L.UbRICATION IS
VERY IMPORTANT
Hard to Induce Mechanics and
Drivers to Keep Chassis Oiled
as Per Schedule.
MAKE REGULAR INSPECTION
Several Hours May Be Required to
Give Neglected Truck Proper Al
tention and Cover All of Most
Vital Portions.

A good way to add years to the serv-
Zee life of a motortruck and to re-
luce expensive layups is to make sure
hat it never lacks fabrication. There
are between fifty sassd ! hundred points
On a motortruck which require indi-
sidual fabrication attention. Unfortu-
aateiy it is not possible to arrange
The chassis so that all of these are
20 be fabricated at the same time
slnce the parts represented by this
array nearly all work at different
ypeeds and under wide variations of
Dad. Every manufacturer conscien-
ti0usly supplies purchasers with charts
showing just where, with what and
when to attend to each fabrication
Job. Yet 1t seems impossible. for most
organizations to get their mechanics
and drivers to keep the chassis oiled
as per schedule.
Days for Inspection.
The only way this can be done with
certainty is to set aside certain days
sor the inspection of each vehicle by
mechanic whose sole duty Is to seek
sut the thirsty members and apply
the lubricant most to its taste. Armed
with a fabrication diagram, perhaps,
though this would only be necessary

Dill, another of kerosene to clean out
dirty bushings and to free those
which may be gunmed or stuck.

mission lubricant and pail or can

ne will 60 entirely over the truck.
He should pick out certain place
20 start--the starting crank is flogi-
cal place--and proceed about the
truck, cleaning away the caked mud
and dirt and looking at each point
keenly. Parts which are found to be
in need Of lubricant should have the
needed material applied at once and a
note made Of the need. In his fnspec-
ton he will test the quality of oil in
the engine base, gearbox, differential,
etc, as we'll as merely the quantity
present, since it is necessary to clean
out old oil periodically. When q
change Of oil is needed he will flush
put the case with kerosene and fill it
10 the proper level with new, clean
oil.
It may take several hours to give
the proper attention to one badly neg
iected truck. but If once done properly
and conscientiously followed up by
periodical subsequent inspections, an
energetic mechanic should be able to
act as godfather to three or four vehi-
ales a night. Naturally If the fleet is
small, this will not be necessary. Once
in two weeks Is often enough for each
vehicle, the driver being held strictly
responsible tor ali daily fabrication

clutch oiler or grease cup, the spring
bolts, steering joints, steering knuckles
and radius rods.

Federation of Doctors
Criticises Drug Rule
Refuse to Agree With Board of
Health That Addiction Is
Pestilential Disease

The amendment made to the sani-
tary code by the Board of Health, pro-
viding for the inclusion of drug adj
diction among the pestilcntial dis
eases, is criticized by the American
Federation of Physicians.
Speaking on behalf of the FeSera-
ton, DR.. John F. DAWN, said last
night:
"1f this ruling holds good, then the
health officer of the port, who is a
member of the Board of Health. to be
consistent, will have to exclude all
persons who arrive at the port Of
New York who are addicted to the
use of drugs. Everybody will have
to pass through drug addiction
quarantine and the only way to get
around it will be for them to come
by way of Boston or Montreal.
"Physlcians generally haven't ar
rived at the idea that drug addiction
is a pestilential disease. The decision
Will startle the medical world
Whether it will rebound to the credit
of American medicine is another
question:"

Hundreds of Wires
Burned Out by Storm
St.Nicholas Telephone Exchange
Practically Isolated; Three
Persons Injured

Telephone and telegraph linesmen
worked at top speed yesterday to re-
pair the havoc wrought by the cleo
trical storm of Saturday night so that
wire service might be unimpaired to-
day. Most of the damage done by
the storm occurred in Harlem and The
Bronx. Between midnight and 1880
a. m lightning struck many wires.
apartment house lighting fuses were
burned out, telephone wires by the
hundreds were put out of commission
and scores of wooden poles were
burned.
The St. Nicholas telephone exchange
was practically isolated by the burn
ing out of 300 wire connections~and
the flooding of conduits. At least 500
wires in other exchanges were rem
dcrcd temporarily useless The DO
llcc station at Haven Avenue and 177th
Street was without telephone service
until daybreak.
There were few accidents, owing to
the fact that the storm drove in
pedestrians, leaving the dark streets
to motor cars whose lights furnished
the only available illumination.
Mrs. Sarah Shapiro, of 1856 Caldwell
Avenue, and her daughter, Evelyn,
aged twenty-five, were struck by a
taxicab driven by William Dunn, of
5Ol West Twenty eighth Street Mrs.
Shapiro's skull was fractured. Her
daughter sustained a shoulder tract
ure. Both were taken to Lebanon
Hospital.
Milton Robinson, laborcr, of 191
East 133d Street, was struck by
Lenox Avenue surface car.
MINEOLA, L. l., July 27.-Thc worst
storm that has struck Long Island in
the last forty years swept this section
OF Nassau County early this morning
and did considerable damage nouse
ana barn were struck by lightning and
burned, and several trees were do
stroyed.
,Automobile travel was almost impos
slble, the roads being so flooded that
they could not be distinguished from
the fields. The military police and
hre departments of Camp Mills, Hazel
hurst flying fields and other aviation
grounds were called out to be ready for
instant action in case the hangers we're
struck.

