Article XIX


ceased to be under the sovereignty of the
states which formerly governed them and
which are inhabited by peoples not yet
able to stand by themselves under the
strenuous conditions of the modern world,
there should be applied the principle that
the wellbeing and development of such
peoples form a sacred trust of civilization
and that securities for the performance
of this trust should be embodied in the
constitution of the league.
The best method of giving practical eff
feet to this principle is that the tutelage
of such peoples should be entrusted to
advanced nations who by reason of their
resources, their experience or their
geographical position, can best undertake
this responsibility, and that this tutelage
should be exercised rT rEem as manda-
tory on behalf Of The league.
Certain comm 1Qftles formerly belonging
to the Turkish empire have reached a
stage of development which their exist
ence as independent nations can be pro-
visionally recognized subject to the rem
dering of administrative advice and as
sistance by mandatory power until such
time as they are able to stand alone. The
wishes of these communities must be a
principal consideration in the selection of
the mandatory power.
There are territories such as southwest
Africa and certain of the south Pacific
isles, which, owing to the sparseness of
their population, or their small size, or
their remoteness from the centers of
civilization, or their geographical continu-
ty to the mandatory state and other cir
,cumstances, can be best administered un-
der the laws Of the mandatory state as
integral portions thereof subject to the
safeguards above mentioned, in the inter-
ests Of the Indigenous population

Article XVII.

In the event of disputes between one
state member of the league and an
other state which is not member OF
, the league the high contracting parties
agree that the state or states not mem
bers of the league shall be invited TO
accept the obligations of membership
in the league for the purposes OF such
dispute, upon such conditions as the
executive council may deem just, and
upon acceptance of any such invitation
the above provisions shall be applied
with such notifications as may be
deemed necessary by the league.
In the event of a power so invited re-
fusing to accept the obligations of mem
bership in the league for the purposes OF
the league which in the case of state
member of the league would constitute a
breach of Article XII, the provisions OF
Article XVI shall be applicable as against
the state taking such action.
If both parties to the dispute when so
invited refuse to accept the obligations of
membership in the league for the purpose
of such dispute, the executive council may
take such action and make such recon-
mendations as will prevent hostilities and
will result in the settlement of the, dis

EVERY MACHINE OWNER RPAYSFOR
 WORK IF THIEF

Every automobile owner in this country is helping to pay for machines that have been stolen" says c. H. Reubens, local agent of the Dort Motor Car company.
 They are paying for the cost of thievery in many ways, but principally through the tremendous increase in thief insurance rates that have swept the country from coast to coast. Today it costs anywhere from double to fif- teen times as much to insure a car as 1t did four years ago,
 "The resultant failure to recover the theft of the other fellows car in one case out of three has been responsible for this high increase in the insurance costs.
 Even motor locks do not seem to deter the expert thief The theft of cars from private garages is a grow ing business too. A motor car owner cannot protect his property by lock- ing 1t securely and then applying a lock to the car itself.
 Every possible assistance should be rendered to support the measure of Congressman L. c. Dyer of St. Louis, designed to check this evil. The bill makes it a crime punishable by ten years imprisonment to steal car and take it across the border of the state in which it is stolen.
 Under existing laws the state in which a car is stolen cannot summon, as witnesses, the person to whom a car is sold, if those persons live in another state. The Dyer bill makes provision for this fallacy in our pres ent statutes, and should receive the hearty support of every automobile owner in the United States. "The motorist who thinks he has not felt the hand of the despicable au- tomobiel thief, merely because he has been fortunate enough to escape the ravages of the organized bands that make a practice of stealing cars, is looking at the matter through rose-col- ored glasses"

 To Clean Out Carbon
 The detachable cylinder heads used on Oldsmobiles for the past several years make possible the removal of carbon without the exercise of any spe- cial mechanical knowledge or skill. On the eight-cylinder models, for instance, it is simply necessary to drain the wa ter remove the single bolt which att taches the hose connection to the front corner of the cylinder head, and unscrew the several bolts which hold the head to the cylinder block. Car bon can then be removed by the prop CT method (scraping) without expense or undue trouble.
 The detachable cylinder head con- struction eliminates all excuse for us- | ing chemicals or oxygen processes of | burning the carbon out, both of which present dangers.
 The Proper Use of Kerosene We learn that some mechanics rec ommend filling the crankcase witt kerosene after draining the oil, an6 \ running the motor for minute or two on kerosene instead of fabrication oil We certainly do not recommend this practice because Oldsmobile engines are made with force feed oiling sys- tems (the best known system today and it Is certainly undesirable that the various oil passages, for instance tht drilled crank shaft, be filled with kero. sene which is impossible to get ou and which merely dilutes the fresh lu. bricating oil after the kerosene ha: been drained and the motor refilled It is good practice, however, to wasf out the crankcase with kerosene with out running the engine. But before re | filling be sure that the kerosene il completely drained
 | Spark Plugs
 | We are occasionally asked if two three, or four point spark plug does no give a hotter and more satisfactory spark for igniting the charge in a gas oline engine. Our experieice, like tha of most manufacturers, indicates tha the number of sparks has little, if any thing, to do with the satisfactory serv. ice of a spark plug. Suffice it to sa! that the standard A-C Titan plug hal proven the most satisfactory. It doei not overheat or remain too cold. Tn, quality of the porcelain Is of the best The proper lengths for both six ant eight-cylinder Oldsmobiles are carried in stock the country over.

