The United States Government
Standard Specifications
for Gasoline

The United States Government standard
specifications for gasoline are based on boiling
points-not gravity. Drafted as they were by
impartial Government experts, they are gener-
ally considered, in the light of conditions today,
as the most practical standard for gasoline.
They insure an efficient and satisfactory gaso-
line and at the same time have due regard for
the best utilization of our petroleum resources,
and the maintenance of reasonable prices to the
consumer.

storage by evaporation would be great. There
must be just enough low boiling points to va

boiling points are necessary for quick accelera
ton, high power and long mileage.
AS combustion starts with the lowest boiling
points and flashes on through the gas, the con-
tinuous chain of boiling points from the low

]. E. Robinson, of Garrard
county, to the judgeship Judge Har-
din will necessarily vacate if he goes
to Congress.
Saufey has always been Beckham
man. Aligned with that faction of
the party as he was, he advocated in
strong terms the nomination of Gov.
Stanley for the United States Senate,
not only for the long term but for the
short term, which the republicans gra-
ciously permitted George B. Martin to
serve without objection when they
might have thrown him out after cleo
tion day, as well. Saufey, recalling
the factional fights that had rent the
democratic party in Kentucky, paid
tribute to the generally recognized
high ability of the Governor in the
field of legislation, how well he was
equipped for. that kind of work by his
long and active service in Congress
In the election he gave the Governor
loyal support and his friends say that
while Gov. Stanley may favor Judge
Hardin for the nomination, he car
hardly go out of his way to figh'
tSaufiey.

Almost Agreed
(By Associated Press)

Paris, April 3-The French idea on
the peace treaty and other matters,
are gaining ground, according to Me-
tin, which indicates that an under
standing has been almost if not en-
tirely reached.
Regarding financial demands to be
made on Germany, the Echo De Paris
says the Council of Four believes that
Germany may be able to pay imme-
diately six billion to the French in
money, while deliveries of raw mater
ial and manufactured goods from
Germany will reach an undetermined
sum, which some optimists estimate
at thirty billion francs.

QUESTION OF
HELMS SUCCESSOR
And Method of Making Democratic
Nomination Is Being Discussed
By Various Newspapers.

Several newspapers have recently
had mention of possible candidates for
the democratic nomination to fill the
vacancy in Congress from the 9Th dis
trict caused by the death of Hon. Har-
vey Helm, which may be of interest
here. The Cincinnati Enquirer's po-
litical column from Kentucky said
Sunday:
1t has not been determined whether
the democratic nomination for Con-
gress in the Eighth district, to fill the
vancancy created by Representative
Harvey Helms death, will be made
by convention or by primary, but if it
is by convention, there will, on the
basis of one for every 200 votes or
major tractor thereof, cast at the last
presidential election for democratic
electors, be 113 delegates from the II
counties, as follows: Adair, 9; Ander-
son, 8; Boyle, IL; Casey, z; Garrard,
Z. Jessamine, 81; Lincoln, 12; Madison,
IT; Mercer, IL; Shelby, Is; and Spen-
Ger n. Shelton M. Saufey, of Rich
mond, was in Lexington Friday night,
and said he had visited Shelby, Spen-
Ger, and Adair counties and that he
felt good over his chances. Judge
Charles A. Hardin is regarded as GER
tain to make the race, as is John K.
Todd, of Shelby county. This would
make highly interesting triangular
fight, though it is likely that others
may enter.

COMMITTEE ON STREET
IMPROVEMENTS RETURN
Party Back From Cincinnati After
Trip In Interest of New Streets
and Sewers.

Mayor Evans and party consisting
of T. K. Hamilton, R. E. Turley,, VIM.
O'Neil, C. T. Terrill, J.. J. Greenleaf,
returned today from a trip to Cincin-
natl, where they went to investigate
the matter of the new street improve
ments for the city of Richmond. Their
main purpose in taking this trip was
to view some methods Of street work
that was being done in Cincinnati, and
to secure a competent engineer to pre-
pare plans ad supervise the costruc-
tino of the streets. While they did
not make final selection, they were
much benefited with their trip and
learned great deal about the manner
in which the various streets are laid
to suit the requirments of the heaviest
traffic.
While in Cincinnati, Mayor Evans
|consummated a deal whereby heloaned
enough of the money realized on the
bonds to pay back to the city some
thing like 81, 900 or $1,500, and will do
away with the expense of paying the
interest on the money while awaiting
the work to commence. This commit
tee is very anxious for the citizens of
Richmond to express their views on
the street improvements and the col
umns of the Daily Register are open
to anyone who wishes to comment on
this public issue.

voked the alleged confscatory DEGREES

Frankfort, KY, March 22-Shelton
M. Saufey, editor of the Richmond
Daily Register, and Chairman Charles
A. Hardin, of the State Central and
Executive Committees, who is also
Judge of the circuit court for the Mer-
observation-disclosures district.
will be the candidates for the demo-
cratic nomination for Congress in the
Eighth district to succeed Harvey
Helm, who died few days before the
beginning of the terms to which he
was elected last November. Which
ever is nominated is certain to be
elected at the special election to be
called by the Governor when he gets
good and ready to call it.
The method of nomination depends
upon the district committee. This
committee is composed of the demo-
cratic county chairmen of the counties
of Adair, Anderson, Boyle, Casey,
Garrard, Jessamine, Lincoln, Madison,
Mercer, Shelby and Spencer. Six of
the eleven district committeeman can
can refer the matter to the voters of
the district. Because of the expense
of primary in the eleven counties, it
is extremely probable that the COM
mittee will make the nomination un-
less political exigencies develop which
make it advisable to hold primary.
Friends of the Richmond newspaper
man, who formerly owned-a paper at
Stanford, in Lincoln county, and who
is widely known all over the district
as in fact, he is widely known all ovei
the state. say that in primary he
would win easily.
And it is said that the friends Of
Gov. Stanley will do theil, best to put
Judge Hardin over.
Hardin Stanley's Choice
1t is stated that Governor Stanley
who has the reputation of standing b.
his friends when they need him, re
gardless of identity, wants Judg'
Hardin nominated for two reasons
First, he desires to reward loya
friend, and Judge Hardin has been ;
loyal friend, by sending him to Con
gress. Besides that, he wants to re
ward another loyal friend, accordin.