tween Saturday night and Monday
morning"
Late in the afternoon it looked as
II the Voorhis home would have to call
on the neighbors for extra vases to
hold the flowers. Former Democratic
State Controller William Sohmer, who
is treasurer of Tammany, sent ninety
long-stem American beauties. and Dep
uty Commissioner Of Corrections Dal-
ton, sachem of Tammany, sent huge
bunch OF roses. Mr.. Dalton is an old
timer himself. the oldest district lead :
er in Tammany Hall, and he worked as
Journeyman carpenter with Mr.. Voor-
his: One young friend sent a poem
which he had written. Mr.. Voorhis
read 1T several times
This will last longer than all the
flowers" he said
Charles f. Murphy sent a congratu-
latory telegram from Good Ground.
Smokes Two Cigars Day
Mr.. Voorhis smokes two cigars a dav.
He said he took no more than 6ftv
alcoholic drinks in year, but added:
II don't believe the law ought to de-
termlne what individuals should eat
and drink. | take little milk punch
occasionally for stimulant. However.
whether the laws are good or bad the
cltlzen must obey. That is fundamen-
tall" -
Mr.. Voorhis has watched Manhattan
grow through generations.
u recall when Canal Street was the
centre of shopping" he said. "There
were splendid stores, like Arnold Con-
stables and A. T. Stewards and
others. Business moved to Fourteenth
Street, then to Twenty-third Street
then to Thirtyfourth, then to Fortv
second, and it will soon be Fifty
seventh Street. 1t always stops at the
wido streets"
For the last fifty years Mr.. Voorhis
has not needed a doctor.
Most illnesses are imaginary" he
said. "e
He has a sparkling blue eve, a shock
of white hair and a white moustache.
yet he looks to be thirty years
younger.
"They tell me must be a good actor
to appear so young. but it's all the way
one lives. Don't worry, work regular
ly and use every minute"
Mr.. Voorhis served as a Commission
er of Excise under Mayor Havemeyer.
and later served two years as Police
Commissioners. He returned to his
trade in 1881. but entered politics
again and was Dock Commissioner and
then Police Commissioner under Mayor
Grace, and Police Commissioner again
IN 1892 under Mayor Hewitt. He
served successfully as justice of the
Ponce Court, member Of the Board of
Elections, Superintendent of Public
Buildings for Manhattan and president
of the Board of Elections.

John Il. V00r/1is Celebrates
Goth Birthday Anniversary
Says He Has Lived Long Because He Never Was
Rich and Had to Live Simple Life; Doesn't
Believe in Taking Vacation Every Year

1t might benefit many of the latter
day philosophers of Greenwich Village
to take counsel Of one of it's oldest
inhabitants and public servants, John
R. Voorhis, president of the cty's
of the Society of Tammany, who OBJ
served his ninetieth birthday yesHer-
day.
In an oldfashioned red brick house
at Greenwich and Bethune streets, Mr..
Voorhis has lived for fiftyfour years.
seventy years ago, as an apprentice
stair builder. he helped build the
house. Yesterday he came down the
old stairway with the springing step of
a young man.
81 didn't think when I worked on this
house in 1870 that would be running
down the stairs in 1919" he said.
The elevated was rafting outside
and river boats to the rear were max
ing din Of whistles and signals, but
inside the cool house, where pictures
and furniture were wrapped in white
summer covers, Mr.. Voorhis sat in
bower of roses, tributes from many
friends, and talked of people and Gus
toms and New York.
Because He Is Poor
"1 attribute my long years to plain
living, keeping always busy and pos
sessing but moderate means" Mr..
Voorhis said. 81 have always been
poor and am poor; if I had money I
would have abused my health, perhaps,
and would not be living to-day"
Mr.. Voorhis had already put in what
would have been full day for many a
younger man. He was up at 5:15
o'clock, and after a light breakfast
chopped enough wood to run the
kitchen fire for the week 81 mean
5:15 sun time, not Wilson time" he
said. II don't believe in this daylight
saving. The worst kind of fool is the
kind who fools himself l haven't set
my watch up and 1 don't need to at nv
age.
II find the most relaxation in work."
he continued. "This vacation business
is nonsense. Nowadays every one has
to run off to the shore or to some
mountain for two or three weeks. I
hear these young men talking about
their vacations. in January. If they
would save the money they lose in
vacations there would be less worry
for them when they grow old and be-
gin to wonder if they will live to be a
| hundred.
Thought Weeks Vacation All Right
."When I was a young man we
thought it was all right to take week.
I've got kilograms and flowers from
friends who can't stand the city in the
summer, SO they write from the coun-
try. The Lord set aside one day each
week for rest, and that is when | take
mine. l rarely leave the house be-
