WILL IMPROVE WINTER DRIVING
Cadillac Devices Help Engine Reach
Proper TcmpCrnturC QuicklY

Cadillac engineers have provided
more than a usual number of ways to
| increase engine efficiency in cold
weather. Having In mind that an in
creasng proportion Of motor cars are
used the year round, they have over
come by simple and snsble means,
most of the cold weather detriments
To promote easy starting of cold
motor, they have devised an enriching
| device for the gas mixture passing
| thru the carburetor. This Is operated
by a small lever located on the steer
| ing column. The intake manifold has
| a water jacket OF unusual length,
insuring proper yaporization of the
fuel almost Immediately after start
| ing
The temperature OF the water is thus
quickly raised because of the thermo-
static controls which the Cadillac in
| corporates in the water circulation
| line In starting, with the water in
the engine and radiator cold, the
| thermostat valves are closed. and the
supply from the radiator is cut off.
The amount Of water around the in
take manifold and the cylinders be-
ing relatively very small. it is quickly
brought to proper temperature. AS II
warns, the heat causes the thermo-
| stat valves to open gradually, permit
ting circulations of the water from
/ the radiator. Thus there Is no danger
| of overheating.
| A condensing device. which Is COW
cred by Cadillav patents, renders II
possible to use the inexpensive alco-
hol solution as a freezing cooling
medium. A small condensing tank. at
tached to the car frame. is connected
| by tube to the overflow pipe run
ming from the upper tank of the rad
iator. Whatever vapor of water and
alcohol is driven out OF the radiator
by heat passes to the condenser and
is restored to liquid form.
| when the liquid in the radiator
cools. the vacuum produced by its CON
traction causes the surplus liquid In
the condenser to return to the rad
iator. Thus the amount of alcohol lost
by evaporation is very light

there had been some lively talk about
how Washington hotel keepers rob

"but would like to see one president in

Senator Borah, Republican, observed
that people who come to inaugurations
