|AUToIsT MUST WATCH LEAKS
It Will Pay Car Owner to Make Thor
ough Examination at Least Ey-
cry Three Months.

There are so many places about the
motor where leaks are likely to de
velop that it will pay the car owner to
go over the mechanism once In three
months with this in mind. Frequent
offenders are the spark plugs and
printing cups. Pour little oil around
the lower parts Of these while the en-
CINE is running. If there is leak
bubbles in the oil will betray it. An
other vulnerable place for leakage Is
the valve system. See whether thu
valve stems and push rods are Gov.
cred with oil; If they are the stems or
guides are probably worn, or the push
rods or their guides may be to blame.
The cylinder head is liable to develop
leakage If the gasket is not in good
condition or the head spring out Of
shape. Leakage at the inlet manifold
connection to the carburetor may cause
poor motor operation by thinning the
mixture. Sometimes the leakage here
is so great that it cannot be overcome
by reducing the amount Of air going
through the carburetor itself.

uie--Leaders of Big Brotherhoods
Not Completely Satisfied With
Arrangement.

Wage advances TO 1885, 800 RAILROAD
employees, ranging from / per cent to
the highest up to 43 per cent to the
lowest paid workers and aggregating
$500 600, 900, were made public in an
exhaustive report by the railroad wage
commission to Director General Nc
Atl0o.
In general, the director general adj
vocates higher pay for most classes of
workmen to enable them to meet in
creased living costs. but he has been
REPRESENTED as favoring proportionate-
sly larger increases for some classes
than for others now making the same
pay. He also is strongly opposed to
granting wage increases which might
disarrange the general scheme of pay
existing throughout other industries.
The leaders of the four principal
railway brotherhoods found on examin-
ing the report that they had been rec
commended for less than half the In
creases they had asked of the railroad

troll started and which they repeated
before the commission. Their de-
mands had been for an average of
somewhat less than 40 per cent, and
increases for them averaged less than
20 per cent.
Some union leaders appealed to Di-
rector General McAdoo to amend the
proposed scale to give them higher pay.
Others, however, virtually agreed to
accept the report.
The wage advances, which range all
the way from 81 to $34 month, are
Increases above the amount of pay
each employee was receiving on De-
cember 81, 1915. Employees who have
received advances since that date will
benefit now to the extent of the differ
ence between their present wage and
that fixed by the wage commission.
The net cost of the additional pay
to the railroads is estimated at $780,
100000 This is exclusive of the esti-
mated deficit of $800,000,000 in govern
ment operation of the railroads this
year, as a result of which Director
General McAdoo contemplates advanc-
ing passenger rates at least 21S per
cent and freight rates possibly as much
rs Is per cent.
neeph s- commission favors a shorter
average workday, presumably eight
hours, but decided that in the wal
emergency the nation could not afford
to put into effect reform that would
slow down the war machinery and dis
eliminate against other classes OF
workers being called upon for great
sacrifices.

GENERAL LABOR NOTES

More than 100000 persons are af-
fected in the wage increases granted
day workers in plants of the iron and
steel industry, according to the Iron
Trade Review. Wage increases total
ing 1913 per cent since the beginning of
the war in 1914 have been made, bring
ing the wages of day workers up to 3s
cents an hour. None is willing to adj

recent Is per cent increase granted
by the United States Steel corporation
is expected to be followed by an In

Several hundred railroad men, dock
workers and a number of miners were
made idle at Escanaba, Mich, as a re.
suit of the disagreement between Off

ly no iron ore loaded at the docks the
situation is considered serious.

LOOSE RIM CAUSES TROUBLE
Generally Makes Its Presence Known
by Squeaking Sound When Out
of Alignment.

It is generally understood nowadays
that wheels which are out of align,
ment cause undue tire wear. Few
owners, however, realize that rims
which are loose or otherwise improp-
erly mounted will have the same eff.
feet Of causing excessively rapid tread.
wear. A loose rim generally makes its
presence known by a clinking or
squeaking sound. This is not always
so, for occasionally a small stone or
some sand may get in between the
rim and felloe so as to prevent noise,
The rim appears to be tight, but in
reality is running out of alignment
and wearing out the tire.

If your headlights are not in proper

some light up the road too far ahead.
Point your car directly at white wall

adjust the other lamp to light

Heated Manifold Aids Motor.

An inspection of automobiles, how
ever, is exceedingly encouraging. A
solution of the problem apparently has
been found in devices used on several
makes of cars, among which is an ex-
haust-heated manifold consisting of
three separate but connecting jackets
that furnish three different degrees of
heat at three different points.
The first jacket incloses the branch
of the manifold, heating the gasoline
at the point of immediate distribution
to the cylinders and taking care Of any
condensation. The second is around
the throttle chamber, where it prevents
condensation around the throttle valve
at low throttles. The third is located
at the low speed throat Of the car
buretor, insuring Importation at low
speeds.
