Canal Officials Summoned to
Washington Transfer. Is
Anticipated.
A clnsh between Governor GeorgtrW.
GoethalB of the Panama Canal Zone,
and Brig. Gen. Clarence R. Edwards,
commanding the United States troops In
tho Zone, that may result In a Bhake-
up o f tho prmy forces on tho canal, will
be fought out when these two officials
reach Washington. ...
There aro strong Intimations that thv.
Administration will transfer General
Edwards to another command to avoid
further clashes. War Department
ofllclnls said that they had been sum
moned to tho Capital to nppcur before
committee of Congress, but admitted
that tho fight will probably como to a
head when the two officials reach Wash
ington. ...
rhe clash; according to -reports, arose
over tho division ol authority between
them.
Ono of the main causes of trouble has
been over tho question of suitablo build
ings to houso the military forces.
oUethals has been limited In his ex
penditures bl lack of appropriations,
officials said, while Edwards has
blamed Goethala for delay In construc
tion. A general airing of Panama canal
affairs is anticipated. The House
Committee on IntorstateCommprce la
expected to ask Governor Goethals
pointed questions regarding the con
tinued slides blocking the canal.
General Edwards Is to appear be
fore tho fortifcatlons subcommittee
of tho Sonato Appropriations Com
mittee. Paragon
Typewriter
Ribbons
are the best
WE realized years ago,
when we first started
to make Paragon Rib
bons, that they had to be the
best at whatever cost.
There was a special reason
the Remington Typewriter.
We make the Remingtdn
and we make the ribbon. We
started to make the ribbon for
the Remington. No writing
machine can do better work
than its ribbon, therefore none
but the best ribbon is good
enough for the Remington
Typewriter.
So you 6ce that Paragon
Ribbons had to be the best
not only for their own sake but
for the machine's sake. This
double incentive has produced
the best ribbon the ribbon
that outsells them all.
Of course there are other
reasons for Paragon Ribbon
leadership. Wc are ike type
writer ribbon manufacturers
with the best facilities, and the
most complete knowledge of
the qualities in a ribbon that
typewriter users want and
how to produce what they
want But all of -these reasons
have followed from the first.
It was Remington leadership
which demanded and produced
Paragon leadership.
But do not think that the
Paragon Ribbon is simply a
Remington affair. What the
Paragon Ribbon has done for
the Remington, it has done,
incidentally, for every other
writing machine. Paragon
Ribbons, of absolutely uniform
quality, are made for all makes
of typewriters.
