IN CONNECTICUT NO
SPEED LAWS At ALL
New Statute Makes Reckless
ness Offense Regardless of
Rate Travelled - Circum-
stance Governs.

Speed laws as they used to be no
longer exist in Connecticut. That state
has a new law, in the enforcement of
which it Is put straight up to the
driver to show whether or not he is
reckless. Or rather, the officials do
not rely on traps and stop watches to
keep vehicles within certain rates of
speed, but rather try to keep them in
the habit of sensible speed according to
circumstances.
Connecticut's commissioner of mo-
tor vehicles points out some features
of the law and shows what the state
means in requiring the driver to pro-
coed with caution. In the light OF
common sense, his speed is obviously
governed by traffic If he goes through
town at 80 miles an hour. he is
reckless; If he sails at so miles on
clear road with nothing in sight he
is not reckless. Accidents are prima
! facie evidence of recklessness.
| And it is worthy of note that the
| law is being respected. The police
force of the commissioners depart
ment is vigilant and is covering the
! state for violations. Glaring head.

SOME SOLID TIPS
FOR BETTER CARE
OF MOTOR TRUCKS

Oil Cups-The present-day ten
dency in fabrication is all away
from grease and toward oil. Grease
cups are being replaced by oil cups
on many modern trucks. The oil
cups of today are SO constructed
that they need to be filled only
once a month or so, which removes
the former objection. Truck own
RS who have had lulv.ication trou-
bles will probably Find 1t worth
while to substitute oil cups for the
grease receptacles
Motor Adjustments--Adju
made on the truck engine when it
Is cold are seldom satisfactory when
the power plant has warmed up to
operating temperature, owing to the
expansion of the heated metal. En-
CINE adjustments should be made
when the engine is hot after a run.
Water and Tire Wear-Wet rub
Der cuts much more easily than
when it is dry. Truck owners
should warn their drivers against
excessive speed when the roads are
wet, because of the extra wear on
the tires.
Leather Washers-Leather wash
ers placed beneath the metal wash
err not only lessen noise, but give
an admirable. elastic compression,
which prevents stripped threads, in
case the bolt is a little small for
it's work.
Spasmodic Missine-Intermitte
missing is sometimes caused. by
moisture or grease on the ignition
distributor face. The current runs
across the surface of the water Or
grease instead of following it's prop
err course 1t Is good idea to give
the distributor a cleaning at fire.

men, etc, while the evening sessions
will be designed for motor truck own

OIL MACADAM STRIP
TO PREVENT CRACKING
OF CONCRETE ROADS

An oil macadam strip between two
sections of concrete is the scheme OF
road making being tried out on a coun-
ty highway between Bay Point and
Pittsburgh, California, Concrete roads
laid in one width over clay land have
been known to result in the cracking
and disintegrating of the road in few
seasons and in an effort to overcome
this trouble County Surveyor Arnold is
having the link of the county high
way constructed in a manner tried
in several eastern states and which
has proved successful.
The concrete is laid in two separate
sections, each eight feet wide with a
two-foot strip through the center. In
this strip is placed oil macadam, which
is rolled level to the surface of the
concrete and the entire surface is
faced with topping.

Of them suppose
A carburetor, mechanically correct,
will not get noticeably out of ADJUST
ment, and unless you know exactly
what you are doing, leave 1T alone. a
proper adjustment necessarily means
that the motor must run few MIN
utes before it warns up to its great
est efficiency. An adjustment that
starts right off the reel in the morning
might suit some of these drivers, but
It also means greater expense and more
or less trouble all the rest of the day.
ute often miss is located in the
distributor points, where, after many
miles of travel, the fiber black on the
distributor arm becomes worn to SUCH
an extent that there is no break or gap
in the points. which causes no END or
trouble, but which is easily remedied.
Then again miss might be located
as a result of badly spaced spark plug
points. 1t Is as necessary to have these
correct as any other part of your motor

Samuel A. Miles, manager OF the Ma
tional Automobile shows, has arranged
with John r. Eustis to serve as his as
sistant and take charge OF the confer

FIRST PEEK IN TANK,

Motor truck drivers should be taught
that when the truck stops suddenly
the first place to look for the cause of
trouble is in the fuel tank. On a re-
cent occasion of a sudden apparently
causeless stoppage of a truck, a con-
ference of five passing drivers got no
where, and finally a passing motorist
made the discovery that the fuel tank
was empty. Impress this on your
drivers Look first into the gas tank.

OIL pRIPs; MESS; WASTE.

Oil drips frequently come from the
cap screw being loose on the crank
case, from the bearings, from the
plrngers or tappets above the cam
shaft. In addition to being wasteful,
drips of this kind make a frightfully
messy engine and should be attended

drips from the bearings, the fan picks
