MOTORISTS FACE
PROBLEM OF GAS
Automobile and Petroleum Men
Must Get Together in Close
Harmonious Cooperation.
INCREASE IN MOTOR CARS
Said to Be Possible to Construct In
ternaI Combustion Engines Which
VIII Consume Much Less Fuel
of Inferior Kind.

"The perennial fuel problem will new
er be solved until the automobile indus
try and the petroleum industry get to-
gether In close and harmonious COOP
Grafton" says Mark L. Requa, general
director of the oil division of the Unit
ed States fuel administration, in an
Interview, which appears in Motor, the
national magazine Of motoring.
sThe motor fuel problem is not only
a possibility of the future" contin-
Uas Mr.. Requa, ''but even an actuality
OF the present, as viii be understood
by anyone who takes the trouble to
make even the most cursory examina-
tion Of the situation In 1912 our pro-
duction of petroleum was 222, 935, 044
barrels of AZ gallons. In 1916 the out
put of this basic producer OF motor
fuel was 300,767, 158 barrels, an In
crease in four years Of less than 80
per cent. On the other hand, in 1912
there We're about 100000 motor We
hicles in the country, while in 1916 the
motor population Of the United States
had risen to 3,541, 73S. This represents
an increase of over 300 per cent in four
years With one side of an equation
growing less than 30 per cent and the
other side increasing more than 300
per cent, the ultimate situation is not
hard to foreshadow.
Engine Uses Less Oil.
81 am not an automobile engineer,
so cannot speak from personal knowI-
edge, but have been informed that it
is possible to design internal combus-
tion engines which will consume much
less fuel per mile than is now being
consumed, and of much inferior quail
ity. If this is a fact and the automo-
bile industry faces the situation In CO.
operation with the oil men to effect
this saving, while these latter are de-
voting their best effort to increasing
production, it would seem that we
might cut enough off each end of our
problem to solve it.
"We seem to be only at the begin
ming Of the gasoline era few years
ago gasoline was wasted by-product
today it is the most important product
| of petroleum, amounting to almost 80
per cent of the total value of petroleum
products. With the record of the past
as guide, it would seem that tine two
great industries so interdependent up
on each other should cooperate in
bringing about the most efficient con
sumption of gasoline and the most in
telligent understanding of each others
problems"

Wrought iron is not commonly pro-
duced direct from the ore, but Cali
fornia metallurgist, using petroleum
as fuel, claims to avoid the usual trou-
bIes and to obtain pure iron at a much
reduced cost. The ore. after grinding
to pass through a sixteen mesh sieve,
is mixed with some heavy oil, such as
asphaltum. The mixture Is made into
cylinders, each of size to yield about
$50 pounds Of reduced iron, and these
cylinders are placed in the furnace
and gradually heated to the welding
point of the iron, then taken out and
compressed into blooms. A little sill
cate rock is added to give Stag enough
to hold the semifluid mass together
To avoid reoxidation-the great diff
Guilty in previous processes reduc-
ing atmosphere is maintained in the
furnace, and the bloom is compressed
before entirely removing from the fur
mace. The time required for heating
through and reducing is given as four
or five hours.

HANDLE BATTERY WITH CARE
Motorist Should Economic on Cur
rent and Keep Engine Tuned
to Start on Second Turn.

The man who has trouble keeping
his battery charged will find that diff
fieulty largely can be overcome by
careful handling. In other words, he
should economic on current He
should keep his engine tuned up so
that it starts on the second or third
turn. Thus he can minimize the
amount of current used in starting,
and. remember, this is very large. The
current required is 200 to GOO times
as much as required by an ordinary
16-candle power house light.
He should also be economical with
his lights. He should use his head
lights only when absolutely necessary.
He should determine the car speed
at which his cutout relay makes CON
nection with the battery and operate
the car as much as possible above this
speed.
If he drives much in a congested
city district and stops his engine many
times he will find that his battery can
be kept more nearly charged by chang
ing gears in traffic whenever neces-
sary instead OF trying to do it all on
high gear, the reason being that by
changing gears he boosts his engine
speed so that his battery is charged,
while if he tried to pull slowly on
high he gets down to speed at which
charging stops due to the opening Of
the cut out.

HELP WAATEn
HOW SAILORS LAY GHOSTS"
Mstter-of-Fact spooks That
Annoy Them.

The first lieutenant had just been
relieved, writes 81. s. T." in the Lon
don Mail, and was vending his way
from the destroyer's bridge to his
cabin. It was fairly calm, but very
dark, and there was little to be seen
but line of waves on each side and
the dim form Of second destroyer
in station astern. Even for this mo.
/" had no eyes, for he had had a
weary middle watch and bed was his
only interest. But he did notice a
weird figure, apparently human,
crawling about near the .'bandstand''
Of the after gun.
He went to investigate and found
the surgeon probationer, clad in
chamois leather overall suit, in which
he had been sleeping on the ward
room couch beIow-for every one
must sleep more or less clad, ready to
turn out at moments notice He
was feeling about in the dark, APP
parently in search of something.
What on. earth are you doing,
DocT' he asked, and got the brief an
swer, Laying ghost" The first
lieutenant grunted and disappeared
below, leaving the doctor to insert a
paper wedge between a loose rafting
shell and the side Of the stand in
which it was placed.
A ghost, In naval language, is a
noise which cannot be accounted for.
In destroyer one becomes a con-
noisseur in noises.
The steering gear clanks heavily at
intervals and the rhythmic beat Of the
engines is always there, changing only
when the speed is altered. In heavy
weather the washing and beating of
the water makes a hundred noises.
But ghosts are extra noises and
should be avoidahle. Some misplaced
or ill-fitting article or a loose screw
may cause the noise, and with the
ships vibration it will knock or rattle
with regular persistency that will
drive the most placid mind nearly to
frenzy, and sleep will rarely be the
victims portion until he has left his
warm bunk and found the cause Of
the trouble and the ghost is laid.

Generous ROYAL eambler.

One Of the most romantic gambling
stories is told by MFR. Thiselton-Dyer
Of plainly dressed stranger who once
took his seat at faro table, and after
an extraordinary run of luck succeed
ed in breaking the bank. Heavens 7"
exclaimed an old, infirm Austrian Off
Ger who sat next to the stranger. 1.-THE
twentieth part of your gains would
make me the happiest man In the
worldr
SYou shall have 1t, then" answered
the stranger as he left the room. A
servant speedily returned and pre-
sented the officer with the twentieth
part of the bank, adding: "My mas
ter, sir, requires no answer" The
successful stranger was soon discov-
cred to be no other than the king Of
Prussia in disguise.

DELICATE CAR DOOR POCKETS
Wooden Strips May Be Securely Fast
ened by Using Blue, Round
headed Screws.

Many cars are afflicted with deli
cate" door pockets. those which are
made of inferior material or are i'm
properly fastened. These are apt to
tear loose at the corners since they are
merely tackled on wooden strips at
tached to the door. When this hap
pens they may be securely fastened
by using round-headed screws, which
should have blued heads when the ma
terial is black. These same screws
can be used to advantage in fastening
the linoleum flooring to the boards,
especially at the corners.

Grown Wise.

Chief of Police Butler of Los An
geles was questioning a woman who,
through mistake, had been brought in
on vagrancy charge. 1t turned out
that she was quite the contrary, being
a working woman whose husband was
In France. They grew quite chatty
and Butler remarked:
You seem to be doing quite well as
a business woman"
'You bet l am" she retorted. "And
right now I'm just waiting for that
husband of mine to come home and
spring the old gag about my not being
able to get along without him.
