WATCH STORAGE BATTERY
IN EXCESSIVE NIGHT DRIVING

During hot weather great many
motorists do considerable driving IN
the evening In fact, in the cases d
many automobiles used for pGeasu1e
purposes only, most Of the driving at
this time of year is done after dark.
How an excess of night driving af-
.fects the storage battery is explain 4
by Mr.. Whit!ock of the local Presto-C-
Lite Battery Service Station
"A great deal has been said about
keeping the storage battery always
full charged" says Mr.. Whitlock. but
the point is so important that it can
not be too strongly emphasizes.
"One of the conditions that, if coli
tinued, will slowly discharge bat
terry. if it is not watched, is excessive
night driving. This is because the
lights, together with the starter, con-
sumo more current than is returned
to the battery by the generator.
For instance we will take the mo-
torist who uses his automobile during
the day only to drive down to his Of
fee and back. He makes little mile
age and consequently his generator
charges his battery but very little.
After dinner he starts out on long
evening drive. If he drives out a
distance he uses his headlights fully
turned on and a spotlight. Before ne
gets back he will have driven four
or five times as far as he drove dur
ing the day.
Call during the drive he uses some
of the reserve power of the battery
for the reason that the lights and
starter consume current faster than
the generator charges the battery
(which means that the storage ba,.
probably is not as fully charged vnen
he returns as when he started. II
the automobile is driven very much
the next day, the discr epancy is made
up but if not the battery's energy ls
reduced.
Repeated drains of this sort will
cause the battery to finally becoms
discharged if it is not watched and
total discharges should be avoided
Tests should be made regularly, about
every ten days, with hydrometer and
if the gravity test gets as low as 1925
the battery should receive freshen-
ing charge at once"
''This care is very essential to the
efficiency and life of any storage bat
terry. Running on battery that has
been allowed to near discharge may
be lFkened to running on very soft
tire Either practice results in un-
necessary expense.
Motorists who are not inclined to
make these necessary tests may call
as often as they desire for our test
ing sercive az East Main St. which
will permit them to keen their bat
teries under evrert supervision and
avoid battery his

Russia, in Despair, Begs Peace;

Two Peace Proposals
Submitted to House

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-Two pro-
posals for peace conferences were sub
mitted to the House to-day, one by
Representative Meyer Londen, Of New
York, the Socialist member, and the
other by Representative Stephens, Of
Mississippi.
The London resolution requests the
President of the United States TO call
a conference of representatives of the
legislative bodies of the Allied nations
to reach a common understanding Of
the basic principles upon which last
ing peace may be established. He pro-
poses that the conference shall be held
in Washington, and would appropriate
S25O,OOO for the expenses Of the con-
ference.
The Stephens resolution, on the other
hand, authorizes the President TO sug-
gest a world congress for the purpose
of considering terms of peace, and pro-
poses that the congress be held in a
neutral capital. The President is
authorized to appoint five delegates to
represent the United States.
with the exception Of FL Paso, more
lies have been sent out of Zurich than
any other place | know Of" was the
comment Of Acting Secretary Of State
Polk to-day on the report that the AL
lies were negotiating or expected to
negotiate with Austria for a separate
peace.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-08-05

Chancellor has said they woulF be
satisfied with German soil. They talked
glibly of peace, but stammered when
they came TO the word restoration
Before we enter a peace conference
they must learn TO utter that word to
begin with. Our gallant fellows are
gradually going to cure the Kaiser OF
his stutter. Restoration is the first
letter; then We will talk.
War is a ghastly business, but it is
not as grim as a bad peace. There is
an end to a horrible war, but bad
peace will go on and on, staggering
from one war TO another. The Prus-
sian war lords have not yet abandoned
their ambitions. They are only dis
cussing the postponement Of the real
ization of their ambitions.
THE next time the Prussian war
lords meant to make sure. There must
be no next time. Let US have done
with il. Do not let US repeat this
horror. Let US make victory such that
national liberty, whether for small or
great nations, can never be challenged
The small nation must be as we'll pro-
tected and guarded as the big nation"
Russia's Collapse a Catastrophe
"On all the roads ever confronted
there are ups and downs, and no doubt
the Russian collapse is rather a deep
glen, and | am not sure that we have
reached its darkest level. But across
the valley ! can see the ascent.
eve of this country cannot allow
sectional organizations to make war or
make peace. The nation as a whole has
made war sacrifices, pretty evenly di-
vided among all classes, and the nation
as a whole must make peace.
"The Germans claim TO be satisfied
with the last battle. All can say is
that Field Marshal Hsig has secured
all his objectives. We had enough
guns to smash lines upon which for
three years the Germans had expended
willing and forced labor, and if the
Germans are pleased with the battle.
then we will let it continue thus, to our
mutual satisfaction.
THE course the advance is taking is
the British method of saving life, and
it is the duty of the nation to stand
behind the army, patient, strong and
united. In this way we will win. The
nation that turns back or falters be-
fore it reaches its purpose can never
become a great people.
"There is no knowing how near the
top we may be. Russia still is on the
ropes, and will in due time come up
again, climbing strong in her purpose,
and together we will reach the summit
of our hopes"
The Marquis Of Crewe said
"We are not depressed by the past,
present or future. after the victories
in France and Mesopotamia, and we
are cheered by the entrance Of the
United States into the war. Our war
aims remain the same-reparation and
security"
Baron Sonnino, who followed, said
that Italy and Great Britain had
jointed in a brotherly covenant 10 pur-
sue the war until just and honorable
peace was secured
