for during any month in the year
1918, but it is intended that subscrip-
tons will be signed for them on
June 28th.
The price Of each War Savings
Stamp depends upon the month dur
ing which it is bought. During June
each stamp will cost SALT. In July
each stamp will cost $4.18, and so on
one cent more each month during
1913. On January l, 1923, the Gov
eminent of the United States will re-
deem all War Savings Stamps at $500
each, no matter during which month
in 1913 they were bought. They cost
less during the early months in 1918
than during the later months because
the person who buys earlier has loan
ed his money to the Government for
longer time than if he should buy
later.

following table:

BOLSHEVIKI CHIEF
THINKS RUSSIA ONLY
DEMOCRATIC NATION
II Would Be impossible To
Meet His Demand For
General Conference
BY J. w. T. Mason.

UE1llcn IOE tuG OulIeu IeSS.
New York, Feb. 2.-Leon Trotsky IS
remarkable statement to the United
Press on Russia IS foreign relations show
that the Bolsheviki government believes
it is Intentionally at bay, struggling for
| its own ideals of extreme democracy
against a world of enemies.
To help Russia at this time, it is pri.
marily necessary to know the Russian
government IS point of view. Trotsky
has now supplied it. He is wrong about
America g reasons for being in the war;
but America has been wrong about the
character of the Bolsheviki leaders. Am
erica saw the mistake first; the Bolshe-
wiki have not yet realized theirs.
Trotsky' s vehement denunciation of
the western democracies reveals the ner-
vous tremors and snarling offensive of
wounded animal fighting for its life
against the pack. 1rotsky shows that
Russia thinks it has been stabbed by its
democratic allies, for their own benefit.
The news cannot have penetrated Russia
that the Bolsheviki are winning Ameri
can opinion to their side by the highest
test of all-the test of results.
Trotsky' s plea that the allies join the
peace negotiations at Brest-Litovsk, as
proof of their sincerity, cannot be ac-
cepted. The western nations see more
clearly than do the Bolsheviki that the
German militarists would become domin-
ant if their demand for a secret confer
ence were granted. Trotsky's present
power over the people of the central en-
pires is due very largely to the absence
of allied statesmen from Brest-Litovsk.
The isolation of the Bolsheviki has per-
mitted the Teutonic masses to believe
there is no trick for any nations, con
cealed in Trotsky's new kind of demo-
|cracy.
1t is practically certain that if Trot-
sky measured his worus more carefully
than he has done in his statement to the
United Press there would be internal
disturbances at this time in Austria.
Hungary and Germany. Trotsky IS open
diplomacy must be understood anew. 1t
would be a catastrophe if the old west
ern spirit OF democracy arising in the
east were to become permanently antag-
onistic. There is immediate work here
for western craftsmanship.

POrtIanGs S Ninth Annual
Automobile Show

Portland, Ore, Feb. g. One of the
big winter show events of the whole
Pacific Northwest will be the ninth
annual Portland Automobile Truck and
Tractor Show, to be held in Portland
from February the 9TH to 18th, in
elusive.
More interest than ever is being TAX
en- in the automobile show this year.
This is due not only to improvements
in the automobile that have greatly in
creased its efficiency, but also to the
war, which has brought out how thor
oughly the automobile and prosperity
go together and to what a vast extent
the automobile is adding to the Ma
tion's business and industrial eff
fieiency.
This applies not only to the passen-
ger automobile, which is very definite
ly filling a war need, but to the motor
truck and the farm tractor as well.
Realizing the Importance of the truck
and the tractor today, the committee
in charge of the coming show has given
them special place Of honor at the
show.
The farmer or other person inter
ested in the motor truck or the farm
tractor will have a fine opportunity at
the automobile show to see the various
makes of trucks and tractors and to
determine which one is best fitted to
his particular needs.
One of the most attractive features
about the modern motor truck and farm
tractor are their economy and their
durability. The days Of experimental
tion in these lines have passed One
motor truck is cheaper to operate and
viii do more work, and do it better,
than six horses-and in emergency it
can work day and night without firing.
The use of farm tractors is being en-
eouraged by the government to speed
up food production.
All the very latest models of trucks
tractors and passenger automobiles will
be shown. Practical utility will be the
keynote of the show. All the automo-
bile manufacturers this year are en-
phasizing in their new models improve
ments calculated to give greater gaso-
line mileage efficiency, and other bet
terments.
Special reduced railroad rates will
be in effect from points in Oregon
and the Northwest to show visitors
during the Automobile Show, An un-
usually large attendance from outside
points is expected.

Answer: We doubt 1t somewhat.
Mounting the carburetor directly on
the cylinders probably Is an efficient
practice when all the intake passages
are water jacketed, but no doubt It
is adopted partly to secure clean
ness" of appearance Even after
you did away with the inroke pipe
you would still have the artacketed
manifold; you would have to install
a pressure or vacuum fuel feed sys-
tenn to replace your present one and
to make a fiange connection at the
center OF your manifold to take tho
carburetor. If you propose the
change from the standpoint of the
experimenter, 1t would be all right
to carry 1t out, but as an economic
proposition we aro very incredulous
as to the advisability Of making ex-
tensive changes upon old cars. Put
ting an exhaust Jacket around the
intake pipe would, we think. give
you better results for less expendi-
ture.
