up little before turning off the

The noise sounds just the same as
when the motor kicks. Any infOr-
nation YOU may give me will be

The usual rule for speedometer
gear and pinion is to double the size
of the tire for the gear and to have
l6 teeth in the piniOn. Thus a 81

But this will not cover your case.
Some speedometer manufacturer rs

Better consult the maker Of your

TIE Germans are bowling like hit
dogs because the Allies have begun to
drop bombs on their cities and towns
in retaliation for this same detestable
work from which French and English
cities have been suffering all through
the war. The German populace Is
fleeing from all towns thus visited.
There is nothing that makes an i'm
preston on Germans but the frightful
methods they use on the Allies, and
what a howl they do put up when their
own medicine is administered TO them
Never before was there an adage so
thoroughly established and justified as
that 70 Must fight the devil with

REACH AGREEMENT
ON OIL QUESTION
WITH MEX|CANS

A tentative agreement whereby there
will be no interruption Of the oil sup
ply from Mexico has been reached be-
tween representatives OF the ell COM
panies and the Mexican government the
Department Of State was advised yester-
day. Immediate ratification of the agree
ment by the Mexican Congress is ex-
pected.
Several days ago the Mexican gov
eminent agreed to postpone from August
to August Is action on the decree
which imposes a practically prohibitive
tax on. the expectation of oil, and at
that time this action was taken as an
indication that President Carranza would
relent and not place such an obstacle In
the war program Of the United States.
However. neither OF these agreements
changes the Mexican, governments posi-
ton in regard TO the ownership Of the
mineral resources OF the country, which,
according to the laws of Mexico. 1t is
said. may be leased but not sold.
In the case of the old interests the ques-
ton OF ownership Of the mineral rights
remains to be definitely settled, but this
VIII require considerable time, and there
is no Gneasiness felt as TO. the ultimate
outcome -D~t- -f-sss, H-'+s-rei q
The temporary concessions which have
been granted are attributed by officials
to the putting into deeds of the words
Of President Wilson in his address to
Mexican newspaper correspondents on
June II. which resulted IN the lifting of
the embargos on all essential supplies
desired by Mexico.

j. S. TO REGULATE
MEAT PRICES IN
RETAIL MARKETS

The Food Administration is devel-
oping plans through which it is hoped
. measure of regulation for the re-
tan prices OF meats may result, it
was learned yesterday.
The agency through which it is
proposed to act is the "fair price
list" now published by committees in
almost every section of the country.
1t is believed meats can be graded
and cuts definitely standardized.
Then, with the price at the packing
plant fixed and known. IL is thought
publication of a fair retail price will
eliminate exorbitant charges through
pressure from The buyer.
Butchers will be asked to abide vol
UNFAIRLY by prices in the list.
The, problem is one of the most per-
plening the administration has
tackled. since there is no Legislative
provision for the control of retail
prices and the quality and methods
of marketing meat vary to such a
great extent
