German Housing
 Conditions Are
 Cause of Concern

Cologne, Nov. 22:-Newspapers from the interior of Germany paint a gloomy picture of housing condi- tions in German cities. They say that families expelled from the occu- pied areas, for one reason or anoth- CT, and from Silesia and East Prus- sia, wander inland and have greatly increased the congestion in the cit ies. Steps have already been taken in several cities to introduce compul- sorry auartering. Unless the hous- ing situation improves immediately. the newspapers say that this method of housing the homeless will have to be resorted to.
 The lack of housing facilities, par ticularly in the occupied areas where the troops are quartered, has been critical for months. In Hol- stein, and Frankfurt on Main. and even Berlin the shortage of buildings is complained of by the newspaper writers. In Cassel, just beyond the British occupied zone, six thousand families are reported in need of proper housing facilities for the winter. In Cologne work was start ed last summer to build accommoda- tions for the poorer people and, ow- ing to this fact, the requirements here are not so great as in other cit ies of the occupied territory.
 In Coblenz, headquarters of the American forces in Germany, the shortage of dwellings, has reached such a stage that the city govern ment recently appealed to Berlin for aid. It is proposed to build 300 frame houses as soon as possible to care for Coblenz residents whose homes have been requisitioned or people who have otherwise virtually been made homeless.
 Coblenz is particularly crowded owing to the fact that it is the seat of the Inter-Allied Rhineland high commission. which is to be the gov erning body when the treaty of peace becomes effective. Hundreds of civilians connected with the va rious allied missions having brought their families to the city. For months the city officials have been cooperating with the American bill eting offices in an effort to utilize every available room. apartment, house or hotel in Coblenz and its suburbs.

man who said he was "prince Friederich of Hohen7ollern" and a brother of the former emperor.
 The visitor registered at hotel as Gustavus Cyrus of Berlin. He wrote to the former emperor at Bentinck castle. demanding an in terview on important family mat ters." The police were informed and investigation revealed that the man had in some way actually reached Holland from Germany the night be- fore without any papers to identify him, and he was speedily sent back over the frontier.
 When the exiled monarch first came to Amerongen the village was visited by many persons who were mentally unbalanced. Among them one man who said that he was the King of England, and tried to prove it.

 Answer: Evidently your engine hisses explosions, under the above hentioned conditions and we suspect
 hat the low-speed adjustment of Jour carburetor is wrong and. that lou get too lean or too rich mix |ure If the spark-plugs blacken, the |atter is most likely and if they do lot, it is the former. Readjusting the |arburetor should correct this defect, bnless the ignition is at fault or the htake is not sufficiently heated. If Fhe clutch band snot worn too thin br burned, dressing it with neats-foot ,il may help. If there are springs un- Ter the leather and they have lost heir strength, they will have to be 'eplaced. A strict observance of the ldjusting directions furnished with arburetor, is the best way of secur- ng satisfactory results, but no car- 'uretor will operate to best advant- .ge on present-day gasoline, un> ess the intake is we'll heated and his was not always provided for in 914 cars.

POSSIBLY A FUEL FEED
 TROUBLE.

|, II. E: A. writes: I am having trou- Die with the carburetor on my ear. l have cleaned it thoroughly, put lind that it sometimes fails to reed entirely. particularly when I op- en e the throttle suddenly, in pulling a nii. If l let the accelerator back and feed gas gradually, it does not bother. Occasionally the engine stops completely. Can I install a
 carburetor in place of it and make the control connections all right?
 Answer: There is nothing in this carburetor to get out of order, ex- cept the Aoat-feed mechanism. Are you absolutely sure that the float valve opens reliably, when the gaso- llne level in the foat-chamber falls

pensating-jet carburetor and there are some very small passages within it, upon which it's action depends. Are you perfectly sure that these are free? There are no adjustments for changing the mixture quality and, if you are using much heavier gaso- line than formerly, it may be neces- sary to replace your jets with larger ones, as this is the only means of changing the mixture. It is possi- ble that you are blaming your carbu- retor for a defect in the fuel-feed system, that prevents sufficient gas oline from reaching the float-cham- Der and you better make sure that the flow of fuel is not interferred with. If, in ordering a new carbure- tor. you furnished the manufacturer with full details as to the make and model of your car, he will furnish you with a carburetor, which should be capable of attachment with very little trouble.

ENGINE IS STIFF, WHEN HOT.

W: R. B. asks: What causes the crank-shaft of my Ford to tighten up,
 after running about an hour? AL though there is plenty of oil in the case, if the engine runs idle for two minutes and then stalls, I cannot turn It over for five minutes, when it cranks easily. 7 Answer: If your engine has re- gently had it's bearings taken up or new .plstons or rings fitted, this trou- ole IS readily accounted for. The parts expand from heat and fit so t.lghtly that the oil is squeezed out rom between the bearing surfaces ana, they bind. By using the engine moderately and letting it cool at snort iintercals, the bearings and pis- tons should wear to an easy fit, be- lore long, without any damage re- sultlng. If, however, you have not just had the engine overhauled, you should examine the lubricating sys- 1em, making sure that the dippers on the connecting rods are all right ana that no oil holes in bearing caps nave become stopped up. In fact, you better have competent me- chanlc make an inspection before any serious damage is done.
 SILENT CHAIN IS NOT SILENT.
 [. B. K. writes: My car has de- Veloped loud grinding noise. which seems to come from the chain that aaflVes the generator. How can this De stopped?
 Answer: Probably the fastenings or the motor generator have loosen ca sufficiently to permit it to change US position slightly, thus throwing t!lhe the chain out of exact alignment with JUS Sprockets or tightening it exces- slv!,ely, either of which conditions VIII make it noisy. By removing the cham housing, you can apply a straight edge to the driving sprocket ana as see if the chain lines up with it. II not, the location of the generator must be carefully altered until it ooes. When the adjustment is con- pleted, there should be about one half inch up and down slack in the ! cham, at a point midway between spfockets. Be sure that the genera tor IS securely locked in its new To- eatlon, before leaving it.
