The British automobile manufacturers have,produced in "recent years mil lions of cheap, snappy, light antonx* biles, capable of remarkable perform a nee, endurance and high speeds. As the result, they have made serious la roads into the export markets once almost entirely dominated by Americas automobile* manufacturers. -- Got Jump on United States. The British manufacturer gained m heavy advantage over his American competitor when BritaiD went off the," gold standard in 1&31 and the exchange rate of the pound dropped con slderably. With the abandonment of the gold standard by the United States^ however, this advantage to the British manufacturers has been nullified, and the automobile manufacturers o# both countries can compete against each other on level terms again. A warning to the British .manufacturers of an Impending attack by American . automobile manufacturers M recover their losses In the world export markets in was nTade by W. E. Bullock, managing director of Singer & Co., Ltd., well known British light-automobile manufacturers. "The political business revolution now 4n progress In America," W. K. Bullock said, "may be of serious consequence to. the British export trade. It is based almost entirely on a greatly increased output. Forecasts Big Fight. "The Americans realize that with the increased output at which they are aiming, new markets will have to be obtained, and jve can look forward to the most severe competition during the coming season. "Markets 'which the British manufacturer has been able to obtain as a result of the exchange rates will be In danger «f returning to the Americans unless we can provide unusual attractions in our new models." That the British manufacturer ife" fully alive to the situation Is fully shown by the 1934 models whieh are now coming into the home market and aj*e far and away ahead of anything they have hitherto produced. Petronella fcy DREW SHERRARD Four-Day Air Trip From Manila to U. S. Planned Manila.--Within two years' time, 52 passengers will be able to board a* 4.000 horse power plane in Manila and arrive In San Francisco four days later, if present plans of the Pan-American Airways corporation for a passenger- freight service between San Francisco and Hongkong are fully realized, according to MaJ. James H. ("Jlmmie**) Doolittle, famed American speed flyer and test pilot. The schedule of stops, already worked out by Pan-Araerlcan Airways for the San Francisco-Hongkong service, Major Doolittle said, includes Honolulu, Wake'island, Guam and Manila. The company estimates coverage of the proposed route in five days, their planes reaching Manila In four. Designs for the powerful machines necessary for such an undertaking are nearing completion. Outstanding features, will be four 1,000 horse power engines In each plane and a carrying capacity of 52 passengers. The passenger service, according to Doolittle, would he postponed until flights with "only mall and cargo had proved the safety of the transpacific venture.

Queer Fish Collection Philadelphia.--Fish with bubbling mouths, lish that swallow' victims half their size, and fish that carry artificial halt to lure prospective dinners to them were among the 40 species of the finny clan recently brought back by the party of I)r. William Beehe, famous deep sea explorer. Shortly after the 105-foot auxiliary ketch, Antares, docked at Esslngton, Pa., Doctor Beebe hurried to New YoFk with several live specimens, which will be placed on exhibit In the aquarium there. The bubbling variety Is known familiarly as the soapflsh, and another rariety was described as having a long tentacle arising from the head and drooping iiefore ine mouth. The collection was gathered off the Perlas Islands In the. Gulf ef Panama, and in the Chlrig-uf lagoon. |20 wiles, west of Crlstobaj. *C ©.by McCSuri* Newspaper Syndicate. . WNU 8«rvtce PKTRONELLA slipped noiselessly out through the street door. A moment she stood, every sense alert, listening. Voices Inside; they had not missed her, escape was possible. There had be^p a brief April shower an hour before, and as she hurried across the l«wn: and through a gap in the hedge, her-slim, silky were spattered and her velvet-shod feet soaked through. How she hated wet feet!--all manner of discomfort for that matter--but she hurried on, trusting to an innate sense of direction to guide her out of this strange neighbor hood. She had come here in a cab, with Roger Mttyburj, but that wis out of the question now. She must go alone, and by devious-ways-and unfrequented streets. She could not risk the brilliant streets downtown, conspicuous In her dew-drenched lovell .