will oppose Townsend In the primaries. "Senator Townsend's volunteer workers have reported expenditures aggregating more than $3,000 already, with the primary election three months away," said Kelley. "If it takes three thousand dollars to get the old Newberry machine from the garage, I'm wondering how much it will take to keep the old fhing going all' summer. "This report -of expenditures made for months in advance of the primary ought to serve as a warning as to what may be expected as the campaign advances. It is the logical result of contesting a primary election campaign outside the spirit of Michigan law. The Michigan law provides a limit of $3,750 upon a candidate for senator. "To escape this limitation and permit unlimited expenditure the device of handling the- campaign through "acornmittee" has .been Invented.

BATTER 0 ES

Lifting Labor's Yoke

Go into a big industrial plant or railway station today and you will see little electric trucks, like ants, bearing huge weights many times their own size. One such truckpropelled by a tireless Exide-Ironclad Battery, does the work of eight men, speeds production, and releases man-power from the back-breaking toil of bearing burdens for the skilful work of hand and eye. From propelling mine locomotives and lighting farm homes to supplying

the current that sends your voice over the telephone, Exide Batteries play a vital role in the drama of American life. Experience in making batteries for every purpose since the dawn of the storage battery industry is built into the Exide for your automobile. When you need a new battery or when your present battery no matter what make it is needs repairing, let an Exide Service Station be helpful to you.

IRELAND

NOW

HAS

A MERCHANT FLET

INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE "WASHINGTON, May 9 An Irish merchant marine fleet, the first in history, is being made ready for op

eration to ward on British trade and

to carry out the 'boycott on all the British shipping lines .declared by

the national convention of the Amer lean Association for the recognition of Ireland.

The first ship of the fleet Irish

owned and Irish directed will make

its maiden voyage from the port of

r-ew Tork on June 1, carrying Irish tri-color and the American flag,

it was announced here today. The

first freighter of the new line will sail within ten days. All of the

crews are to be Irish-American.

It is estimated that the trade between the United States and Ireland which amounted to be about $40,000,000 worth of exports from the United States and J3S,000,000 worth of imports of Irish products to the United States last year will be trebled through the operation of the new fleet. A drive will be made to attract American tourists to the Emerald Isle and special tourist trips are being arranged by the United Irish Lines, which will direct the fleet. , The project is understood to have the endorsement of the government of the Irish Free State and supporters of the Irish Republic in the United States are subscribing funds to finance the venture. "Ireland is the richest and at the same time the poorest country in the world at the present time," said Miss Elizabeth June, National Seoretary of the American-Irish Inorganized" "ogA9ljlaarlEjaAll a a dustrlal development association, organized through voluntary subscriptions to develop industries in Ireland to promate trade with the United States, declared today. "The Irish merchant marine fleet win serve two purposes help the United States to revive its Industries and to restore the Irish ports to their former position of greatness."