U nli uaited Faith I'm Tires lFutulre
 Big Development

From all parts of the country come reports from dealers heartily encouraging the stand taken by sev- eral of the more prominent manu- facturers against the definite mile age guarantee on tires, according to C. A. Fish of the Central Auto Sup ply company, representing the Mil IF Rubber company, selling tires on the basis of an unlimited guarantee.
 "The majority of dealers approve it," says Mir. Fish, "because they know that elimination of definite mileage guarantees means, in the end, better satisfied customers. In other words, the tire mileage guar antee for specified number of miles has passed it's period of usefulness.
 "As one dealer expresses it in Motor World, an automobile trade publication: Of what good is tire guarantee to a man with a blowout 25 miles from his dealers? What the tire user wants is tire that is always dependable-a tire on which he can get an adjustment at any mileage if it shows any faults in workmanship or construction.'
 "Another dealer hit the nail on the head, in the same publication, when he says: The real value of guaran- tee is demonstrated by the fact that dealers in seconds guarantee those seconds after an expert has marked them unfit to bear their manufac- turer's name-and in many instanc- es they are guaranteed to run as far as firsts.'
 "StiIl another dealer is quoted as follows: Every dealer in the busi- ness we'll knows that the mileage guarantee is the biggest hoax to the customer, the biggest nuisance to himself and everyone connected with the automobile business
 "With such strong anti-guaran- tee sentiment manifested by the dealers, it is easy to see how un- popular generally the definite mile- age guarantee policy is."

bearing. The drive shaft consists of a piece of shafting 34 inches long, bored out to fit over the end of. the crankshaft of the motor, and slotted to fit loosely into the front motor support.
 To attach the apparatus it is only necessary to remove the cap covering the crank hole, insert the shaft and bolt the supporting iron to the brack- cts (which are never removed) on the frame. Just back of the bearing is a thrust collar and washer which serve to keep the drive shaft connected to the motor. By using different sized pulleys person may develop whatever power may be required without any strain on the motor. In the picture, the pulley used to drive the saw is 12 inches in diameter. and the one on the saw shaft is five inches. It de- velops a speed of 1,S00 to 2,000 revo- lutionS per minute

DOG GUARDED DEAD MATE
(san Francisco Chronicle)


 A tragedy of two dogs ended the other day with one fine Airedale car ried off to the sanitary reduction works and her mate-name unknown, but splendid in lis breed and staunch in his fidelity-wandering disconsolably along Lincoln way, refusing to be ap- preached or confronted.
 Nobody knows who owned them. When Corporal Frank Lycett of the park police was riding his rounds in the morning. he found the pair by the roadside.
 Some speeding motorist had passed that way the night before and crushed the life out of the female. Her body lay close to the sidewalk.
 Crouching beside 1t was her mate. whining and sniffing at the dead. and trying, dog fashion, to arouse her.. When the corporal came along the lips of the living dog frightened back. his hair bristled and he snarIed.
 Corporal Lycett tried to coax the animal away. There was no tax tag on the dead dogs collar to identify it. The male dog would no allow him to approach.
 In such cases there is but one course for policeman to pursue. Lycett pur- sued it. He telephoned the sanitary reduction works, and its men came out and took away the dead dog. The guardian dog followed the wagon little way, and then abandoned the pursuit He went back to the place where his mate was killed, and tarried there. wandering about and whining.

HARD TO CONVINCE
TURK DEFEATED
DUE TO GOOD TREATMENT BY
FRENCH AND BRITISH

London, Mar 1.-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press. 1.-The
Turks are by no means convinced
that they are vanquished and show
lew signs OF regret that they were
ever the Allies of the Central Pow
ers, according to French cores
pendent who has returned from

attributes this failure on the part of
the Turks to realize their actual
situation to the fact that the Brit

Turkish capital have not acted like
conqueI0rs and imposed their au-
thority on the Turks.
The correspondent declares that
he was unable to convince the lead

OF the Allies and the definitve
crushing OF the German military
power and adds that this is due to