• ness. ' •' From the first she had known she could never be happy at Mrs. Warley's. Itoger, whose mother had befriended Mrs. Warley during her lifetime, and : who had himself with characteristic .kindness financed her when she set up her select little boarding establishment, had thought it just the place for Petronella. But Mrs. Warley, though the soul of kindness, was Incapable of understanding how Petronella felt about the whole thing. She never sus-. tiected that Petronella had spent her three days at Pleasant Cattage restlessly trying to evolve some plan to, get away to Roger. And then, at the; last, there had"been no plan at all, simply overwhelming impulse. Petronella was going to Roger to stake everything on the attempt to make him see things its she did. . Roger Maybury was perhaps a strange person to have Influenced her so. A bachelor, no longer very young, wealthy enough, socially desirable, Just what was hVs attraction for Petronella? Probably she was first drawn to him because of the way he spoke to her, indulgently* whimsically, as If she had been a child. She wasted no -time In reasoning why, she had quite simply known that he was her .man, that she belonged to him. One night when she had been out with her young companions she had seen him, and slipping away from Ihem, she had followed him home. He had been kind, but firm. He had not let her In. Instead, he had invented some excuse for going out himself, and then he had taken her back to her friends and left her. She exulted volcelesSly as she pattered along the wet pavement. Strange, sinister purlieus, a bedraggled woman holding out a detaining hand; a man, starting up out of shadows; saying lyords. A clock boomed twelve, and suddenly she felt a little stabbing thrill at Its familiar tone. The clock on Roger's street! A policeman cAm# Around a corner toward her. She shrahk back into the protecting shadow between two houses. A wooden gate marked "Tradesman," yielded to her slight push, and she darted Inside to crouch breathlessly till the heavy tread' |(assed by. She dared not face the street again. She stole around back of the house and crossed back yards till she reached the place she sought She looked up at the bouse, dark, solid, resectable, at the third-story window oj Roger's room, at Ivy on the walls. She put a foot upon its twisted trunk, and In another moment her lithe body was drawing Itself up the leafy ladder, up to Roger. . * The ledge gained, she looked down and, In the Instant of that downward glance, ulmost lost her hold. She cried out involuntarily. Inside the dimly moonlit room, she saw Roger rise from bed, reach tojr a bathrobe and come cautiously toward the window. "Petronella!" Disregarding his outstretched hand she crept over the sill and jumped lightly down to the floor. He pressed a light switch. She curled up In a cushioned chair and regarded him through half-closed lids. "Petronella, Is this the way to act? Don't you know you are making It d--d difficult for me?" What were words? She knew better ways than words for working her will with this man. Slipping down she crossed the room with delicate, almost mincing steps. Going up close to him she leaned herself against him, making little soft sounds of happiness arjd love. He stood it „ tainut* *v her up to him. - , l,'en slender body aga'»-" pressing her tronella 1*»A DAY DREAMS A dull man's repartee Is an epithet; but jvhat else can he do?

The armistice was, after all, only an armistice until force will have been consecrated; to the service of justice. The victories of peace are more difficult and elusive than the triumphs of war, bijit they are more enduring. The shorts aren't the only ones who sell something they haven't got There's the movie gal who gets paid for acting. A great power Is a nation equipped with all the paraphernalia of war, which would enable it to Impose its will upon the weaker brethren, or to protect Itself against the assaults of others. IM HO'S PHILOSOPHY A monument Is a reminder of greatness, and also, too often, of the fickle ness of fashion In art. ' To seek always the %dvihtllge be reaves life of friendship and .makes it a perpetual bargaining. Differences of opinion become quarrels only when self-interest asserts the power to dismiss candor. We would all be surprised # could know bow many enemies. are creations af our Imaginations.. The possessor of great wealth uiust be prepared to meet both praise and blame that are. often undeserved. The power to command brings but little happiness unless It shows hope and good faith with those who willing ly obey. History Is often generous toward those who make mistakes, provided the mistakes are .sufficiently large And magnificent Peacemakers do not always "succeed In stopping a fight. They somOti nie;< get Into it themselves and only j?uc ceed in making it larger.
