanted. Ebonite will protect the gears and lengthen car life. With one filling of the gear cases you will have enough for an entire motoring season.
