ADVICE TOOWNERS
Fewer Repairs Would Be Neces-

Fundamentals.

According to one Of the best posted
automobile drivers in Washington. there
would be fewer motor car repair shops
and a great deal of pleasure added to
motoring if the owners of cars would
study the mechanical operation and the
fundamental principles Of gasolene
motor.
The majority of owners Of automo-
biles. he claims, know absolutely moth
ing about them except to drive them
and supply gasolene. water. and oil.
and oftener the latter is not used until
something goes wrong and the repair
man finds that the owner has Forgotten
to put any in the crankcase.

THAT
LITERACY TEST
WILL BE KEPT
IN NEW BILL

Washington, March n.-Whether the
literacy test shall be retained in the
Burnett immigration bill by the SEN
ate committee is to be determined to-
morrow when it is planned to COM
plete consideration of the measure for
submission to the Senate. Precautions
were made by several members of the
committee tonight that the literacy
test as il passed the House would be
retained despite doubt as to the recep-
ton it might receive at the White
House.
President Wilson has had no hes
itancy in telling senators who have
sought his opinion on the subject that
he does not favor the literacy test as
a means of restricting immigration.
These senators, however, are in doubt
as TO whether the President will veto
4 hill containing such provision and
apparently a majority OF the commit
tee propos to vote for the literacy
test regard .ess of the prospect OF a
veto.
1t was suggested tonight, however,
that so much opposition might de-
velop in the Senate that substitute re-
strictive features might be agreed up
on before the bill reaches the Presi-
dent. Senator Sheppard of Texas talk
ed with the President about the bill
today Senator Sheppard said later
that he believed the bill would be re-
ported substantially in it's present
shape.

The result of the drastic action in shut
ting off food became apparent at once.
Men began leaving the camp. BY night
fall the army, which had numbered 1500
on Monday and dwindled to 1900 or 1900
yesterday, had been further reduced to
about 600 men, whose leaders We're finding
it difficult to hold them in hand.
This hegira is proving disastrous to the
rural districts of Yolo county, which are
now overrun by hundreds of hungry men
who appear at orchard homes and en-
force with threats their demands for food.
Perhaps half the male population of the
county was on duty tonight as special
guards for the protection of homes and
property.
While the shutting off of food is in a
measure solving the problem that has
confronted California communities for the
last four months. the situation with re-
gard to the several hundred irreconcil-
ables bent on marching on the national
capital regardless of all obstacles is des-

permit them to pass through this city. a

them across their lines. Plans to ship
the men in small groups in various direc-

of reorganization. fell fiat tonight when
the railroad companies refused to carry
them.
Governor Hiram Johnson declared today
that the problem was not one of men in
voluntarily out OF employment, but of
men who preferred vagrancy and would
not work.
