there were seven punctures in one

CAR OWNERS in
FAVOR OF ROAD
BILL FOR NATION
Road Organization for High
way Progress Support
the Townsend
Bill.

Washington, D. C., Feb. 22.-"That
a preponderating majority of the
100000 passenger car and motor
truck owners of the country will
support the Townsend bill in the
Goth congress is practically assur-
ed" asserts President David Jane
SON of the American Automobile
association, which represents motor
lists generally in national organized
form.
Ever since the A. A. A., in jan
uary, 1912, called the first Federal
Aid in Roads convention in the
capital city, there has been a steady
and logical progress toward COM
prehensive participation in highways
betterment by the national govern
ment," according to Mr.. Jameson,
who then goes on to say:
"The explanation of this devel-
opment is exceedingly simple and
consists mainly in the fact that we
now utilize for passengers and
freight road vehicles which disre-
gard county subdivisions and state
lines. There must be distribu-
ton of highways authority among
the several subdivisions. In our.
own councils we have repeatedly
discussed the proposition that there
should be no smaller unit than the
county, which would mean county
roads, then state roads, and, finally,
federal roads,"

CARRIES BABY'S
SHOE IN RACES
JUST FOR LUCK
Eddie PuIIen Has Most Re-
markabIe Escape and
Gives That as the
Reason.

Eddie Pullen, vino will he relief
driver for Clifford Durant in the
500-mile Liberty sweepstakes on
May 81, has had some unique eX-
perience in his racing career.
Pullen is the only driver to have
won an American Grand prize race
with a car made in this country,
scoring in 1914 at Santa Monica
in a Mercer.
When Pullen won the Grand
prize he surprised the racing world.
Two days previously he had shaken
hands with death on what is known
as "dead-man's. turn" on the Santa
Monica course with the same Mer-
Ger, in the Vanderbilt cup race. The
car came into the turn too fast,
skidded and crashed through tie
fence after it blew a tire. To the
uninitiated it-looked like a hopeless
pile of junk.
Pullen and his mechanic were
thrown out but escaped bruises.
They towed the wrecked car to their
camp and started tearing it to
pieces. The morning of the second
day Pullen faced the starter and
romped home winner of the Grand
prize. He had found that the spi;.
had not damaged the engine and
that he could straighten the frame,
put in anew front and rear axle
and be ready to race. Photographs
taken of the car as it plunged
through the fence show that it was
at the same time one of the most
peculiar accidents, for the driver
and mechanic came through UNI
scathed when the pictures snow the
car seemingly ready to fall or
them.
Eddie always attributed his escape
to the fact that he was carrying
one of his baby's little shoes on his
steering wheel and from that day
to this he has never started a race
without it, Pullen got his training
with the late Hughie Hughes, who
drove the first wire wheeled race
car in an Indianapolis 500-miie
event, his Mercer entry of 1912, and
Hughie knew we'll all the tricks of
the trade. If Clifford Durant turns
the wheel of his Chevrolet special
over to Pullen during the race the
fans will see spectacular driving,

Storage Batteries Wear
Out Just Like Tires

"The storage battery" says Elmer
Rosengren of the Nebraska Storage
Battery company, rs just as liable
to wear out as tires, ard like the
tire, it must be given careful at
tention by the owner if the longest
possible life is to be given it.
"A storage battery is chemical
apparatus, consisting of positive
and negative lead plates immersed
in electrolyte, a solution of sui
phuric acid. When the starting
motor is used or the lights or
ignition system put on the circuit,
certain electro-chemical actio1
takes place between the positive and
negative plates in the presence Of
the electrolyte and electricity flows
through the wires.
"As this chemical action con-
tinues the character of the plates
change, the current will, ultimately,
cease to flow and the battery is
dead. This condition, however, is
forestalled by the generator cats
ing the current to flow in the OPP
posite direction, or to charge" the
battery"

Cole AerO-Eight Enters
Season of Great Demand

Introduced at a time when the in
terest of the whole country was
focused not on its own personal
needs but the demands of the ma
ton at war, the Cole Aero-Eigh!,
which made its debut in January,
1918, was given its first real chance
to exert its influence unhampered
on the American automobile market
with the automobile shows this
year.
And to say that the results have
been gratifying, according to the
officials of the Cole Motor Car COM
pany, its builders, is putting it
mildly.
Both at Chicago and New York
the sales of Aero-Eights made at
the show exhibits more than
doubled the aumber ever before
made by the Cole dealers at these
two points, despite the fact that
both of these events we're local and
not national shows as in years past.

the race eliminated in the final heat

race came near the end aud the two
Saxon cars were, so to speak, go

found his place very popular after

of Siam crowded around his show

cars which had won first and sec

RAJ STRIKE
IS THREATENED
IN MANHATT TAN

AH' hORNhc JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wlREl
New York. April 1S.-A strike II
all the trades unionists in the
boroughs OF Manhattan and Brooklyn
was theatened late today unless pri-
vate boat owners make reasonable
concessions to their men in an effort
to end the strike of the Marine Work
ers' affiliation.
The declaration that general
strike was imminent was made by
Edward |. Hannah, president of the
Central Federated Union, which in
cludes all the trades in Manhattan
after a conference at the city hall
presided over by Mayor Hylan, at
which the armstice granted by the
harbor workers was extended another
twenty-four hours. The truce was
prolonged to give the mayor another
opportunity to confer with private
boat owners regarding acceptance Of
an arbitration offer made by their
employees
Leaders of the Marine Workers
affiliation declared that unless the
mayor was successful tomorrow in
his effort at Cancellation the threat
ened strike designed to paraIyze COM
pleteiy all traffic in the harbor would
begin at 6 a. m. Sunday. The main
point of dispute is the question of
hours. The workers demand a basic
eight-hour day while the boat owners
insist on twelve-hour day. Mayor
Hylan has suggested nine hours as a
compromise pending arbitration of the
entire question by board of nine
members as proposed by the unions
simultaneously with the threat of
general strike came the announce
mont that Paul A, Vaccarelli had
been removed as vice president of the
International Longshoremens' associa-
tion at meeting of the executive
council late today.
