UPHOLDs FREE USE
OF GASOLINE HERE.
The Petroleum War Service
Committee Says There
Is No Shortage.

Aftera q meeting yesterday the fol-
lowing statement was authorized by
the Petroleum War Service Commit
tee. OF which A. c. Bedford is chair
man.
1t is important that the American
people understand fully tho factors
governing the supply OF petroleum pro
ducts in this country. The chairman
or the Petroleum Committee Of the
Council of National Defense some
months ago pointed out the Importance
of conservation Of gasoline. The situa-
ton at present may be summarized
as follows:
There is no shortage Of gasoline for
use in this country. As a matter Of
fact as a result Of the light domestic
use incident to the winter weather, tho
stocks Of gasoline are Increasing and
VIII further increase before the heavy
summer demand is encountered.
while there is an increasing demand
abroad for gasoline for use by our own
army and navy. as well as by our
allies the limiting factor there IS ship
ping tonnage All the gasoline is now
being forwarded for which ships are
available Experience and inquiry
make it clear that the petroleum indus
try in America can and viii supply all
the Increased demand for oil products
for the war. provided sufficient tank
steamers can be obtained. 1t is esti-
mated that in 1917 not over IS per
cent of the gasoline produced in this
country was exported. The fact should
he reassuring TO any who doubt TINS
eountrys ability to supply the war re-
quirements Of our own and our allied
governments for this important pro-
duct
The need OF immediate importance
is that there be no relaxation in the
production Of fuel oil This material.
liquid fuel, As it il often called. is used
by the oil burning vessels Of the ma
vie. by practically every Industrial
plant engaged in the manufacture OF
munitions. shipyards. gas plants. and
even by some OF the railroads The con
sumption Of fuel oil is much greater
than the consumption OF any other
or the various products obtained from
crude oil petroleum.

HOW TO CUT DOWN
AUTO REPAIR BILLS

The damage done automobiles as
result or their standing N cold, damp
garages is not generally known ana
the following II reasons why the car
should be kept warm viii be interest
ing to many ear owners:
/ Eliminate frozen radiators-an
unhoated garage means springins the
radiator. cracking tho water jacket
of the engine. freezing the water ana
breaking the pump. Anti-treeze COM
pounds are liable to evaporate. es-
pccially i the engine overhests.
- save the engine-gasoline can
not evaporize when the cylinders and
carburetor are cold, and starting -
diMicult The engine sputters and kicks
haif the cylinders and finally, after
much gasoline and electricity have been
wasted Il starts
6 Reduce carbon deposits in the
czIinders-to start a cold engine there
must be rich mixture OF gasoline
and air tile first I've minutes. This
increases carbon deposits
a. save tho bearings-ol becomes
thick and sluggish in a cold garage.
This results in the bearings scoring
before becoming warm by the friction.
When starting n cold engine the
knocking means more damage to the
hearings
3. save the battery-the storage
battery. being a chemical machine. and
: a. chemicals act vcry slowly when cold.
the battery cannot take full charge.
| The extra load put onto the battery
i'm starting the cold engine soon dis
! charges the battery beyond the danger
point. "Oyercharging' occurs and this
( is responsible for most battery troubles
the chemicals become useless and fall
of the Grids, the battery becomes veal.
and finally must be replaced.
81 Save the car hnish-ln an un-
heated garage. moisture slowly accum-
ulates under the varnish and freezes
which cracks and spoils the varnish.
This docs not happen IN a warm. dry
garage. Tho wormth and dryness pre-
serve the finish and upholstry OF the
machine. Rehnishing a car is expens-
i've.
T. Save the tires-if this garage 4,
not warm and dry. moisture gets into
tho fabric OF the tire through cuts.
This moisture freezes while the car
is not in use and loosens the fabric
and eventually ruins the tires.
5. For easy cleaning OF the car
mud and snow freeze TO the car in a
cold garage. When washing the car
in an unheatcd garage. the water
freezes on. which spoils the finish. The
mud and snow melt Oft the car in a
garage that is heated.
.. For comfort in oilirg. altering
tho batteries, ctc.--It Is a pleasure to
attend your car in warm garage but
not when the fingers arc cold and the
feet almost frozen
10. Prevent colds and sickness
Working around car in an unheated
garage results in colds and grippe
