Power EmcIsncy.

Power depends upon a thorough
state Of efficiency In every component
part Of the engIne-whenever or
wherever any part Is weak or inefi.
cient power production is inevitably
reduced. In the case OF piston rings
this is particularly true. Piston rings
must perform the particular service
for. which they are installed In the
motor-that Of securing proper com.
pression, OF fun and sustained produc.
ton Of power Is impossible. There 10
no eyading the consequence should
they prove deficient in this respect.
Compression IL essential to operation
and piston rings are used for the sin.
gle purpose Of making perfect com.
preston possible, by sealing up the
combustion chamber Of the cylinder
against Eas leakage. They at around
the piston head and by means OF their
spring close the space between piston
head and cylinder wall. A thin Aim
OF oil serves to make them effectuaily
gas tight.

REPORTS
BILL TO AID NEWMAN
Measure Provides Civil Com
missioners Need Not Be Three
Year Residents.

In accordance with the recent action
of the House District Committee. Con-
gresham Caraway has made a formal
report on his bill providing that civil
ian Commissioners Of the District need
not be actual three-year residents OF
this city.
The Caraway bill. introduced about a
month ago when the Newman contro-
versy was being aired in the courts,
valves the three-year residence qualifi-
cation and would permit the President
to go anywhere to obtain a civil Com
missioner for the District.
The passage of the bill would enable
the President to reappoint Mr.. New
man. even il he should be finally ousted
by the courts.
1T Is neither wise nor patriotic to
limit the choice of Commissioners of
the District to people residing within
its bounds says the Caraway report.
for It frequently happens that one is
not able to view dispassionately and IN
broad and statesmanlike manner
issues that are purely local. The fight
now being waged by certain interests
against one of the present Commission
ers because he advocated a fair read
justment ocf the proportional tax to
be borne by the Federal Government is
sufficient evidence of this statement.
and makes imperative the demand that
this condition be remedied.''
Mr.. Caraway also reported his bill to
arportion jobs In the District govern
ment equally among the several States
and to divide up jobs under the District
government among applicants from all
over the Union.

there is nothing the matter with their

prove them TO be in a diseased condi-
