 AND FITTINGS
 ARE IMPROVED
This Seasons Cars Are Bet. ter Equipped and More
 Refined Than Ever.

Cars are better equipped this year than ever before. The list of access sories furnished with the car is not any longer, but the accessories them selves are more refined. So are the auxiliary systems such as lubrica7 ton, ignition, lighting. starting, car sburetion, etc.
 Take the dash instruments. All the speedometers are now mounted flush with the instruments boards. They do not project above the surface. The ammeters now register discharge and charge, giving g. clue to the entire electrical system. There are Nmore pressure gauges for the oiling sys- tenn mounted on the dash, as woul l be expected with the increase in the use of pressure feed.
 Oil Pressure Heavier.
 The increase of pressure feed is to be expected in connection with the ever increasing rotative speed of mo- tors. 1t is becoming more and more necessary to lead the oil positively to the bearing points under great pres sure. Hence pressure feeds are now sending the oil at 25 pounds pressure directly into the bearings.
 In starting and lighting equipment there is greater simplicity than ever. The use of the simpler means of meshing the starter with the crank shaft is one improvement. The screw gear used here is a good example. In generator drives there has been some change. One prominent maker has just mounted the generator in unit with the fan and drives both off the ! same belt This is illustrative of a general trend toward simple and as- cessible electric drives Improved Carburetors. :.
 Carburetors have been improved to take the lower grades of gasoline now in which this situation has been met is in the use of more heat to aid in the vaporization. Whereas formerly it was the custom to preheat some of the air entering the carbureter, many are now preheating aIi the air. This helps to vaporize the heavy grade of gasoline. We are coming closer, year by year to kerosene.
 Great improvements in ignition have been necessary to take care of the multi-cylinders and the high speeds. A few new systems have been introduced. One prominent manufacturer, who has been supply ing large part of the trade, has just introduced a new system that is talk ing quite we'll. This is a closed cir cult device-that is, the circuit is normally closed, being broken every time a spark is desired. A success full system can readily take care of a twelve cylinder motor running at 5000 revolutions minute. This

DipIOmatic obstacles to Peace.

The New Republic: The presidents

between Ine popular and the ofhctal
conceptions Of the war. The great bulk
of the people in England are hghting
to curb the menace OF Germany, 70 Tree
Belgium, to make Europe safer place
to live in. The people OF France are
fghting for these things and to defend
themselves from a hideous invasion.
But alongside these aims there are Of
ficial aspects OF the war OF which the
people have only vague knowledge but
Of which they are ready deeply to dis
approve. They are the secret diplomat
fc intrigues and maneuvers for q shift
ing of the balance of power in the near
east, Africa, and even the Pacific. Per-
sia, Morocco, Mesopotamia, the Congo,
the DardaneIles, China, the backward
territories of the earth. these are the
stakes over which Europe has been
kept in turmoil, these are the prizes for
which the coalitions were formed, Il ts
for these that European diplomacy has
played. It is the question OF how TO
dispose OF these territories which rails
es the real obstacles TO peace. The
Immediate prize is Turkey, with the
Dardanel1es, Serbia, the corridor to the
east as means to military and economic
possession OF Asia Minor, Persia and
Mesopotamia,' ultimately perhaps to
Egypt and India. In that region there
is 3 fierce three-cornered CONFLICT be-
