CITY NEEDS REPRESENTATION


 Citizens do not let Valdez fall be- hind. Indifference is the first link in the chain of failure. The coming pri- maries are important. Every citizen entitled to vote, which includes both men and women, should cast their ballot at the coming primary election tomorrow. The needs of our town and surrounding community should be kept in the forefront in the minds of the next legislature, as will be the needs and wants of other towns thru their local representatives.
 Should Valdez fail in securing rep resentation on either the Republican or Democratic ticket other towns which secure such representation stand a better chance of winning in the finals or November general cleo tion. Rapidly changing conditions following the close of the war towards business, governmental affairs and economics will necessitate a watchful policy on the part of each community 70 seize opportunities for it's growth, development and prestige. Valdez has many latent resources lying latent for development. All citizens should vote at the coming primaries and endorse their local candidates.

Is known that 34x4 tire makes about
$50 revolutions to the mile. 1t Is easy to
estimate how many times In a debated

to realize the possibilities Of damage.
Many experiments and tests have
been made to find a suitable substitute

Steel wires might be used but In that

COLE BUILT FOR WAR TIMES.
Engineers Had Very Definite Plan
in Mind.

Four definite things were aimed at In
the development of the new Cole aero
etshts, the officials of the company as
sert. These are striking design. mod
crate price. small operating cost and un-
surpassed mechanical perfection.
At the opening of the present year
these men knew that we were facing
entirely new conditions. These condi-
tons meant decided changes In the kind
of motor cars people would buy and in
the way they would be handled.
In sizing up the situation the design
ers Of the Cole aero eights took into
consideration the fact that men who had
formerly owned higher priced cars would
want to purchase a stock car with the
beauty OF design they had been accus-
toned to expect in higher priced equi-
pages, with all the refinementS and ac-
cesSories which add to the comfort and
utility of motoring.
Then too, they realized that many
men and women who had formerly en-
ployed their own drivers would do their
own driving, so that their chaufeurs
might be released for more important
war work. This occasioned the en-
gneers to- embody in the aero eisht
models ap easy, powerful and certain
action which would eliminate all diff
culties in driving and make them a con
slant satisfaction and pleasure 10 the
driver.

fabrication is the life of an automo-
bile. and as spare parts are harder to get
all the time Il is up to the motor car
owner to keep or see that his car is well
oiled" says Harry S. Houpt president
Of the Hudson Motor Car Company of
New York. Your automobile is the
most efficient means of transportation at
your disposal. Without 1t you lose time,
YOU lose money. The longer you keep 1t
in service the better IL runs during SER
vice, the more efficient it Is as trans
portation medium.
did you ever stop to consider that
the life of the cars mechanism Is de-
pendent on the correctness of the lubri-
cation? The more spare parts you need
the more attention your car needs from
outside mechanics. the more you are
using up efficient labor which might be
diverted to some other work--building
more means of transportation. And at
the same time the lack of lubricatinS
attention compelling lay up means
temporary loss of efficient transporta-
ton to you.
Factories are not making spare parts
as they did II the demand for them
gets too heavy you may find 1t very diff
ficult indeed to get those parts that you
need in a hurry. Every extra mile or
bearing service. every extra mile of gear

saving in time and labor, and you are

porous spots One of the best ways to
apply tale Is to use a salt bag filled
with tale and dust it In. One busting
OF tale applied in this manner will as
sure the tire of sufficient tale to elmi-
mate the possibility of any vulcaniza-
ton.
Photograph No. shows another Sc
we're injury that entirely eliminates a
tire from service, invariably after very
short time. 1t is caused by riding on
u fiat tire. None of US care very much
to get out in a muddy road or the sun
and investigate after a puncture, but
are inclined to pull for either a dry or
shady spot, where 1t will be possible to
work with some degree OF comfort. 1t
Is believed that all that has happened
is puncture, yet when the tube is
taken out we find marks and creases in
1t and it is considerably chewed up. The
reason for that chewing is because the
tube itself has been expanded consider
ably, and because of the puncture all the
air has gone out with rush. The
weight of the car on the casing creased
the side walls, and every small projec-
ton on the inside of the casing has
penetrated the tube. often creasing 1t
with such force as to cause what APP
pears to be alcut.
You might ask what this has to do
with the tire. and the reply would be
that the tire itself has just as much
strength as the tube. The tube strength
