Air Pressure Should
Be Same At All Times

The air pressure should remain the
same winter and summer, says Jack
Allen of the Allen-Knight Co.
"Many car owners labor under
false impression regarding the tire
pressure he adds. Tires should not
be pumped up harder in the winter
months Likewise, pressure should
not be reduced in summer because
decreases cause the tire to bend more
create more friction and naturally to
generate heat. Motorists are inclined
to make Il complicated matter of in,
flation. While too little pressure ia
extremely important and is undoubt-
edly the biggest abuse tires are put to
determining the proper air pressure
for tires is really a simple matter.
"A time gauge is not absolutely
necessary. Just stand in front or rear
of your car and observe that the tires
are full and round. that they do not
sag. Proper initiation is so important
that no chances should be taken. Al
all times the tire should receive the
benefit of the doubt

HERE ARE SOME
MOTOR TRUCK TIPS

Wet Roads and Rubber.-Wet rub
ber cuts much easier than dry rub
ber. For this reason fast travel over
rough road surfaces, particularly
broken stones. will be very destruc-
tive to the tires when they are wet
This is particularly true as regards
solids on a heavy truck.
Don't Spare the Fence.-The truck
drivers with the armies in the fight
ing zone have demonstrated what can
be done with a little fence wire and
some ingenuity. Fence wire under
the emergencies of war, has been
used for towing rope. for wrapping
around the channel of a rim to pro-
tect it while the truck was coming
in on the rim; it has been wound
around the leaves of broken spring
and made to take the place of a bro
ken bolt
Leather Washers.-A leather wash
er placed beneath a metal washer
not only tends to stop rattling but
gives a certain compression that often
saves a bolt from being stripped of
its threads.

And it is well known that what

in turn, increases the amount of iron

anemia and enhancing the oxygen

GENERAL STRIKE CONDEMNED

The "No Beer-No Work" strike
proposed for July l was condemned
by 400 delegates of the New Jersey
State Federation of Labor and State
Building Trades Council at a joint
meeting in New Jersey. The dele
gates, however, adopted resolutions
urging Congress to repeal both war
time and permanent prohibition, and
calling on President Wilson for aid.
"a general strike for beer by labor
ing men on July would make us look
ridiculous" declared Henry F. Hill
ders, secretary of the labor fedora
ton, one Of the speakers. ga general
strike always means a disruption of
organized labor. We must express
our protests by other means"
Among resolutions adopted was one
calling on the American Federation of
! Labor, at it's convention in June, to
protest vigorously against prohibition
while another attacked the Federal
prohibition amendment as "a danger
Gus precedent" This resolution as
serted that while "as law abiding
Americans we must obey the law, nc
matter how obnoxious, we condemn
the methods used and unfair advan-
tage taken in having it ratified while
the nation was at war and contrary,
J in some instances, to the wishes of
the people"
The delegates adopted another reso-
luton asking repeal of the espionage
act as it was no longer necessary.
