No GASOLINE FOR

OFFICIAL, OF STANDARD OIL GU
MAKES ALLEGED PATRI-
OTTO APPEAL.
Asta Restriction Of Fuo1 for war and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Man GIVES
HIS views.

As body. the motorists OF America
stand with 4. G. Bedford. president VI
the Standard Oil Company. when ne
makes his appeal on patriotlc oasis
for conservation Of the national supply
of gasoline. But there is differences
Of opinion as to the best way 10 IN
crease the available supply Tor war
purposes Mr.. Bedford advocates re-
striction Of touring In order that saso-
line be used for strictly necessary pul-
poses, FOR his policy would necessarily
work what many people consider an I'M
necessary hardship on millions VINO gel
their recreation from motoring.
The opinion Of s. E. Alderman. safes
manager Of the Franklin AUTOMOBILE
company. Is that the conservation OF
gasoline Is not go much matter OF
self denial on the part OF automoolle
owners as it is problem for automoolle
manufacturers to solve. The TACT 1hae
there are any number on the market
today whose consumption OF easolIne
varies widely. points to the influence
which design exerts on this problem.
1t does not seem that motorists need
be called upon right now to restrict
mileage when there is plenty OF EVIL
dence in the automobile industry that
gasoline economy Is an element that de-
ponds on the type OF car itself.
The real solution Of the problem -
undoubtedly more efficient use OF rub
Der and gasoline. Mr.. Alderman feels
That means that the patriotic task OF
the automobile builder Is to make
rallon Of gasoline and a set OF tires TO
carry the passenger load farther than
ever before. II believe that FRANKLIN
owners, by virtue Of the Franklin car
are conserving in q most constructive
nov and are unconSciouSly bringing
70 tight those factors. like lightweight,
minimized friction. efficient engines,
etc, on which economy eventually de-
pends." Mr.. Alderman added. Amy car
that provides for maintaining the max
imum amount Of service at minimum
consumption Of automobile supplies IS
in line with the economy Of good man
asement. as contracted with the econ
crny Of doing without"

CLEANING CYLINDERS

When the cylinder head Of motor is
detached for the purpose Of removing
the carbon deposit. it will be noticed
that during the process OF scraping the
piston. etc. the tapped holes on the top
OF the cylinder casting soon get full or
oily carbon. water. etc. causing trouble
to remove when it IL decided to insert
the holding down set screws. writes r.
o. ALLEN. in the current issue OF Amer

used short screws without heads on, but
NTH a screw driver slot cut in them. and
screw them in flush with the top Of the

can be removed. when holes will be

Many persons who know Ralph De
Palma as one Of the most daring rae
ing drivers of the American sprctlways
are not aware that he made his first bid
for newspaper publicity as a bicycle
rider. as an amateur in 1898 After
four successful seasons h" turned pro-
fessionaI and won IA notable victory in
4 l2-hour race at Rochester. y. Y. y
year later he cast aside the lcg-pnwcrcd
vehicle for its new motnr-propclled
brother. and MS n motorcycle racer nc
gained considerable success on eastern

After four years with the two
wheeler he became inoculated with the
automobile racing fever and since 1907

victory WAS the winning of the great
500-milr race at indianapolis in 1915.
