M'fARLAND talks ABOUT
SIGNIFICANT auto POINTS
If Engine Is to Give Best Results
Temperature of Water in Cooling
System Should Be Between $50
and 40 Degrees

"The temperature of the water with
in the cooling system of an automobile
engine should average between $50
and 170 degrees, if the engine is to
give the best results. declares George
q. Mcfarland, president and general
manager of the Harrisburg Automobile
Company.
Any great deviation from this tenn
perature range will produce very
marked effect upan the gasoline con
sumption as we'll as the power of the
engine. The proper degree of heat is
as essential in the economic operation
of gas engine as it is in the produc-
tion of steam for a. steam engine. The
gasoline now beingsold win not evapo-
rate at temperatures lower than five
degrees above zero unless heat is ap,
piled, and if the proper temperature is
not maintained in the cylinders, the
combustion of the fuel is incomplete.
The grades of gasoline have gradually
become lower, and the problem of main
tanning the best working temperature
has increased correspondingly.
"The effect of low motor tempera-
ture is best demonstrated on a steep
hill. With the motor temperature down
to about so degrees, it is very prob
able that the hill cannot be taken on
high gear, though if the temperature is
brought up to at least $50 degrees, the
hill could be taken on high with ease.
The radiator or cooling surface must
be designed to take care of the most
extreme conditions in hot weather, to
eliminate any possibility of overheat-
ing. There is an atmospheric tempera-
ture range of from 40 degrees in the
South to 140 degrees in the North and
west sections of the country, so that
lsis not reasonable to expect the cool
ing system to retain the desired heat at
the other extreme of zero temperature.
The most practical method of
maintaining the proper motor tempera
ture is to use some sort of temperature
indicating device in the radiator and
then cover up part of the radiator
accordingly. This is very simple ex-
pedient and effects wonderful results,

OF INTEREST TO MOTORISTS

the absence Of national law state
has perfect right to enact whatever
laws it may see fit in relation to the
automobile. Furthermore Justice Nc
Reynolds holds that "the movement of
motor vehicles over the highways is
attended by constant and serious
danger to the public, and is also alb
normally. destructive to the highway
itself" Further on the Justice states:
I'm the absence of national legislation
covering the subject. state may right
fully prescribe uniform regulations
necessary for public safety and order
in respect to the operation upon its
highways of all motor vehicles-those
moving in interstate commerce as well
as Others
President Wilson. of the A. A. A.,
commenting upon the situation, says:
THE inference of the highest court
that there should be national law
covering the subject should prompt our
immediate attention to the matter, for
it is certainly most unusual situa-
tion when citizen of the United
States is not free to travel in anv sec
tion of the country after he has pro.
vided himself with an Identification
number from his home state. The Euro
pean countries, with different. lam
guages and different customs, have
agreed upon an International plate of
identity, and also an international
triptyque relating to customs duties.
For instance, motorist of France after
having obtained home number
which incidentally allows him to op-
crate ear in any part of France
then obtains in his own country an
international plate which is acceptable
in practically every other country in
Europe. and he can cross and re.cross
international boundary lines without
any trouble whatever. Surely if Euro.
pean countries can agree in a matter
of this sort, it does not seem reason.
able that the several states of the
Union and the CAPITAL district of the
country should be unable to provide
for free and uninterrupted roads travel.
1t is now generally recognized that a
state must provide sturdier road con.
struetion because of the multiplying of
a faster and more economical road We.
h:ele. With logical plan of federal
participation with the several states a
large percentage of highways expense

would be transferred to the national
government. ADV

.AUT0ETS Want CONGRESS
TO PASS THE ADAMSOn Bill
Measure Would Not Require Taking
Out of An Additional License When
Machine Is Operated in An An
other State

Congress now will be asked by mil
lion and half of motor ear users to
pass the Adamson measure The
American Automobile Association, has
taken the matter in hand. and Presi-
dent John A. Wilson will confer in
Washington with Representative Will
liam c. Adamson, of Georgia, chairman
of the Committee on Interstate and
Foreign Commerce, and the author of a
commonsense measure coueisely set
forth in the following extract:
No person who shall have qualified
by complying with the laws and regula.
tions of the state. territory or district
of his residence to use and operate such
vehicle or vehicles shall be required in
any other state or territory or district
into which he may go for business or
pleasure TO make any additional reg.
istration or take out any additional
license in order to use and operate
any such machine"
For some time the Adamson measure
has rested in committee awaiting a de.
cision by the United States Supreme
Court on what has been known as the
Maryland Case" wherein resident
of the District of Columbia contended
that he had the same right as any
other vehicle owner to the use of Mary
land roads as long as he had provided
himself with an Identification number
from his home district, and thus made
it possible to apprehend him in case he
violated any of the highway laws of
the commonwealth.
But in the decision rendered by the
highest court in the land, written by
Justice McReynolds and eoneurred in
by all the justices, it is held that in

Motorcycle Economy Record

An interesting record was kept by
G. X. Vliet, of New York City, of the
cost of operating his motorcycle dur
ing the past season. During the sea
son Vliet travelled 1899 miles His
total gasoline consumption was 66.5
gallon, costing $10.94. He used 1926
gallons of oil at cost of $40 making
total cost for fuel of $13.34. His
repair bill for the year amounted to
$2.25. This makes Vliet S total expense
for the 3,399 miles, $15.59. or at an
average cost of less than one-hslf a
cent per mile.

The automobile industry has made re-
