Washington, May 2.-The de-
termination of President Wilson,
indicated in press advices from
Paris, that no American troops
shall continue on German soil for
longer period after the signing
of the peace treaty than may be
necessary to embark them for
home, is borue out by present

stated that the estimates were
based on "troop withdrawal to be

surplus will be needed"
This computation was taken to
reflect exactly the present infor-
nation sof the department as to
future troop movements.

In order that q SUFFICIENT quantity will
be vaporized and mixed with the air
drawn in through the carbureter to
form an explosive mixture.
Condensation takes place as the gas
passes from the mixing chamber OF
the carbureter to the combustion
chamber Of the engine with the result
that an over-rich mixture must be
formed primarily. IT'S like running
with the choke valve closed. and It
has the same effect on the miles per
Gallon average.
The remedy Is. IL your car hasn't q
thermostatic control in the water
system, to use a cover over the
whole or part Of the radiator.
Don't BE . Clutch Rider.
Another fault in driving which
uses up gasoline unnecessarily is
habitual clutch riding or driving
continually with the foot on the
clutch pedal. By doing this you in
tentionaIly or unintentionally are
more or less constantly disengaging
the clutch and permitting the car
to slow down and the engine to
speed up. The worst of the practice
